Casa di paese in Villa di Vignolo s.n.c., Mezzanego

The cluster is in the Val Fontanabuona area on the Ligurian Apennine side, with wooded ridges and narrow valleys around it. The Sturla valley is nearby, and the coast at Chiavari and Lavagna is a short drive away but outside the immediate inland setting. The nearest larger town is Chiavari, which has full services, rail connections and a substantial historic centre. The Portofino Regional Park and the Tigullio coast are in the wider area but not inside the immediate 15 km landscape. This part of eastern Liguria is known for slate quarries and small hillside hamlets.
