About this property

Il Frantoio di Flavia

A charming house located on the top floor of a renovated mill at the entrance of the medieval village of Monte Marcello, on the border between Liguria and Tuscany. It is a lovely apartment, with a large living / dining room and a wonderful view to the Apennine mountains and the whole valley of the Magra. Located between the sea and the mountains, it is ideal for those wishing to explore the area, with fantastic walks in the national coastal park. The sea is nearby, although you have to take a walk of 700 steps! The easiest option is to drive or to take the bus to Bocca di Magra or to Lerici from where there are boat trips along the coast. The house has a small terrace on top of the stone staircase; a wonderful place to sit with a morning coffee or evening with Prosecco and gaze through the white marble mountains of Carrara. Of the glazed front door opens into a living / dining room with a ceiling fan. Please note that all the windows of the house are provided with blinds with mosquito nets . A sliding door leads to a double room with a double bed or 2 single beds. It is possible to add an extra bed in case of need. A corridor on the right leads to a small kitchen with a dishwasher, followed by the bathroom with a washing machine. The spacious master bedroom has a ceiling fan and large closets. The mill is elegantly furnished with an eclectic mix of rustic and antique furniture collected by the owner's family from all over the world. The village of Montemarcello is classified as one of the most beautiful towns in Italy. Around the village, the forests of evergreen oaks are now part of a national park and are crossed by marked trails. You can use these to reach the coast, where there are the picturesque villages of Tellaro and Lerici. Further afield, you can get boats along the coast from Bocca di Magra, and visit hidden bays, or go further north towards Portovenere and the Cinque Terre, with wonderful villages along the steep slopes, often accessible only by boat or on foot.
Inland, the Magra Valley and the surrounding hills are the joy of a cyclist, with winding streets their way up to the surrounding mountains. The area was once part of the kingdom of Luni, then conquered by the Romans. The city of Luni is now an archaeological site and you can explore the remains of the Roman city. Sarzana, with its fascinating historic center is the main city in the area today.
Further afield, you can travel to Genoa in an hour and a half, and his beautifully restored harbor with small narrow streets and beautiful churches in rows, and its famous aquarium. Pisa is an hour away, Florence 2 hours, while Lucca is less than an hour.

Wonderful week in Montemarcello
We spent a wonderful week in Flavia's apartment with day trips to nearby beaches, towns and villages. The apartment is charming, well-equipped and spacious and Flavia and her mother are very kind hosts. This was our second stay and we would love to come back another time.

Between the mountains and the sea
Flavia is very nice and responsive, communication was perfect! The apartment is lovely, with great atmosphere. The ceiling fans in the living room and master bedroom really do a great job. Tap water is drinkable and there is a great system for garbage disposal. Also, there is a little library with books in Italian, English and French. The terrace has a lovely view, it is quite small though. Having meals is not too comfortable (we still did couple of times :) The kitchen is tiny, with no working space and gets super hot if you cook. There are lovely restaurants in Monte Marcello. The one downstairs is great, but also the home-made food on the main square was lovely. Bathroom is spacious, has a window with a view. The shower cabin might need some work. The bedrooms are a good size. We lacked shelves for our stuff, but there was lots of space to hang the clothes. We found our bed rather uncomfortable, our daughter was happy with hers. Going to the beach is a challenge, the stairs are a bit wild, but it gets easier and quicker every time. We went with a ten year old. The water was great, the beach very clean. All in all, we had a great time at Flavia's apartment

Wohnung top Vermieterin Flop
Wohnung ist sehr schön Dusche schon etwas älter, macht uns aber nichts außer das der Dusche Schlauch beim 2 Mal duschen in der Halterung geplatzt ist. Da wir Mountainbiker sind und Werkzeug usw dabei hatten haben wir es geflickt. Nur leider hat uns die Vermieterin jetzt nach freundlicher Verabschiedung. Eine Email Geschickt das von unserer Kredit Karte 150 Euro Schadensersatz!!!!?? Eingezogen werden ( auch wegen einem Fleck auf der Couch unter dem Bezug auf dem nur einer geschlafen hat, sieht aus wie ein 15 auf 10 cm Wasserfleck) also wir haben dort nichtmal TV geschaut oder getrunken, gegessen und schon garnichts verschüttet!!! sorry aber wir sind Gastronomen und einem Gast stellt man so etwas nicht in Rechnung schon garnicht wenn man über die kaputten Sachen persönlich gesprochen hat und von Schadensersatz absolut keine Rede war. Wir sind uns Auto gestiegen nach gegenseitig freundlicher Verabschiedung und ohne Witz nach 5 Minuten, wir waren nicht Mal im nächsten Ort kam eine Email der Vermieterin das wir die Sachen Absichlich kaputt gemacht Haben. Unverschämt Und nochmal der Schlauch war locker 5 Jahre schon in Benutzung und ist beim Duschen von selbst geplatzt, immerhin zeigt das die Dusche hat guten Druck 😅👌 aber lachen kann man darüber echt nicht wenn einem ein Verschleiß Teil in Rechnung gestellt wird und ein nicht verursachter Fleck, außer vielleicht vom Schweiß der eventuell bei 34 Grad nachts beim Schlafen entstehen kann Ich finde es sehr schade da die Wohnung und Lage wunderschön sind aber mit so Anschuldigungen will ich mich nicht mehr auseinander setzen. Außerdem geht's der Vermieterin Schienbart Finanziell nicht schlecht wenn man 2 Gärtner im Garten arbeiten lässt. Warscheinlich wären wir nicht beschuldigt worden wenn wir "alte" Menschen wären wir waren nämlich ein 18,23,und ein25 jähriger

About the host

I leave and work in Rome but I love very much to travel as I like to dscover new cultures and new landscapes. Some places are particularly important for Montemarcello is one of those!

Why they chose this property

The Frantoio house is for me very special. I rent it sometimes to selected persons... this allows me to maintain it in good conditions and do some improvements.

What makes this property unique

I am always seduced by the incredible view on the Apuan Alps and on the Magra valley that you get from nearly all the windows of the house!
