Un voyage à Cinqueterre

A trip to Cinqueterre

I am charmed by Italy, and in particular by one region: the Cinqueterre (the Five Lands), a region that has left such a mark on me that it inspired me to create my models for pregnant and breastfeeding women: the chic Vernazza maternity and breastfeeding tunic, the Rapallo breastfeeding-compatible maternity dress, the Manarola maternity jacket, the Cinqueterre maternity dress and many others.

Cinqueterre is above all a peaceful place, far from everything, green mountains, local products and specialties that carry the taste of Italy. There, 5 villages nestled in the hollow of each mountain, each as beautiful and colorful as the next.

In Cinqueterre, it is difficult to find accommodation. The accommodation is often approximate and very expensive for the quality of the places. But I found the rare pearl: a small inn perched at the top of the mountain, near Vernazza, which overlooks the sea and where you are woken up by the sound of birds and the sea.
A pure Italian mama will welcome you with lemonade (local drink) and will make you delicious homemade cakes in the morning for breakfast. This is Eremo Sul Mare ("the inn on the sea").

In this splendid region, we go hiking. We get up, have breakfast and set off on the mountain trails that connect the villages. Some paths do not require any particular physical condition and you can go there pregnant or with a young child (in a specific hiking baby carrier).
Check before venturing out on a trail if you are expecting a baby or are in the company of children.
For others, this place is ideal for a romantic weekend. You will be charmed by the beauty of the place and the Eremo Sul Mare hostel will be your respite after a day on the trails of Cinqueterre. You will be able to rest far from the crowds.

Sometimes we play guitar on the terrace in the evening and it's a pure moment of happiness!

I am absolutely in love with the area and this place in particular. And the good news is that the price of the room is relatively affordable for the area: 120 euros / night.

Consider taking the boat that connects the 5 villages: the arrival by boat in the red, yellow, pink villages with Italian charm is magnificent!

Please note, the hostel is located 10 minutes walk from the village in the mountains and you need to be a good climber!

Have a nice trip to Liguria!
