Had a very comfortable 2 night stay at the Chateau. Very large, clean rooms with tea making facilities. The Chateau is very beautiful and in a good location with spacious parking. We had dinner for the 1st night of our stay and it was an excellent 5 course tasting menu, all dishes were delicious. Breakfast each morning was a mix of croissants, pain au chocolat, cereals and breads. Hosts were very welcoming, would visit again.

Good measures in place for Covid protection. Had a great room that could not be faulted. Breakfast was only cold choice and basic. This really is a B&B. If you want an evening meal you have to book in advance or you get nothing. 'Booking.com' did make it look like a hotel, in my opinion, which it is not. However, for the cost and the fact we had to book very quickly as Belgium had just been placed on the Red list for quarantine it worked out just fine. Certainly did not compensate for a stay in Bruges but it was what it was and we were thankful we managed to get somewhere at short notice. Worth a stay.

Manarola

Manarola is a small town, a frazione of the comune of Riomaggiore. It is the second-smallest of the famous Cinque Terre towns frequented by tourists, with a population of 353.

Manarola may be the oldest of the towns in the Cinque Terre, with the cornerstone of the church, San Lorenzo, dating from 1338. The local dialect is Manarolese, which is marginally different from the dialects in the nearby area. The name 'Manarola' is probably a dialectical evolution of the Latin, 'magna rota'. In the Manarolese dialect this was changed to 'magna roea' which means 'large wheel', in reference to the mill wheel in the town.

Manarola's primary industries have traditionally been fishing and wine-making. The local wine, called Sciacchetrà, is especially renowned; references from Roman writings mention the high quality of the wine produced in the region.
