We proudly welcome LGBTQ+ guests

Italy is largely a gay/LGBTQ+ friendly destination with thriving gay communities in the major cities, but travel outside of these and some travellers may think they will be less welcome in more rural towns and villages.

We’ve been travelling to Italy for over 25 years and lived in Italy since 2017 and we’re pleased to say that we’ve never come across any prejudice or awkward conversations (apart from at one well-known five-star hotel in Venice of all places!) .

We’re proud to offer Villa Menaluna as a safe space for LGBTQ+ guests, from which to explore the beautiful region of Piedmont. Our local towns and villages offer the warmest hospitality in its many restaurants and bars, as well as at the countless wineries waiting to introduce you to Italy’s finest wines.

So, be Proud. Come to Piedmont.
