-Around

You can enjoy walking on some of the paths which lead directly from our doorstep through olive groves and woodland to the nearby village of Castelvecchio di Compito (10 min walk) and over the hills to Buti (7km walk), a hill village with shops and restaurants. Bientina, a small town just a few minutes drive away has full amenities including supermarket, shops, restaurants, banks, weekly market, antiques market (monthly) and in July the town holds a palio (bareback horse race) in the main square. We are ideally situated for sightseeing as Lucca is only 20 minutes away, the nearest autostrada exit in Altopascio is a 10 minute drive and Pisa and Florence are 30 and 45 minutes or you can avoid city driving by taking the train from Pontedera our nearest train station (15 mins).

Nearest restaurant and grocery shops:  in the local village  1km from the house.
