Pinerolo

Pinerolo is a town in Piedmont, in north-west Italy, set on the plain at the foot of the Alps where the Chisone and Pellice valleys begin, not far from Turin. Its historic centre, long known as a cavalry town and a gateway to the mountains, gives it a settled, lived-in character with a mix of older apartments and family houses in the surrounding residential areas. Buyers and renters are drawn by the combination of a compact urban core, mountain scenery close at hand and everyday services within the town itself.
