This is the best spot in town! A bit off the beaten track but wow the views are stunning. We have been to this region once before and stayed in the town of La Spezia. I would totally recommend Levanto instead if you are not playing on staying in one of the little towns. We had a car so for us we could easily get to the train station to ride into Cinque Terre. The owners were so nice. The morning spread had so much variety. My father loved the cobbler they had! lol The espresso was lovely. The rooms were very clean. In a whole I think the owners are perfect. They definately took pride in there business. We stayed in September so it was not too busy, but I can only imagine how this place looks in the summer! Again, a wonderful place and wonderful staff!

B & B Vignola is located in the hills above Levanto, easily accessible by car. It's perfect if you are looking for a quiet place for an escape. The inn is run by a very friendly family, and they are happy to share their knowledge of the are and recommend places to visit. Breakfast in the morning is delicious, with many local treats, such as a pignoli tart. There is a breakfast room, and a generous sized patio for enjoying breakfast outdoors when the weather cooperates. Our room was spotless, bright and comfortable, with a lovely view of the mountains and valley. At night, the only sound was the gurgling of a nearby stream. Heaven!

This B&B is family run, by a lovely family, that were willing to assist in any way. The rooms are well appointed; the grounds beautiful (with an inground pool included); and the breakfast buffet was delicious. The location is a bit secluded, which made going to and from town a bit difficult. The family graciously are willing to drive guests to/from town, as "part of the service" but we didn't like to impose too often, and preferred using a taxi when available, for that reason. There also was a bit of a language barrier, as we didn't speak Italian and their English was limited, but we seemed to manage alright. They are a lovely couple, and as I said, willing to assist in any way. They even drove us to Pisa airport, at 4AM, and charged less than the taxi would have. And Cinque Terre!!! Absolutely beautiful!!!!

The B & B Vignola provided excellent food for breakfast, clean accommodation and the pool was cleaned on a daily basis. The owner was very friendly and willing to make your stay as comfortable as possible. The maid could also speak very good English if you had trouble pronouncing some of the words. I would definitely stay here again. Good location for all you ideal walkers if not transport is essential as it would take you an hour to walk to the front of Levanto and again back with a bit of a hill to climb.
