The Agriturismo La Casa dei Nonni is located in Castelbianco, a charming little gem in the Ligurian hinterland, recognized since 2008 as one of the "Most Beautiful Villages in Italy." Surrounded by woods, olive groves, and streams, it is the perfect spot for those seeking a vacation focused on relaxation and nature, with opportunities for scenic walks and outdoor activities.

Trekking enthusiasts can discover numerous marked trails that wind through the village and the entire valley, which are also suitable for mountain biking. Val Pennavaire, famous for its cliffs, is a popular destination for rock climbing, featuring walls for both beginners and experienced climbers. Meanwhile, the Pennavaire river provides chances for sport fishing in an unspoiled environment.

Just 15 km from the sea, Castelbianco offers easy access to the sandy beaches of Alassio and Laigueglia, ideal for relaxation or water sports. About a 20-minute drive away, the large "Le Caravelle" Water Park promises fun for the entire family. For golf and horseback riding enthusiasts, the Garlenda Golf Club, the Ippodromo dei Fiori, and two equestrian centers are just a short distance away, providing unique experiences amid sports and nature.

Approximately an hour's journey brings you to the renowned Genoa Aquarium, the largest in Europe, which is a must-visit. Nearby, you can explore medieval villages like Zuccarello and Castelvecchio di Rocca Barbena, or discover Albenga, with its captivating historic center dating back to Roman times.

Thanks to its strategic location, La Casa dei Nonni serves as an excellent starting point for day trips to the French Riviera, including Monte Carlo and the towns of Bordighera, Ventimiglia, and Sanremo, or into the Ligurian hinterland, where you can find picturesque villages like Dolceacqua, Apricale, and Pigna. Wine and food lovers will find the Piedmont region about an hour and a half away, offering opportunities to explore the Langhe, home to prestigious wines such as Barolo and Barbaresco.

A stay at La Casa dei Nonni is an experience that combines the charm of rural Liguria with proximity to the sea and some of the most beautiful locations in Northern Italy and the French Riviera.
