Description

The romantic frame house lies amid olive trees in Diano Arentino. It offers enough room for 2 people with its bedroom with king size bed, its bathroom with shower, its breakfast kitchen with a rustic wooden bench and its comfortable terrace. You can spend your holiday twosome, with or without pet in this beautiful wooden house, where you can discover the ligurian outback. Have your breakfast or taste a good wine under shelter of the olive trees. You can also try backing pizzas or bread, or simply laze in the hammock.

location details: Diano Arentino



The Diano valley area was inhabited by the Ligurian Ingauni tribe, who were stockbreeders and farmers. In Roman times, the woodland was sacred to the goddess Diana and there was probably a temple dedicated to her. In 1772, the valley towns, including Arentino, were amalgamated to form the "Comunitas Diani", which had its own civic statutes and was independent from the Diano manorial administration. Diano Arentino did not actually become a municipality until 1924.


Seen from above, it has the appearance of a number of built-up areas separated by a strip of land on which olive trees are cultivated and which marks the border between the municipal districts. The parish church of Santa Margherita preserves a painting of the Madonna del Rosario. Another picture shows Sant' Antonino and Santa Margherita.


The municipal territory is known for its production of superior-quality olive oil and is composed of two districts: Borrello and Evigno. The district of Diano Borrello was probably founded by the Benedictines, as is suggested by the choice of San Michele Arcangelo as patron saint. The Romanesque church dedicated to the saint preserves a fine sixteenth-century poliptych by Brea.


The town of Evigno lies at the foot of Monte Scortegabecco, which is an attraction for tourists who come to admire the ancient church of San Martino, also probably founded by the Benedictines. The green ridge of Pizzo d'Evigno has been pasture land since time immemorial, as can be seen from the numerous "caselle" (rustic dry-stone buildings), the earliest dwellings of the Ingauni. A further sign of early settlement in the Pizzo d'Evigno area are the three "neviere": man-made cavities surrounded by dry-stone walls that were once used for catchment and storage of snow and ice.

Das Holzhäuschen ist eigentlich perfekt eingerichtet, sauber, neu und praktisch, sicher nicht luxuriös, aber das erwartet man dort auch nicht. Es war alles da, was wir brauchten. Von dem Restaurant "Panorama dianese" in Evigno waren wir begeistert. Abweichen von Ihren Angaben kostet das Menü (feste Abfolge) nicht 19 Euro sondern 22 Euro (kleiner Ausgabe ohne 1. oder 2.Platte). Aber allein schon die ca. 15 verschiedenen Antipasti waren ihr Geld mehr als wert. Das komplette Menü mit zwei Zwischengerichten und zwei Hauptmahlzeiten plus Dessert, Kaffee und eine Flasche Wein kostete dann für uns zwei genau 50,- Euro. Wir waren begeistert! Wir haben die Woche im Casetta dei Contadini sehr genossen und können das Holzhäuschen all denen empfehlen, die auch mit einer einfacheren, aber sehr sauberen und romantischen Unterkunft, zufrieden sind. Wir haben uns sofort wohlgefühlt im Olivenhain in Diano Arentino.

Es war alles Notwendige vorhanden, ev. neue Liegestühle. Restaurant in Diano Roncagli, sehr hilfreich war für uns die Beschreibung von BlumenRiviera.de zu den Hundestränden - unbedingt ins Reisegepäck packen Wir waren insgesamt sehr zufrieden, sowohl mit der Abwicklung als auch mit der Unterkunft. Die Angaben betreffen nur winzige Schönheitsfehlter, die jedoch keinen Einfluss auf die Qualität des Urlaubes hatten. Ausserdem vermiitelte uns die Möglichkeit, mit Ihnen bei Unklarheiten Handykontakt zu haben, ein Sicherheitsgefühl.
