About this house rental
Because of it's privileged location Casa Ristretta and Apricale offer you the best of both worlds. The hussle and busstle of the Cote d'Azur, South of France, and the much slower and charming pace of live in a tradional Italian hill village. There are plenty of restaurants to choose from in the village or villages nearby or the beach with it's seaside restaurants, only 20 mins away. There is a little grocery store for all your basic needs, and a newsagent. There is free WIFI in the village square and in Apricus Osteria and bar, which are great places to spend time anyway.
Casa Ristretta, has been restored to it's former glory but today's comforts were added. It has a large bathroom with bath and walk in shower and travertine marble tiles.
The bedroom has a kingsize bed, lovely vaulted ceiling and one wall shows the original stone work. The kitchen is well equiped and has table and chairs, although I think, most time would be spend on the covered terrace, with table and chairs, 2 lounge chairs and a Weber BQ.
Please bear in mind that Casa Ristretta is a traditional Apricalese village house, tall and narrow and there are therefore quite a few tall steps in the house, as there are in Apricale itself.
Apricale and it's surroundings is a walkers paradise, the area is totally unspoilt.
There are lots of things to do and explore, with Menton and Monte Carlo as obvious towns, but lots of lovely villages to, Rochetta with it's rockpools, Dolceaqua with it stunning roman bridge once painted by Monet to mention but a few.
Nice is our nearest airport, but Genoa is another option, about a 2 hr. drive away.

What an adventure! Staying in a home like this in an ancient village is a once in a lifetime experience. The house, although old, was very spacious and comfortable with almost everything you need.Negotiating the steps, especially down to the bathroom was an exciting challenge. The roof terrace was a wonderful bonus.Apricale is like stepping back in time. Getting (deliberately) lost in the alleys was a real thrill - especially at night. Visits to Dolceaqua and on to Menton and Eze Village were easy and there was always somewhere to park upon return. Thank you Cora.

A house with a lot of character, tastefully decorated, with a lot of relatively steep stairs. We loved it! Only the august heat was a bit too much for us. But even in the hottest nights, the temperature in the bedroom on the 2nd-lowest of the 4 floors was bearable.

The house is as it has been carved out of the mountains, wonderful to keep you fit!
The restaurants A Ciassa and Apricus make the stay even more worthwhile!

Das „Little House“ befindet sich mitten im historischen Dorf Apricale. Das Dorf selbst ist wirklich sehenswert und richtig urig.
Vom Parkplatz zum Appartement sind gute 8-10 Minuten zum Gehen, fast immer bergauf. Hier braucht man nur rutschfeste und stabile Schuhe, da Wege im originalen Zustand (grobe Steine) belassen wurden.
Das Appartement besteht aus 4 Ebenen. Ganz unten befindet sich das Badezimmer, steile Aufgang führt dann ins kleine Wohn- und Schlafzimmer, von hier aus geht es steil nach oben zur Küche und zum Ausgang, anschließend geht es steil nach oben zur Terrasse. Der Aufenthalt auf der Terrasse haben mein Mann und ich besonders genossen. Mit dem Eintritt der Dunkelheit Herrnstrasse hier unglaubliche Stille.
Auch hier im Appartement braucht man unbedingt feste, stabile Schuhe und Trettsicherheit.
Ansonsten fehlte uns an nichts. Das Bett war sehr bequem. Beim Duschen mussten wir auch uns mäßigen. Das warme Wasser war begrenzt. Das Badezimmer war schwer zu lüften. Die Gastgeberin Cora war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Zur Begrüßung bekamen wir eine Flasche lokalen Wein und Obst.
Alles in Allem, den Menschen, die nicht trainiert sind, würde ich vom Aufenthalt in diesem Appartement abraten.
