4 Bedroom Apartment in Pigna

Think of long lazy summer days, spent in a haze of late breakfasts at the village coffee bar just next door, cappuccino, freshly squeezed orange juice and mouth watering pastries or a lovely piece of fresh focaccia stuffed with ham and cheese to start your day.
Take some home cooked vegetable pie and filled foccaccia to the beach with you or to the local water holes for bathing, within walking distance. Then when you come home take a long cool drink or a glass of wine onto the balcony with you and watch the beautiful surroundings and locals going about their business, meander down to the pizzeria for an alfresco dinner and take in one of the local dances. Collect the kids from the sports field where they have been having fun with the local children in a wonderfully safe atmosphere. The apartment is big enough for two families of 4 to be comfortable if you fancy a holiday with friends or family.
The apartment is south facing and very large, all on one floor on the second floor of a three floor building in the heart of the village but on the road leading to he piazza so great for people watching on the long balcony.
The kitchen is large and well equipped for an easy holiday.
Master bedroom with an en suite WC & wardrobe, one bedroom with double bed & shelves, one bedroom with bunk beds & cupboard, and one bedroom with twin beds & shelves - in total 8 sleeping spaces. There is a big bathroom with bath and shower, wc, bidet and sink.
Large living room with a bed sofa and a chaise-long, TV & TV table with DVD/CD player, opening onto the balcony overlooking the village. Separate dining room with table and 6 chairs with balcony door / entrance to the big terrace and beautiful views of the village for beautiful dinners at home with your family and friends.
All linen and towels are supplied, plus beach towels.
The apartment overlooks a small children's park and the village and is south facing. The apartment was refurbished and redecorated totally at the beginning of this year.
There are deck chairs and two small tables and 4 chairs on the balcony to enjoy the views and a glass of wine after a lazy day in the sun.
About the village Pigna: Pigna is a small friendly village with inhabitants of around 800, hosting more people in the summer with families that have holiday homes. We have a big sports field and new tennis courts, a 5 aside football pitch and a lovely new playground for children only 5 min walk from the apt. We have a really good pizzeria and restaurant where they have live music on the weekends, we have an ice cream parlour and two other restaurants. We have a bank and a post office, a hairdresser, a doctors surgery, a bank, a petrol station in fact anything you may need for a relaxing holiday. You can walk to the mountain streams & water holes to keep cool in the summer or you can go to the beach which is 17 minutes away and enjoy a lovely glass of wine on the balcony at the end of the day, and getting ready for a relaxing evenin out in the village maybe at one of the local dances.
Pigna is a great base for a walking holiday or for sightseeing, we have trekking paths for the amateur and for the seasoned walker, something for everyone. Around Pigna you have many beautiful natural mountain streams to dip into during hot summer days, and astonishing nature with fruits like kiwi and lemons growing on wild trees. Pigna also inhabits many local Italians which means food, coffee and wine is offered to great quality - but also low prices.
Children: The apartment is ideal for children as it is all on one floor, no stairs, so they are safe to run around and play without getting in anyone's way.
There is a small playground within view of the apartment and a really large playing fields and childrens playground so they can run around to their hearts content.

There is also a local bar that opens at 5 until whenever for the younger members of the family, so if you have teenagers that are being almost dragged along on the family holiday, this is where they will have the greatest time.

Summary: We had a great time. The flat is big enough for bedrooms to be spread so everyone had their own space and intimacy. The common area was big enough for 6 adults and 2 kids. The owners were very responsive and very helpful. We also loved Pina with lovely people and good restaurants. The river IS cold but so pretty. And the beach is only 30-45 min away.

Summary: Beautiful apartment in the middle of medieval city Pigna. Pigna peaceful little town, only 20 min away from Ligurian coast. It is also perfect location for mountain hiking and nature exploration.

Summary: The flat was very big, airy and classily furnished with nice stone-tiled floors throughout. It's in a great spot on the hill in the middle of village, 20m from a nice bar, 50m from a food shop that had everything we needed for a week and 100m from the best pizza I had in years... Pigna is a great base for exploring the back country of the Ligurian Alps and the Riviera. We ate very well at the town pizzeria and the excellent restaurant next to the now defunct spa. We did some great mountain bike circuits in the hills behind Pigna but be ready for some very strenuous effort, the hills are very steep. Apricale is a great half day outing (a more touristy version of Pigna) with 3 great restaurants. Dolceacqua is very picturesque but completely spoilt by tourism so go at the very start of the day. And the highlight feature of the area is really the pools in the river nearby - paradise for swimming and cooling off from the heat (intense in August). They can be busy but noting like the beaches on the coast.

Summary: The Casa Dolcevita is a spacious, 4 bedroom apartment in the centre of the steep hillside village of Pigna. With all basic amenities, it provides a great base camp for exploring Pigna and the local river valley districts of Imperia. The village of Pigna is - apart from a new parking area - an ‘unpimped’ Ligurian village, with a couple of little bars, alimentari and restaurants that will offer all you need. Not a spot for nightlife, which suited our three generations just fine. The main attractions of Pigna are: * its location on one of the main pro cyclist training routes in region. Professional and good amateur climbers can be seen whizzing through the village, sometimes stopping off at Fabio’s fabulous pasticceria Desire deRoy for a drink. * the nearby natural rock pools where one can jump and slide from rocks into mountain streams (there are no local swimming pools: a large nearby resort spa centre closed some years ago and its listed offerings are no longer available) * the surrounding mountains and valleys provide for a range of reasonably well marked tracks and trails that wind through lovely natural and farm landscapes.

Summary: A very enjoyable stay in a lovely traditional village house with lots of character. Cosy, clean and tidy with all facilities. The owner is friendly and very helpful with a good knowledge of the area. Pigna is a charming village with superb views and several good walks locally. The Desir de Roy bar/restaurant is welcoming and good value for money. We would certainly recommend this property.

Summary: We spent two weeks at Casa Dolce Vita in Pigna and had a terrific time! The apartment is very spacious and incredibly comfortable. The property was very clean and well maintained. The balcony is wonderful place to have breakfast or lunch – we enjoyed the fantastic views and the sunshine. We were there with 2 families and had so much room. The owner Neil and his father were very friendly and answered all of our questions, recommending great restaurants in the area. We went to visit the many small villages and admiring the breathtaking view of the mountains and the sea. An amazing village is Dolceacqua, where the doors are painted by artists and where one can get lost strolling on the narrow pathways through the town. But Pigna is, in my opinion, the most beautiful village in the valley. It was a great experience and I would definitely recommend this vacation home and it's surroundings to anyone looking for a romantic and memorable holiday. We will definitely be back, Grazie mille!

Summary: Just the most lovely fairytale holiday for us! The apartment was very clean, very spacious, uncluttered furnishings. The beautiful quiet surroundings were just lovely to wake up in and enjoy breakfast outside on the balcony. Amenities were all a short drive away, and Neil and his father Sandro were very helpful. This is a great starting point for discovering the Ligurian area! Absolute recommendations are the Hanbury gardens in Ventimiglia, the Genoa Aquarium and our personal favorite the town of Alassio where we went for frequent runs along the seaside boulevard. The town has lovely little streets, a beautiful natural mountain spring (Carne), Gelato shop and restaurants to chose from!

Summary: My family and I just returned from spending a wonderful Christmas in Pigna. The apartment is large, clean and comfortable. We were surprised to find a beautiful & dramatic natural waterfall next to the bedroom windows coming down from the mountain - apparently its there when its been raining, though we had lovely weather the week we were there. The beds were very cosy! The kitchen has all the basics and we cooked excellent meals with the locally acquired ingredients. The village is lovely & historic and one can walk extensively through it and up to a mountain top; there is an ancient church where we attended Midnight Mass and felt welcome. A car is essential and from Pigna, one can day trip to the French Riviera, or visit nearby towns Sanremo, Ventimiglia, Apricale, Dolceaqua. Neil responded to all our queries promptly and gave us great advice. A great winter getaway - would love to go back in another season! Highly recommended!

Summary: The appartment is charming, clean and very spacious. All necessary equipment is present to enjoy your stay. The property has a long balcony that crossed the entire façade with a great view and in full sun most of the day, we ate most of our meals on it. Just a small note, we would recommend the owner to install Wifi connection even on a pay as you go form, even if it was nice to have our three teenagers with their eyes out of the phone screen. The countryside nearby is full of picturesque villages and valleys while the coast is a tourist's paradise.We truly enjoyed our stay and the kids loved it, they even made local friends over the two weeks we stayed here. Fully recommended. Height Family
