Meet Raoul

The story

Enjoying the nature of Piemonte

Proud owner of Casa Mumu, a biologist and passionate lover of the wild orchids that grow abundantly around the house. Over the past few years, Raoul has worked hard to make the house and its surroundings even more beautiful.

The house used to be a simple farmhouse for growers who cultivated grapes on the terraces. A number of mulberry trees also stood here — "mumu" in Piedmontese — hence the name Casa Mumu. Now it's a beautiful villa, with a lovely pool and a wonderful base for long walks, wildflower hunts, and visits to the best restaurants. And where the vines once stood, olive trees now grow, which will hopefully yield many litres of olive oil in the years to come.

"Piemonte is so beautiful, and Casa Mumu is such a lovely house. It's wonderful to read a book in the garden, take a swim, hop on a bike or go for a long walk — and then enjoy a fantastic meal at a small local restaurant. I thoroughly enjoy the nature around the house."

— Raoul, owner of Casa Mumu
