Corte Paganini

Francesca and her husband were amazing, very friendly, great communication and a lot of tips for things to do and see. Nice apartment in a picturesque location (medieval village), with a short drive from La Spezia and access to Cinque Terre.

Could add air conditioning or a fan in the apartment for warm summer nights

The place is very charming and have a very nice atmosphere. It is a group of houses in a tiny village on the hill. The owner have installed many terrasses with cozy lights for the night. The owner is also very kind and they gave us many advises to visit the area.

A hidden away gem of a place in the quiet hills above La Spezia. Francesca is a wonderful host, was eager to make our stay perfect, and was extremely helpful with directions and ideas. Easy parking provided you don't mind some steps up. Gorgeous views. We were charmed!

Wi fi is a bit of a challenge because of the thick stone walls but that wouldn't stop us going back

The host was very nice, helpful and ready to answer everything about info on the area around. The building was traditional and the room was very cosy and brings you to another era in the past. Very clean and had everything one should need during his/her stay there.

Unfortunately the location was not as we expected. The road from La Spezia to Caste was very difficult even for an experienced driver, although it is a very short distance. Also, as far as the rooms are concerned, because they are in a traditional old building, you could hear noisy neighbors all day long...

We had such a lovely stay at Corte Paganini! Francesca and her husband put a lot of love in their apartments. It’s very clean, you have everything you need and the atmosphere is just overall very charming. There is a fire pit in the courtyard which is really cozy. The view above the mountains is great, especially as you explore Cinque Terre during the busy months, it can be a relief to be just 10-15 minutes outside the city, enjoy the peace and quiet yet still be super close to the city. The drive up to the house seems adventurous at first but is completely fine. We would definitely love to come back! We also got great recommendations from Francesca and her husband for things to do. Thank you a lot for everything :)

Location. Picturesque house, lucky apartment with perfect views. Poosibility to practice again driving little serpentine roads.

One of us missed music background in house resttaurant, other on was ok with quietness.
