A little about the area:
This wonderful villa is set within walking distance of a variety of restaurants and also just 1.5km from the beautiful, walled historic town of Montecarlo, an area renowned for its quality wines, and olive oil. Here one can also find various bars, restaurants and small grocery shops.... Or, join the 'strada del vino' and have a wine tour! Large supermarket is in Altopascio less than a 10 minute drive.
Montecarlo train station , for trips to Florence and Lucca is just 1.5 km by foot through a shortcut. For more frequent trains then a 5 minute drive to Altopascio station is an easy alternative.
There is a bus stop only 600M from the villa too, although buses are intermittent.
Situated less than 15 minutes from the motorway, and only 20 mins from the stunning walled mediaeval city of Lucca, the location is ideal for exploring other Tuscan towns and cities, with distances as follows:
Montecarlo - 1.5km - beautiful walled town with its own fortress, famed for its vineyards and wine, situated on the 'Strada del Vino'
Stunning mediaeval fully walled city of Lucca - 15 km. Lucca, has regular markets, antiques markets, outdoor concerts with major names, or if you prefer nightly opera recitals, designer shopping, the wall which is wonderful for cycling, relaxing, children's parks, plenty of restaurants and bars, beautiful Piazzas.....
Pisa with it's leaning tower and cathedral - 37 km.
Montecatini Terme - beautiful spa town- 12km.
Florence , home of Michelangelo's David and The Pontevecchio - 60 km.
Beaches of Viareggio - 40 km.
San Gimignano - 70km
Whilst great as a base, the area itself is very beautiful, with plenty of vineyards and beautiful hilltop villages to visit, and the countryside is just stunning.....
NB - owner lives on site but in an 'underground ' property away from the main house, giving guests full privacy, with no worries about making a noise either! Owners available of course if they are needed and they keep the garden and pool area beautiful for you.
