Feel the centuries in this fully renovated farmhouse with a charming yet contemporary feel. Choose your favourite terrace for enchanting views of the valley and the mysterious mountains beyond... and settle into this rustic space. The guesthouse is part of a fully renovated ancient farmhouse. It used to be the drying chamber ("essiccatoio") where chestnuts, a staple of traditional Ligurian cuisine, were roasted. On the ground floor is a kitchenette/living room with a wood stove for added cosiness and a spacious bathroom with a view of the valley. On the first floor, the snug bedroom tempts even our most active guests to sleep in. On chillier evenings or after a long day trekking in the Cinque Terre, relax in the delightful, fully equipped hammam (Turkish sauna). Guests have complete access to the grounds, including the vegetable and herb garden and the orchard (cherries, nashis, grapes, chestnuts, etc.), as well as the terraces. Choose your favourite spot to dine, chill or work and enjoy the ever-changing views depending on the season and the time of day - or simply your mood. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Sauna ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Kitchenette - Refrigerator ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Separate dining area - Wood stove ### Outdoor areas - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Porch/lanai - Terrace ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In the mountains ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit ### General - Garden - Unit size: 280 square feet ## Similar properties ![Bar (on property)](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/21000000/20140000/20132800/20132711/f8afb74c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Hotel dell'Orto Chiavari - Free Wi-Fi - Restaurant - Air-conditioning - Breakfast available 9.0 Wonderful 29 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-03&endDate=2026-02-04&selected=20132711&PinnedHotelID=20132711&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/2000000/1360000/1353100/1353019/502ef752.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Hotel Miramare Rapallo - Breakfast included - Pet-friendly - Free Wi-Fi - Restaurant 8.4 Very good 474 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-03&endDate=2026-02-04&selected=1353019&PinnedHotelID=1353019&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 4:00 PM Minimum check-in age - 18 ### Check-out Check-out before 11:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions Information provided by the property may be translated using automated translation tools ### Rules In order to comply with legal obligations, a copy of the ID or passport of ALL guest is required to register guests with the competent authority. ### Pets Pets not allowed ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ## Important information ### You need to know This property is managed by a private host (a party not acting within their trade, business or profession).

The interior space is not very large (as can be seen in the photos), but the garden and terraces are great. You have a great view from the hammocks or from the terraces. There is always a place in the shade to sit. It is a wonderful place to relax. ##### Cor d.

The rustic charm mixed with the beautiful modern amenities made for a beautiful stay. The property and views were incredible. We definitely enjoyed the access and use of the sauna.

Da das Wetter sehr verregnet war haben wir leider den schönen Garten nicht nutzen können. Dafür steht ein wunderschöner Hamman zur Verfügung! ##### Ursula W.

Grandiose Aussicht und das Hamam zum entspannen. Sonst ist auch alles da, was man so braucht. Einkaufen kann man in Varese Liguria, was sonst auch recht sehenswert ist. Die Anreise war etwas abenteuerlich, haben es aber dann doch gut nach oben geschafft. ##### Christine N.

Meerdere terrassen en een fantastische hangmatten plek om van het geweldige uitzicht te genieten en tot rust te komen. Het huisje zelf is mooi ingericht en van alle gemakken voorzien. Wij hebben van de locatie en van de warmte en gastvrijheid van deze superlieve hosts genoten! Grazie mille!! ##### K. v.

Wir haben unseren Urlaub in dem stilvoll renovierten Steinhaus sehr genossen. Das Areal mit diversen Sitzmöglichkeiten bietet einen wunderbaren Ausblick auf die Berge Liguriens. Ausstattungsmäßig hat es uns an nichts gefehlt. Man sollte nur wissen, dass die Fahrt von Varese Ligure bis zum Haus ca. 15 min dauert und die Straßen sehr schmal sind. ##### Susanne S.
