Royal Park I Roveri
Offers one of the strongest combinations of prestige
Royal Park I Roveri offers one of the strongest combinations of prestige, urban accessibility and golf quality in the Turin area. Set within La Mandria Park, it benefits from a noble and orderly natural setting, yet its value goes well beyond the address itself: the courses carry real sporting weight and enough versatility to appeal both to regular members and international travelers. The overall structure is broad, elegant and aligned with contemporary standards, with an atmosphere that is less ritualized than older legacy clubs yet still distinctly refined. It performs particularly well for business stays, high-level weekends and Piedmont itineraries that want to include Turin without sacrificing serious golf. The luxury here feels functional and cosmopolitan, closer to the efficiency of major modern clubs than to the aristocratic romance of nostalgia. For many guests, that is exactly the appeal: the ability to play well in an authoritative setting with very little friction.

Exclusive Experiences
Secrets found in no guidebook, curated by our concierge.
Reggia di Venaria — Appartamenti Quieti
Venaria Reale is one of Europe's grand Savoy residences, yet it still has corners that seem to escape the burden of monumentality. Endless galleries, pale rooms and perspective gardens make it the natural cultural extension of a day at I Roveri.
“Skip the main route and head for the Diana Apartments in the last hour of the afternoon: the raking light makes the palace feel less like a museum and more like a real residence again.”
Torino — Vermouth in Salotto Storico
Turin has the gift of feeling aristocratic without ever becoming stiff, and a properly served vermouth in a historic salon says it better than many formal dinners. After the fairways of I Roveri, it is a natural way to extend the Savoy rhythm of the day.
“Order a straight vermouth before any cocktail and sit by the windows, not the bar: in Turin, the most believable luxury is almost always the kind that feels like habit rather than performance.”
Parco La Mandria — Giro all'Ora Dorata
The great park surrounding the Savoy estate has a rare quality: it is vast and composed, yet still able to feel almost wild in stretches. Walking there at sunset after a round at I Roveri feels like a decompression session guided by the landscape itself.
“Enter from the quieter Druento side and keep an easy pace: deer often appear precisely when the park begins to empty and silence starts to take over.”
La Credenza — Cucina Piemontese d'Autore
Just a few kilometers from the club, tucked into the Canavese hills, La Credenza is where Piedmontese cuisine stops being tradition and becomes vision. Giovanni Grasso and Igor Macchia work the land with near-obsessive precision: every dish is an act of fidelity to the ingredient, not the trend. Two Michelin stars earned without fanfare, in a village that has no desire to be found.
“Book the table by the garden window and let them choose the path — the tasting menu they'll build for you isn't on the website.”
Canonica di Vezzolano — Pietra e Silenzio
On the Monferrato hills, among vineyards and oak woods, the Canonica di Santa Maria di Vezzolano rises like a Romanesque dream that mass tourism forgot to find. Founded in the 12th century, its cloister with interlaced arches is among the most intact in Piedmont — and yet you often arrive to find it almost entirely empty. The silence here is of rare quality: not an absence of sound, but the presence of something else.
“Come on a weekday late afternoon: the raking light across the rood-screen carvings is one of the most quietly beautiful things within 40 minutes of Turin.”
Castello di Rivoli — Barocco e Avanguardia
An unfinished Savoy palace that time recast as the perfect stage for contemporary art: Pistoletto, Koons, and Cattelan coexist with seventeenth-century frescoes in a conversation that couldn't happen anywhere else. The tension between ancient stone and visual provocation is the museum's true masterwork. Minutes from Turin, yet entirely removed from the tourist circuit.
“Come at Tuesday opening: the rooms are nearly empty and the morning light over the Rivoli hills slants in through the tall windows.”
Lago di Candia — Acqua Ferma nel Canavese
A glacial mirror set among the Canavese hills, Lago di Candia is a nature reserve that seems to have slipped outside the last century: reed beds, grey herons, the Alpine profile reflected in the still morning hours. It isn't spectacular in any obvious way, but it is the kind of place that stays with you. The Erbaluce vines that ring it add another layer of meaning.
“Walk the northern path at dawn: low mist on the water and silence are guaranteed; tourists are not.”
