Villa Rosmarino is located on Mount Portofino, a protected area that stretches out into the open sea, a natural border between the Golfo Paradiso and Golfo del Tigullio. The Mount is a regional park of great natural interest where sea, rocks and vegetation merge perfectly to create unforgettable scenery. The Mount rises just above Camogli, one of the most famous and enchanting fisherman’s village in Liguria. Built in 1907 over a pre-existing structure, Villa Rosmarino is a typical ligurian small palace with green shutters and trompe l’oeil which reproduce on the wall frescos, decorations and floral motifs. The large garden of Villa Rosmarino surrounds the house in a typical ligurian fashion. A large magnolia tree and some chamelias spread their fragrance on the Mount side, while climbing roses, gardenias, pomegranate trees and geraniums will lead your walk toward the swimming pool area. Lemon, tangerine and grapefruit trees bloom right outside the large opening doors of the living room while the lavender and rosemary bordered lawn that surrounds the swimming poll hosts the old mill grindstone and an ancient retorted fig tree. Guests can admire these colors while comfortably sunbathing on the lounge chairs and beds around the large swimming pool. The villa’s interiors are defined by modern furnishing and Italian design, not only as far as the pieces of furniture are concerned but also for the presence of works of art by contemporary international artists. The internal decor is relaxing and soothing for the most demanding traveler. Large sofas, a communal designer long table, a modern fireplace define the living room, while the library with a long terrace overlooking the pool and Golfo Paradiso, invites to reading time thank to sofas and chairs of mixed modern and deco period, surrounded by walls of art, literature, communication and design books. Children over 8 years are welcome.
