About this property

Romantic cottage in the vineyard, Pinerolo, only adults

The Ciabutin di Casa Aiva is the ideal place for nature lovers, for a relaxing holiday in an intimate and romantic cottage, overlooking the vineyard and with a wonderful view of the hills and the plain. The accommodation is simple and functional. Strategic point for visiting the region.
For adults only, not suitable for children and people with reduced mobility.
If you prefer more comfortable accommodation, or if you have children, you can choose Casa Aiva, on the same property.

Ciabutin means small country cottage, which was once used as storage for vineyard tools and shelter for animals.
The cottage is located on a hillside and overlooks the vineyard, which produces a good red wine.
The garden is unfenced. Southern exposure.

The house was completely renovated in 2013, respecting the original architecture and details. It is tastefully furnished with a romantic touch, ideal for a couple.
On the ground floor there is a lovely and original space with a kitchenette, and a cast-iron wood stove, which can also be used as a food warmer. Bathroom with large shower and window.
On the first mezzanine floor is the bedroom with two windows overlooking the vineyard.
Please note: the room is reached by a staircase not suitable for children or people with mobility difficulties.
The flat does not have air conditioning, as the summer days, even the hottest ones, are always pleasantly breezy and the climate quite dry, a condition that keeps mosquitoes quite far away (the windows are fitted with mosquito nets anyway).

Outside there is a large stone table, a barbecue, some deckchairs and a pergola under the vine, to enjoy the view with some shelter from the sun.

Private outdoor parking.
Bicycle shelter (on request).
Possibility of charging bikes and electric cars (extra charge).

We suggest you take advantage of all seasons for a walk in the surroundings and to enjoy the silence and relaxation of the area.
Between mid-September and the beginning of October, you can watch the grape harvest in our vineyard.
From June to August, you can use the house's swimming pool, which is shared with the guests of Casa Aiva (only adults, because during this period, the entire property is reserved for adult guests only, to ensure a relaxing atmosphere).
The pool is partially heated by a solar coil system.
Roman staircase with jacuzzi. Daily cleaning and maintenance.
Safety enclosure with fence and gate.
Pool dimensions: Width: 6m; Length: 12m; Depth: minimum: 1; maximum: 2.5m.
Outdoor shower, located in pool area, heated by solar panel.
Sunbeds and parasol.

Here you can taste Ciabutin red wine from the vineyard in front of the house and many local products.
We have an agreement with the "Il Punto a Capo" restaurant in San Secondo di Pinerolo and with the Made in Pinerolo association, which will allow you to organise your holiday according to your wishes.

We live in the house next door and are available for any information, but we respect the privacy of our guests.
If you wish, we will be happy to help you get to know the area, to suggest places to visit and activities to do according to your preferences. If you love food and typical products, we will be happy to recommend the best restaurants to suit your tastes!

We have an elderly dog, his name is Leo, and we always take care that he does not disturb our guests (during the day he normally stays in his garden).

There are certain values that have always been fundamental for us and that concern eco-sustainability, care for the land and quality products, preferably organic.

Here we have been able to turn some of our attention to the environment and health into reality:
photovoltaic system for the production of electricity;
solar thermal plant for the production of hot water;
electric charging facilities for guests' bicycles and cars;
rainwater and spring water collection tank;
coat cladding;
furnishings in natural materials;
organic cultivation of the vineyard and orchard.

We also have many relationships with local producers and offer our guests the opportunity to buy good, genuine, quality products directly from them.

Here you can find peace and tranquillity, recognise the richness of nature and reawaken your five senses, often drowsy from the hustle and bustle of daily life: sight, hearing, smell, touch and taste will benefit in every season from the pleasant sensations transmitted by this place.

Aiva means Water, like the precious spring on the property, but it also stands for Air - clean (we are 500 m. above sea level); Enchantment - of a panorama stretching from Turin to the Cuneo area; Holiday - relaxing, in contact with nature and in a sustainable environment; Agriculture - with wine, jams and honey.

The flat which is the subject of this advertisement is an accommodation rented exclusively for tourist purposes pursuant to Article 53 of Legislative Decree 79/2011 and not a "casa vacanze - holiday home".
During the tenant's presence, no additional services are provided such as, for example, change of towels and bed linen, cleaning, serving of food and beverages.
Any use of the name "casa vacanze - holiday home" on this website is not authorised or intended by the property.
On arrival, you will be asked for your identity documents for the registration of guests with the State Police accommodation service.

Charming And Beautiful

We loved staying in Pinerolo. The house’s charm, beauty and comfort was exceeded only by the kindness and generosity of its host. Everything was lovely, and perfectly thought through for the guest experience. And, along with their vineyard, they have a persimmon tree!

Schönes Haus in toller Lage

Das Haus entspricht der Beschreibung. Es ist ein sehr schön renoviertes Haus, abseits vom schnellen und hektischen Alltag, mitten in den Weinbergen. Die Gasgeber sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. In der Umgebung gibt es von Turin, Cuneo, Pinerolo, Sacra San Michele (Kloster), alte Festungen, usw. sehr viel zu entdecken. Die Gasgeber haben einen tollen Ordner zur Findung eines Restaurant bzw. eines Ausflugsziels erstellt. Die Anlage ist sehr gepflegt.

Ein traumhaft schöner Ort zum Verlieben!

Wir haben den kurzen Herbsturlaub in dem kleinen, aber feinen und originellen Häuschen in dem bezaubernden Weinberg sehr genossen. Barbara war eine charmante und immer hilfsbereite Gastgeberin. Das Häuschen war ein idealer Ausgangspunkt für Wanderungen im fantastischen Maira- Tal, für kleinere Radtouren im Pinerolese und Ausflüge nach Torino. Mille grazie, liebe Barbara!

Prachtig relaxen tussen de druiven

Leuke, kleine cottage op 5 meter afstand van de druivengaard alwaar de eigenaresse heerlijke wijn van maakt. Daarnaast prachtig uitzicht over de heuvels. Cottage is eenvoudig, schoon en knus. Pinerolo en san secondo zijn goed te bereiken vanaf de cottage. Zwembad is groot en schoon. Het zwembad ligt niet direct aan de cottage, maar is slechts een halve minuut lopen. Heerlijk verblijf, een echte aanrader.

Dépaysement garanti dans ce chalet au pied des vignes!

Vraiment très bel endroit. Ultra buccolique et original. Depaysement garanti. Tout est soigné et campagnard. Le jardin, la déco, la rénovation. Douche parfaite. Lit confortable. Seul bémol pour nous : le chalet est vraiment minuscule. Frigo tout petit, pas de place pour les vêtements car pas d armoire et pas de coin canapé confort pour se reposer en soirée. Mais au final, on s habitue a ce peu de place et on y est bien. Le plus : une hôtesse au grand sourire et à la vraie gentillesse qui fait tout ce qu' elle peut pour nous satisfaire et nous aider dans nos démarches sur place quand on ne connaît ni la région, ni la langue. Encore merci à elle pour sa disponibilité! Nous vacances ont été belles dans ce chalet et les vignes qui sont un vrai coin de paradis. Parenthèse réussie. Je vous le conseille!

Abgelegen und entspannend!

Unser Urlaub war sehr entspannt und hat uns viele Sorgen genommen und uns Zeit zu zweit geschenkt. Dafür eignete sich diese kleine abgelegene Hütte perfekt. Das Bett war nach einiger Zeit recht unbequem und sorgte für einige Rückenschmerzen, aber nichtsdestotrotz haben wir unsere Zeit dort vollkommen genossen. Sehr zu empfehlen für Paare, die gerne und viel Zeit miteinander verbringen und einfach mal abschalten wollen!

Bijzonder leuk huisje met uitzicht over de wijngaard en wijde omgeving.

Dit bijzonder leuke huisje staat op enkele tientallen meters afstand van de woning van de eigenaar. Mooi uitzicht over de wijngaard en de wijde omgeving. Op de achtergrond zijn de bergen. Vriendelijke en behulpzame eigenaar. Goed en praktisch ingericht, alles heerlijk schoon en sfeervol met de vele objecten die er zijn te bewonderen. De badkamer is helemaal up to date. De keuken charmant en de slaapkamer boven sfeervol. Buiten kan je onder de wijnranken pergola in de schaduw genieten van het uitzicht, aan een andere kant kan je in de avond genieten aan een grote stenen tafel van je eten en drankje. Iedere dag zijn we erop uit gegaan, want er is genoeg te doen in de natuur, De Langhe met zijn heerlijke wijnen, Pinerolo en andere stadjes. Iedere dag zijn we ook nog een uurtje in het zwembad geweest. De wijn van hun kleine wijngaard kan je bij hun kopen en is zeker ook de moeite waard.

Sehr gemütliches kleines Haus mit traumhaftem Ausblick und schönem Pool

Sehr schöner Ort zum Entspannen: Das Häuschen ist sehr gemütlich, es ist hier ruhig und man hat einen wirklich herrlichen Ausblick! In nur ein paar Minuten ist man in Pinerolo, was uns ebenfalls ausgesprochen gut gefallen hat. Hier kann man sehr gut essen gehen, Eis essen etc. Eine Mappe mit vielen gut beschriebenen Tipps gibt es in der Unterkunft ebenfalls, in einer Woche schafft man gar nicht alles was man sehen möchte. Der sehr gepflegte Pool ist ebenfalls ein absoluter Pluspunkt! Wir kommen gerne wieder und empfehlen das Häuschen gerne weiter.

Rust, prachtig uitzicht en een indrukwekkend achterland!

We hebben 8 dagen morgen genieten van de mooie streek Piemonte. Het is een klein huisje maar prima voor 2 personen:een fijne douche en voor de frisse avond een fijn houtgestookt kacheltje.Het uitzicht is prachtig!We hebben veel tochtjes in de omgeving gemaakt en eigen fietsen meegenomen.Vanuit het huisje is het wel stijl om te fietsen maar met de auto naar Turijn,5km voor centrum parkeren en dan fietsen ging prima.Mooie musea kastelen van de Savoyes,rustige dorpjes, lekker eten en drinken met een heerlijke temperatuur:wat wil je nog meer!Bij Barbara nog lekkere eigengemaakte wijn,appelsap en stroop gekocht als souvenir .Piemonte:een aanrader!

We spent the most wonderful week in Il Ciabutin! A beatiful place in an even more beautiful environment. Thank you Barbara and Family for offering us the opportunity to relax, enjoy the panoramic view and to explore Pinerolo and its surroundings. And thank you, too, for all the reservations you made and recommendations you gave - it was this that made the holiday so great! We are already looking forward to coming back to Il Ciabutin soon!

A calm haven in beautiful surroundings

A lovely cottage on the edge of the mountains with a wonderful view over the surroundings. The cottage was lovely and clean with all the necessities. (Bathroom is not pictured above but is lovely and modern with a very good shower!!). Barbara was very welcoming and there was lots of helpful information from Barbara and in the cottage about the local area and things to do. We were fortunate to be able to drink the wine from the vineyard we sat next to each evening and the pool was kept exceptionally clean and was a great facility to have. There were lots of towns and villages in the mountains to visit and we went to a high-ropes course and Tibetan bridge near to the French border which were great fun. There were two supermarkets near-by to purchase food as well as regular markets in nearby towns and a bakery in the local village. Overall it was a really lovely stay in terms of the location, the owners and the facilities. I would highly recommend a visit here..... Thank you Barbara!!!

Le top pour se déconnecter du monde

Ce petit chalet est juste génial pour se ressourcer, se retrouver et passer un moment romantique en couple! Le poêle à bois, le lit très confortable, le calme et et les petit déjeuners au soleil avec la vue sur la vallée. C'est parfait! Les propriétaires sont également très serviables et ils nous ont très bien accueillis. Nous recommandons vivement!

What makes this property unique

Come to experience every season at Il Ciabutin!
In autumn the colors of the hills and the mountains will surround you, you could wander in search of mushrooms in the nearby woods, gathering chestnuts, apples and persimmons, relax by listening to the tinkling of sheep which graze on our meadows.
Even winter has its own charm.. At Casa Aiva you could listen to the silence of nature that slowly falls asleep, you’ll watch the sun rise to the east and then enjoy its warm rays while below - in the plains - everything is shrouded in fog.
You also could easily reach the many ski slopes, enjoy the typical dishes in a pleasant retreat after a snowshoe hike and then relax in the heat of the stove in the living room, drinking a hot tea, a glass of our red wine or an excellent digestive of this region.
In springtime, since March, you could watch the awakening of nature, you’ll see flourish the five different varieties of our camellias, the magnolia put the first flowers of pink and fuchsia, soon followed by the green leaves. you’ll warm up to the rays of the sun warmer, stretch your legs and take relaxing walks among the markets and fairs in the spring and its thousands of flowers and colors.
The summer is pleasant because you will live intensely sunny days and agreeable weather of these parts, feel the sun getting stronger, but never suffer the extreme heat because here in the hills it is always slightly breezy. You could choose between a mountain bike ride, a hike in mountain lakes and breathtaking mountain peaks, a village festival in the name of culinary delights, dances and traditional games... have you never heard of square bowls?
And then, a dip in the pool, to relax and enjoy the sun setting behind the hill. Eating on the patio, watching the plains gradually light of so many lights and who knows... watch the fireworks organized by the various villages below. And lie in the field watching the fireflies flying around and shooting stars in the sky.
