About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Il Pettirosso-Your hillside base for Cinque Terre, Lerici & Tuscany-with parking

Escape the crowds. Keep everything within reach.

Perched on a peaceful hillside above Arcola, Il Pettirosso is a freshly renovated countryside retreat perfectly positioned between three of Liguria's greatest treasures: the iconic Cinque Terre, the dreamy Gulf of Poets, and the hills of northern Tuscany.

While the famous villages fill up with day-trippers, you'll return each evening to birdsong, mountain air, and a pergola with views across the Apuan Alps.

The space

Bright, fully independent 40 sqm apartment — your own entrance, your own terrace, complete privacy. Well-equipped kitchen, comfortable bedroom with quality linens, sofa bed for an extra guest, access to laundry room on the property, fast Wi-Fi.

Explore by car — everything is close.
A car is recommended to make the most of the area. Free private parking is included — no hunting for spaces after a long day.

15 min — Lerici beach & ferry to Cinque Terre / Portovenere
25 min — Cinque Terre National Park
25 min — Carrara marble caves & Apuan Alps
15 min — La Spezia Centrale station (trains to Cinque Terre)
up to 1h — Lucca & Pisa

Every season has its magic. Beyond summer, this corner of Liguria truly shines. September brings warm seas, empty trails, and the grape harvest in the Arcola hills. October reveals golden vineyards and truffle season in nearby Lunigiana. Spring arrives early — by May the terraces are in bloom and the Cinque Terre paths are yours alone.

Perfect for couples, two friends, or a small family with one child. Baby cot and high chair available.

Why guests love it:
★ "A welcome calm after the exhausting crowds of Cinque Terre"— Marie-Pierre Vega
★ "Peaceful, comfortable, hosts who truly care"— Famille Verdier

Séjour au calme près de La Spezia

Bon séjour dans le gîte au bout d'une petite route après la vieille ville d'Arcola, au calme bienvenu, loin de l'agitation de La Spezia et des villes et villages de la Riviera. Egle est très agréable et fait tout pour aider à passer un bon séjour.

Bellissima location

Abbiamo passato 3 notti in compagnia della nostra cagnolina Olivia. Accoglienza e disponibilità massime da parte dell’host e della sua famiglia. Il posto è situato in zona verde e tranquilla ma in pochi minuti è possibile raggiungere tutte le località più turistiche. Le strutture fanno parte di un più ampio progetto di sviluppo e valorizzazione del territorio con un occhio di riguardo alla tradizione ed alla sostenibilità. Abbiamo anche acquistato dell’ottimo olio bio prodotto in loco. Consigliato dunque a chi desidera conciliare pace e tranquillità con la conoscenza del territorio.

Am Ende der Straße

Das Haus von Elias liegt am Ende einer schmalen, teilweise etwas steilen Straße. In etwas mehr als 5 Minuten ist ist man mit dem Auto in der Altstadt von Arcola, die ein wunderbares Labyrint aus alten Gassen und Häusern am Berg ist (zu Fuß haben wir knapp 15 Minuten gebraucht). Das Haus hat fast alles, was man für einen Ferienaufenthalt braucht. Elias und seine Familie sind hilfsbereit und per WhatsApp gut zu erreichen. Als wir nach einem zweiten Topf gefragt habe, hat Elias ihn am Abend gleich vorbei gebracht. Die Terasse geht nach Westen, sodass wir beim Abendessen einen wunderbaren Sonnenuntergang als Kulisse hatten. Leider liegt die im Inserat abgebildete Tischgruppe unter Weinranken auf der anderen Straßenseite, sodass wir diesen Platz nicht genutzt haben, weil es auch kein Tablett gab, um bequem Geschirr herüber zu tragen. Von dem beschriebenen Grundstück mit Obst- und Olivenbäumen haben wir nicht viel entdecken können, weil das Grundstück steil abfällt und teilweise nicht begehbar war und uns auch nicht gezeigt wurde, wo wir hätten gehen können. Das war sehr schade.

Très bon séjour

Merci à Egle et Elias pour leur accueil. Nos hôtes sont venus nous chercher dans le village pour que nous ne nous perdions pas. Ils vivent juste à côté mais sont dune discrétion remarquable. Leur propriété est un ecrin de verdure,plein d'arbres fruitiers et de bonnes odeurs. Le logement était très bien pour nous trois, avec une jolie terrasse. Un calme bienvenu après la foule éprouvante des Cinque Terre. A bientôt !

Relaxing stay out of town

The cottage and location were really beautiful and relaxing. It was a little too remote and out of town for our needs as we had planned to visit Cinque Terre and the surrounding areas. We had to drive down the hill into town to have dinner which wasn't too convenient after a long day of driving and sight seeing.

Great hideaway in the tuscan hills

We head a very peaceful and recovering stay at Egle's and Elias' place. The silent atmosphere was great and we really enjoyed keeping a bit of distance to the crowded coast areas but still having them in quick reach if we felt like it. Especially the caring and friendly contact with Egle and Elias is remarkable! Thanks again the two of you for hosting us last summer!

Alles Tip top schöne spannende Umgebung

Sehr nette Vermieter. Das Häusle ist fröhlich freundlich eingerichtet. Super warm 22 Grad auch in der kälteren Jahreszeit da Zentralheizung. Und zusätzlich darf man noch mit dem Holzofen ein gemütliches Raumklima erleben. Das Haus liegt am Ende einer Sackgasse. Ruhe pur. Ich hab das Häusle mit eigenem PP und Terrasse geliebt. Küche ist auch alles da außer einem Wasserkocher... für Teetrinker fehlt dieser. Sie haben eigenes 100% BIO Olivenöl. Wer die Ruhe mag kann die Umgebung mit wunderschönen Dörfer in oder außerhalb der 5 Terre in angenehmer Distanz erkunden. Weg zum Haus geteert aber eng und rumpelig. Nicht für tiefe Spirtwagen aber sonst kein Problem ..

Herrlicher Ausblick

Das kleine Häuschen hat uns gut gefallen, der Blick vom Balkon ist sehr schön! Es war sehr sauber und mit allem Notwendigen ausgestattet, der nette Vermieter wohnt nebenan und ist per WhatsApp jederzeit erreichbar und gibt Tipps und hilft mit allem weiter! Das Häuschen liegt sehr ruhig und etwas abgelegen, was wir aber gesucht haben! Man ist schnell in Lerici, am Meer, in La Spezia. Unbedingt einen Besuch wert ist die Osteria unten in Arcola: es gibt leckere Panigacchis! Einzige (unbedeutende) Nachteile: keine Tür zwischen Wohn- und Schlafzimmer und keine Morgensonne auf dem Balkon (ist im Sommer aber eher ein Vorteil, wir waren im Herbst da).
