Casa San Giusto - Sleeping 7 + 1

This 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom (one with tub) detached cottage is beautifully and peacefully located, amongst gardens of olive tree terraces and commands an impressive view over the Serchio Valley, and the river far below.

This comfortable, airy and spacious cottage is a real home from home, created by the owners so they can enjoy holidays here too….a perfect place to relax, yet conveniently located for exploring..

Whilst there are now all modern amenities, the owers have been careful to retain the character and rustic charm of the house, and there are beamed ceilings, traditional flooring and original windows with internal shutters throughout.

Situated on the Sunny side of the valley this is a perfect spot for relaxing in the late afternoon, and dining outside watching the sun go down. There are two terraces for relaxing in the sunshine, or shade, and the mature garden with its shrubs, flowers and olive trees emanates Tuscany….For days when a cool off is required, or just for sitting in with a glass of wine, there is the small out of ground pool - 5Mx 3.75M, great for those weary feet after a day out sightseeing and good fun for the children.

For cooler evenings there is a large living/diner, with plenty of comfortable seating and a fireplace. Cooking at home is a breeze with the well equipped, hand made kitchen…
