Villa Amata
Villa Amata is a traditional ligurian villa from the beginning of the 1900s.It is located on the green hills surrounding La Spezia,Cinque Terre,Italy.It offers amazing vistas of the Golfo dei Poeti, of part of the town and over the promontories that make up the southern border of the Parco Nazionale delle Cinque Terre – a nature reserve and an essential sightseeing trip for its wonderful little villages and romantic pathways.
The coastline here has a thousand different colours: it’s wonderful, unique. With its old villages perched high above the sea, green hills, its crystal-clear water: the Gulf of Spezia in Liguria is one of the widest and deepest inlets in the entire tyhrrenian coast, enclosed by the Lerici and Portovenere promontories, and bordered behind by an amphitheatre of hills and mountains.
For over two thousand years the beauty of these places has been celebrated by poets and writers and has been immortalised by artists and painters, transfixed by the beauty of this “water amphitheatre”, attracted by the abundance of naturein the gulf, by its light sea breezes, by the curves of the hills and by the imposing sheer rocky cliffs separating peaceful bays protected from the wind. That’s how the name Il Golfo dei Poeti – the Poets’ Gulf – came about, due to the numerous famous people who came here to breathe in the romantic atmosphere of the landscape.
