Location & what to see

Il Ghiro is located in the hamlet of Lavaggiorosso, in the hills surrounding Levanto, in a rural setting of olive groves and terraces typical of the Ligurian hinterland, away from traffic but still close to the sea. The property’s garden with terrace overlooks this hilly landscape, offering a peaceful base for those seeking a stay away from the coast’s crowds.

Levanto railway station is about 2.1 km away, while Bonassola station is 2.2 km away: both provide quick connections to the Cinque Terre and La Spezia. Levanto beach is 2.2 km away, Bonassola beach 2.3 km, and the nearest restaurant, Antiga Ustaia Zita, is just 200 metres from the property. Genoa-Sestri Airport is 64 km away, an option for those arriving by plane from northern Italy or abroad.

In summer the area is perfect for the sea and for exploring the scenic trails of the Cinque Terre National Park, about 6 km away, with the villages of Monterosso, Vernazza and Manarola reachable by train or boat. In cooler months, the hinterland is well suited to excursions among olive groves and vineyards, walks in the Municipal Park 2.2 km away, and visits to the small museums of La Spezia, such as the Technical Naval Museum, about 37 km away.

Antiga Ustaia Zita — typical Ligurian restaurant just a short walk from the B&B 200 m
Levanto Beach — large sandy and pebbly beach with beach clubs 2,2 km
Levanto Station — direct rail connections to the Cinque Terre 2,1 km
