"Il Pettirosso"- house in the greenery near Lerici and Cinque Terre

If you are looking for a place that is near enough to town yet feels like you are miles away - this is a perfect place for you!

The apartment that we suggest you is arranged like this: it is 40sqm distributed in one floor and divided in one bedroom, a very bright living room with a kitchen where there is also a sofa bed that guarantees two other places to sleep. The apartment is structurally attached to the house where I live with my loving girlfriend Egle, but besides that it is completely independent: you would have not only your private parking space, but also a complete private entrance, autonomy and a wonderful terrace with its stunning views to the antique valley surrounded by vineyards and olives. The whole house is surrounded by the greenery which is 1 hectare of terrain of our property where we grow olives, fruit trees and saffron, you would certainly be able to freely walk around and enjoy it. For that you could enjoy our common green space (used only by travelers of our other two properties) where there are some tables for you to eat, some beach chairs for sunbathing and pergola to stay in the shadow and simply enjoy the view to the Apuan Alps. This space can be used also in the evening as there is also a lighting system. In such natural context there are certainly some animals around that we have - a few cats, one dog and chickens.
Having an independent apartment you will have a maximum autonomy, but also you could always count on us at any time while needing something.
The arrival and the departure will be managed by me or my companion unless some impossible situations.

We've been renting other house for a while too, so for the reviews you can look here --> https://www.homeaway.com/vacation-rental/p1788292 As the two places are at the same spot, there is a possibility for bigger groups to rent them both if it will be available at the same time.

The house is situated in a strategically good location where you can easily reach many famous cities.The apartment is found 950m away from a medieval village of Arcola, 5km from the entrance of a highway, 6km from the beaches of Lerici, 18km from the Natural Park of Cinque Terre, 18 km from Carrara's marble caves on the Apuan Alps, 36 km from Forte dei Marmi and its beaches, 44km away from Versilia and 65 km from Lucca and Pisa.
The apartment is found on the private street and there is no direct public transport to the house, it goes only to the city of Arcola, so we recommend you having your own car that will help you to move around more easier.
As the house is up in the valley it is reached by an asphalted street that is not that wide.

Me and my companion have decided to make this apartment available (recently renewed) by giving an opportunity for those who travel to visit and experience new places of a charming, beautiful and full of culture Liguria. The house is perfect because you are near the city and yet at the same time it feels like you are far away and that lets you enjoy the tranquility being in the natural and healthy context.

It is a little out of the way, but this adds to the charm. The hosts were very helpful providing information on the area and map links. The stay was beautiful.

Relaxing stay out of town
The cottage and location were really beautiful and relaxing. It was a little too remote and out of town for our needs as we had planned to visit Cinque Terre and the surrounding areas. We had to drive down the hill into town to have dinner which wasn't too convenient after a long day of driving and sight seeing.

Bellissima location
Abbiamo passato 3 notti in compagnia della nostra cagnolina Olivia. Accoglienza e disponibilità massime da parte dell’host e della sua famiglia. Il posto è situato in zona verde e tranquilla ma in pochi minuti è possibile raggiungere tutte le località più turistiche. Le strutture fanno parte di un più ampio progetto di sviluppo e valorizzazione del territorio con un occhio di riguardo alla tradizione ed alla sostenibilità. Abbiamo anche acquistato dell’ottimo olio bio prodotto in loco. Consigliato dunque a chi desidera conciliare pace e tranquillità con la conoscenza del territorio.

Am Ende der Straße
Das Haus von Elias liegt am Ende einer schmalen, teilweise etwas steilen Straße. In etwas mehr als 5 Minuten ist ist man mit dem Auto in der Altstadt von Arcola, die ein wunderbares Labyrint aus alten Gassen und Häusern am Berg ist (zu Fuß haben wir knapp 15 Minuten gebraucht). Das Haus hat fast alles, was man für einen Ferienaufenthalt braucht. Elias und seine Familie sind hilfsbereit und per WhatsApp gut zu erreichen. Als wir nach einem zweiten Topf gefragt habe, hat Elias ihn am Abend gleich vorbei gebracht. Die Terasse geht nach Westen, sodass wir beim Abendessen einen wunderbaren Sonnenuntergang als Kulisse hatten. Leider liegt die im Inserat abgebildete Tischgruppe unter Weinranken auf der anderen Straßenseite, sodass wir diesen Platz nicht genutzt haben, weil es auch kein Tablett gab, um bequem Geschirr herüber zu tragen. Von dem beschriebenen Grundstück mit Obst- und Olivenbäumen haben wir nicht viel entdecken können, weil das Grundstück steil abfällt und teilweise nicht begehbar war und uns auch nicht gezeigt wurde, wo wir hätten gehen können. Das war sehr schade.

Très bon séjour
Merci à Egle et Elias pour leur accueil. Nos hôtes sont venus nous chercher dans le village pour que nous ne nous perdions pas. Ils vivent juste à côté mais sont dune discrétion remarquable. Leur propriété est un ecrin de verdure,plein d'arbres fruitiers et de bonnes odeurs. Le logement était très bien pour nous trois, avec une jolie terrasse. Un calme bienvenu après la foule éprouvante des Cinque Terre. A bientôt !

Calme et vue magnifique
Elias nous a très bien accueilli à proximité pour nous guider jusqu'à la maison. Un havre de paix avec une vue magnifique ! Idéalement placé pour visiter les Cinque terre puisque à 15 minutes en voiture seulement de La Spezia où on peut prendre le train des 5 terres.

Great hideaway in the tuscan hills
We head a very peaceful and recovering stay at Egle's and Elias' place. The silent atmosphere was great and we really enjoyed keeping a bit of distance to the crowded coast areas but still having them in quick reach if we felt like it. Especially the caring and friendly contact with Egle and Elias is remarkable! Thanks again the two of you for hosting us last summer!

Alles Tip top schöne spannende Umgebung
Sehr nette Vermieter. Das Häusle ist fröhlich freundlich eingerichtet. Super warm 22 Grad auch in der kälteren Jahreszeit da Zentralheizung. Und zusätzlich darf man noch mit dem Holzofen ein gemütliches Raumklima erleben. Das Haus liegt am Ende einer Sackgasse. Ruhe pur. Ich hab das Häusle mit eigenem PP und Terrasse geliebt. Küche ist auch alles da außer einem Wasserkocher... für Teetrinker fehlt dieser. Sie haben eigenes 100% BIO Olivenöl. Wer die Ruhe mag kann die Umgebung mit wunderschönen Dörfer in oder außerhalb der 5 Terre in angenehmer Distanz erkunden. Weg zum Haus geteert aber eng und rumpelig. Nicht für tiefe Spirtwagen aber sonst kein Problem ..

Herrlicher Ausblick
Das kleine Häuschen hat uns gut gefallen, der Blick vom Balkon ist sehr schön! Es war sehr sauber und mit allem Notwendigen ausgestattet, der nette Vermieter wohnt nebenan und ist per WhatsApp jederzeit erreichbar und gibt Tipps und hilft mit allem weiter! Das Häuschen liegt sehr ruhig und etwas abgelegen, was wir aber gesucht haben! Man ist schnell in Lerici, am Meer, in La Spezia. Unbedingt einen Besuch wert ist die Osteria unten in Arcola: es gibt leckere Panigacchis! Einzige (unbedeutende) Nachteile: keine Tür zwischen Wohn- und Schlafzimmer und keine Morgensonne auf dem Balkon (ist im Sommer aber eher ein Vorteil, wir waren im Herbst da).
