Locanda Al Colle

THE PROPERTY From the restoration of an ancient farmhouse, a contemporary guest-house was born. Minutes from the sweet sea breeze of the Tuscan coast, Locanda al Colle is set on a hill overlooking Camaiore in the province of Versilia. Ancient trees and olive groves mark the path to the guesthouse, where aromatic and ornamental plants ease guests into a state of tranquility. The property’s hilltop position offers an enchanting view, gently leading all eyes back down towards the sea. An extensive panoramic terrace, nestled between olive trees, lavender, flowering rosemary, and sage, is the ideal place to enjoy this splendid view. It captures the mind, spirit, and body in any season. Elegant wrought iron vintage furnishings are housed beneath the wisteria pergolas, where guests enjoy a homemade breakfast, a good book, or the simple art of conversation. A heated salt-water swimming pool (15m x 4m) is the ideal spot for total relaxation, from the first rays of the spring sunshine all the way through to the last warm, autumnal days. THE GUESTHOUSE Crossing the threshold into the Locanda, you are welcomed by a warm intimate setting full of charm and elegance. A country house atmosphere is enhanced by the careful selection of furnishings that skillfully wed past and present. Locally crafted sculptures and a vast art collection is set in a frame of charm and grace, creating a natural juxtaposition of time, texture, and technique. There is a natural meeting of comfort and style, of land and sea, and of luxury and ease. The owner’s eclectic nature adds to the spirit of the Locanda. His love for vintage and contemporary furniture makes this a truly unique guesthouse, in which harmony, warmth, and genuine friendliness are composed into the soundtrack of an enjoyable stay, evenings with our chef included. Upon booking, guests receive a complimentary gazebo at the nearby beach club il Cavallone, only a ten-minute drive from the property.
