Situated in Uscio historical town center, Genova, at only 9 km from Recco and Camogli, Portofino, it offers sea view and a large garden, a mild and airy climate all year round, as well as the possibility to practice several sports activities: diving (in Portofino Marine Reserve), hiking with sea view, sailing, canoeing, mountain bike tours, tours on horseback, and a beautiful sea. Uscio lies in a panoramic position towards the amphitheater-shaped Recco Valley, an open and panoramic valley always facing the mountains and the sea. An untouched area situated among three regional parks.

Accommodation

B&B Rifugio Uscio is a characteristic local house of the early 20th century that has been renovated considering the features characterizing its unique style. The mosaic floors are original and, as you can see from the photos, the coffered ceiling is made of ancient timber. It is characterized by period furnishing.
The position of B&B Rifugio Uscio is particularly interesting for several reasons:

1) It lies very near to the town center, since it is situated above the church of Uscio, where there are bars, services (post office, ATM), shops, a pizzeria, and transport services (buses)

2) Rifugio Uscio lies at only 300 meters from the halting place (parking area above the B&B) where you can leave to reach all the main itineraries of Golfo Paradiso, both to Ruta-Portofino, Punta Chiappa and Genova (Monte Fascie). In the north you will get to Passo Della Scoffera connecting us to Alta Via dei Monti Liguri.

3) Trails for mountain bike lovers, experts and not. The itineraries leading to Portofino are easy, suitable also for children.

4) Tours on horseback organized by the Horse Riding Club "La Cascina", only 3 km from B&B Rifugio Uscio. For further info, please contact the following telephone number: mobile 328/4015992

5) B&B Rifugio Uscio is situated at 350m a.s.l., where the climate is particularly mild and characterized by a pleasant marine breeze.

6) Recco, the gastronomic capital of Liguria, offers several festivals all year round between Recco and Uscio, in characteristic towns. It also offers delicious specialties.

7) The climate is always mild and characterized by a pleasant marine breeze (seagulls often come and visit us). Since it is characterized by a particularly healthy microclimate, Uscio perfectly identifies itself with the name of the wonderful gulf where it is situated: Paradiso ("paradise").
