About this villa rental

The Blackberry Cottage (CIN: IT011015C2EOVLMTVX) is in a wonderful position on a hillside, about 450 ft above sea level, with a panoramic view of the Gulf of La Spezia, looking across to Lerici.
The dawn and sunrise are often a photographer’s dream !

The property is incorporated into an attractive terraced garden, entirely enclosed within stone walls. The situation is secluded without being isolated, as there are other houses out of sight at a lower level within 100 meters or so, with different access.
The cottage is surrounded by the green Mediterranean forest and it is connected to a network of walking paths, making it a perfect location for hiking-lovers.
The cottage is ideally located for those wanting to explore the neighborhoods: Cinque Terre, Portovenere, Lerici and Telaro are within easy reach by car. Portofino, Lucca, and Pisa are all about an hour away.
Pisa international airport, a Ryanair destination, is within an hour from the house.

The house sleeps up to eight – but two of the bedrooms have robust pine bunk beds, thus either suitable for one adult or two children in each room. These two rooms are on the first floor, where there is also a WC with hand basin. Both rooms have marvelous views over the Gulf. The master bedroom is on the ground floor, next to the bathroom (which was completely modernized for the 2006 season). This bedroom has definite charm and is another room with a fine view. It has a double bed. The final double bedroom is on the lower ground floor, with access to the garden via a French window.

The final room in the house incorporates, kitchen, dining area and a small sitting area next to an open fireplace. As has been mentioned, in summer (virtually) all meals are taken on the patio, so the lack of a proper sitting room is no drawback except when it rains. The kitchen area has been up-graded within the last three years

    The modern tiny houses can really take an example of this traditional cottage! Everything possible necessary during your stay is available. Although no airconditioning it stays nice cool inside. You can see that the owner really loves this cottage. It felt like an honour to stay here. The area is very nice but at this time of the year a bit too touristic. Parking your car is a challenge; the trains are very crowded.

    we(Family with 7 adults) had a great week in the blackbery cottage in the last week of 2022. The house is at a great spot overviewing the harbour and we loved the character. Even in December hiking at the sea was very enjoyable! Alberto was a great host and all organisation and information given was perfect in time and un complicated! Thank you for a great weak, all members really enjoyed it!

    Nous avons passé un très bon séjour à la Villa des mûres. La vue depuis le jardin est splendide et la terrasse très agréable. Le petit cottage est charmant, parfait pour six personnes. Alberto, le propriétaire, nous a très gentiment accueilli. Nous avons ainsi pu visiter les Cinque Terre, en train, depuis La Spezia. Nous garderons un très bon souvenir de nos vacances.

    Beautiful location and responsive owner
    Beautiful location and responsive owner
    We spent 5 nights at this beautiful location with beautiful views. The home is well appointed and perfectly suited our group of 4 adults and 2 children for our visit in the area. We were able to visit the Cinque Terre, Porto Venere, Pisa and Lucca during our stay. We happened to be in Italy during the European heatwave and after the first night I emailed the owner to ask if there were fans in the home. He was able to tell me exactly where to find them very quickly. The outside shower was a great way to help beat the heat on the hot afternoons after our days of sightseeing as well. I highly recommend this beautiful property.

    This cottage is in a private location above La Spezia and very close to Cinque Terre and is only a 10 minute drive down to La Spezia for dinner and shopping. The house has a spectacular ocean view and is surrounded by a beautiful garden and forest. Highly Recommend!

    Unkomplizierte abwicklung aber etwas eng für 8 personen
    Unkomplizierte abwicklung aber etwas eng für 8 personen
    Das haus hat eine sehr ruhige lage und ist gut gepflegt.die aussicht auf den hafen ist hervorragend. Die schlafmöglichkeien sind gut jedoch wirds mit 8 personen sehr eng da es nur eine küche gibt in der man sitzen kann wenn es mal schlehtes wetter hat, denn es gibt keinen raum der als wohnbereich genutzt werden könnte. in summe aber ein sehr schönes domiziel wenn man die ausenanlage bei gutem wetter voll nutzen kann. der frühstücksplatz ist einmalig.

    Ce cottage perché est idéalement situé pour des randonnées dans les "cinque terre" et la découverte de cette superbe région. Le jardin en terrasse est splendide et très bien entretenu. Nous avons apprécié les petits déjeuners et les dînes sur la terrasse qui offre une vue imprenable sur le golfe des poètes, . La maison a vraiment une âme.
