In our opinion, the biggest asset of the house is its spaciousness. We all (8 persons) could comfortably sit in the living room. There is also a large table in the garden, but due to the mosquitos (which seemed to be particularly "hungry" there), we preferred to stay in the living room. By opening the large windows, this almost felt like sitting outside.
We also found a table (in the basement) where we could leave stuff to tinker with.
Fortunately, the children all slept in the large upper room: the staircase was very narrow with alternating traffic only, even for the children. Also, tall people had to stoop quite a lot on all of the stairs - but the rooms had normal height (except for the large bedroom below the roof, which had a sloping ceiling).
The kitchen is quite large, too, and fitted with all necessary equipment (although we used our own can opener). We discovered that we could even extend the kitchen table, which was very useful when working with dough to prepare pasta. There are two large fridges (one in the basement), so that we could always chill a watermelon and store some ice cream - welcome refreshments after returning from a hike.
Starting a hike is possible directly from the house: the marked trail #453 passes next to the house. A bus stop with good connections to Lerici and La Spezia is also located very conveniently ... and the San Terenzo tourist information office is next to it. But this does not mean that the house is in the village centre - in contrary, it is located rather at the border, and the beach (fine sand) is 1km away. Three supermarkets are even nearer, so they can also reached by foot (however, a bike allows to get to one of them even easier through a tunnel). The advantage of the location of course is that it is really quiet, especially in the two sleeping rooms on the back side of the house.
Our first impression was that everything seemed to be a bit run down, but we got quickly used to it. And there were no dripping faucets, a good Internet connection, washing machine and dishwasher worked as well as the oven, and a torn fly screen was replaced. The quality of the mattresses varied: some were quite good, some we've seen better ... but we still all could get a good night's sleep. The landlord, was also very helpful: besides providing us with two parking lots and three set of keys (one of them for the back door), he also proposed some things to do in the surrounding area. Many thanks: we enjoyed our stay.

Urlaubspleite
Das Haus entsprach in keiner Weise unseren Erwartungen bei diesem Preis.
Der Mini-Garten ist eigentlich keiner, zudem andere Reihenhaus Bewohner Zugang und Durchgang haben.
Das Haus selbst war muffig, zudem hat ein weiteres Problem hat dazu gefĂŒhrt, dass wir- einvernehmlich mit dem Vermieter-
den Aufenthalt abgebrochen haben.
Der Vermieter selbst war freundlich und einsichtig.
Wir verbrachten wunderbare 14 Tage in San Terenzo. Die Wohnung war gut und wir hatten viel Platz. Es war alles vorhanden was man fĂŒr einen erholsamen Urlaub benötigt.
Alles in allem ...Es war wunderbar.
The Appartment was bigger as we expected. It was very clean and it was all we needed inside.
San Terenzo is a small village, unfortunatelly are less opportunities for shopping. The beach is beautiful, clean and you can use the communal beach so you dont have to pay for sunbeds and umbrellas. If you want to relax or go there with kids its perfect.
Schöne Wohnung mit Garten, direkt am Olivenhang gelegen.
Die Wohnung ist sehr ruhig gelegen und trotzdem ist man zu FuĂ in 10 bis 15 min. am Strand. Die Gegend eignet sich hervorragend, um AusflĂŒge nach Portovenere und in die Cinque Terre zu unternehmen. Der Autobus fĂ€hrt nicht weit vom Haus entfernt sowohl nach Lerici als auch nach La Spezia, so dass man sein Auto nicht braucht. Von Lerici gehen die Schiffe bis in die Cinque Terre und weiter, sehr bequem um alle Orte zu besichtigen. Der einzige, aber wirklich der einzige Nachteil der Wohnung ist der steile Anstieg auf den letzten 100m bis zur HaustĂŒr. Sonst sehr empfehlenswert!
Le fotografie mostravano solo le parti piĂč in ordine della casa. Pensavamo di trovare una villetta ma Ăš un appartamento grande in un condominio. 11 posti letto comodi ma con solo due bagni (abbiamo dovuto fare la fila ma lo sapevamo). Stoviglie sporche e la pulizia lasciava a desiderare. Il giardino trascurato e, in generale, l'appartamento non molto curato. Il padrone di casa molto gentile e disponibile anche nel risolvere alcuni inconvenienti non imputabili ma che, comunque, hanno disturbato la vacanza.
Ein wirklich schönes, gut ausgestattetes, sauberes Ferienhaus in einer guten Lage fĂŒr groĂe Familien. Besonders hervorzuheben ist der freundliche, sehr hilfsbereite Vermieter. Vielen Dank Dir fĂŒr alles, Stefano!
Das sehr gerĂ€umige Reiheneckhaus liegt super gut. Nur ca. 10 min. zu FuĂ an die schönen StrĂ€nde. Nette Restaurants im Ort. Wir waren sieben Personen, fĂŒr die das Haus gut ausgestattet ist. Alles sehr sauber. Der Vermieter ist sehr hilfsbereit und nett. Ein perfektes Domizil, wenn man nicht dauernd ins Auto steigen will. Danke an Stefano, wir haben die Woche sehr genossen.
Die Wohnung ist gut ausgestattet. Der sehr freundliche Vermieter stellte alles Nötige zur VerfĂŒgung, auch vieles, das wir selber mitgebracht hatten. In vier SchlafrĂ€umen waren wir (9 Personen) gut untergebracht.
Strand und StÀdtchen sind zu Fuss leicht erreichbar. Nach La Spezia gibt es gute Busverbindungen (Fahrkarten im Zeitschriftenladen vorher kaufen!). Der Besuch von Portovenere (per Schiff von Lerici aus) war ein Erlebnis wie auch die Cinque Terre - Wanderung (trotz gar vieler Touristen).

Die Wohnung ist hervorragend mit unterschiedlichen KĂŒchengerĂ€ten, Töpfen und Pfannen in jeder GröĂe sowie zwei KĂŒhlschrĂ€nken ausgestattet. Auch mehrgĂ€ngige MenĂŒs fĂŒr zehn Personen lieĂen sich ohne Schwierigkeiten kochen. Auch sonst haben wir (zwei Familien mit insgesamt sechs Kindern) uns sehr wohl gefĂŒhlt. Die Vermieter waren sehr nett und jederzeit sehr hilfsbereit.
Per il secondo anno consecutivo abbiamo trascorso l'ultima settimana di Giugno nella casa del Sig. Stefano. L'ambiente Ăš spazioso e molto curato, la pulizia perfetta. Avendo un cane labrador abbiamo apprezzato molto il giardino, in comune con gli altri vicini. Il mare e i negozi sono vicini e raggiungibili a piedi e volendo ci si puĂČ servire dell'autobus. La zona Ăš tranquilla. Ci siamo trovati ottimamente, e certamente ritorneremo.
The appartment in San Terenzo is a good value for money and centrally located, near to the beautiful sites Cinque Terre, Tellare, and Lerici. Carrera and Pisa are also only 1 hour away by car. The garden is nice & green. It is shared with other inhabitants of the appartment complex; however, we never saw them.
(families from Norway)
Very nice and clean house just outside the center of the very charming village of San Torenzo. We were two families (8 people). The beds were very good, nice clean bed sheets and large towels.
We relaxed in the nice garden in the afternoon and ate breakfast there every morning.
The service and hospitality from the owner was very good, both when we ordered and arrived. We received useful information about attractions, beaches and restaurants in San Terenzo / Lerici from the owner when we arrived.
We did not use the car after arriving to the house. We walked to San Terenzo in less than 10 minutes.
San Terenzo and Lerici are two charming and beautiful villages, and we all enjoyed the atmosphere, the nice beaches, the buildings and restaurants we were recommended.
We travelled by boat from Lerici to Cinque Terre. Very nice boattrip and walk through the 5 cities in one day.
Nearby stores offer fresh produce, fish, meat and everything we needed for a good meal or snack.
There were possibilities to take scenic walks in the hills around the house.
We will definitely return if we get a chance.
