This is a great country house both for a family who needs one or two overnights between Tuscany and Milan but also for the family who wants to stay a comfortable distance from the Liguria coast in an authentic location. There is both a restaurant and pool in the courtyard.
Here you find yourself in the central Liguria only approx. 15 km up in the highlands and approx. 15 km from the regional capital of Genova in a very hilly landscape. It is only 4 km to the motorway and therefore approx. a 2 hour drive to Malpensa airport. Despite the rural surroundings, it is only approx. 2 km to the Manesseno you can find a large supermarket. La Fattoria also accepts one night stays.

On the cosy farm you will find plenty of animals of course, including donkeys, goats, sheep, chicken and cows and a friendly farm dog. There is much fun for the children to be had here with the animals and there is also a playground for children. Because there is a restaurant on-site, it means you don't have to go driving at night with the children in search of an eaterie. The swimming pool has a shallow end of 80 cm, also suitable for small children. There is on-site parking for guests in front of the swimming pool but it is not visible from the house. The area is also very appealing for those that like to take walks. There is a path which passes La Fattoria which leads up to the local defence tower Forte Diamante from where there is a fine view.
Note In summer the farm runs a day camp for up to 10 children so there are likely to be playmates for your own children during Monday to Friday. During these days the play group are only allowed an hour in the pool so not to provide a nuisance to the guests.
You can dine at the Restaurant here and the menu consists of meat and vegetables with an emphasis on local Ligurian dishes such as rabbit and pasta right trofie with chestnuts. If you choose half board (not pre-booked), you one can expect a 4-course meal with water and house wine included in the price. It is served in the cosy inn where the breakfast is also served - and weather permitting, you can also dine outdoors. It is also possible to buy farm products to take home with you, including jams, fruit syrups and fava bean cream. The restaurant at La Fattoria di Marta is open for guests and the general public and since it is popular it can become busy for lunch and dinner on the weekends. However, the swimming pool is completely reserved for overnight guests.
