Hey from Jessica

Member since July 2008 | 46,155 hits

I am from Liguria, and I spent the most beautiful summers of my childhood in Latte, at my mother's family's seaside house: the Fenoglio family, a noble family originally from Briga and who came to live in Ventimiglia in the 15th century.

I lived in Lombardy for 35 years, living with my dogs (I bred Nordic dogs for several years) in a farmhouse in the Ticino park.

Tired of the humidity and fog, I decided to return to Ventimiglia where I spent the best years of my life. I love animals and live with a cat named Mimino, so I cannot host other animals.

I enjoy chatting and making new friends; my desire is for those who leave Ventimiglia to remember, in addition to the color of my sea and the scent of the pine trees, my home, its garden, lemons, mandarins, and the frogs that speak at night.

In the summer, I like to organize dinners and barbecues in our outdoor kitchen, which is available to guests who do not want to go to a restaurant every evening.

Top B&B! Beautiful view, no noise, a very attentive and above all loving hostess. A great and above all rich breakfast. Every coffee fresh, fruit, yogurt, salami, ham, juices and cereals / cornflakes couldn't be better. We had to spontaneously extend by 1 night because Monaco fascinated us so much. Only 28 min. train ride almost every half hour. To the train station only 7 min by car. A special thanks to hostess Jessica for her warm and attentive manner. She made our stay extraordinary and pleasant.

Danke Carsten und Andrea, zwei zuvorkommende, diskrete und super nette Gastgeber

Lovely hosts in a really beautiful old house. They were very kind and interested in our vacation plans. Everything was very clean and well organized. The location is pretty far uphill, but the view was awesome and the walk to the old city center is really nice. Would stay here again anytime. Thank you so much!

What a wonderful spot in Ventimiglia! We stayed one week in February and enjoyed the host, the location, the breakfast and had a great time to visit the city, the lovely restaurants, the hills around and did visit Menton and Sanremo by train. You also can easily take a bus to go into the mainland with cosy villages. Enjoy your walks and be happy; you are in Italy!

There was no air conditioning and Wi-Fi in the twin bedroom. The interaction with the host was mediocre. Did not feel welcome. The other guests were friendly and quiet. Breakfast definitely the best of our 1-night stay. Would not stay again.

The accommodation was great! The host is very nice, everything was clean, the breakfast is really good, too. We felt really comfortable and welcome. The only small 'problem' was that we always had to climb up the hill to get to the house, but sometimes we also got a ride from the host, which was really nice! Thank you very much:).

stayed from 07/20/2022 to 07/23/2022

luca

Beautiful house on three levels just above the historic center of Ventimiglia, quiet and with a very suggestive view (if you stay in the rooms with balcony). However, what prevails is the silence and the courtesy of the host. Highly recommended!

The answer from the host:
Grazie Luca..spero che il vostro giro in bicicletta sia andato alla grande!!!

The host is very nice and you are 15 walking minutes away from the historical city.

It is really nice, calm, clean and hospitable atmosphere. I truly recommend the place for all these reasons. My only difficulty was climbing up to get home after long tiring days, yet, the households are very nice and caring people, they were giving me a ride down the city, so I only needed to get back. If you travel by car or bike, go for it, in case you have to walk, be ready to climb the hill:) at some point it is a good exercise to burn your calories:).

Beautiful view over Ventimiglia, the property is located above Fort San Paolo. Mrs. Jessica is a very nice and helpful lady, although she doesn't speak the Ventimiglia dialect. The environments are clean and welcoming, but I'm not sure if she will welcome me again next time because I ate all the breakfast supplies.

I stayed one night with my car. The parking is inside. The property is a bit far from the center of Ventimiglia (2 km?) so it's better to have a car. However, with light luggage, even a good walker can also walk up. That being said, the value for money is excellent. The room is in a beautiful house, the bathroom is outside the room and is shared with other guests, if there are any. The breakfast is great, and the owner is a very pleasant person. Definitely worth going back. Oh, I forgot: there's also a wonderful cat!
