Ca' Bianca house is the oasis for all who want to spend Tuscany in its heart in a private house and close to the beach (approximately 7 km). The house with a large garden and terrace offers a lot of relaxing space to rest (even with children who love animals). Bianca, Alessandro, and their staff are absolutely kind, helpful, and polite. The interior of the house is a balm for every soul. All of us must feel comfortable there. And what a fantastic breakfast on the terrace with a wonderful view! I have to mention the perfect outside kitchen with plenty of chairs, a sofa, and seating areas. Thank you very much for allowing us to stay and absolutely fully recommended!

Great hosts & staff. Beautiful view over Fosdinovo/Carrara as well. Rooms were very well kept and clean, my only issue being the lack of sound proofing in the rooms, as any sort of noise reverbs, which I felt didn't help with privacy. \n\nOutside of that though, the property is clean and very nice, and I've thoroughly enjoyed my stay. \n\nNote: I didn't try the breakfast, so please ignore the breakfast section on my review.

Very clean rooms as well as the common area for guests. Everything tastefully decorated. Very nice terrace with a good view. The location is good, although one should pay attention to the uphill approach with very tight curves. Access to the property is a bit hard to find. A sign here wouldn't hurt. The landlady, as well as the staff, were very friendly. I don't want to rate the breakfast separately, as everyone has a different opinion on local offerings.

The answer from the host:
Grazie Mirko, per la vostra recensione. E' stato un vero piacere avervi nostri ospiti, siete una bellissima famiglia. Mi dispiace di non aver soddisfatto le vostre aspettative riguardo alla posizione. Ti ringrazio perchè mi dai l'opportunità di spiegare i motivi delle mie scelte. Quando, dopo lunga ricerca, trovai questa casa pensai che la spettacolarità del suo panorama, l'ampiezza degli spazi sia interni che esterni, la pace, il canto della natura circostante e la vicinanza ai luoghi d'interesse avrebbero sopperito alla scomodità di non essere in pieno centro. Spero di rivedervi presto, un affettuoso saluto da Nina la canina.

We stayed at Ca' Bianca during the Festival della Mente in Sarzana, which is just a few kilometers away from the property. Charming place with a stunning view overlooking the sea. Clean and well-furnished rooms. Abundant breakfast with high-quality local products. All this thanks to the passion and commitment of Bianca, Lorenzo, and Alessandra. Bianca is a helpful person and very attentive to details. You can feel a family atmosphere. A very pleasant stay, enhanced by the presence of Nina, a lovely Golden Retriever puppy that welcomes you warmly and entertains you. Nina is very well-behaved, clean, and non-intrusive.

Weekend of relaxation in a stunning area waiting to be discovered. Exceptional hospitality from the managers who made us feel at home from the very first moment. The house is cared for in every detail, spacious and very clean rooms. Terrace with a spectacular view over the valley and the sea and a very abundant breakfast, both sweet and savory. Easy to reach by car. For those like us who went to Tuscany to enjoy a few days by the sea, the structure is about 15 minutes away (by car) from the beach of Marinella di Sarzana. We will definitely come back!

We stayed just over a month ago in this B&B and deliberately waited some time before reviewing our stay. Essentially, we didn't want to risk being biased and giving overly positive 'hot' opinions, but despite that, it's impossible not to remember with joy the experience lived: extremely clean and super welcoming location. Bianca, Lorenzo, and their staff are impeccable in managing and taking care of everything in detail! Kindness and hospitality were a fundamental part of the stay, but the quality, goodness, and abundance of breakfast were of a superior level. The structure is not located in a very convenient position to the city center (that's why I gave a rating of 9 and not 10), but perhaps this is also a characteristic that ultimately contributes to making everything so special. We will definitely consider the structure for future stays and recommend it to anyone who knows how to appreciate in simplicity all the beauty a person can offer while carrying out their activity with passion. See you soon, Pietro and Roberta.

It's ideal for spending a few days immersed in greenery and tranquility. Welcoming structure, tastefully furnished, very spacious and livable, you feel at home. Ca' Bianca, Lorenzo and Alessandra welcomed us with sympathy and were very helpful in satisfying every request. Spectacular view from the terrace where we enjoyed a rich sweet and savory breakfast. Let's not forget the kitchen space totally available to guests, equipped with every utensil for cooking, enjoying meals outdoors under a pergola and a splendid barbecue for grilling together. All this in total freedom and privacy. We were very satisfied, we also recommend it to families with children, we will return as soon as possible.

We stayed at Bianca and Lorenzo's for three nights and we are satisfied with our choice. Breakfast is served on the panoramic terrace and the rooms are well-kept, a huge hall with many books and CDs. Ca' Bianca is located a few kilometers from Sarzana with its beautiful castle, 2 km from the Malaspina road near the castle of Fosdinovo (Must see). What makes Ca' Bianca unique is the possibility to cook autonomously in the courtyard, surrounded by nature with all the necessary tools including a fridge! In short, you will feel at home at Ca' Bianca.

It is said that “if you love your job, you will never have worked a single day”. In this case, I am sorry for Ca' Bianca, she will never retire then, because it is clear that she puts passion into everything she does within her B&B and it is perceived that she does it not for economic return, but because she does it well and all this she conveys to the guests. A special mention for what cannot be defined as the staff, but her life partners: Lorenzo and Alessandra “the Bulgarian”, always courteous and extremely helpful for everything but never intrusive. We found the place perfectly corresponding to the description, indeed, this is a bit deficient compared to what it really offers, really comfortable rooms and excellent common areas. It should be noted that in the “staff” there are also a dog and two cats, so if you do not appreciate them, perhaps it would not be the right choice, but if you read the description, be sure that what you will find, along with much more.

Located a few kilometers from the center of Sarzana and the sea, on the slope of the hill that leads from the sea to Fosdinovo. From the balcony, where breakfast is served (excellent and abundant, rich in local products), there is an incredible panorama that ranges from Versilia to Montemarcello. The silence and tranquility are total. There is also a covered space, used as a kitchen and dining room, available for guests. Bianca and Lorenzo are exceptional hosts, and they make you feel like you are at home. The rooms are large and very clean. A beautiful experience that we will repeat, and that I recommend to everyone, both families and couples.

In mid-July we stayed at this romantic structure with maritime colors, nestled in the olive hills between Liguria and Tuscany. Great for excursions in the greenery or trips to the sea. An exceptional panorama can be enjoyed from the terrace, where a sweet and savory breakfast is served with typical products and delicious homemade sweets. The rooms are spacious, extremely clean, and furnished with care. The managers: Lorenzo and Bianca, very kind and helpful people. We really enjoyed our stay, highly recommended.

We booked at 'Ca' Bianca' for two nights, together with a couple of friends, for the June 2nd long weekend, but due to the uncertain weather (a week of rain before the departure date), we decided to cancel the reservation, even though we lost the deposit. After contacting the B&B and explaining our reasons and concerns (we didn't want to risk being stuck for two days with the children), we were kindly offered the option to move the reservation to the following week, as there were no other bookings, thus avoiding the loss of the deposit. We arrived at the property around lunchtime and were greeted by Bianca and Lorenzo, the owners, Alessandra, their collaborator, and Carmine (Nello for friends), a wonderful and friendly golden retriever. As soon as we entered the property, we were speechless: a large and bright living room, full of bookshelves filled with books and comics of all kinds, overlooking a terrace with a breathtaking view of the hill and the sea. The rooms are spacious and well-maintained, we stayed in the 'Pazzi' room, large and comfortable, with a large double bed, a single bed, and enough space for my daughter's camping cot; the bathroom is very spacious. I immediately noticed (as I always do in every place I visit) the excellent level of cleanliness, despite the presence of the dog and the cat (Mimì) wandering around the house. The room where our friends stayed, Stefano's room, although smaller, is very cozy. In the morning, we were offered a rich and organic breakfast, with local products: freshly baked lemon-scented cookies, hazelnut cookies, chocolate cake, apple and cinnamon muffins (all prepared by Bianca), sourdough bread, local bacon, ricotta, various types of jams and yogurt, as well as cow's or almond milk, coffee; needless to say, we left the table full. After breakfast, a heavy rain started, but we enjoyed it from the terrace chatting with Bianca and Lorenzo, who proved to be exceptional hosts. We are already thinking of returning in September, given the beauty of the place and the hospitality of the owners. The children, on their part, had plenty of space to play with Carmine and to tease Mimì (the cat) who was trying to escape them. I highly recommend this B&B to everyone: singles, couples, families with children, and the elderly; you can do many activities, from walks to visiting the villages of Lerici, Sarzana, and Portovenere, from going to the sea to reading one of the many books available for guests on the terrace, enjoying the breathtaking view.

We highly recommend it to everyone, even to those with children or pets.
