Agriturismo Giandriale

The Agriturismo Giandriale is located at an altitude of 700 meters, within a protected oasis of 150 hectares in the lush Val di Vara, one of the Sites of Community Interest acknowledged by the European Union for its significant environmental value. Surrounded by the most authentic nature of Liguria, among ancient forests and sunny pastures, it offers a tranquil stay filled with the fragrance of aromatic herbs and the beauty of the Mediterranean landscape.

Strategically positioned on the Levante coast, just 22 km from the sea at Sestri Levante and a short distance from Portofino, the Cinque Terre, and medieval villages in the inland area, this establishment serves as an ideal starting point for exploring the surrounding region. The agriturismo is not a traditional hotel, but a genuine country house where guests can live in harmony with nature. Access is via a picturesque dirt road that winds through the woods, setting the tone for a stay immersed in greenery.

Accommodations are situated in an ancient stone farmhouse, with rooms decorated in line with rural traditions and equipped with private bathrooms. All guests can enjoy a panoramic terrace with views over the valley, in addition to a spacious common room and Wi-Fi connectivity. For dinner, it is advisable to book in advance to ensure quality and organization of service.

The culinary experience is closely tied to in-house production, resulting from committed organic farming practices that respect the environment. Vegetables, fruits, honey, and herbs are grown without pesticides or chemical fertilizers. The meat comes from Limousin cattle raised freely in mountain pastures. All products can be purchased on-site and form the basis of the dishes offered: authentic meals such as trofie with pesto, herb ravioli, chestnut gnocchi, savory pies, and desserts made with the farm's preserves.

The surrounding area is a paradise for hiking and outdoor sports enthusiasts. Numerous trails depart from the agriturismo, traversing unspoiled landscapes ideal for trekking, scenic walks, and mountain biking. On the property, there is also a monumental holly tree, accessible via a short walk, and multi-day trekking tours are organized between local agriturismos.

Completing the offerings, the Val di Vara Adventure Park provides thrilling treetop obstacle courses for all ages, featuring the unmissable Super Zip-line. For younger guests, the Children's Forest offers a playful educational experience in the woods, with suspended paths, themed activities, and educational playhouses.

Nearby, recreational opportunities abound: just 2 km away is an outdoor swimming pool, while nearby towns offer horseback riding, rafting, and visits to mines, caves, and the archaeological site of Valle Lagorara. Agriturismo Giandriale is an authentic establishment, driven by passion, hard work, and a welcoming spirit. It is a place where nature, taste, and adventure converge, allowing for beauty and tranquility to flourish.
