The beautiful swimming pool at the back, the terraced garden and its position make Casa Ruè very versatile, suitable for those who want to experience the town and the various seaside resorts and for those who just want to relax and enjoy the house.

Interior

Casa Ruè has three floors. The main entrance on the first floor leads into a hallway with two staircases, the first going up to the first sleeping area and the second going down to the living area and another two bedrooms. The living room consists of a TV area and a dining area with two beautiful windows providing a relaxing view of the sea and the little town of Recco and a luminous French window that leads out to the terrace. The living room opens into a hallway that leads to the open kitchen and to a bedroom with double bed, a bathroom with shower and a twin bedroom. Going down another three steps you come to a further bathroom with shower. The first staircase at the entrance goes up to a second sleeping area composed of an attic double bedroom and a bathroom with whirlpool tub. The property is completed by two parking spaces.

Park

The 300 sq m garden is the Ligurian type with terraces sloping towards the sea, partly planted with olive trees and colourful flowers. The area around the house is paved and organised as a dining area with electric barbecue and small relaxation areas, making the guests’ stay even more pleasant. On one side of the garden, on the upper terrace with respect to the house entrance, is the beautiful swimming pool.

Swimming Pool

The pool is located on the upper terrace with respect to the first floor of the house and just a few metres from it. It lies on one side of the house and is reached up 9 steps. Of irregular shape, it has an area of about 40 sq m with a constant depth of 1,5 m. Lined in ceramic, it has chlorine purification and a ladder for access to the water. The solarium area is equipped with sunbeds and an umbrella. The pool is available from the last Saturday of April to the first Saturday of October.

Location

Recco, in the Golfo Paradiso (‘Paradise Gulf’), between Portofino and Genoa, is the perfect destination not only for the nearby beaches where it’s possible to taste one of the most renown delicacies: the ‘focaccia’ of Recco, but also to reach the center of Rapallo (10 km), Camogli (4 km) with its famous fish festival on the first Sunday of May, and the more fashionable Santa Margherita Ligure and Portofino (15 km). On the first week of September, there’s also a Fire Festival (‘Sagra del Fuoco’) when volunteers from the seven town’s districts get together to celebrate the ‘Nostra Signora del Suffragio’, matron saint, through a fireworks competition with the best Italian pyrotechnics experts. Every year, this traditional Fire Festival draws thousands of people, who run to Recco to enjoy the local products, stroll through the many market stands but, most of all, witness the fireworks exhibitions as well as the traditional shooting of ‘mascoli’ (a particular type of fireworks). Given the moderate climate of the area and the many history-rich towns nearby: Florence, Pisa, Lucca… all day-trip possibilities, Recco is an ideal destination even during mid-seasons, as Golfo Paradiso constantly enjoys a temperature 6/7 degrees different from Genoa.
