La Pagoda (apartment)

Home description

Eva Casa is located just 5 minutes walk from the beach, on the outskirts of Lerici, often referred to as one of Lerici's best kept secrets. Quiet and peacful, yet only 15 minutes bus drive away from the larger resort of Lerici. This delightful small apartment has access to all amenities, including local market for bargain hunting, and have excellent restaurants for eating out. It has a large enough terrace for sunbathing and alfresco dining in property with six apartments at the edge of the small town of Tellaro, just a few hundred metres from the sea (rocky shores and small beaches), 2km Tellaro (shops with the basic essentials, 50 m from the house bus to Lerici and Tellaro every 15 minutes).4 km horse riding, golf , tennis and sailing, yoga available in Lerici.

Why not take advantage of our good value low rental rates for the quieter Autumn season when the sea can be the warmest of the year and the bays still bask in the warm yellow glow of sunshine. With our low rates you might want to consider escaping the English Autumn damp for longer than a week!

From September onwards for those of you who are into golf, LERICI has a 9 hole course (Golf Club Marigola Lerici - Via Biaggini) located close to the sea with fantastic views of the harbour and castle. Phone: 0187/970193. The club also offers parking, restaurant, bar, pro-shop, driving range and putting green.
For those of you, who like to leap about on the tennis court, the Circolo Tennis Club is located next door, phone 0187/965995.
There is an open air public swimming pool, again adjecent to the golf and tennis facilities. Check locally for times and costs.
If you are into walking, you must visit the five villages of Chinque Terre. Take the train, bus but not the car as these are not allowed beyond the entrance of each town. Better than trains or buses, for those with the time a scenic path connects all the villages. A little strenous, but the dramatic views of the towns and coast more than compensate for a little light sweating.
Cycling is also a big passion as it offers dramatic see views s biker cycle up hill and around Fiascherino to Ameglia.

Now about our apartment: The open plan interior is light, airy, beautifully furnished in blue and white with wood floors. Bedroom: there is one king size luxury bed (orthopaedic) for extra comfort, and a fitted wardrobe.Spacious sitting/ dining room with table, chairs, sofabed and TV.

Fully fitted kitchenette with fridge, electric cooking rings and microwave.Bathroom with shower, washbasin, bidet and washing machine. There is a delightful terrazzo with sun bed, dining table, chairs and sun shade. It has sun all afternoon for private sun bathing, and birds sing to wake you in the morning. Ideal for a sea side holiday and hill walking.

Guestbook for La Pagoda

Guest Notes from Raewyn Baker:
I've actually been meaning to write and thank you, we had a lovely stay. We both absolutely loved Tellaro and the Cinque Terre Area as a whole.

The apartment was brilliantly located and was very clean and comfortable. Ninetto was very helpful, and communicated really well.
I will recommend your apartment to any friends travelling to Italy, and will endeavour to convince everyone I know to visit again with me!!

Guest Note One from Vincent & Roelien:

My partner and I spend one wonderful week in Eva’s casa in June of this year, 2009. We had a splendid time, the apartment looks very nice and light.
Eva has thought of everything to make our stay as comfortable as possible. We had the luxury of a washing machine, a refrigerator, a cooking plate and a very nice and big bed. It was all we needed!
Beneath the apartment we could park our car, which was very nice because of the coolness of the parking space.
Outside of the apartment you have the beach at very close distance, just at the end of the road, down the stairs and there you are, a perfect sandy and sunny beach including beds.
You can take the bus to what ever way you want to go, it’s very easy.
Just be aware that at the evening, the bus doesn’t come anymore after 9 pm or so. So if you go to Lerice, and have dinner there, you can walk back, it’s an about 30 to 45 minutes walk from Lerice back to the apartment, but also in the dark, so be careful. (They could have taken a taxi Eu 5 from Lerici to Fiascherino, & time table is scheduled till 11pm!: Eva added)
You can also eat at the restaurants in Tellaro, there are a lot of good ones.
We had a very good time and we thank Eva and her friends for this. We will recommend Eva’s Casa to our friends and family as well.
Enjoy your stay here.
Kind regards,
Vincent & Roelien

Guest Note Two from Claudia Centoni:
We spent a week at Eva's Casa ("La Pagoda") and our only regret was that we couldn't stay a second week (it was already booked at the time we reserved our first week of a two week holiday).

We thought Fiasherino and Tellaro were lovely - and the apartment was well situated and very comfortable. We really enjoyed the fact that we could walk to two different beaches within just 5 minutes (we explored two beaches that were equipped with umbrellas and sun beds for rent - Frank's beach and Blue Marin beach - there were certainly others to discover as well). In Fiascherino the people were extremely friendly. It being a very small town, it was very quiet and peaceful, despite the fact we were there at the height of summer holiday season (middle of July). We found that most people in Fiascherino were Italians who either had a summer home there or had chosen it as a destination for their beach holiday. As such,we actually felt we were in Italy - as opposed to some other Italian towns we know of which get so inundated with tourists in the summer that the Italian culture and people get lost in the background. Tellaro, just a 10 or 15 minute walk away - was also lovely - with some very nice, high quality restaurants, a very friendly cafe called Jolly's and bar with a large terrace from which we could admire the spectacular view of the sea. There were also some lovely little grocery shops - though, as expected, they were much more expensive than the larger grocery stores in Lerici or Sarzana. However, we did not have a car so we really appreciated the fact that everything we needed was only a short walk away.

There was also a very convenient bus service to nearby towns, Lerici and Sarzana. We took advantage of the bus and visited both. In Lerici, we picked up some groceries at Conad - and we were delighted to have a tasting of local wine, cheese and cold cuts at Enoteca Baroni. We also really enjoyed visitng Sarzana - a fairly artsy and eclectic town - inland - with lots of vintage clothing and accessory shops, friendly bars and a series of cultural activities taking place every night (open air concerts, fashion show, etc).

The caretakers were also very friendly and pleasant people - very helpful and accessible.

The apartment was well situated with nice sunlight all day long. It doesn't have air conditioning but we felt it wasn't necessary as we could leave the windows open (shutters closed) during the night and there was always a nice breeze coming through from the sea. We didn't use the kitchen much but it seemed appropriately equipped (though very small). In general, the layout of the apartment made great use of the space.

Last but not least - that orthopaedic bed mentioned in the ad - is a great feature of the apartment. Reviews often don't comment on the bed and perhaps we grow accustomed to not being as comfortable in beds we sleep in while on holiday. However, a comfortable bed is key to restful sleeps. The bed and the four big fluffy pillows definitely contributed to the comfort of our stay and rest.

We had rented a place for our second holiday week and we left the Pagoda with very high expectations since we had been so pleased with our week there.

To conclude - very good value for money - we would definitely stay there again and will recommend it to friends.

Claudia Centoni & Mike Gordon (stayed from July 25 to August 1 2009).


Guest Note Three from Edwina Kero:
Edwina's Recommendation: 'Home, after a fantastic week at Eva Casa. We thoroughly enjoyed our week in your charming modern and airy apartment. Situated in such a beautiful area it was ideal for walking, bathing and sightseeing with plenty of restaurants nearby. Everything was on our doorstep. Thanks for the very useful information in the apartment. It gave us some good tips. We can definitelly recommend the bus to Lerici followed by the ferry to Cinque Terre and then walking the five villages, it was an experience. But once back to the apartment our favourite place was the terrace whether sitting for meals, relaxing or just admiring the olive groves and flowers round about. It was so peaceful. Thank you Eva, we have lovely memories for the winter months and hope to visit you again. Jimmy and Edwina Kero, Sweden. 27 June - 4 July 2009.

Guest Note Four from Felicity Blake:
Felicity's Recommendation: I am writing in the first instance to thank you most warmly for allowing us to use your lovely apartment in Italy. After our daughter's wedding in Santa Margherita, which was truly idyllic, it was so wonderful to unwind in those lovely surroundings. We enjoyed Tellaro, the beaches, the lovely walks and a breathtaking drive in the Cinque Terra region. It was a real pleasure to use your attractive home. J & Felicity Blake, 2nd Aug - 8th Aug 2009.
