Our House is what you are looking for.
Located in one of the most beautiful tuscan landscapes, it is an enchantingly renovated old country house set on the hillside near the little town of Palaia (Pisa) and surrounded by a marvellous natural fresco where flowers, olives and vineyards are some of the main subjects.
The house is completely furnished in a rustic way, with traditional floors and nice wooden beam-ceilings.
On the ground floor you can find the kitchen/dining room complete with oven, big wooden dining table, a large hob, freezer, fridge and TV.
The sitting room, where you can relax by the fire on two comfortable sofas and listen to some good music, is carefully furnished and communicates with the dining room.
The bathroom is also on the ground floor and has a roomy shower, basin, w.c. and bidet.
Upstairs there are two bedrooms, the first one with twin beds and excellent wardrobe and the second with a double bed, TV and DVD as well.
Every little detail has been chosen with much care and interest.
From our house guests may reach every interesting historical city like Florence, Pisa, Lucca or important seaside resorts like Viareggio (with its large beaches) and Castiglioncello (with its rocky coast) in more or less one hour.
The house, completely isolated from noise and pollution of towns, is ideal for those who look for relax and privacy.
Moreover the location is well related with the most famous “wine itinerary” and it is for example very nice to drive along the road to San Gemignano, which passes through hills and valleys, and along which many farms produce and sell their own olive oil and wine for competitive prices. Or maybe going
further to Siena (about one hour thirty by car) and eat “spaghetti” in Piazza del Campo, which in august changes into a race-course and you can see the Palio.
The house is equipped with all the modern facilities to make your stay as pleasant and easy as possible.
There is nothing more to say; now it is time to see our house with your own eyes!
