This excellent cottage on the hills of the nearby historic town of Sarzana, surrounded by centuries-old olive trees, boasts an extremely calm and geographically ideal situation and is furnished with every comfort, free WiFi included. It is close by the sea, both that of the beaches of Marinella and Versilia and of the fishing villages of Lerici, Portovenere and the idyllic Cinque Terre, and not forgetting crystalline waters of the celebrated Golfo dei Poeti (Golf of the Poets). The view fromthe cottage opens up over the valley of the River Magra as far as the sea. The cottage enjoys a special position which allow excursions that will satisfy all manner of interests, from the not-to-be missed marble quarries of Carrara to the archaeological area of the ancient Luni, from boat outings to the Cinque Terre to the exploration of the numerous medieval villages and hamlets that climb the surrounding hills, some of which are endowed with splendid castles that can be visited (for example Castle Malaspina di Fosdinovo or Fortezza Castracani di Sarzana). For those who are passionate about mountains there is the possibility to go trekking, with routes of various levels of difficulty, along the paths of the Alpi Apuane, or experience the thrill of an alpine walk around dolomite rock directly overlooking the Mare Terreno (Tyrrhenian Sea). Not to be missed is the historical centre of Sarzana, which is also walking distance away, with its antique stores, noble residences, ancient churches and all types of excellent typical restaurants.

    lovely well positioned property in the hills above Sarzana with great Autostrada and regional highway access. All mod cons on site, located in a quiet neighbourhood with wonderful views out to the ocean and scenic walking opportunities. I was in the area on business during the winter, with sketchy weather, but the house was more than comfortable to come back to each day. Annalisa was very kind and helpful in every respect especially when it came to a parking issue with my large vehicle. I highly recommend the property and look forward to arranging a stay in the near future.

    Our stay in Sarzana was beautiful. The house is very cute, perfect size for two people and well equipped. The olive grove is the perfect place to read a good book or enjoy the view of the surrounding hills with its castle. Thank you again to Annalisa for your warm welcome, we felt very much at home at your place.

    The house is lovely, settled in a garden filled with olive trees and offering the possibility to rest after visiting the countryside, all the more that the host agreed to switch OFF his wifi during night time to allow us to have a better sleep. There is also a fireplace in the living room - which we didn't use after all as the weather was mild, but certainly pleasant in other circumstances.

    This was our third stay in this excellent holiday home. We have returned because we love the home and the area. We enjoyed walking in the Apouane Alps, visiting the lovely hillside villages and relaxing at Lerici beach.

    We loved our stay at the beautifully converted hay barn. It was so spacious and clean and really felt comfortable and secluded. Our hosts were so friendly and generous, giving us a plate of delicious figs directly from their trees. They even offered us a ride from the train station which we could not accept, but did then retrieve us from downtown Sarzana late at night when we got stranded without a taxi. We are so grateful for their excellent hospitality.

    Not easy to find (our GPS didn't work), but wonderful! At the arrival Annalisa surprised us with local wine and a spungata. She and her husband were always there, when we had a problem. The silence in the mountain side near Sarzana was very restful. We liked our accommodation with the nice front porch, were the sun welcomed us in the morning for breakfast und gave us shade in the afternoon. Although the environment is wonderful. We made trips to La Spezia, Carrara, the Cinque Terre, Lerici, Porto Venere, Levanto and all the beautiful little villages near the sea and in the mountains. We were even in Firenze for a day trip, which is good to reach by train from Sarzana. Although Sarzana is a beautiful old town. Lastly we had luck, that at the time we were there, the Sarzana Acoustic Guitar Festival took place in the old citadel of Sarzana, just a dream! So thank you for the wonderful time!

    Annalisa and her husband are very nice hosts. At arrival you get a welcome present and they are very helpfull with questions. The holiday house is on the property of the tenants but with enough privacy. There is a nice view over the hills and a big garden with fruit trees. De driveway to the house is very steep. The house is comfortable. Sarzana is nearby and that is really a very nice little town. We enjoyed our coffee and icecream there every evening. We can recommend this accomodation for a nice holiday.

    We spent two weeks there and enjoyed very much. The location is ideal. The area is really nice and close to the city and sea. This residence is clean and comfortable and felt like home and the host and hostess are nice and friendly people. We surely would like to go there once again in the future.
