B&B AL BRIC

We had a wonderful stay at this charming B&B set on the hillsides outside Turin. The manager was friendly and did everything she could to accommodate our needs. The rooms were cool and spotlessly clean. The temperature outside was baking hot and, although there was no air conditioning, we could open the windows behind the safety of mosquito mesh, and enjoy the cooling countryside evening air and sounds. The beds were comfortable. The views from the windows were breath taking and the B&B itself has a quaint courtyard setting with all rooms facing into it. Breakfast was brought to our rooms, hot Italian coffee, hot milk, orange juice, croissants and toast with butter and jams, and a yoghurt.

The only downsides were that the gate to the property was locked and there was no clear signage that we had arrived. We were in some doubt as to whether we were at the right location or that the B&B was open. Note to future bookers - outside the gate there is a buzzer. It may take a few minutes to get an answer while you are parked on a narrow hillside road. I would recommend to the management of the B&B that the outer gate is left open during check-in hours.
