About this apartment rental

The luminous property is surrounded by the wonderful nature of the Ligurian cost, characterised by the typical colours and odours of the Mediterranean scrub. Thanks to the terraces and open spaces, guests can relax and enjoy the outdoor life: you can dine or have breakfast comfortably both inside and outside the home. The large terrace which is accessed from the french door of the kitchen is ideal for many friends or families who dine together under the stars! From the two terraces in front of the apartment you look at the endless sea and the rocky coast with fortifications that the Republic of Genoa has built in front of the sea.
The property is just few minutes of walk from two small beaches while you can reach the other beaches walking along the scenic paths along the cliffs overlooking the sea (look photos!).
Framura is a peaceful and wonderful place , almost secret, from which you can, however, easily reach the most exclusive and fashionable holiday resorts as Portofino. There is just two stops of the local train (direction: La Spezia) to reach the famous Cinque Terre. You can organize trips to other villages in Liguria, like Portovenere, Levanto, Sestri Levante and Portofino, or visit cities like La Spezia, Pisa and Genoa: it takes 2 hours or less by train in opposite directions. In summer and spring, trains are very frequent and the property has the advantage of being very close to the station. Despite the proximity to these major tourist destinations, Framura is a country whose beauty was always carefully preserved: it is not possible from years to build large hotels on this coast and therefore the place is out of the mass tourism.
Recently it was made a new bike path that starts from Scalo (from the small port you take the elevator or the stairs to reach the bike hire and the beginning of the track) to reach Bonassola and Levanto . The best beaches are Portopidocchio in one direction and the Arena in the other.
Framura is strongly loved by those who want a holiday in contact with nature that here is particularly lively and almost wild.
To appreciate the little fractions of Framura: Anzo, Ravecca, Setta, Costa, Castagnola (which are pedestrian), it is better (and healthier) to walk ,so the place is more suitable for not sedentary families or families, also with small children, which take into account the peculiarities of the place.
Among the sports you can practise in Framura, in the summer you can swim in the sea and do scuba diving (reference: FramuraSub). Surf is practiced in near places (as Levanto) in spring and autumn: Levanto hosted surf events of high value as the "big Quicksilver wave invitational "in 2000 and 2001 and the" Blue Salomon Games "in 2005, events that finally led to the consolidation of a true culture of surfing in Levanto.
In spring and autumn is practiced with enthusiasm trekking in Cinque Terre and neighboring lands and railway stations between La Spezia and Sestri Levante are much frequented both by lovers of a simply, healthy walk as by experienced trekkers of the Appennines
The lighted bike path that connects (through the abandoned train tunnels) Framura to Levanto via Bonassola is affordable by anyone, another thing, for trained people only, is to face the routes illustrated by PisteCiclabili.com site, for example, the dorsal Levanto- Soviore!

We enjoyed our stay. The walk up and down from the beach can be tough for anyone with even slight mobility issues so something to keep in mind when considering. Otherwise we enjoyed it very much.

We really enjoyed our stay in Framura at Giovanna's house! The house with no frills overlooking the sea in the rugged hillsides of the quiet town of Framura was the perfect way to unwind from life for our stay.The house has the feeling of a summer home, with basic decorations, but everything you need, such as comfortable beds, kitchen with everything you need to prepare meals, hot water, outdoor shower, a washing machine, etc. There is no wifi, so cell service is recommended. The house has gorgeous views over the sea, and you can even hear the waves! To reach the house, one must go up 157 stairs and a small section of road to reach the entrance. It takes roughly 5 minutes to reach the train station going down, and 9 minutes to come up. The beach area is just below the train station, and is quite a nice rocky beach, with beautiful clear water. There is a bar right on the beach to grab snacks and drinks. Two towns up from Framura has a grocery store, bar and delicious pizzeria. We enjoyed the walk up to the town and back after a meal.From Framura, one can rent bikes to bike along the bike path through the old train tunnels to the towns of Bonassola and Levanto. We really enjoyed this activity as a family, and took half of the day to stop in the towns and at the beaches. We also took the train to a few of the towns of Cinque Terre one day. It was easy to take the train there and after a day of crowds and beautiful views, we were happy to be back to peaceful and rugged Framura

We have been two families with teenagers and younger kids. There is plenty of things to do around and the train connection is convenient. The house is big enough for at least 9 persons. The beach close to the Framura station is nice. However if you prefer a sand beach you can easily take the train or go by bike through the tunnel to Bonassola. I really enjoyed the time. Kirchen is well equipped. We brought a water boiler with us as it is not included. Not a big deal. All instructions in the house are helpful. Restaurant up the hill as well as the small shop are good. Thanks for the great time we were able to spent.

This is a rustic Italian holiday home In sleepy framura. Near enough to walk to the beach and far away enough to escape the crowds of Cinque Terra. A lot of good times and a great stay!

Wonderful Holiday. Giovanna did everything to make our stay easy and without stress. House is amazing, clean, open, light with great places to eat and talk together. Framura is enchanted and unspoiled. Secluded beaches close by and the small port directly below the house offer great swimming opportunities. We will all return again.

3 Terrassen und Meerblick
Wir waren positiv überrascht vom Haus. 3 Terrassen. Alle Zimmer mit Meerblick. Netter und schneller Kontakt mit der Vermieterin Zu Fuß ca. 10 Minuten zum Strand. Sehr schöne Küste. Strände mit Kies. Nächster Sandstrand in Bonassola und Levanto. Super Radwege in alten Bahntunnels mit spekatkulären Ausblicken auf das Meer und Badestellen über Bonassola bis Levanto (circa 5 km). Radverleih am Bahnhof Framura vorhanden. Sonst gibt es außer 2 Strandbars nichts in der Nähe des Ferienhauses. Nächste Einkaufmöglichkeiten und Bar+Restaurant in Framura weiter oben auf dem Berg. Zu Fuß ca. 20 Minuten. Es fährt auch ab und zu ein Bus. Oder mit Zug, Auto oder Fahrrad zum Einkaufen nach Bonassola (ca. 2 km durch den Radweg-Bahntunnel) oder Levanto. Die Bahn liegt unterhalb des Hauses, deshalb nicht ganz ruhig aber für uns war es in Ordnung. Die Straße vor dem Haus ist nicht stark befahren. Aber manche Autos hupen an den engen Kurven, was vor allem nachts und früh morgens nerven kann.

Ein wunderbares großzügiges Haus in sehr schöner Lage, Meerblick aus allen Zimmern. Es war wirklich alles da, vom Fön über Geschirrtücher, Mülltüten bis zu Malfarben und vielen interessanten Büchern. Der Fernseher hat uns nicht gefehlt. 5 Minuten zum kleinen Strand, auch mit Kleinkindern gut zu bewältigen. 15 Minuten den Berg hoch zum Einkauf in Setta. Nah zum Bahnhof, damit schnell in vielen interessanten Orten Italiens, nah zum Wandern, rundum genial. Wir kommen gerne wieder! Danke Giovanna Christine und Familie
