Located in the old part of the medieval mountain village of Triora, this House has just been completely renovated and refurnished to a very high standard, with no expense spared. There are two balconies, one from the bedroom and the other from the living area. Both have breathtaking, uninterrupted views of the valley and Maritime Alps. In 2004, Triora was rightfully included in the list of most beautiful Italian villages (Club dei Borghi Pui Belli d'Italia). There are only about 100 members. Located in the Maritime Alps, Triora is perfectly placed for those who enjoy walking or hiking. There are several well marked walks from the village itself. It is only a 40 minute drive to the seaside resort of Arma di Taggia on the Riviera dei Fiori (Riviera of Flowers). A further 10 to 15 minutes drive you can be in Monaco on the Cote d'Azur.
