In Liguria we are blessed by proximity to the sea, as well as to the cooling mountains. The gentle climate and superb access to picturesque little towns, wonderful beaches, and varied neighbouring regions make this area very special. Castiglione Chiavarese offers incomparable peace and serenity, as well as a wealth of trails for hiking and mountain biking. Horses can be rented locally for beautiful walks in the wooded hills facing the house.
The resort town of Sestri Levante is just 15 minutes away along a winding country road to the sea. This magical place is located on a peninsula that juts into the Ligurian sea and is graced by two blissful bays, one known to Byron and Shelley as the Bay of Silence for its calm waters, and the other named by Hans Christian Andersen as the Bay of Fables. There are sandy and pebbled beaches, tennis courts, and boat and bicycle rental shops. Sestri also offers a variety of dining and shopping options, and a romantic promenade along the sea.
