Area city center
Govone is a small Piedmontese town of about two thousand inhabitants located in the geographical region of Roero, on the border with the Asti Monferrato and the hills of the Langhe.
The historic center of Govone develops all around the Castle, a medieval stronghold rebuilt in the eighteenth century, the temporary home of the young Jean Jacques Rousseau in 1730 and a majestic Savoy residence from 1792 to 1870. The Castle of Govone is, together with some of the twenty-three Savoy residences of Piedmont, Unesco World Artistic Heritage since 1997. The building can be visited every Sunday from March to October, while the gardens and park are always open and freely accessible.
Thanks to a deep-rooted wine culture and extraordinary natural landscapes shaped by man according to the cultivation of vines, since June 2014 the wine-growing areas of Langhe, Roero and Monferrato have been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Some of the finest Italian wines are produced from the grapes that come from this protected site, such as Barolo, Barbaresco, Asti Spumante and Barbera d'Asti.
The natural landscape of the Langhe, Roero and Monferrato is equipped with numerous paths which, in a complete immersion in the green, lead to panoramic terraces with spectacular views.

Lovely place and highly recommendable, ideal for exploring Alba, Asti, and the nearby villages of Langhe / Piedmont. Modern and new rooms, tastefully decorated with ample storage space. Unfortunately, it does not have air conditioning, which is absolutely necessary in summer. The breakfast picture on the web does not correspond to the actual breakfast, which is self-service in the room.

Our host Vittorino was fantastic! From arrival to departure we were treated as family. The suite was renovated and clean, the shower was amazing! All of the furniture was comfortable and in new condition. We loved the location, great for food and wine. I highly recommend Agorà B&B. We will be back.

We had an excellent stay in Govone, a charming village. The host took the time to give us details about the area while offering us a welcome drink. The breakfast is varied with local products and homemade pastries. The room is very clean, nicely decorated, and has a lovely bathroom. We can only recommend this place if you are looking for a little corner for a few days of "bella vita". Thanks to our host for this stay.

Mr. Vittorino, the manager of Agorà B&B, welcomed us with a welcome prosecco and explained very pleasantly everything that can be done and visited in two days in the Langhe. The structure is located in the center of Govone, right under the castle. The suite is very pleasant in its decor and colors, clean with every comfort. I highly recommend staying in this corner of the Langhe, in 15/30 minutes by car you can immerse yourself among vineyards and hazelnut trees and breathe the essence of this magical place.

There is no better hospitality and attention. We had wonderful days at B&B Agorà and in Piedmont. Vittorio is a wonderful host who took a lot of time immediately after our arrival to explain everything to us in Govone and in the surroundings. His tips on pleasure (wine and food) are excellent and very helpful. His sightseeing in the surroundings is also great and makes the start of the holiday very easy. The breakfast served by Vittorio is fantastic and a great start to the day. There was a very rich buffet with cold cuts, cheeses, jams, fruit, homemade cakes, and freshly brewed espresso or cappuccino. Really great and so loving. The guesthouse is well located. There is an enoteca just around the corner. Great for a quick drink or snack. Everyone is also super friendly. In addition, there are three great restaurants (from pizza to almost gourmet cuisine) nearby without the need for a car. All in all, a great package, but above all we would like to thank Virrorio once again for the wonderful hospitality. This is truly unique. Thank you for the great time.

Camera spaziosa, arredata con gusto e completa di tutto.
Accoglienza impeccabile e una cura dell'ospite che ti fa sentire subito a casa.
Abbiamo soggiornato in occasione della manifestazione Il magico paese di Natale e la posizione strategica del B&B ci ha permesso di godere al massimo dell'atmosfera.
Un grosso grazie al gestore.
