Sole is a family-run guest house located in Gattinara, in Piedmont, surrounded by the hilly area that gives its name to the well-known DOCG wine. The property offers guests a well-kept garden, a terrace and entirely non-smoking spaces, ideal for those seeking a relaxed stay away from city bustle while remaining close to the area’s main transport links.
The rooms, all with private bathroom featuring a shower and hairdryer, offer air conditioning, flat-screen TV with cable channels, an electric kettle and free toiletries. Some room types offer a pleasant garden view, others overlook the inner courtyard, still guaranteeing a good level of comfort and quiet.
The location makes it possible to reach the centre of Gattinara within a few minutes, with bars and restaurants such as Il Cortile dei Frati or Mulligans Irish Pub just a few hundred metres away. The reception staff are always available for advice on excursions, wineries and nearby visits, making Sole a practical base for exploring the Vercelli area and the surrounding valleys, among vineyards, historic villages and Milan Malpensa Airport less than thirty kilometres away.
Sole’s offering includes three room types, all measuring 16 square metres and designed for two guests, sharing a private bathroom with shower, bidet and hairdryer, air conditioning and a flat-screen TV with cable channels. Each room is equipped with an electric kettle, complimentary toiletries and linen provided by the property, ensuring a practical stay even for those staying just one night.
What changes from one room to another is mainly the bed configuration and the view: options range from two solutions with single beds, which differ in their view, to the room with a large double bed overlooking the inner courtyard. The choice between the three options therefore depends mostly on bed type preferences and the desired view, while the level of amenities remains consistent throughout the property.
This twin room is the only one, among the three available, that overlooks both the garden and the inner courtyard, offering a double perspective on the property’s outdoor spaces. Tiled flooring, air conditioning and a private bathroom with shower complete a room designed for two travellers who prefer separate beds.
Compared to the Double/Twin Room, this version with single beds offers only a garden view, without the courtyard outlook. Same 16 sqm size and same basic amenities, with private bathroom, shower and electric kettle for tea or coffee in the room.
The only room with a large double bed among the three available, ideal for couples who prefer a single bed rather than two singles. Overlooking the inner courtyard, with private bathroom featuring shower and bidet, air conditioning and tiled flooring, this compact yet functional solution completes the offering.
Sole offers guests a garden and a terrace to relax in, as well as free on-street parking that is particularly appreciated by those arriving by car. The property is entirely non-smoking and provides daily housekeeping, private check-in and check-out, and a 24-hour reception for any needs during the stay.
All rooms are air-conditioned and feature a private bathroom with shower, bidet, hairdryer and complimentary toiletries, as well as a flat-screen TV with cable channels and internet connection. An electric kettle is also provided to prepare tea or coffee directly in the room, a practical detail for guests who want more independence.
For guests’ safety, there are smoke alarms, a carbon monoxide detector and key access, while the availability of family rooms makes the property suitable for small groups or families visiting the area as well.
