Amazing experience in a medieval house!

Alberico's house is simply enchanting and so is the hamlet of Ponzanello. You really feel like you're stepping back in time (except you have access to all the modern amenities which is great)! The location is perfect if you have a car, about a hour drive to Cinque Terre, plenty of vineyards and other medieval villages to visit in the surroundings.

This is a remote place to stay, small, quiet, old and charming. It’s really only suitable for a couple maybe with children. The owner was there to meet us. He was thorough in acquainting us with the place and its amenities. We loved it. A real step back in time.

Enchanting

The most beautiful setting, a most beautiful medieval home. We fell in love with everything there down to the very friendly cat who visited regularly. Many hiking trails and hidden places to explore. We have been traveling Europe for a month and this is by far the place I will remember most warmly. Thank you to our gracious host!

charming

This is a very characteristic and charming house. You can feel the effort, love and dedication the owner put in it. The owner is very friendly, and so are the people in this tiny medieval village.The view from the terrace is breathtaking. It is a quite remote place, excellent for those who like silence and nature.

It was a real unusual property, a rustic village house. There is a little known castle ruin a short walk up the hill. Loved the washing machine, fire, cat and the helpful owner. It is hard to find, park at the town crossroads and walk up and right. But the locals will point you to it.

Living in a castle

It is a very special cozy house with 2 storeys and an open fireplace in the kitchen. Great wood furniture. You feel like in a castle. Only problem for my dog- there is a kind of ladder to the storey with the bedroom. Not good for it. Otherwise great big bed! Nice little terrace. Everything there in the kitchen that you need . Very friendly host! Brought firewood and chestnuts, lit the fire for us, roasted the chestnuts. We had nice conversations. Great! Only disadvantage: there is nothing in the village, no shop no restaurant. You have to drive for everything quite a bit. But if you are looking for peace and quietness, it's the ideal place:)))

Traumhaft gelegen und puristisch eingerichtet!

Hier passt Preis und Leistung. Es ist puristisch eingerichtet, aber alles, was man braucht, ist im Haus vorhanden. Das Haus besticht durch die Lage: Bombastische Aussicht und das mittelalterliche Dorf sind unglaublich! Der Vermieter kam am letzten Abend vorbei und wir haben uns trotz unterschiedlicher Sprachen köstlich amüsiert. Ein sehr freundlicher Mensch und ein tolles, sehr einfaches Haus, so wie man es von einer mittelalterlichen Anlage erwartet.

Proprietario molto cordiale e disponibile. Appartamento work in progress ma tranquillamente attrezzato per soggiorni di uno o più giorni. Zona tranquillissima tipica dei piccoli borghi di montagna. Un po' ostico il parcheggio nelle vicinanze. Utile come zona da appoggio per visitare Fosdinovo e dintorni.

Ce fut 10 jours de lacher prise, de ballades à pied, beaucoup. Et puis les 5 Terres ne sont pas loin, Pise non plus. Nous avons passé de belles vacances ! , beaucouo

Ritorno al passato

Abbiamo soggiornato qui la notte di Capodanno in un gruppo di sei amici. La casa si trova in una zona molto tranquilla dato che non solo è all’estremità dell’adorabile borgo di Ponzanello ma anche perché nello stesso sono presenti pochissimi abitanti. Quindi fa per voi se siete in cerca di relax e di allontanarvi dal caos della città. Inoltre, vista la posizione del borgo è necessario andarci in macchina ed essere anche esperti alla guida nelle strade collinari/montane. La casa è una tipica abitazione di montagna: travi in legno, arredamento rustico e un ampio caminetto. È possibile che si possa incontrare qualche piccolo insetto, ma è più che normale in questo tipo di case. È anche più ampia di quanto possa sembrare dalle foto, infatti è stata una piacevole sorpresa scoprire che oltre alle due camere, il bagno e la cucina è presente anche un’altra stanzetta (a proposito, un consiglio per il proprietario, potrebbe diventare ancora più funzionale se al posto della cassapanca fosse messo un divano-letto). Ci sono tutti gli accessori necessari: stovigliame, saponi di vari tipi, asciugamani, deodoranti per ambienti, ecc. Se alloggerete qui potreste avere il piacere di conoscere la mascotte della casa, una simpatica gattina che viene a scaldarsi al caminetto.
