Bastia Mondovì suits a villa stay in southern Piedmont with Mondovì's old town and the Cuneo area close by. Most homes here have a private pool, a garden and air conditioning. The commune is small and scattered over many hamlets, so you will drive for everything.
Bastia Mondovì is a small commune in the province of Cuneo, about 294 metres up, bordering Mondovì, Carrù, Cigliè and Clavesana. It is made up of a long list of small hamlets rather than one compact village, and the homes are spread across the wider countryside, so check where a house actually sits. There is no sea or lake to speak of, which is why the pool matters here. For an evening out, Mondovì is the nearest proper town, with its oldest quarter, Piazza, linked to Breo by a funicular. Mondovì has cold winters and rainy springs and autumns, so the pool is a summer feature.
Neighbouring town with a Gothic main square, a cathedral, medieval walls and a funicular between Breo and Piazza.
A Baroque sanctuary in the Mondovì area, an easy addition to a day in the old town.
The city about 30 km south-west of Bastia Mondovì, an easy target for a longer day out by car.
Turin, about 70 km to the north, is the nearest large city; the drive to Bastia Mondovì takes around 55 minutes. A car is essential. By public transport the same trip takes over two hours, by train to Mondovì and then a bus, and buses are infrequent.
Summer is when a pool earns its keep, and Mondovì has warm to hot summers. Spring and autumn are rainier but easier for sightseeing in Mondovì's old quarters. Winters there are cold, so a hill stay then is a quiet, indoor one.
Yes for a quiet, car-based stay in southern Piedmont. Bastia Mondovì borders Mondovì, which has the old town and the funicular, and sits about 30 km from Cuneo. Most homes here have a pool, but there is no village centre.
Bastia Mondovì is in the Province of Cuneo in Piedmont, about 70 km south of Turin and about 30 km north-east of Cuneo. It adjoins Mondovì, Carrù, Cigliè and Clavesana, so the postal address matters when you book.
Not in the usual sense. The commune is a scatter of hamlets rather than one village, so shops, restaurants and sights mean getting in the car. Mondovì, next door, is easier on foot once you arrive.
Mondovì is the obvious first stop: a cathedral, a Gothic main square, medieval walls and a funicular to the old quarter. The Baroque sanctuary of Vicoforte is close by, and Cuneo is about 30 km away.
