Eat well, move & slow right down

A restored 1800s wine estate in the hills of Monferrato: home-grown food, vineyards to wander in, and the rhythm of a genuinely good life.

Feel-good fuel

The simple recipe for a good life

Grow it, cook it, walk it off, then sit back down for more. Cascina Blon runs on the oldest recipe there is: real food, being outside, good company and time that finally slows to a stroll.

Out in the hills

Move & play

Walk or cycle the two kilometres into Nizza Monferrato for dinner, then wander home through the dusk with a gelato in hand. Beyond town: vineyard treks, free bikes, horseback rides and truffles come autumn.

Grown & cooked locally

Eat from the land

You might not want to eat out every night, so the kitchen is made for cooking, with produce from the local markets and, soon, our own garden. Olive oil, veggies and hazelnuts come from the land around you.

Time to just be

The good, slow life

Put the phone away. This is a place for long games at the table, a stack of books, an early morning run through the vines or a ride into the hills. Take a dip in the pool while the kids vanish into the little forest playground.

Welcome

Elegant, yet like coming home

Welcoming and refined while staying comfortable and familiar, Cascina Blon makes every guest feel at home. The estate spreads across roughly three hectares of parkland, vineyards, meadow and olive grove.

It is the perfect base for slow weekends, wine tasting, cycling through the hills, and gathering around a long table with the people you love.

Our story

A different life

In 2026, we, Heleen & Gert Jan, went looking for something different, and found it here. We bought Cascina Blon from Kalle & Evi, who looked after the old farmhouse so lovingly before us, a care you can still feel in every room.

We take a modern view of it all, shaping a place around Heleen's motto “Feel Good Fuel” and the simple idea of a healthier, happier life. Alongside the B&B we make our own wine and olive oil, cook with vegetables from the garden, and tie it together with an active, outdoor life.

A note on the name

Our cascina is named for the Belloni family it once belonged to, a name Nizza Monferrato still honours. In 2024 the town dedicated a piazza to Arnaldo Belloni, the printer whose Editrice Tipografia Moderna ran clandestine papers all through the Resistance: a local story of lead type and liberty.

And a family of printers would have known the rest. The name sits a breath away from Jacob Christoph Le Blon, who in 1725 invented colour printing itself, proving that every colour the eye can see is born from just three: red, yellow and blue. A press in the family and a name like Le Blon: we don't believe that was an accident.

“Painting can represent all visible Objects, with three Colours: Yellow, Red, and Blue.”

Jacob Christoph Le Blon, Coloritto, 1725
