Set amidst picturesque Ligurian hills and just a short drive from the coast and the gorgeous villages of the Cinque Terre, this home makes for a great place to retreat to and enjoy a family holiday. With a generous outdoor space, a swimming pool and plenty of games and activities to be enjoyed, we think you’ll have a swell time here. The home offers plenty of space and a quirky interior, which emanates character and hints at the hosts’ varied interests. This may not be an ultra-modern villa, but if it’s charm and homeliness you’re after, this place has them in spades. There’s more than ample room for kicking back and relaxing, with an open-plan kitchen and dining room on the ground floor and a large and cosy living room on the first floor. Rustle up delicious feasts in the country-style kitchen and gather outside for wine and laughter under the stars. There’s also a barbecue out here to make those alfresco suppers even more fun. Get a good night’s sleep in any of the six bedrooms, with additional sleeping arrangements available in the living room, and wake up feeling well-rested and ready to explore. With idyllic country walks, cycling... trails and horse riding options, you’ll be able to truly experience Liguria’s great outdoors.

About Cinque Terre
Literally translating to ‘five lands’ in English, the Cinque Terre in the Italian Riviera is, in many ways, exactly what it says on the tin.

This home is managed by Oliver
