La Traversina is an 18th-century rural residence surrounded by chestnut and oak forests, offering an intimate and well-kept retreat far from the hustle and bustle. The garden, filled with scents and colors, guides guests through a landscape of roses, honeysuckles, lavenders, irises, and hostas, with views that change with the seasons and summer nights illuminated by the glow of fireflies. The tranquility is complete, broken only by the sounds of nature and the reflections of the pool overlooking the green hills. The interior spaces retain the character of the manor house: antique furniture, family heirlooms, books, and travel mementos create elegantly simple environments designed for those seeking a relaxing stay. The rooms in the main house and the three apartments converted from old barns and stables maintain an authentic spirit, each offering a terrace or a private garden with views extending to the Alps. The decision not to accommodate families with children stems from the desire to maintain the serenity that defines this place. The garden is one of the most emblematic features: hundreds of varieties of roses, irises, and hostas coexist with numerous rare species. The small nursery allows guests to purchase plants grown directly on the agriturismo, while throughout the year, gardening and cooking courses are organized for those who wish to delve deeper into these passions. Rosanna and Domenico welcome guests like old friends, alongside their large family of animals. The atmosphere of togetherness is also reflected in the meals served on the veranda with views of the woods: hearty breakfasts and fixed-menu dinners, available on select evenings, are prepared with ingredients from the farm or local producers, inspired by Ligurian and Piedmontese traditions. La Traversina is located in the hills near Stazzano, not far from Novi Ligure and Gavi, regions known for their wines, chocolate, and exquisite cuisine. The Borbera, Curone, Grue, and Ossona valleys offer routes through nature, villages, and landscapes that mark the borders of four provinces. The agriturismo provides free parking and a shuttle service to Arquata Scrivia station, making travel without a car convenient. Whether for a weekend or a longer holiday, La Traversina is a place to slow down, savor every detail, and be welcomed into a small corner of paradise that has been cherished by the same family for nearly three centuries.
