Fanghetto Villa | Fanghetto - Romantic Hideaway in 13th C. Roia Valley Hilltown Near Riviera

2 Bedroom Villa in Fanghetto

The small village of Fanghetto, built by monks in the 13th c.,is perched high on a sunny mountain slope above the Roya Valley, only minutes from the azure sea and rocky cliffs of both the Italian and French Rivieras.
This relatively unknown region in Italy has some of the most beautiful and scenic valleys, famous for its high rock outcroppings, gorges and the winding Roya River, with its rapids, waterfalls and picturesque 2000 year old Roman arched stone bridges.
This rustic village, relatively unchanged for the last hundred years, overlooks terraced olive trees and the Roya River. The private terrace offers magnificent panoramic views of the mountains of France,Italy, olive trees and the river below. Wintess the sounds of the rushing water, the birds waking in the early morning, the swallows darting in and out at eye level during twilight followed often by shooting stars in late evening.
This fully restored two level home by the architect / owner has all the original rustic charm with two foot thick walls, high arched plaster ceilings and is now reborn to assure today's high standards with marbled kitchen counters and marble bath. The Frette linens, luxurious towels, hotel lotions, firm beds, and tasteful antique furnishings provide for every comfort.
The two bedrooms on the first level,each have fabulous river and mountain views and communicate to the bath. Original stone steps lead up to the living room, kitchen, dining area and open terrace. A single day bed/sofa on this level provides comfortable sleeping for an extra guest.
Enjoy your morning cappuccino or lunch at home on the private, sun filled terrace. Read from our library of travel itineraries, guidebooks, cookbooks, browse our list of local restaurant recommendations, plan the next outing or meal, listen to music and relax on the terrace.
Only a 10 minute walk through the terraced olive trees down to the river you will enjoy the most refreshing and memorable swim ever. Lounge on the banks of a private sandy beach or on ancient large boulders. You will be forever captivated by the peace and solitude there among the sound of the rapids.
Fanghetto is truly a small, undiscovered, classic hill town with typical narrow pedestrian stepped streets. It enjoys few tourists and has remained seemingly untouched for hundreds of years as seen from the small passageways of cobbled streets. Parking is at the edge of the village but only a three minute easy walk to the house. Behind the stone walls reveal renovated homes of classic style, known and enjoyed by only a select few. It is simply the perfect getaway for those seeking privacy or a couple wishing the unique, unforgettable affordable honeymoon.
The ever popular Mediterranean beaches nearby include Pont S. Ludovico, Menton, St. Jean Cap Ferrat, Beuasoleil, and Ville Franche, are all within a half hour's drive of Fanghetto.
World renowned restaurants in Monte Carlo and along the French Corniches, including the lofty and celebrated village of Eze, offer both exquisite meals and the best view in the South of France from the terrace of La Chevre d'Or. The very popular outdoor Friday market in Ventimiglia will provide the freshest of ingredients for a simple, yet unforgettable meal on your own terrace at home,should you prefer. The daily market in Menton, the Monday market at the ''marche aux puces'', or flea market in Nice, filled with antiques & brocante are not to be missed.
TIP: You will find flights typically are more frequent and less expensive from the USA to Nice, France, 35 miles away, and car rentals a far better value than renting in Italy.

Aisling O. Aug 12, 2024 10:12:52 PM
Summary: We had a fantastic stay in Fanghetto. It was a great location with spectacular scenery and really clear pristine night skies. We were able to star gaze on the terrace every single night of our stay, something of a luxury for people coming from cloudy rainy Ireland. The refurbishment on the accommodation in the hill top village was very sensitively done and it was great to stay in a place with such architectural character. The locally produced food and produce available in local shops and markets was really high quality. The opportunities for swimming on the doorstep were great. The communication with the hosts re practical arrangements was great. We were able to gain access easily even though on the first day we arrived very late at night . I would highly recommend this to anyone wanting a good break in a rural location Thank you

Summary: Dear Richard, thank you very much for a wonderful stay in your house in Fanghetto. We had 10 absolutelly wonderful days! The communication before the stay was very good, all questions fast and very friendly answered. Arriving at Fanghetto was comfortable. Everything very well explained. The flat is very welcoming, comfortable and very nice prepared by Kim, the local housekeeper. We felt like at home from the first moment. The flat has everything you might need. We did enjoy very much sitting on the terrace as well as walking down to the river (10 min by foot) and spending the day along the river, bathing and playing, especially the kids. Also very nice hiking routes start in the village or nearby. Alltogether a perfect holiday. We are thinking about coming again. Thank you very much Nika

Summary: We had a great stay, the kids (11 & 8) and I loved swimming in the river which is only a few mins away by foot and very private, there were lots of fish and other wildlife in the area which was quite magical. Richard provided detailed instructions on how everything worked as well as lots of suggestions on things to do within the vicinity, this made everything easier - recommend to anyone who likes being somewhere quite remote

Summary: Perfect
Kerrie V. Jun 10, 2019 03:28:50 AM
Summary: ...while only 30 minutes drive from the French Riviera. Truly a best of both worlds vacation spot. A perfect place to unwind on the terrace to the sound of the wind in the mountain trees and the flowing river waters; soaking up sun by day with an espresso and starlight at night with a glass of wine. Or to drive down and along the coast to take in the sights and a meal on the Riviera. The place itself is beyond charming. The charm of the medieval village itself is apparent from the road, as evidenced by all the passersby that stop to photograph it (which can be fun to watch from the terrace). But beyond that, the apartment owners' eye for interior design is evident. The space gives the most delightful sense of a world apart from, yet integrated with, its 13th century roots.
