Home description
Vicolo Basso is a traditional house in Dolceacqua. It is on three levels:- First is the well equipped kitchen and dining area Then the comfortable sitting room with sofa, sofa-bed armchair, TV and DVD. As this is a separate room with door leading off the stairs, it can be a private second bedroom using the sofa bed. There is a small chest of drawers and space to hang clothes. Next is the main bedroom and bathroom. At the top is a large, sunny sun terrace for sunbathing, eating outdoors, BBQ etc. The interior of the house is quite unusual with arched ceilings and doors. Please note that the ceilings are quite low in a couple of places on the stairways.
The house is a perfect base just for relaxing or for exploring the stunning scenery of the Italian Riviera and the Maritime Alps. It is close to the centre of picturesque Dolceacqua with its local shops and restaurants which are all within a couple of minutes walk.

The North West Italy / Italian Riviera/Liguria region
The region of Liguria has a mild climate. The area is famous for its flowers which are grown commercially. There are many ancient hill villages to explore as well as the coastal resorts of San Remo, Bordighera etc. The French towns of Menton and Nice are within easy reach as is the principality of Monaco. We have even used the house as a base for skiing at the Italian resort of Limone.
Dolceacqua area
Dolceacqua is a typical bustling Italian village attracting visitors mainly from Italy, France, and Germany.
How to get there
Nearest airport is Nice (Easyjet, British Airways), alternative is Genoa (Ryanair) A car is useful if you want to explore the area but the property can be reached from the airport by train and bus/taxi. Once there, the house is close to restaurants, shops etc and the bus service is very good so a car is not essential.
