Accommodations:
The Monastero di Santa Croce del Corvo is set within a park of approximately ten hectares. Shaded paths, stone stairways, olive groves, and centuries-old trees create a peaceful and contemplative setting, ideal for rest, study, and reflection, immersed in nature and tranquility.
The monastery overlooks the Magra River and the crystal- clear waters of the Ligurian Sea, awarded the Blue Flag. Sandy beaches, small coves, and rocky shores invite guests to swim, enjoy boat excursions, and visit the Gulf of Poets, Lerici, Tellaro, and Portovenere.
