About this property

Pian della Chiesa, Dolinetta - nature, wine, paths, sea and shared pool

Ideally located for exploring the Cinque Terre coast, Liguria and northern Tuscany. Dolinetta, part of an 8-hectare estate, is an idyllic cultivated basin hidden in the oak woods on a hill overlooking the sea that offers accommodation for 4 people. Next to our terraced Cabernet Franc vineyard you can enjoy our shared 10mx 3m pool with 4 sun loungers and a Balinese bed.
Dolinetta has a beautiful pergola shaded by vines. A table is located under the pergola while further on there are triple beds. The central room is accessed from both sides through large doors; there is a kitchen area in the back, on the right, with a dining table and chairs in front.On the left comfortable sofas punctuate the living area, with satellite TV on the wall.The bedroom on the right is a double, with a window on the front, and a private bathroom with shower on the back. The other bedroom mirrors the first and is a double, and also has a private bathroom with a shower in the back.
Dolinetta, and her sister Dolina, have recently been refurbished and converted, and both overlook a large lawn in front of the estate's vineyard. The two houses are separated by a Mediterranean scrub which guarantees privacy. The vineyard was planted on a tiny green plain that characterizes this limestone landscape. The surrounding woods were once all cultivated and are intertwined with beautiful dry limestone walls, so dense that they form elevated paths.We have carefully restored these old walls and reintroduced crops, carefully chosen to suit the landscape and situation.You will find fruit trees scattered around the older oaks and pines and small fenced fields of vegetable gardens, artichoke plants or potatoes. The houses have also received a new green life and are self-sufficient for both electricity and hot water, making this a very eco-friendly place to stay.
We produce an organic red wine called 'Margot'. Very fast Starlink WiFi, ideal for remote working.
Central heating is available but not included in winter. One meter will determine the cost (€ 5 per m3). Alternatively, a lump sum can be quoted.
CITR CODE: 011016-AGR-0003
- Pian della Chiesa is a 40 hectares estate that sits on top of the Caprione peninsula, 900 meters from the Mediterranean and 350 meters above sea level. 
It has different accommodation solutions: Murella (host 6), Dolinetta (host 4), Bungalow (host 4) and Concara (host 2).
It is in an ideal position for exploring the hill villages and coast of the Cinque Terre, Liguria and Northern Tuscany. 
Set in a Natural Park that is mainly made up of typical Mediterranean woods of umbrella pines, helms and Turkish oaks, woven with paths, and bordering the beautiful and steep coastline of Southern Liguria. It is ideally set for exploring the small villages on the coast, with delicious fish restaurants and hidden coves from which to swim. 
The Cinque Terre are easily reachable, with miles of walking paths on the craggy coastline, punctuated by villages clinging to the edge of the coast, with steep vineyards where the grapes are collected in mini-funicular train arrangements. 
Alternatively you might head east, towards the Apennines and the Apuan Alps, made of the famous Carrara marble so loved by Michelangelo. Deep valleys hold traces of the Romans and of the ancient indigenous population called the Lunis. The mountains also harbour delicious restaurants and charming villages worth exploring. 
The classic cities of Tuscany are also not far away, with Pisa and Lucca around an hour away, while Florence is just under 2 hours.

Idylle
Idyllisch, etwas abseits gelegene schöne Unterkunft umgeben von Weinstöcken. Sympathische Vermieter, sehr entgegenkommend. Geeignet für Menschen, die gerne Wandern und sich abseits vom Touristenrummel erholen möchten.

Ein traumhafter Urlaub im Herbst
Ruhig und entspannt verbrachten wir eine wunderbare Woche in Pian della Chiesa. Das Häuschen Dolinetta ist ausgesprochen geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Wir fühlten uns dort sehr wohl. Die Ausstattung ist prima und man kann sich vor Ort sehr gut selbst versorgen. Die Wanderwege starten gleich hinter dem Haus. Das ist super. Ottavio ist ein sehr netter und aufmerksamer Gastgeber und hat uns viele wertvolle Tipps gegeben. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Un petit paradis !
Nous avons passé 5 jours fantastiques à la Dolinetta où nous n'aurions pas pu être mieux reçus par Ottavio, notre hôte, qui a été hyper disponible. Pian della Chiesa est un petit paradis entouré de vignes, de verdure et de poules : l'endroit parfait pour déconnecter. Idéalement place

About the host

Host profile image
Farmers since 2008 after years of office work.
From our grapes we have started producing an excellent natural red wine called 'Margot'. A blend of Syrah, Massaretta and Merlot vines. A small production of less than 2500 bottles integrally produced in our small underground winery. Certified Organic and no sulphates added. We produce also the 'Margot Terrazze' aged 15 months in our wood 750Lt barrel.
Our extra virgin cold pressed olive oil is excellent but still negligible (55 litres only). Not yet for sale but our 250 young olives trees are growing...

We also take care of our vegetable garden, hen house and bee hives.

Why they chose this property

Ideally located within easy reach of Tuscany's famous destinations (Pisa & Lucca 1 hour/ Florence just under two), Pian della Chiesa is also an ideal base from which to explore the wild beauty of the Natural Park with its secret coves and beaches,, charming coastal villages, and forests of holm and turkey oaks, and umbrella pines. The Cinque Terre are just around the corner, with their famous villages crammed picturesquely between sea and cliff, and vineyards so steep that they have to be harvested by mini funiculars. To the east tower the Apennines and Apuan Alps, made from the shining white marble of Carrara so beloved of Michelangelo. Deeply carved valleys still have Roman remains and even vestiges of the original indigenous tribe, the Lunis.

What makes this property unique

You will be plunged in the nature surrounded by oak trees and vineyards. The area around Montemarcello is beautiful and the epitome of Mediterranean coastline - the smell of resin from the umbrella pines drifts around the limestone outcrops that hang high above the coast. Boats can take you round to secret coves at the bottom of the cliffs, and then on to little villages with wonderful fish restaurants. The Cinque Terre are at a stone's throw, with miles of walking paths on the craggy coastline, punctuated by villages clinging to the edge of the coast, with steep vineyards where the grapes are collected in mini-funicular train arrangements! Closer to home, the villages of Tellaro and Fiascherino have swimming from rocky outcrops or sandy coves and fish restaurants with local sparkling white wine. If the heat is getting too much head in opposite direction for the Apuan Alps made of white Carrara marble and dotted with medieval villages.
