About this property
Beautifully restored hay-barn with splendid views, set amongst olive groves and 7 km from the sea. Sarzana
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 from the 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.

Why they chose this property
The property has been in my family for generations. It is a large piece of hilly land formed by a large olive grove and acres of woodland. On the property there are two buildings: the big house, where once lived the family of sharecroppers, and the barn, which housed hay and animals. When, in the 90s, it has become my property, I started to restore the olive grove and restore the barn, which, for years, became our holiday home. Later, when we have restored the big house, the one where we still live, the barn has become a holiday home for our guests, hoping that they will spend pleasant and serene time, in it, as it happened to us.
