Description

Only four km into the surrounding countryside of the coastal resort town of San Lorenzo al Mare lies the small idyllic mountain village of Civezza, with its endlessly fascinating intertwined lanes, two grocery stores and two very fine restaurants. The holiday apartment of Casa mamma Rosetta is located in the upper part of the village, which you can reach comfortably by car. Casa mamma Rosetta has ample room for up to five people, comprising a two double bedrooms, one of which is connected via a round arch with a third sleeping area containing a sofa bed. The height of this second bedroom is a mere 1.70 metres. There is also a spacious kitchen / living-room forming the heart of the apartment; here you will find a comfortable living area, a large dining table and a modern fitted kitchen with a dishwasher at your disposal. The bathroom also has a shower. You can unwind during your holiday over a good glass of wine on the terrace under the lush olive trees and beside the flower beds.

location details: Civezza


Civezza lies on a hilltop hidden among the Mediterranean vegetation. This mediaeval town in the Rio San Lorenzo Valley has narrow streets typical of towns in the Imperia hinterland area; its houses are built up around the two remaining towers of the five that originally defended the inhabitants from pirate raids.


Because the town was so close to the sea (the town stands just a few kilometres at an altitude of only 225 metres from the mouth of the San Lorenzo river) it was constantly raided by the Frassineto pirates.


The bell tower of the church of San Marco peeps out from the olive trees. The church dates from the fifteenth-century but was embellished in 1783 during the restoration work carried out by Carrega, the architect who re-organised the interior into a single nave and added ornamental stucco work to both the bell tower and the façade. The church holds a statue of the Madonna dated 1645 and two paintings by Martinelli. As you leave the church, a short walk brings you to the oratory of San Giovanni, which for a long time was used as a priory.


Olive-growing and the production of olive oil have always been the major economic resources of the territory: at one time there were many olive presses in use in the area. The ultra-modern multi-purpose congress centre was actually built from a fifteenth-century oil-mill. You can appreciate the beauty of the hills during excursions to Torre Pamponi, Monte Faudo and other nearby locations.

Das Restaurant 5 Torre in Chivezza ist für Fischliebhaber sehr zu empfehlen. Der schöne Radweg entlang der Küste. Das Olivenmuseum in Imperia, oder die herrliche Landschaft mit den urrigen Orten in den Bergen aber auch die belebten Städtchen entlang der Küstenstraße hat einen bleibenden eindruck hinterlassen.
