Podere In Cima

Our house (4 double rooms, 2 bathrooms, 2 living rooms,kitchen, terrace, sleep 8 pax maximum) is situated on the hillsides at twelve kilometres from the town of Luccain the midst of olive groves .

The building has its origins in the middle of the eighteenth century and was recently re-structured.

It would appear that it was originally a home to monks and testifying to this is the presence of a tiny chapel a few metres from the house itself but forming part of the same property.
The small church is deconsecrated now but still hosts a village event dedicated to the Virgin Mary each end of May.

In front of the house there is an shaded open space equipped with table and chairs, deckchairs and a swinging seat, where guests can relax or dine al fresco.

A perfectly-functioning antique wood burning oven is also sited to the front of the house where guests can prepare barbecued meats, pizzas and cakes.
An ideal place to relax surrounded by nature and immersed in the quiet of the countryside.

BEDROOMS
The house is structured on two floors and has three double bedrooms and a single, two bathrooms, a kitchen with fireplace, a dining room, a reading room furnished with armchairs and fireplace, a study and a terrace overlooking the valley.
The bedrooms are furnished in an antique style and are comfortable, light and airy.
The restfulness of the situation gives our guests the possibility of a totally relaxing holiday.

SERVICES
Even if sited on a hillside far from the noises and chaos of towns, in only thirty minutes guests can arrive on the beaches of the Riviera della Versilia (Viareggio and Lido di Camaiore) and in forty five, the Miracle Square of Pisa with its famous Leaning Tower and in a little over an hour, the city of Florence.

For those guests preferring walks in the surrounding woodland, a few trails which were originally paths connecting nearby villages start from the house.

We are pleased to offer information and advice about the town of Lucca and the surrounding area, on cultural events in the province (Summer Festival, Puccini Festival, events in Versilia), touring and gastronomic itineraries, on timetables of local public transport.
