The historical cottage residence La Paganina is located in the romantic medieval hamlet of Carro in the Val di Vara, province of La Spezia, just five kilometers inland from the famous Cinque Terre in Liguria. Now offering exclusive cottage accommodation, this 17th century residence was owned by the family of famous Italian violinist Nicolò Paganini.

The musician himself used to stay in the 'residenza' to visit his paternal grandparents. The current owner of La Paganina is Don Carlos Canevaro of the Dukes of Zoagli, a noble family originating from Genoa. He is also owner of the famous Canevaro castle in Zoagli near Portofino.

Modern additions include a self catering kitchen and central heating throughout. Typical Ligurian courses served in the dining room are available on request.
