Cincilla

The farmhouse is located in a rural setting, at the top of a small, peaceful village Ligure which mainly runs along the old mule track, which continues in a matter of seconds in the open countryside: climbing you walk through ancient olive groves, plants and herbs up to about 600 meters above sea level and then get to the oak woodlands to sparse vegetation and barren of higher altitudes, where most of the year you can meet cows, horses and goats in freedom. The tranquility and peace are guaranteed. Down the valley instead, you find yourself short in the typical coastal life, bars, restaurants and pizzerias, sandy beaches, gravel or stone, according to taste (free or equipped), but also shopping, events, museums.
