Agritourism

This lovely farmhouse - on an ancient estate - is ideally situated in the verdant hills of Torre, between Lucca (4 miles) and the coast (with the sandy beaches of Versilia, Forte dei Marmi's shops and nightlife, and Pietrasanta's art galleries). It has been restored with integrity: antique terracotta tiled floors, wooden beamed ceilings and is well furnished in a country style. On the ground floor, there is a large entrance lounge, a spacious kitchen with modern conveniences, a pantry, and a bathroom with shower. Old terracotta stairs lead up to the first floor with 2 double bedrooms, 1 twin bedroom, and an elegant bathroom. Private garden with panoramic views of Lucca and the hills (guests here can simply sit back, relax and enjoy the view), garden chairs and table, umbrella, beach chairs, pergola of Isabella grapes, parking. Free WIFI. Fabulous position for walking and cycling. Trips to Pisa, Florence, San Gimignano, Chianti, Siena, Cinque Terre, Portofino. Lucca – the nearest city – really is one of Tuscany's best-kept secret. Within its majestic walls, its Roman and medieval heart is a medley of piazzas, tiny churches, art galleries and cobbled lanes; a place, in the words of Henry James, 'overflowing with everything that makes for ease, for plenty, for beauty, for interest and good example'. (The farmhouse is not suitable for disabled or reduced mobility people.)
