Situated in northern Tuscany, not too far from the beaten track and in the
foothills of the Apennine mountains lies the beautiful, yet quiet Svizzeria
Pesciatina (Pescia’s Switzerland). Our traditional stonebuilt farmhouse
sits amongst its own 12 acres of woodland in a
commanding position overlooking the village of
Pietrabuona, where fierce battles were played out
between Florence and Pisa during the middle ages.
Our farmhouse was fully restored in 2007 and now
has a self-contained apartment on the ground level
with living/dining room, bedroom and shower
room. A west-facing patio in front of the apartment
affords wonderful views across the valley to the
village of Pietrabuona as well as some spectacular
sunsets - a perfect spot to escape to and relax in after
a busy day’s sightseeing in nearby Florence, Lucca,
Pisa or one of the many hilltop towns, or an energetic
day’s cycling, hiking or even skiing.
We are situated just north of the village of
Pietrabuona and only 3 miles north of the medieval
town of Pescia - a fully functioning Italian town
famous for its cut flower production and paper
mills, which offers supermarkets, bars, pizzerias,
restaurants, coffee shops, banks and a train station
- meaning you need not go far for the essentials.
So come and immerse yourself in everything
Tuscany has to offer at Numero 182.
