Borgata Cantone Country House B&B is a non-hotel accommodation in Garlenda, in the Ligurian hinterland just a few kilometres from Alassio, combining traditional double rooms with suites and independent villas featuring a private pool. The complex occupies a restored old rural hamlet, surrounded by olive trees and hills, about 37 km from the Baia dei Saraceni.
The simpler rooms offer a garden or mountain view, air conditioning and a private bathroom with courtesy set, while the larger options, such as the three-bedroom apartment or the villas, include a full kitchen, terrace, barbecue and access to the pool and sauna. Breakfast, served every morning, offers Italian and buffet options.
Outside, guests will find a garden, sun terrace, picnic area and bicycle rental, ideal for those who want to enjoy hiking or cycling in the Ligurian hinterland. The location, between the hills and the sea of Alassio, is especially appreciated by couples, who have rated it 9.5 for a romantic stay. Suitable both for those looking for an intimate room and for large groups seeking a villa with an exclusive pool.
The range of accommodations at Borgata Cantone Country House B&B covers very different needs, from the classic double room to the independent villa for large groups. The double rooms, about 24 sqm, overlook the garden or the valley and share air conditioning, a private bathroom and a flat-screen TV. Moving up the categories, there is the 42 sqm Suite with a balcony and lounge area, and the 75 sqm three-bedroom apartment, designed for large families thanks to a full kitchen and multiple sleeping areas.
At the top of the offer are two independent villas, one of 200 sqm and one of 300 sqm with a private pool for exclusive use, a sauna and a fireplace, able to accommodate up to 8 and 15 people respectively. All the larger options retain a garden or mountain view, a terrace and a barbecue, differing mainly in size, number of bedrooms and the presence of a private pool.
The most compact of the double rooms, directly overlooking the property’s garden. It has a private bathroom with shower, air conditioning and a patio, and is the only one among the double rooms to pair a single bed with the double bed, making it comfortable for a third guest as well.
The same size as the room with garden view but overlooking the valley and surrounding hills, with a private bathroom fitted with a bathtub or shower. Designed for a couple, it offers a patio, terrace and air conditioning in a more intimate setting compared to the property’s family-oriented options.
Nearly double the size of the double rooms, this 42 sqm suite adds a balcony overlooking the inner courtyard and a separate lounge area with a sofa bed, making it the most suitable option for a family with children or two couples sharing the space.
The property’s first true apartment, with a full kitchen, three separate bedrooms and a view over the pool and garden. Compared to the Suite it doubles the space and adds a sauna and dishwasher, making it the ideal choice for large families who want to handle meals independently.
The largest option in the entire property, with six bedrooms, five bathrooms and a private pool for exclusive use shared by no other unit. The fireplace and sauna also make it suitable for off-season stays, while its capacity of up to 15 people makes it ideal for large groups or family events.
More compact than the Villa with Private Pool but still featuring three bedrooms and four bathrooms, this 200 sqm villa favours extra-large double beds and an indoor dining area, making it the most balanced choice for those seeking the space of a villa without the maximum capacity of the largest property.
Borgata Cantone Country House B&B offers guests an outdoor pool, a large garden with sun terrace, a picnic area and barbecue, as well as a bicycle rental service for those who want to explore the Ligurian hinterland. The property also organises walking and cycling tours, lessons on local culture and horse riding, while those looking to relax can enjoy the sauna, Turkish bath, hammam and body massages.
Each accommodation has a private bathroom with complimentary toiletries and a bathrobe, a kitchen or kitchenette with coffee machine, refrigerator and microwave, as well as air conditioning and a flat-screen TV with streaming service. There is an on-site bar with the option of breakfast in the room.
For those travelling by car, an electric vehicle charging station is available, while those arriving by plane can request an airport shuttle for a fee. Daily housekeeping and laundry service round out an offer designed for both short stays and longer stays.
Borgata Cantone Country House B&B occupies a rural hamlet in the Garlenda hinterland, amid olive groves and hills just minutes from the Alassio coast. The area retains an agricultural and quiet character, with the Church of San Bartolomeo 3.4 km away and the Sanctuary of Nostra Signora della Guardia 3.7 km away, both testimony to the local religious heritage. Within a few hundred metres there are already some places to eat, a sign of a small, well-served community despite the rural atmosphere.
For getting around, Riviera Airport is just 2.4 km away, while Genoa-Sestri Airport, reachable via a paid shuttle organised by the property, is about 71 km away. Alassio’s railway station, useful for those arriving by train, is 6 km away, as are the city’s sandy beaches. Il Frantoio restaurant, just 400 metres away, and Bar Pizzeria 500, 600 metres away, allow guests to dine out without straying too far from the property.
Those staying here will find something to enjoy both in winter and in summer: in the warmer season, the proximity to the sea of Alassio invites days at the beach, while all year round the hinterland is suited to hiking and cycling, with the Lerrone-Valloni forest less than 2 km away and a golf course within 3 km. There is no shortage of guests who choose the area for the quiet of the Ligurian hills, away from the coastal traffic but within a few minutes’ drive of the beach.
Guests especially praise the staff’s hospitality, rated with top marks, and the cleanliness of the facilities. The comfort of the rooms and the quality of the stay relative to the price are also highly appreciated. Couples in particular point to the location between the hills and the sea as a distinctive strength.
