WELCOME

We are an Italian-Brazilian family running a restaurant and a guesthouse in a recently renovated 1910 house right in front of beautiful Lake Mergozzo, in northern Piemonte. Since 2019 we promote Art, Bicycles and Cooking as a way of life by offering unique experiences inside our property and in the surroundings. Enhance your creativity on our workshops, explore mountains on our e-bikes, taste a creative cuisine made of local and South American flavours.

Most of all, make yourself at home!

art

Art is a gateway to experimentation. It is a way of seeing the world and, potentially, a way of changing it. Using a variety of spaces at the property and its surroundings, we explore the intersections between art and nature through Workshops, Residencies and Exhibitions. Check our art program.

bike

Cycling is the healthiest, most sustainable way to ride around.

We are passionate about cycling and will be thrilled to share that with visitors and guests.

We have bicycles for rent and offer cycling tours for all levels. Check the calendar for special cycling events and just enjoy the ride.

cooking

The kitchen is the heart of the house, it's where we share flavours, traditions and knowledge. Our menu is based on healthy, locally produced food to be enjoyed with friends and family. To go along with our convivial food philosophy, we offer a calendar of cooking classes and food tastings with the best of Italian wine.

about

PATRICIA

With a background in Architecture and a Fine Arts degree awarded in London in 2015, she is responsible for the interior design and curation of the artworks around the house. This website and other graphic design works on social media were also made by her. She cultivates a creative environment in the house by offering Art Residencies and Workshops as well as collaborations with artists and designers.

Parallel to the family business she keeps developing her practice, focusing in textile and botanic arts. Patricia is also interested in sustainability, healthy eating and mindfulness.

FELIPE

A cook and cyclist, sometimes a gardener and a handyman. Felipe never stops.

Before Casa Della Capra he was already running Bike&Food tours, guiding groups through beautiful landscapes and delicious food at its source.

His passion for Italian cuisine dates back to childhood, but it was only after he finished a degree in Economics that he attended ICIF (cookery school) in southern Piedmont. Previous experiences include working on the food and beverage sector, hosting a TV cooking show and as a personal chef.
