Quiet, hilly location, apartment with a view of the sea

The apartment is located on the first floor of an historic building in Carignano, a small village in the heart of Lunigiana, a region nestled between the Apuan Alps and the Ligurian Sea. It is the perfect place to enjoy a vacation surrounded by nature, yet close to the sea. It serves as an ideal base for exploring the various picturesque nearby towns, as well as the Cinque Terre, or for day trips to cities of art such as Pisa, Lucca, Florence, and Genoa.

The apartment consists of:
a kitchen equipped with an induction cooktop, microwave, refrigerator (without a freezer), and kitchenware;
a bedroom with a double bed offering a view of the valley;
a bathroom with a shower. A folding camp bed for a third person can be provided.

Guests may use the garden, which is accessed from the left side of the house (as seen from the apartment entrance). The owners occasionally use part of the garden, but the area with the hammock, deck chairs, and table is reserved for the guests’ exclusive use, except for brief periods when the owners need to use it for water supply or maintenance.

During the cold season (October through March), you may light the pellet stove, which the owners will provide upon request. You may not light the stove between May and September (in accordance with Italian law).

The road to Carignano is a typical hill road in this area, winding through vineyards and woods, offering scenic views and featuring several curves.

Carignano is a very small village with no supermarkets, bars, or pharmacies. For these or other necessities, you can go to Sarzana, which is just 6 km away (a 15-minute drive).

Since public transportation in the area is limited, we recommend staying in Carignano only if you are traveling by car.

You can park your car about 5 meters from the apartment to load and unload your luggage. The parking lot in the small square (50 meters from the house) is often full. However, you’ll certainly find a spot at the entrance to the village (about 200 meters from the house).

My family and I live on the upper floor of the same house, so we’re available to provide any information you may need during your stay or to help with anything else you require.
We’d be happy to recommend the most interesting places to visit in the area based on your interests.
