Pet-friendly holiday rentals in Borghetto di Vara

We had a great time at Caterina’s place. 6 of us stayed there and was great to all have our own bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms. The house and gardens had plenty of space to mingle together or to spread out and do our own thing. The location was so peaceful and the views incredible. Not great if you struggle with walking uphill and there are lots of steps to and from the train station and village. Although there is a shuttle bus. Was great to visit all the Cinque Terre towns but not to stay in the hustle and bustle. Great stay and can’t thank Caterina enough, it is a beautiful place to stay!

Beautiful accommodation in a splendid location! A caring and very kind host! The bedding is super comfortable and the accommodation is as shown in the photos. Breakfast is awesome! You can go there without a second thought!

Everything went very well, Lola welcomed and accompanied us, the contact went very well. The village is beautiful and the location of the apartment by the water is very relaxing. The small terrace overlooking the sea was very pleasant. We hope to be back very soon.

Cinzia's place is as described, there's really nothing missing! The view is great and the exteriors too (even if the rain didn't allow us to enjoy it). For us the access by car was a little difficult at first, but once the help was taken it was easier. (the path is suitable and in very good condition) The village of Bonassola is full of charm, and the surroundings really beautiful. Access to the 5 lands is very convenient and easy with the train. Communication with Cinzia was always easy and prompt and was able to adapt to us. We recommend this place!

We had a lovely stay at this gite which is in a great location with excellent views. The fully self-contained house was spotlessly clean, comfortable, and well equipped. Easy parking just at the end of the private road and dog friemdly. We had a warm welcome from Anna, Lorenzo and Mambo and they all made sure we were well looked after. Many thanks!

Matteo’s house is clean and cozy. The view is absolutely stunning and the location is so prefect to explore the Cinque Terre area. It was only a 10 min drive to Riomaggiore and from there another 10 mins to Manarola. The only problem is the limited spots for parking. So we drove to La Spezia and parked our car near the station there and took the train from La Spezia to all the villages. Breakfast was provided by Matteo and he kept checking in to see if we need anything. He and his wife are very sweet people and we highly recommend their home!

This accommodation was so incredible , I actually got teary eyed when the host opened the house up for us , We felt like we were in a fairy tale . The views are panoramic and breath taking . You can see a castle across the valley ! It’s a quiet tranquil town , with interesting history . The house is charming and decorated very tastefully . My kids are already talking about how they want to come back some day . Thank you again ❤️

second time staying here and super grateful to have been able to enjoy a peaceful week in these incomparable surroundings. if you like walking and being close to nature this place is amazing. great patio to enjoy the fantastic panorama. I did many hours of work there at the computer and with warm sunny weather it made for an amazing spot to write/work in. the sentiero azzurro and further trails in the area are so beautiful. it is invigorating and refreshing to walk here. kitchen is compact but does the job nicely cooking for two. shops and eateries half an hour (I walk quite quickly) away in Vernazza or Corniglia. hope to come back soon. thank you Aranit, Pier Paolo and Mirjan!

As others have said—all of the reviews are spot on! A unique setting in the countryside about 30 minutes drive to Parma on mountain roads, beautiful historic building and grounds (with tastefully updated bathrooms to go with the historic charm, plus even a clothes washer and dryer you can access, a rarity in Italy), and a consummate host in Maria Teresa. Using her knowledge and connections to get personalized tours of smaller local parmigiano and prosciutto factories was a real highlight, and we especially enjoyed the nearby Torrechiara castle as well. The kids loved her animals too. 10/10 stay!

Very nice house, peaceful place. The host was very kind, very proactive and had lots of recommendations. They took also very good care of us. They brought us some cake one evening, asked if we needed tomatoes or anything else. When we went home we got a nice present from them with products from the area.

the house was really nice, located on a quiet hillside with no neighbors around, so you had a lot of privacy. It had three clean and beautiful bedrooms, and the house stayed cool during hot weather, which was really refreshing. We even had a friendly cat as a neighbor, and the host, Elisa, was super responsive and helpful. Everything in the kitchen was well-equipped, so cooking was easy and convenient.

We had a great time at the place! The apartment was clean, cozy, and exactly as described in the pictures. The location was great. It is quiet, but still central. The check-in went smoothly, and the host was very friendly, easily accessible and helpful with questions. We felt completely comfortable and would come back anytime. Thank you for the wonderful time!

Cristina is the perfect host and the house is beautiful. The surroundings are amazing and the views......wow! All through the booking and our stay there Cristina was swift to answer any questions we had and also was happy to offer suggestions on places to go and where to eat. We had a perfect week there and I wouldn't hesitate to go back or to recommend her place to anyone else. Cristina and her sister met us at the house and showed us round, clearly pointing out all the relevant bits that we would need to know. Thank you so much for making our week in Italy so special and enjoyable......we are already looking to come back!

We had a very relaxing and wonderful stay with Zivile and Dante. This little paradise is surrounded by fantastic nature, and the special energy of its inhabitants makes it a place for deep relaxation and connection. We enjoyed the time in our cottage, the refreshment at the pool, the nature, the lovely pets and also every encounter with civilians. A special experience was the full moon ceremony and an energetic treatment. For people with a spiritual sense and longing for peace and grounding, this is exactly the right place.

Fantastic 7 days with family. Adult children bought their partners and plenty to do and see. Car essential to get around and visited Florence, Lucca, Sarzana, Porto Venere and, also old town of Arcola. Had coffee in old square following walks from villa. Lazy days at villa able to enjoy the pool, loungers and shaded areas. Used BBQ for a meal. Comfortable bedrooms and bathrooms well supplied with all needed. Living area and kitchen ideal for our group and had some evening meals in.

Wonderful experience with this beautiful home on the top of the Spezia. Thank you to Alberto and his wife for their kindness, hospitality and welcome gifts! They are super responsive in communication and answer our questions very quickly! I can only recommend this place.

Beautiful home! Easy to find and Alessandro was extremely communicative through the entire process. Would highly recommend for a family looking to explore Cinque Terre, nearby beaches or Lucca. Thank you!

Our stay was completely successful! Communication with Elisa was super easy and pleasant – we felt in good hands from the start. The house was exactly as described: clean, cozy and well equipped. We especially liked the beautiful garden and the well-equipped kitchen – perfect for cooking something delicious yourself. We enjoyed the time very much and would come back anytime. Thank you, Elisa!

Alessandro's accommodation is great for those who want to get away from the chaos of the city, it is in a quiet location and surrounded by greenery but still close to a lot of areas of interest such as Forte dei Marmi (20min), Marina di Carrara (10min) and so on... it is a very strategic place, especially if you have pets with you. Our little dachshund, Focaccia, was able to run freely in the huge garden in front of the accommodation - a place where my partner and I decided to have dinner every evening while enjoying the beautiful sunset. 🌇 The accommodation is beautiful, new and equipped with a really super-stocked kitchen (we could even make pizza!). We were also very pleased with the presence of an air conditioner. We will definitely be back, we highly recommend it 🫶🏼 NB Alessandro has always been super helpful in answering all my questions and giving me very valuable advice on what to see/where to eat, etc. Thank you Alessandro for your infinite patience?

Marina and Antimo are very friendly people. In addition, we have never been able to move into such a clean apartment. Absolutely no dirt to be found. The beds sleep fantastically. The patio is nice to hang out in. And for the dog, it was also a nice place. In addition, one thinks of the small things that make the arrival pleasant. Toilet paper, soap, cleaning things, ice cubes, everything has been thought of. Antonio also came to let us taste his bottled wine (which was fantastic, by the way). In short, we had a fantastic time here for a period of 5 days and would like to come back again.

Francesca and her kind family have created a once-in-a-lifetime, soul-grounding experience in this beautifully restored 14th-century hillside retreat in Portovenere. We loved every minute of our six-night stay. From the mind-blowing views and steep, invigorating hikes to romantic evenings sipping homemade, earthy concoctions thoughtfully left for us—it was pure magic. We were welcomed with fragrant bundles of fresh lemons, rosemary, sage, and thyme, a gesture that set the tone for the care and warmth we felt throughout. The bed was incredibly comfortable, making our rest as memorable as our adventures. We especially loved our daily rocky hike down to the charming village, and one day we even rented a dinghy to explore the surrounding islands—an unforgettable way to soak in the coastal beauty. This place is beyond gorgeous—truly a slice of heaven.

very pleasant stay at Claudio's, the house is very nice, the inhabitants of the village are also very nice. to be redone 😊

Roby is a great host, who gives good advice. The accommodation was very clean, with everything you needed. Peaceful and pleasant environment! ☀️

We love this place so much, very beautiful 200 years house with cozy interior, garden and stunning view. Escape from city, picked lemons and vegetables from the garden, cooked meals, we enjoyed living in the place so much. The host was so nice and helpful he recommended lots of good restaurants nearby and beautiful spots to see, would love to comeback again.
