Step back in time and enjoy La Dolce Vita at this stunning and unique medieval house. Un'altra Vita is situated in the middle of the 1000 year old medieval village of Dolceacqua, just steps away from Castle Doria. Breathtaking views from all three terraces, and recently completing an extensive renovation, whilst preserving all the original character and charm. Our home is perfect for anyone wanting an authentic Italian experience and to get away from the hustle and bustle of life.

​​

Un'altra Vita is built over four floors, and 250sqm, making it one of the largest houses inside the medieval village. You will find 3 beautiful bedrooms, each unique and characteristic. The original slate and terracotta floors can be found in some rooms, as well as the original fireplaces and stone walls.

On the ground floor we have the cantina, which can be used for bike storage.

The first floor features a large family bathroom, a large bedroom with two single beds, a lobby, and another double bedroom with huge bathroom including washing machine. All bathrooms are brand new and are fitted with brushed bronze taps, rainwater showers and towel radiators.

On the second floor you will find the first fabulous lounge, with original fireplace, built in seating and tv. The stunning kitchen which was handmade in the 70s is also on this level, recently modernised with brand new combi oven, gas hob and fridge, but still bursting with the original character and views from the sea to the mountains which you can enjoy whilst you sip your espresso made by your Lelit espresso machine. We always leave enough Italian roasted coffee beans for you to get started- there is nothing worse than not having coffee in the morning!

On the third floor you will find another lounge with sofa and traditional wood fired stove, a gorgeous dining room with open fireplace, as well as large oak dining table and teak chairs, perfect for a family bbq dinner.

Three terraces, one covered with another beautiful dining table, one with Weber bbq and the final one with loungers can be found, all with views across Dolceacqua, the castle, river and church.

The house has very thick stone walls, so is relatively cool in the summer and warm in the winter. We have plenty of heaters and fans incase the traditional methods are not enough for you.
