Agriturismo Il Monte

Agriturismo Il Monte in San Lorenzo della Costa is a small, countryside-style stay with a food-forward, farm-based feel above the Gulf of Tigullio.

Panoramic setting: Set along Via Dolcina Alta, the property is positioned for wide views over the coastline, giving mornings and evenings a distinctly “above-the-sea” calm while still being close to Santa Margherita Ligure.

On-site restaurant experience: A major highlight is dining here, with a seasonal approach that leans on the farm’s own products and local ingredients—an easy win for guests who want a memorable meal without driving back down to town.

Farm products and authenticity: The agricultural side is part of the stay, with house-made goods such as extra-virgin olive oil and preserves, plus other farm staples—adding substance to the agriturismo promise.

Warm, personal hosting: Guest feedback consistently points to attentive, friendly management and a welcoming atmosphere that suits couples, families, and hikers passing through the Tigullio trails.

Good base for nearby sights: From Agriturismo Il Monte, it’s practical to pair quiet nights in San Lorenzo della Costa with outings to Santa Margherita Ligure, Rapallo, and the Portofino area.

Access and driving: The hillside location may mean narrow roads and a more car-dependent routine, especially if you plan frequent beach time.

Not a “resort” setup: This is a working agriturismo, so facilities are likely simpler and more rural than travelers expecting hotel-style extras.

Trail-side trade-offs: Being near walking routes is great for hikers, but some guests may find the setting less convenient for quick errands or late-night options.
