Villa Sasseta
About This Villa
Villa Sasseta occupies a truly idyllic situation, nestled deep within the Ligurian green hills behind the famous Cinque Terre, near the border of Tuscany, with stunning views across the lush and dramatic countryside. The villa offers a real escape from it all, with total privacy and seclusion on offer. It’s the perfect place to unwind and relax after days spent walking or cycling around the scenic immediate area.
The views from the extensive outside space are simply breathtaking, with nothing but trees and hills for miles. But it’s also easy to go out and enjoy an evening meal, with the closest restaurant being just a 10-minute drive away.
Villa Sasseta features a beautiful blend of traditional charm and contemporary style. An abundance of wood furnishings and features creates a sense of warmth, with modern facilities ensuring your complete comfort. Two independent buildings offer flexible accommodation.
The first home can accommodate up to six people across three double bedrooms. Three beautiful bathrooms are on offer also. The ground floor open-plan living/dining/kitchen space is great for socialising and unwinding after a long day exploring the area.
The second house accommodates up to 10 people across five double bedrooms including a sofa-bed. There are three bathrooms in total also, meaning no arguments over who gets to go in first in the mornings! Spend evenings chatting and watching television in the bright and airy living/dining/kitchen area as dinner cooks.
There’s plenty of space to relax and soak up the views and dine al fresco outside, with several seating and dining areas on offer. The most attractive is a shaded, pergola area with plenty of seating and a built-in barbecue. The rolling, lawned gardens are home to a large, private swimming pool with sun loungers and an outdoor shower.
Drive around 35km to coastal Levanto or a little further the Cinque Terre village of Monterosso al Mare to enjoy a day out on the beach. Levanto is also a great base for exploring all five of the Cinque Terre seaside villages, either by train or on foot.
Alternatively, head to the historic town of La Spezia and catch the train from there. The Cinque Terre are ruggedly-beautiful villages that are dotted with colourful houses and charm with their authentic, fishing-community atmosphere.
