Stone Charming Villa 150 sq.m, 6 km From The Beaches, SPA, Gorgeous BBQ Area

What makes this special is the chance to rent both this house and Villa La Maclura—adjacent but completely separate—at the same time. A rare opportunity (but not an obligation!) in Liguria, a region that is not very flat and doesn't have many large open spaces because it's squeezed between the sea and the mountains, but it's full of stunning locations. Our property is one of these. So, friends and family can all gather—only when they choose—to fully enjoy this corner of paradise with all its wonders. Just like us during family times.
The recent restoration of the house has been a labor of love, focusing on reusing materials such as stone discovered under the old plaster, original terracotta paving, and chestnut wood for the ceilings. This unique blend of materials, combined with our meticulous attention to detail, creates an unforgettable, charming atmosphere. You'll always find tranquility in the house despite its proximity to downtown and distance from the summer bustle. The house is part of the private Borgo, with its first documented history dating back to 1522, and is nestled on the grounds of an ancient castle. It consists of three country houses: Villa la Maclura, Il Gombo, and a private house for our family. Each house features a pool, garden, chill-out area, BBQ, entrance, and parking space. The villa boasts three bedrooms, two bathrooms, one lounge, one lounge-diner, one smaller lounge/bedroom with total privacy, one large kitchen, and one utility room, spread over two levels (150 sq m). The villa's ground floor and first floor are exclusively for guests. At the same time, my husband, Riccardo, and I will stay in the attic of this house from time to time, but especially during the high season, to provide you with steady yet discreet assistance with all your needs, including garden maintenance, pool monitoring, irrigation, and appliance maintenance.
We recently installed air conditioning in the south bedrooms on the first floor for your comfort. The north bedroom has a large, elegant ceiling fan with wooden blades. We have also fitted all bedroom windows with mosquito nets to ensure a peaceful and undisturbed sleep.
Outside, you'll find a BBQ on the terrace garden at the ground floor level, perfect for al fresco dining. There's another BBQ in the large garden below, just a stone's throw from the private (exclusively for you) SPA. The outdoor area is fully equipped with comfortable garden furniture, inviting you to relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.
PLEASE NOTE
*Due to technical reasons, bookings between March 31 and May 17, 2026, must be made seven days in advance.
*Villa La Nicchia is part of a single property, the ancient Borgo of the family castle; it includes three detached but nearby houses and is 5.5 km from the center of Alassio. You can reach it via a typical Ligurian road with two lanes and multiple curves, except for the last 1.2 km, which is narrower due to the terrain.
*The SPA, a private and relaxing feature, is generally unavailable from late October to late March/mid-April because the heating pump cannot warm the water to 30° if outside temperatures are below 15°, especially at night. However, we encourage you to ask about the current status, as climate change and recent unusual weather patterns may influence SPA availability in spring.
*Reading and observing the house rules are part of the rental agreement. You will receive both before your arrival.
*We are flexible on many matters, especially regarding the two additional fees you pay as you go. One is the additional fee for good LPG heating (1), which we cannot estimate in advance. We will calculate the consumption together on the morning of departure; the cost is likely to be around €5.50 per m³.
The other concerns the final cleaning fee (2), which is not shown in the website payment summary because it depends on the number of guests and the number of nights stayed. The minimum fee is €100, and the maximum is €160, payable on the morning of departure. The Tourist Tax is €1.50 per person per night. For your information, the Alassio Municipality has decided that tourist tax payments are only accepted from the property owner, not via any booking platform.
*Check-in is available from 4:00 p.m.; check-out is by 9:30 a.m.
