Activities in and around Casa Glyn
Boat trips along the Cinque Terre
Guests at Casa Glyn can enjoy the opportunity of a fabulous day at the coast in a private motor boat with qualified skipper! With departure from a private mooring in La Spezia we head across the stunning Golf of Poets, with views to the marble on the Cararra mountains, to Portovenere with its colourful houses, narrow streets and San Pietro church dating back to 1000 A.D. Then, weather permitting, we head along the magnificent coastline of the Cinque Terre, famous heritage site and natural marine reserve. Dips in the warm Mediterranean sea and time to go ashore at Vernazza for a wander and a gelato. Undoubtedly the best way to visit the Cinque Terre is by boat and with the luxury of one's own vessel and charming skipper then the sea, sun and natural beauty can be enjoyed to the maximum! A stunning day out before heading back to the tranquility of Casa Glyn for supper.
Private Massage service at Casa Glyn
What could be more luxurious and relaxing than having one's own masseur come to your villa whilst on holiday?! Professional masseur Sandro Nutini is excellent – highly experienced, friendly and dedicated, he will come to Casa Glyn on request so guests can enjoy a therapeutic massage with specially blended oils beneath the pool pergola– bliss!
Cookery lessons and cook service
Private cook service is a great addition to any villa holiday and at Casa Glyn we believe in using local Italians who can provide authentic dishes of the area using fresh ingredients and recipes handed down over the generations. What could be more appealing than returning from a day out to a delicious dinner on the terrace of Casa Glyn?! Relaxing and informal this is a great way to find out more about the wonders of Italian cooking. In addition, for those guests who are 'foodies' then a day's cookery course is great fun and the kitchen at Casa Glyn lends itself to such entertainment. Choose the dishes you would like to learn to cook and all about the ingredients and enjoy a fun packed day of Italian cooking and dining without having to go anywhere!
