About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Country house near sea, ideal for families and all outdoor activities.

Dear guest,
Zia Biancotta is a unique experience in Finale, a house built around 1500, isolated in the middle of the greenery, but a stone's throw from the sea and the cycling and climbing tourist itineraries.
Upon your arrival you will be welcomed by the host who will show you your accommodation in detail and illustrate the experiences you can have during your stay.
In the harvest seasons you will be able to see or participate in the grape harvest or olive harvest and learn how the wine and oil we produce is made, but also visit the honeybees’ hives and see how the honey is extracted.
Your host will always be at your disposal because he is a retired doctor who lives in the villa next door. He will also be happy to guide you to get to know the farm and taste its products.
For lovers of peace: you can enjoy relaxation by resting in the cool, in the green, dining outdoors under a pergola in the silence of the countryside after a day at the beach.
For sports lovers: those who have a bicycle will find it convenient to stay with us because in an instant you can reach the downhill meeting points or the most famous cycling routes. Upon your return you will have a large, well-equipped and safe room inside the house for storing equipment and bicycles, equipped with tools for small maintenance, and there is also a large outdoor area at your disposal for washing bicycles.
Those who love climbing are already close to the Rocca di Perti and a little further on find the cliffs of Pian Marino.
For nature lovers: the farm offers a cross-section of the Ligurian territory, with its terraces and characteristic vegetation. Starting point for excursions to the Rocca di Perti and other wonders of the Finale.
For sea lovers: you can reach it easily because it is less than 3 km away on a flat road.
By bike about 10 minutes. On request, a shuttle service from the house to the beach.

Lovely holiday in Finale

The property is well appointed just a short distance away from the bike uplift. It's perfect for couples/groups who aren't after the hustle and bustle and would rather keep to themselves. The cockerel at 4am each day was hard work as a light sleeper being the nearest room to them. No oven or TV just meant we had to be strategic about our shopping. Property was clean and communication with the owner was excellent.

Heaven on earth

I spent one month there and enjoyed every minute of it. Beautiful house, surrounded by even more beauty. The hosts were superior hosts. Highly recommended. Plus they allowed my dogs who were so upset when we left as was I. Spectacular gardens and they were so generous with their bounty.

Lovely Authentic Italian stay

We had a fantastic week in this beautifully renovated old Italian property. When we arrived, we were welcomed by Giovanni's son who showed us the stunning converted farm building with a courtyard with hill views. Giovanni was a very special and kind host who gave us many of his home grown tomatoes, peaches and plums, olive oil and delicious honey. He respected our privacy but also was very interesting to talk to about Italian life and the history of the properties. The accommodation was a 25 minute walk into the stunning medieval old town of Final Borgo and a further 20 minutes to the beach at Finale Ligure. I wouldn't recommend the walk back in full summer heat! Overall, a fantastic week which felt very Italian!

Beautiful home near the sea and Finalborgo!

Gorgeous views and stunning beaches nearby! We particularly enjoyed Varigotti and the quaint, medieval village of Finalborgo - so many wonderful restaurants and shops! We enjoyed the air conditioning in the bedrooms after a very warm day of exploring the area. Giovanni was a delight to work with. We can't wait to come back soon!! Thank you for sharing your beautiful property with us!

Wir waren 2 Wochen bei Giovanni zu Gast. Die Unterkunft war sehr sauber und ordentlich. Für unser Baby wurde ein Babybett zur Verfügung gestellt. Giovanni war ein toller Gastgeber, der uns mit Olivenöl, Honig, Tomaten usw. aus seiner Landwirtschaft versorgt hat. Wir durften auch selbst dort ernten. Die Unterkunft liegt sehr ruhig und Finalborgo und Finale Ligure sind in wenigen Minuten mit dem Auto zu erreichen. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt!

Traumhafte Ferien im Zia Biancotti

Wir haben unsere Urlaubszeit sehr genossen. Das Haus ist geräumig und praktisch. Die Klimaanlage hat gut funktioniert, zweiter Kühlschrank sehr praktisch. Besonders hervorzuheben ist Giovannis Gastfreundschaft und seine großzügigen Geschenke wie köstliches Olivenöl, Tomaten, Honig... Das Anwesen ist traumhaft schön und es gibt von dort aus sehr viel zu entdecken. Einzig unschön ist der Blick auf das nahegelegene Gewerbegebiet. Man sieht es aber nur von wenigen Fenstern aus.Danke an Giovanni und seine Frau für die schöne Zeit!

Erholsame Urlaub zwischen Bergen und Meer

Giovanni ist ein hervorragender Gastgeber: er empfing uns mit süßem Gebäck, Pizza und Focaccia. Auch mit selbst produziertem Honig und Öl wurden wir versorgt.Zitronen, die man komplett mit Schale essen kann, gab es im Überfluss.Irgendwann dann auch Tomaten und Pfirsiche.Das Haus liegt oberhalb eines großen Industriegebietes, von dem man nichts mitbekommt, wenn man sich im und um das Haus herum aufhält.Die Lage des Hauses ist ideal, um die Gegend mit dem Fahrrad zu erkunden. Man kann das Auto stehen lassen. In der Nähe gibt es auch zwei Supermärkte.Finalborgo ist am besten auch mit dem Fahrrad zu erreichen.Sehr angenehm waren die Klimaanlagen in zwei Schlafzimmern und in der Küche, da es aufgrund der Hitze sonst in dem Haus unerträglich gewesen wäre.Einzig die Matratzen könnten erneuert werden.Da man sich in der Natur befindet, können auch Insekten, Ameisen, Spinnen oder ähnliches ins Haus gelangen. In der Küche muss man darauf achten, welche Lebensmittel man offen liegen lässt. Insgesamt haben wir uns bei Giovanni und im Haus sehr wohl gefühlt und können die Unterkunft wärmstens weiter empfehlen.

Nice old House with everything you need

We had a very nice time in this house. The equipment is simple but good. The location around is great, 20 minutes by feet to Borgo, 10 minutes to the next Restaurant or supermarket, 5 Minutes with the bike to the shuttlepoint. The host is a very nice and polite Person, we got some self made wine and honey, which was very delicious.

Great New Year in Finale

We had a very pleasant stay in Giovanni's house. Giovanni is a super nice host who gave us a warm welcome and made our time to a great pleasure. We enjoyed the winter sun in the morning for breakfast. The only reason for not giving a perfect score is that the old house from 1500 is difficult to heat up when is getting cold outside. Thanks to Giovanni for the good time.

Giovanni hat uns sehr freundlich empfangen. Wir fühlten uns sofort zuhause. Die Einrichtung ist perfekt - alles was man braucht ist vorhanden. Das Haus wurde sanft renoviert, so dass der authentische Charme des historischen Hauses bewahrt blieb, was uns sehr gefällt. Die Lage ist ideal. Das Haus ist sehr ruhig gelegen. Gleichzeitig ist man in wenigen Minuten am Strand und in schönen und belebten Orten wie Finale oder Finalborgo. Die Lage ist ideal zum Klettern, Biken, Wandern usw. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Zia Biancotta

Giovanni was a very kind host and we enjoyed our stay very much (although the weather was quite bad). The house is nicely located at a green hillside with a huge garden/agriculture area around. By car you are at a supermarket or in Finalborgo or Finalmarina in minutes. By foot you can walk up the mountain to a nice restaurant "Antica Osteria" or to hike/climb around Perti mountain. Below the house is a (rather ugly) industrial area, but you do not notice it in the house or from the terrace. The actual house is the middle one of the three buildings on the pictures. It is an old house, but everything is fine and well equipped (no cooking oven though). Only criticism are the mattresses which are quite worn out and may not suit everybody.

A week of biking with friends

The stay in this house was really pleasant! A warm welcome by Giovanni gave us a great start of our holiday. This charming house with a 15th century first floor has all the services you need as a biker. It’s equipped with a bike stand and cleaning spot! The location, just outside Finalborgo (35 minute walk) surrounded by quiet wine yards and grapes, was perfect to us.

What should I say, for us it was perfectly. You live in the very nice old farmhouse a bit outside but near enough to enjoy finale.

Urlaub im Paradies!

Zia Biancotta ist das wahr gewordene Paradies. Das von uns bewohnte Haus ist unglaublich liebevoll eingerichtet und bietet jeglichen Komfort. Es liegt direkt vor dem Haupthaus inmitten des traumhaften Grundstückes, auf dem man alles an Gemüse und Obst findet, was man sich vorstellen kann. Giovanni ist ein wunderbarer Gastgeber, sehr zuvorkommend und hilfsbereit. Bei unserer Ankunft wurden wir bereits mit landestypischem Gebäck willkommen geheißen und freuten uns dann zum Abschied über eine Auswahl der fantastischen Produkte des Hofes. Wer Ruhe und die Nähe zur Natur sucht, ist hier bestens aufgehoben. Die Lage ist auch perfekt für Ausflüge und in 10 Autominuten findet man den ersten Strand. Ich war mit einer Freundin und meinem Hund, der ebenfalls herzlich willkommen war, für einige Tage dort und wäre am liebsten noch Wochen geblieben. Vielen Dank Giovanni für die wunderbare Zeit!
