Description

Property Summary

Nestled on a hilltop in Montelupo Albese, in the heart of the Langhe region of Italy, Villa Tramonto Albese is a charming and thoughtfully restored holiday rental that offers guests an extraordinary retreat surrounded by one of the world's most celebrated wine landscapes. Once a modest ciabot, a small rural construction traditionally found among the vineyards, this property was historically known as "Little London" after an elderly London artist who retired here following the war to pursue his painting. Today, it has been lovingly transformed into a refined and welcoming villa that blends rustic character with modern comfort. The property enjoys a privileged panoramic position overlooking the Langhe, Roero, and Monferrato territories, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2014, where the iconic Barolo and Barbaresco wines are produced and where the Alpine arc, with its highest peaks clearly visible on the horizon, frames the landscape in breathtaking fashion. The villa is set within a fully fenced garden of approximately 1,200 square metres, lush with plants, flowers, laurel hedges, lavender bushes, herbs, fruit trees, and roses, creating a serene and private outdoor sanctuary. A generously sized swimming pool takes centre stage in the garden, positioned directly in front of the furnished veranda and complemented by sunbeds for relaxed sunbathing. Complimentary Wi-Fi is available throughout the property, and ample parking is provided both in the gravel area near the main entrance and in the large garage below, which is accessible from Via Ballerina and equipped with an electric car charging point.

Outdoors

The outdoor spaces of Villa Tramonto Albese are among its most captivating features, offering guests a seamless connection between the natural landscape and the comforts of the villa. Upon entering through the main gate, a gravel parking area leads to the portico and the main entrance, beyond which the expansive lawn unfolds around the swimming pool. The pool measures 10 x 4 metres with a constant depth of 150 centimetres and is fitted with a resin cover. A cascading water jet, hydromassage jets, and an outdoor hot and cold-water shower invite guests to spend long, leisurely hours alternating between sunbathing and swimming. The pool's salt system ensures effective and natural water purification. The pool is non-heated and is open from the last Saturday in April to the first Saturday in October. Sunbeds are arranged around the pool area, transforming it into a private solarium. On either side of the garden, laurel hedges, lavender bushes, aromatic herbs, fruit trees, and roses frame the space with colour and fragrance, surrounding a tool shed and leading to a stone walkway that descends to the lower, sloping section of the garden, where a small vine has been planted as a tribute to the surrounding territory. The 360-degree panorama visible from the garden is truly incomparable, and the colours of the sunset, which inspired the villa's very name, offer a breathtaking spectacle that changes with every season. Please be aware that the photographs of the property were taken in spring, meaning that the blossoming of flowers and the colour of the garden's grass may differ from what you observe upon arrival.

Unit Layout

Villa Tramonto Albese accommodates a maximum of 4 guests across a well-conceived and intimate interior layout that makes the most of every space. The villa features 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, distributed across a thoughtfully arranged floor plan. Entering through the main door, you are welcomed into an open-plan living area that combines a fully equipped kitchen, a dining table, a comfortable sofa, and a television, creating a convivial and relaxed atmosphere for the whole group. From this central living space, a hallway leads into the sleeping area, which comprises a double bedroom and a twin bedroom with joinable beds, offering flexibility to suit different guest configurations. The 2 bathrooms are both fitted with showers and serve the sleeping area with ease. A utility room with a washing machine completes the private quarters. From the living area, a French window opens directly onto the furnished veranda, which overlooks the garden and pool, providing a natural extension of the interior living space. From the garden, a flight of steps descends to the large garage below, accessible from Via Ballerina, where cars, motorbikes, and bicycles can be parked, and where an electric car charging point is also available.

Amenities Included

Villa Tramonto Albese is equipped with a comprehensive range of amenities designed to ensure a comfortable and convenient stay for all guests. Air conditioning is installed in all bedrooms as well as in the living area, providing a cool and pleasant atmosphere during the warmer months. When temperatures drop, heating is available to keep the villa warm and welcoming. The kitchen is fully equipped for self-catering, and a dishwasher is provided to simplify daily routines. Laundry needs are easily managed thanks to the washing machine located in the dedicated utility room. The villa also features a private patio in the form of the furnished veranda, which serves as an elegant and sheltered outdoor living space directly connected to the interior. Guests travelling with pets will be pleased to know that animals are welcome at the property, subject to prior authorisation from the owner, who must be informed in advance of the number, size, and breed of the animals. The rental rate includes utilities covering water, gas for kitchen use and hot water, and electricity, as well as weekly linen changes and both an initial and a final cleaning of the property.
