Villa The Oil Mill Terra Rossa

Frantoio Terra Rossa



Where sea, nature and tradition meet – Corniglia, Cinque Terre



Set in the heart of Corniglia, within the UNESCO-listed Cinque Terre National Park, Frantoio Terra Rossa is a unique rustic retreat created from an ancient olive mill. More than just a place to stay, it offers an authentic experience where nature, tradition and breathtaking sea views come together.



Panoramic setting



From its terraces, guests enjoy spectacular views of the Ligurian Sea, where turquoise waters meet dramatic cliffs. The scenery changes throughout the day, creating an unforgettable backdrop from sunrise to sunset.



The house



Designed on three levels, the property can accommodate up to 6 guests, plus 2 additional children on request (bunk bed). It is ideal for families or groups of friends seeking space and authenticity.



Upper floor: fully equipped kitchen opening onto a large private terrace, two comfortable double bedrooms and a spacious bathroom.



Intermediate floor: elegant living room with double sofa bed and a large bathroom with wellness area.



Lower floor: small bedroom with bunk beds (children only) and a practical laundry room.



Important notes on access



In keeping with Corniglia’s historic character, access to the property requires climbing numerous steep steps.

For this reason, the house is not recommended for very young children or guests with mobility difficulties. Guests are advised to pack light; porter service is available on request but can be difficult to arrange.



Pets



Dogs only are welcome, with a supplement and strict observance of house rules.

Dogs must be kept on a lead in the garden and on the stairs, must not disturb neighbours and are not allowed on beds, sofas or armchairs. No other animals are accepted.
