"The house is lovely and right in the middle of the old center of town. Nice kitchen and bathroom. Beautiful walks, great cycling and swimming in the rockpools."

About this house rental

Charming 500 year old townhouse on 4 levels. The property is south facing and gets the sun all year round, yet in the summer the thick walls keep it lovely and cool after a day in the sun. On the ground floor is the modern, extremely well-equipped, kitchen/dining-room with beautiful vaulted ceiling. A bedroom with 3 beds and a modern bathroom with shower is on the second floor. On the third floor is the master bedroom with double bed and stunning views. On the top floor is the bright, sunny living room where the views get even better! One can gaze out at night and see the village of Castel Vittorio seemingly suspended in the air. The living room has a large comfortable sofa .and a smart TV. It has a cathedral ceiling and french doors leading onto two small balconies. The house is very quaint but has all the mod cons for your comfort. The property has rare vehicle access close to the front door for unloading and there is parking 100m away. It is very private but a minute's walk away from two fantastic restaurants and a charming bar. We have central heating making the house lovely and cosy for those winter nights.
There are two grocery shops within very short walking distance and a very popular pizzeria. A well renowned restaurant is within 15/20 minutes walking.

We stayed in this house for 11 nights and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It is a lovely traditional house tucked into the old town, and all the stairs kept us fit. Loved our daily walks to the local watering holes for a swim, and coffee and pastries in the town. Thanks very much

We have been travelling through France and Italy for 3 months so far as a family of five and would rate our stay in Pigna at the top of the list of Airbnb experiences. It was clean, very homely, gorgeous location and everything had been thought of. All of our communication with Gillian was very prompt and all in all it was an outstanding experience for us. Our most authentic Italian town so far and one place we will definitely come back to one day! We swam at the watering hole every day which is a lovely 10 minute walk along old cobbled streets and had the most incredible gelato almost every day. There is a cute little local bar and Alimentari 2 minutes walk away. A very memorable experience for us. Thank you so much Gillian. We will definitely recommend this lovely spot 🦌🇮🇹

We had a three week stay in Gillians house in Pigna which is a really a favourable place to be. The house it self is cute, well equipped and perfectly fits to the spot ... which is a fine one, concerning its distance to the mediterranean sea, Ventimiglia, Menton and both ( italian/french) sides of the riviera. We also visited some spots in the nearer environment of Pigna ( Castel Vittorio, Dolceaqua, the cinque vallies etc. ) and loved the river Nervia and its little creeks ... So, to summarize all : we will definitly come back in the near future. A presto!

I'll start this review with a caveat, in that my wife Silvia and I are experienced, occasionally long-suffering, travelers and house-renters, and speaking for myself, age has made me rather particular (some might say fussy). We married in Pigna three years ago, so were very excited to be coming back to stay for the first time with two additions to our family, Alice & Arthur. Gillian was very helpful and communicative making sure we had relevant telephone numbers and contact details for Georgia (her Pigna based house manager who was wonderful), and was fabulous supplying and putting up two cots for us to use and a high chair which made our stay so much more comfortable (so 10 out of 10). Furthermore, we left Pigna to travel to Umbria but enjoyed being there so much decided to come back for another 10 days (but sadly in another house owned by someone else) but Gillian made sure the cots and high chair were lent to us in that house as well; we appreciated the gesture enormously. The house itself is arranged over four floors, with the kitchen conveniently for us, on the ground floor. We enjoy cooking and didn't want for anything. The bedrooms were cool, and the master bedroom had lovely sash windows opening up delightful views of the town and surrounding woodland and most importantly a big comfy bed. Likewise, the living room on the top floor, with even better views, was comfortable and stylish. The bathroom was clean and pleasant. Pigna itself is full of confusing little allies and walkways to the newcomer but Gillian's house is super accessible at the top of the village close to the piazza, so convenient for loading and unloading the car. Our experience was wholly positive and enjoyable and we wouldn't hesitate to come back to the same house when we inevitable return. As for Pigna, it is an idiosyncratic Ligurian working town, full of curious welcoming locals (a rare thing) and hidden charms; it crumbles and creaks in places as you'd expect from a medieval town but is delightful, historic and charming, surrounded as it is by fabulous mountains with hidden rock pools, waterfalls and wildlife. We loved our stay and will be back for certain!!

Absolutely stunning location, gorgeous town house and the owners really have thought of everything. Exceptionally clean, all the amenities you could possibly need and plenty of friendly people in the town and surrounding areas. My husband and I had an unforgettable stay here at the start of August and we will definitely return! The location is perfect for exploring the Italian - and French - riviera!

We stayed in Pigna for 2 weeks, what a truly amazing place it's like going back hundreds of years! Our stay was made even better by our accommodation. Very much home from home comforfortable and very clean. We loved our holiday and Pigna that much we are thinking of buying our own property there!
8.0 / 10.0
We really loved Gillian's house in the old mediaeval town of Pigna. No cars, just the sound of people talking as they walked by. The house was well equipped and renovated to a high standard. We particularly loved the living room with its splendid views over the surrounding countryside.
