Beyond the gates of Villa Torretta, the tiny historical village of Castiglione Vara comprises a parish church called San Remigio, an oratory, a bar, a grocery store and a Q8 petrol station. Just a few kilometres away there are shops for most needs in the villages of Piana Battolla and Ceparana. La Spezia is fifteen kilometres from the villa, from where one can reach the famous Cinque Terre National Park along the coast line from Portovenere to Monterosso.
This is a protected stretch of rocky coastline and the name derives from the five dramatically situated small villages that cling to the cliff face down to the sea. Once only accessible by sea, today these villages may be reached by road and rail. Continuing further up the coastline towards Genoa, you may visit Italy’s most intimate and distinctive sea resort of Portofino, with its exclusive yacht harbour, close to the fashionable seaside towns of Rapallo and Santa Margherita. Villa La Torretta is reached through electrically operated gates into its grounds with an orchard to one side, a double garage to the other and grass laid to the front. It looks inviting enough as it is, so the rear of the house comes as a shock. In expansive grounds there is a grassed badminton court, a swimming pool, a patio with table tennis, a large stone built barbecue with pizza oven, a covered dining table and a covered outdoor sitting room. By the rear of the garage is an outdoor shower room with WC that conveniently serves this area and a laundry room with washing machine and tumble drier. The interior is equipped with a fabulous stainless steel kitchen with every utensil imaginable will delight the cook. Ground floor: The entrance to the villa is through a furnished hall with book case. To the right lies the sitting room (sits 10) comprising a large HD TV, video recorder, DVD player, and an English language video library. To the left is the dining room (sits 12) and high tec kitchen (sits 6), which comprises a large 5 hob cooker, two ovens (one electric and one mains gas), a double stainless steel fridge freezer, microwave oven and an espresso coffee machine and HD TV. First floor: The first floor comprises four double bedrooms with spacious 3m high ceilings and two double windows. Two bedrooms are reached through separate dressing rooms with balconies. All bedrooms and bathrooms are fitted with roll down see through mosquito nets. In addition each bedroom offers spacious wardrobe facilities with well stocked bookcases and a TV set. Two bathrooms with bath tubs and shower facilities. One bathroom is fitted with a Jacuzzi. Bed linen and towels are provided weekly. You must bring your own pool towels. A refundable security deposit is payable on arrival at the villa to the owner or the keyholder. Approximately 250 EUR.
