Pian del Mund
Piedmont, Italy
High above the hills of the Alta Langa the Panoramic Houses di Cascina Pistone, a family-run retreat with rustic traditional chalets. The view stretches uninterrupted across the gentle hills to the Alpine range, with the majestic Monviso dominating the horizon. The three lovingly appointed wooden chalets offer warm, simple comfort and each features a private balcony, perfect for enjoying the sunrise and sunset over the landscape. Expansive green areas and quiet seating spots invite you to relax, linger, and simply breathe in the serene surroundings.
Directly from the property, hiking and cycling trails begin, including a section of the historic Via del Sale, with the 15th-century Borgomale Castle rising within view. A true highlight is the homemade breakfast served in the small chalet above the houses – on sunny days, it can also be enjoyed on the terrace with panoramic views. Guests are treated to fresh bread, focaccia, jams, seasonal produce, and the farm’s specialties: traditional raw-milk sheep cheese and the signature hazelnut cream made from the estate’s own nuts. Perfect for those seeking tranquility, nature, and authentic hospitality, Pian del Mund is a place you’ll want to return to again and again.
Location
The chalets are located in Borgomale, in the heart of the Alta Langa in Piedmont – a quiet, authentic part of the Langhe, just 25 minutes from Alba. The property sits on a sunny hilltop at 640 meters, surrounded by forests, pastures, hazelnut groves, and small vineyards, with unobstructed views of the Alpine range.
