B&B Da Dodo’ is a bed and breakfast in Calizzano, a small municipality in the Savona hinterland, surrounded by the woods of the Alta Val Bormida. The property offers rooms with private bathroom, free WiFi and on-site private parking, ideal for those travelling by car who want to move freely between coast and mountains.
The available rooms share a simple, well-kept layout: both offer garden and mountain views, a terrace and courtesy toiletries in the bathroom, with small differences in size and features such as a bathtub or shower depending on the room type chosen. It is an accommodation designed mainly for couples, who in reviews particularly appreciate its quiet location.
The garden with terrace and barbecue area make the property suitable for those seeking an outdoor stay, perhaps as a base for excursions to Giogo di Toirano or to reach the caves and beaches of the Ligurian riviera, about 30-46 km away. Pets are allowed at no extra charge, a detail not to be taken for granted for those travelling with their own dog or cat.
B&B Da Dodo’ offers two types of Double Room with Garden View, both designed for two people and equipped with private bathroom, courtesy set, hairdryer and bidet. Each room has a large double bed, a terrace overlooking the garden and the surrounding mountains, and small comforts such as a kettle for tea and coffee and an indoor dining area. The proximity to greenery and the absence of city noise make the environment suitable for those seeking a relaxed stay in the countryside.
The two rooms differ mainly in size and bathroom type: a more compact version with shower and no balcony, and a 16-square-metre one that adds a private balcony and a bathtub. Since no extra amenities such as minibar or air conditioning are listed in the scrape, the offer relies mainly on the view and the shared outdoor spaces, such as the garden with barbecue available to guests.
This version of the double room overlooks the garden and the surrounding mountains, with an outdoor patio and a private bathroom with shower. It is the simpler of the two options, without a balcony, suitable for those looking for the essentials with a green view.
At 16 square metres, this is the larger of the two available rooms and the only one with a private balcony in addition to the terrace. The bathroom has a bathtub instead of a shower, a detail that makes it preferable for those who enjoy a moment of relaxation after excursions.
B&B Da Dodo’ offers an environment surrounded by greenery, with a garden, outdoor dining area and barbecue area available to guests who want to enjoy summer evenings outdoors.

All rooms have a private bathroom with bidet, courtesy set, hairdryer and bathtub or shower, as well as practical amenities such as a kettle for tea and coffee, a fridge and a dining area. Free WiFi is available throughout the property, as is heating and the possibility of non-smoking rooms.
Pets are allowed at no extra cost, an aspect that makes the property an interesting choice for those travelling with their own dog. There is also a hot tub, and the unit is wheelchair accessible, all on the ground floor.
B&B Da Dodo’ is located in a rural area of Calizzano, a small village in the Alta Val Bormida in the province of Savona, surrounded by the woods and hills of the western Ligurian hinterland. The hamlet of I Caragnetta, where the property is situated, offers a quiet setting away from traffic, ideal for those seeking a stay in close contact with nature without giving up the convenience of their own car.
The property has free private parking, an advantage not to be taken for granted in mountain areas. The nearest railway station is Bagnasco, about 6 km away, while those arriving by air can rely on Riviera Airport at 24 km or Cuneo-Levaldigi Airport at about 49 km. The Ligurian coast, with Marina di Alassio at 46 km and Baia dei Saraceni at 36 km, can be reached by car in about 40-50 minutes, making the B&B a convenient base for alternating between sea and mountains.
Nearby there are a few restaurants just a short drive away, such as Agriturismo Ca di Voi at 1.5 km and Pizzeria Ristorante Odissea at 3.4 km, useful for evening dinners. Hiking enthusiasts can head to Giogo di Toirano, about 8 km away, for walks through the Apennine woods. In summer the area is popular for the cool air offered by the altitude, while in winter the Savona hinterland becomes a starting point for trips to the Toirano Caves, about 30 km away.
