Everything you need to know
La Castella is an eco-sustainable farmhouse estate set within a 20,000-square-metre centuries-old park in the Monferrato hills of Piedmont — a UNESCO World Heritage wine landscape just a short distance from Turin. The property is surrounded by forests, lavender fields, and the rolling vineyard-covered hills that make Monferrato one of Italy's most beautiful and least crowded wedding destinations. With a panoramic barn, converted stables, an Italian garden, a wine cellar, and woodland clearings for ceremonies beneath ancient elms and oaks, La Castella offers remarkable flexibility starting from just €3,700 for exclusive venue hire.

La Castella — wedding venue in Villafranca d'Asti, Piedmont
The estate sits in the Monferrato hills, part of the UNESCO World Heritage landscape of the Piedmontese vineyard hills. The centuries-old park, with its ancient elms, oaks, and pine forest, has been maintained as an eco-sustainable property committed to harmonising celebrations with the natural environment.
La Castella's eco-sustainable philosophy extends beyond marketing — the farmhouse, its grounds, and its approach to hosting events reflect a genuine commitment to working with the landscape rather than against it.
