Location & what to see

Albergo Real Castello occupies an ancient castle and two annexes in the centre of Verduno, a small village overlooking the Langhe hills, a UNESCO World Heritage site for its Piedmontese wine-growing landscape. The area around the main square retains a rural atmosphere, with vineyards as far as the eye can see and historic wine cellars just steps from the property’s entrance.

Just 30-50 metres away are several local restaurants, such as Casa Ciabotto, Cà del Re and Trattoria Dai Bercau, convenient for dining without having to travel. The nearest railway station, Santa Vittoria, is about 3.4 km away, while Alba is 10 km away and Bra can be reached in about 15 minutes by car. Those arriving by plane can use Cuneo-Levaldigi Airport, 26 km away, or Turin Airport, about 61 km away; using your own car is nevertheless recommended, as the area is not served by frequent public transport.

The Langhe offer numerous ways to fill your days: Cavour Castle, about 5 km away, and the Il Cedro del Libano nature park, 3.6 km away, are among the easiest destinations to reach. Those who enjoy physical activity can choose between walking or cycling along the trails among the vineyards, while adventure enthusiasts will find Sferisterio and Le Ginestre, adventure parks located 5 and 9 km away respectively. In autumn the area comes alive with grape harvests and truffle-related festivals, while in spring and summer the Langhe landscape offers vivid colours ideal for walks and outdoor tastings.

Casa Ciabotto — a typical restaurant just steps from the village's main square 30 m
Cà del Re — a local trattoria serving traditional Langhe dishes 50 m
Il Cedro del Libano — a nature park with centuries-old trees and scenic trails 3,6 km
Cavour Castle — a protected historic site set in the Piedmontese hilly landscape 5 km
