For the more energetic, there are tennis courts nearby and bicycles and scooters
can be hired in the town, and also the possibility of transfers to the beach (ask at reception).
Simply but comfortably furnished, with light and airy rooms, all apartments sleep up to 4, with 1 double bedroom,
living/dining room with double sofa-bed, shower/WC, and kitchenette with 2 electric plates and microwave, fridge/freezer.
This opens onto a small balcony with table and chairs.
The seaside resort of Marina di Pietrasanta and the surrounding area offer nearly 5kms of wide, gently sloping
sandy beach and transparent blue sea, set against a backdrop of pine forests and mountains, just a few km away.
For those who wish to venture further, there are numerous villages and towns within easy reach.
Viareggio is one of the best known beach resorts in Tuscany, hosting the Carnevale di Viareggio, one of the biggest
carnival festivals in Italy. Just 10 minutes from the residence, there are good seafood restaurants, shopping,
and nightlife. 10 minutes in the other direction will bring you to Forte dei Marmi - famous for its long stretches
of sandy beach and its fascinating landscape, dominated by the rugged Apuan Alps and marble quarries. Here you
will also discover charming villages nestled in the numerous valleys or perched at the top of hills.
Pisa is approximately 40 minutes by car. Known throughout the world for its famous Leaning Tower (actually the
bell tower for the enormous Duomo, or cathedral), Pisa is crammed full of wonderful, historic monuments and buildings
dating back many hundreds of years and much of Pisa has retained its medieval appearance. The many remarkable Pisan
buildings combine Moorish, Gothic and Romanesque architectural features.
Lucca, the home of Puccini is about the same distance as Pisa, and one not to be missed. A real gem, Lucca is full
of arched doorways revealing vaulted passages and columns. This is a town where you can dispense with a map and
simply walk or, like the locals, cycle. Why not climb one or other of the two highest bell-towers to look out on
the mazy rooftops of the town or visit the many churches, including the fine Duomo with its own museum. Renowned
for its concerts, which take place in the bigger piazzas during the summer, there are also plenty of galleries
to keep art lovers happy.
Of course no visit to Tuscany would be complete without a visit to Florence. Known as the cradle of the Renaissance
and one of the greatest cities in the world, Florence provides a feast of history, art and architecture, and you
will be spoilt for choice, with the Uffizi Gallery, the Pitti Palace and the Ponte Vecchio, to name but a few.
Please note that the pool will be open from 20 May until 30 September.
