Il Girasole is a family-run guest house located in Strevi, Piedmont, among the hills of Monferrato and the vineyards of Alto Piemonte’s wine region. The property features a well-kept garden, a common room, a panoramic terrace and free WiFi throughout, ideal for those seeking a peaceful stay away from city chaos, immersed in the Piedmontese countryside.
The three room types, all 20 square metres, are equipped with air conditioning, private bathroom with courtesy set and hairdryer, flat-screen TV with satellite channels and soundproofing. Some units overlook a private terrace with garden view, others also have a balcony, offering solutions suitable for both couples and small groups of up to three people.
Guests can rent bicycles to explore the surrounding hills, use the free private parking and relax in the picnic area. Genoa-Sestri Airport is about 38 km away, while Strevi railway station is just over a kilometre away, convenient for those arriving by train.
Il Girasole offers three room types, all around 20 square metres, designed to adapt to different needs while maintaining consistent comfort standards. Each unit has air conditioning, private bathroom with courtesy set and hairdryer, flat-screen TV with satellite channels and a good level of soundproofing that ensures rest even during the central hours of the day.
The main differences relate to capacity and outdoor spaces: the Budget Double Room with Single Beds is designed for two people with separate single beds and a terrace overlooking the courtyard, the Budget Double Room offers a large double bed with a balcony overlooking the garden, while the Basic Triple Room combines a single bed and a double bed to accommodate up to three guests, always with a green outlook and private balcony.
This double room with two single beds is the only one in the property without a balcony, overlooking instead a shared terrace with a view of the inner courtyard and garden. Equipped with air conditioning, private bathroom, flat-screen TV with satellite channels and soundproofing, it is the most suitable option for those travelling as a pair without needing a double bed.
Designed for couples, this room offers a large double bed and, unlike the double room with single beds, a private balcony overlooking the garden. The unit is completed with air conditioning, private bathroom, flat-screen satellite TV and good sound insulation for a peaceful rest.
This is the room with the largest capacity in the property, up to three guests, thanks to the combination of a single bed and a large double bed. Like the double room, it has a balcony with garden view, as well as air conditioning, private bathroom and flat-screen TV with satellite channels.
Il Girasole provides guests with a garden, a terrace and a picnic area ideal for enjoying days outdoors, as well as bicycle rental for those wishing to explore the hills of Monferrato independently. The property also offers free private parking with reserved spaces for guests with disabilities, free WiFi throughout and a common room with TV area.
Additional services include a safe, daily cleaning service, ironing and laundry service on request, as well as a babysitting service designed for families with young children. The dining area includes an in-house coffee shop, fresh fruit and the possibility of having breakfast directly in the room, with a kettle and coffee machine available in every unit.
Il Girasole is located in Strevi, a small agricultural town in the province of Alessandria known for the production of Moscato d’Asti and set among the hills of southern Piedmont, a few kilometres from the border with Liguria. The setting is typical of the countryside of Alto Monferrato, with rows of vineyards, historic farmhouses and a slow pace of life, away from the busiest tourist routes but within a short distance of the area’s main towns.
The property is about 100 metres from the Il Girasole restaurant and just over a kilometre from Strevi railway station, convenient for reaching Acqui Terme and Alessandria by train. Visone station, an alternative on the same line, is 3.4 km away. By car, Genoa-Sestri Airport can be reached in about 38 km, while Cuneo-Levaldigi Airport is about 71 km away, useful options for those arriving from outside the region. The property’s free private parking makes it easy to get around to nearby locations.
The area is ideal for cycling enthusiasts: the surrounding hills offer routes through vineyards and small villages, with bicycle rental available directly on site. Not far away is Acqui Terme, famous for its thermal baths and Roman old town, a perfect destination for a half-day trip. In summer, the local wineries organise tastings of Moscato and Brachetto, while in autumn the harvest brings the countryside of Monferrato to life, a UNESCO World Heritage site since 2014, with events and festivals in the surrounding villages.
