Tucked away in the medieval streets of Moltedo, a peaceful village belonging to the municipality of Diano San Pietro, is the spacious Casa Pantallo.
Upon entering the house, one immediately notices the oft-frequented dining table in the middle of the kitchen-cum-living room. Here, as well as on the 2 terraces belonging to the house, you will often find the family coming together for breakfasts and meals, as well as for social evenings of games or chatting. As the house has three bedrooms and a large pull out sofa, there is plenty of space for you and your family, as well as any friends that you want to bring on holiday with you.
The sunken terrace with its beautiful laurel offers a wonderful view of Moltedo with its houses on the slopes of the lush, green valley. There are two parking spots below the house that are at your disposal and the 30 meter path up to the house, with its somewhat steep slope will keep the untrained holiday maker fit.

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.
