On the edge of Cinqueterre, a bit of country, a bit of seaside, a whole lot of charm.

The view from the tempered-glass loft. The floor tiles spell "Refugium", that is "Haven" and indeed a haven it is.

Rustic charm. 
We like to think of it as a "country cottage with sea view" :)

From marcella perodo

Close to Cinqueterre, Portovenere, Lerici, and Byron’s and Shelley’s beloved Gulf, at the Little Church tranquillity is... sacred.

Lovingly restored with a focus on practicality and comfort, the Little Church is a tiny getaway full of character and charm. Once a real village chapel, now deconsecrated, you'll love its original frescoes, the tempered-glass loft and the way we turned it into a cozy nest.
