Just outside the city of Alba is a magical place, an ancient and authentic Langa farmhouse where harmony with nature and a love of conviviality find their highest expression.
Choosing to spend your stay here in Langa means enjoying rural and family hospitality: there are Elisa and Enrico, companions in life and adventure, their little Carmen cheering you up with her stories.
You might meet friends, uncles, and neighbors who frequent the farmstead feeding the spirit of sociability and friendship typical of Convivio.
In short, informality is the added value here, and peppers and bagna cauda are preferred to country chic.
Attiglio is the name of the centuries-old lime tree that provides coolness and shade during lunches, literary jam sessions, and mornings of activities with the children.
An art project interrupted due to the pandemic is now ready to resume. The Convivio park is filled with works of art depicting animals and human figures made from recycled materials. The sheet metal snake is the first completed work.
The Restaurant
Fully savor the simplicity of tradition in an authentic and genuine setting
A micro-restaurant, as they like to call it, with a fixed menu as it once was, varying each season according to the availability of raw materials, some self-produced, such as saffron for example.
You’ll find bottled house wines, excellent home-grown Nebbiolo, and a small, ever-changing wine list to taste new products all the time.
It often happens that at the end of lunch or dinner, the tables start interacting with each other, and the dinner immediately becomes convivial, the essence of this place: informality and sharing.
The dishes are what you might expect from a Piedmontese friend who invites you over for dinner and gives you a treat by showing off his grandmother’s secret recipes.

The Rooms
Three rooms on the second floor with spectacular views of the inner garden
The cottage has three rooms and an apartment, ideal for indulging in a relaxing break between the beauty of nature and the warm welcome of a family.
Convivio’s philosophy enhances country life, and this is reflected in the decor of the rooms, which are simple yet cozy and have all the amenities.
There is no TV in the room by choice, guests can find books scattered in every corner of the facility, and there is a rich library always open.
The farmhouse also has a ground-floor apartment with a separate entrance and kitchen, which can be used and is also ideal for guests with disabilities.

Activities and events
Special experiences for tourists and little ones in the area
The facility offers to contact instructors for yoga classes or arrange bike tours, and of course, if you are here to taste wine, recommend the best wineries in the area.
In warm weather, the Convivio is home to Literary Jam Sessions organized by the Milton Bookstore, evenings when various writers and artists meet to compare notes, read or create something together, an exchange that has everything poetic about it.
In contrast, the Convivio Selvatico (Wild Banquet) is an extraordinary summer project that offers preschoolers the opportunity to enjoy a variety of outdoor activities in the summertime.
During the experience, children engage in a variety of activities, take care of a small garden to harvest vegetables for meal preparation, and participate in a drama workshop and yoga classes with certified teachers.

Bike tour
Grazie alla collaborazione con Treenest, azienda specializzata nella realizzazione di rifugi sugli alberi, è stato realizzato un piccolo parco giochi nel bosco, dove i bambini adorano trascorrere il tempo
During the Convivio Selvatico experience, the children try their hand at building a base camp with logs and branches. This is followed by the lighting of a fire in safety to cook lunch food, the lighting of a wood-burning oven and the preparation of bread
An educational and fun experience that fosters creativity and the development of social skills
