Description

The holiday house of Nido d Amore lies in the small dreamy Ligurian mountain village of Camporondo. You can relax here in peace and quiet, recovering from the stress of your usual routine. The house offers ample room for up to six people and comprises three double bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen very conveniently fitted out in a modern style, and a spacious, bright living room. If you would like to unwind in the evening over a fine glass of wine, there are two roomy terraces and a balcony to choose from, where you will discover wonderful views over the mountains and the many lush olive groves.

location details: Diano San Pietro



This municipality is formed of two towns on the sunny slopes of the San Pietro Valley. Dominating the lower town is the parish church, one of the most important in the area (the christening font dates from the eleventh century). All that is left of the original late mediaeval building is the bell tower. It is dedicated to Saints Peter and Paul and was reconstructed in Baroque style in the second half of the eighteenth century. The parvis is paved with pebbles and it was surrounded by a wall in 1564 as a defence against Saracen invasions. The interior preserves a painting of the martyrdom of San Giovanni Battista attributed to Giovanni Battista Paggi and a fine seventeenth-century marble pulpit.


Along the road to Diano San Pietro there are two buildings that were once used for control and defence of the valley: the square "Camandone" barracks building and the "Molino Arduino", a fortified mill.


Just outside the town, when you have crossed the bridge over the Rio San Pietro, you will come to the district of Colla, where you can admire the recently-restored sanctuary of the Madonna della Neve. In the church of the Natività di Maria in Borganzo, you can see a fine poliptych by Antonio Brea: the Madonna della Consolazione (1518). There is a very old humpback bridge over the San Pietro at Roncagli. At one time, the valley was full of mills producing Taggia olive oil. Besides olive-oil production, the local economy is based on the cultivation of vegetables, fruit and basil, which is the main ingredient of the typical local liqueur. Among the many local summer festivals, the most famous is the one dedicated to a pasta dish called "trenette al pesto", which is accompanied by a classic Ligurian wine called Pigato.


Diano San Pietro lies, if seen from the sea, upwards and right of Diano Marina. In Diano Marina there is a very good infrastructure with countless restaurants, shops, cafés, bars and discos, as well as tennis courts, bowling, bicycle rentals and many other diverse sporting opportunities. Many excursions can be undertaken from here.


From Diano San Pietro, the road follows the same named river(which powered the many olive mills) to Diano Borganzo, whose hamlets all lie on a steep slope. Here you will find the town church, Natività di Maria, built in the 19th century, where you can see a fine polyptych by Antonio Brea: the Madonna della Consolazione (1518). In the small Roncagli, a small medieval bridge over the San Pietro river leads you down the road to Virgili and Diano Arentino.

Soweit ganz gut - Staubsauger wäre gut um zB.Betten absaugen zu können. Sonst war alles vorhanden was wir brauchten. Wir waren sehr oft in Diano Marina Bootsausflug shoppen baden


16.07.2011 - 30.07.2011, Wolfgang T. (DE)

Nichts. War alles vorhanden! DANKE!!!!!


09.07.2011 - 16.07.2011, Odd R. (NO)

Die Ausstattung entsprach vollkommen unseren Geschmack. Außenbereich war klasse angelegt, wirklich super. Imperia, Pizza in der Innenstadt zum Mitnehmen für ? 12 (Pizza hatte Durchmesser von 50 cm!) - extrem preiswert und super lecker, da vor den Augen frisch zubereitet. Unbedingt Altstadt in Cervo besuchen (Nachbarort!). Vielen Dank, aber ich habe bereits alles gesagt! Wir haben uns sehr, sehr gut erholt und das Haus war wirklich wunderschön!


14.08.2010 - 28.08.2010, Peter G. (DE)

Mehr gibt es nicht zu sagen, da alles bestens war.


24.07.2010 - 07.08.2010, Anna B. (AT)

Den Ort und die Kirche von Cervo, dort kann man auch wunderbar baden (Kiesstrand). Ein perfektes familienfreundliches Restaurant (Pizzeria) befindet sich gleich vor dem Bahnübergang bevor man in die Innenstadt von Diano Marina kommt. Leider haben wir den Namen vergessen. Wir waren sehr zufrieden und kommen vielleicht wieder! Leider ist die Anreise etwas weit von uns (950km)aber wenn man 2 Wochen bleibt, zahlt es sich aus!


10.07.2010 - 17.07.2010, Maria K. (DE)

Es war ein schöner Urlaub


22.05.2010 - 05.06.2010, Bernd G. (DE)

Schöne Radtouren in Täler möglich. Empfehlenswert: Radweg der alten Bahntrasse von St. Lorenzo nach Sanremo am Meer entlang insgesamz guter Rahmen für erholsamen Urlaub.


01.05.2010 - 15.05.2010, sandra o. (NL)

restaurant beneden in het dorp tegenover de kerk is leuk en goed!


05.09.2009 - 19.09.2009, Tanja C. (DE)

Triora ist auf jeden Fall einen Ausflug wert. Die mittelalterliche Stadt hat ihren ganz eigenen Charme.


15.08.2009 - 29.08.2009, Alexander Z. (DE)

Alles in bester Ordnung
