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.
