Also look out for the antiques market that takes place every month.brbrPisa is also close by and is worthy of your time, not just because of its world-famous leaning tower but also its charming ambience by the riverside with its vibrant restaurants and beautiful buildings. Florence is just over an hour away with all its galleries and artistic treasures – guided tours can be arranged to make the most of your time in this magical city. You could even travel to Florence by train from nearby Pontedera. brbrSome of the villages and towns dotted across northern Tuscany should also be on your to-do list such as the gorgeous hilltop village of Collodi, home to Pinocchio’s creator, or Vinci, where you can visit the birthplace of Leonardo da Vinci. Spa-lovers should head to Montecatini Terme for its spas, boutiques and historic beauty. brbrSan Miniato is known as one of Tuscany’s most beautiful villages or head further south, driving through rolling Tuscan countryside, to spend time in Volterra or even San Gimignano, both just over an hour away. brbrPrivate tours can also be arranged if you would like to visit some of Tuscany’s finest vineyards, of which there are so many across the region. brbrNot forgetting the sea with Viareggio easily reached, fantastic for families with blue-flag beaches and a wealth of summer activities. For a more romantic coastal spot, drive further north to the mesmerising Golfo dei Poeti, about an hour away, an area which inspired both Shelley and Byron in the 19th century or visit the Cinque Terre National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site loved by visitors from across the world. brbrTerms & Conditions:brbrSecurity deposit br€2000 charged to client's credit card as a pre-authorisation at least 2 weeks prior to arrival and refunded two weeks after departure, subject to full inspection.brbrbrbrbrbrArrival time br3.00 p.m. - 7.00 p.m. Check-in outside this time may be subject to an extra cost, prior to owner's authorisation.

Casa Palanca is a bright and airy holiday villa situated in a residential area built up with local amenities and close to the historic city of Lucca. brbrThe well-maintained house is decorated in a rustic cottage style with exposed beams and traditional terracotta tiles which give the house a warm and welcoming feel. The cosy living area features a pretty fireplace and has lovely doors leading out to the garden whilst the charming kitchen-diner is ideal for cooking up a Tuscan feast. brbrThe two-bedroom home is a great base for a family or a small group of friends to stay who wish to explore the wonderful surrounding town and cities or you could simply while away your days relaxing by your lovely private pool or dining al-fresco under the delightful covered patio.brbrThere are plenty of amenities near to the house, with shops and restaurants just a short walk away and charming Tuscan villages within a short drive. When you are looking for somewhere more lively, Lucca, just 11km away, is full of great attractions to visit such as the city walls which can be explored by foot or by cycle. Inside the beautiful walls, there is also plenty to see including many ancient churches, after all Lucca is nicknamed ‘the city of a hundred churches’! A great one to start at is the cathedral which has been standing since the 11th century and is filled with stunning religious art. There are also plenty of trendy bars and restaurants to unwind in after a busy day of exploring. brbrYou are also well placed to head into the rolling Tuscan hills where you can enjoy hiking trails through ancient woodlands, have a picnic in the grounds of stunning botanical gardens of Renaissance villas or sample wines at wonderful vineyards. As well as being close to the campagna, you are also nestled in between the famous city of Pisa and the coastal town of Viareggio. Whether you would like to spend the day visiting the Leaning Tower or dipping your toes into beautiful blue seas, both are just 40 minutes from the villa by car. brbrPlease note that the owners are applying for a permit for a 'set-in-earth' swimming pool in 2022. If this is successful there will be an additional charge of €100 per week, payable directly to the owner on arrival. Watch this space for further information. brbrFeatures:brbrVilla Interior brbrGround Floorbrbr- Living room with fireplace, double sofa bed, satellite TV and doors out to garden br- Kitchen/dining room with table, hobs, oven, washing machine, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, microwave and coffee machine and door leading outsidebr- Twin bedroombr- Double bedroom with access to gardenbr- Bathroom with shower, bidet and toiletbrbrOutside Grounds (approx. 400m2)brbr- Swimming pool (6.6m x 2.8m, depth: 1.2m), open approximately beginning-May to mid-Septemberbr- Private garden with lawns and treesbr- Sun loungers and parasolsbr- Covered terrace with dining furniturebr- Barbecue br- ParkingbrbrFacilities brbr- Wi-Fibr- Satellite TVbr- Fireplacebr- Washing machine brbrLocation:brbrSituated in a residential area close to local shops and restaurants, Casa Palanca is an ideal base for an Italian holiday in Tuscany. Due to the great location, you are perfectly placed to enjoy the best of the Tuscan countryside as well as all of the culture and excitement of some of the most popular Italian cities.brbrJust 11km from your villa is the breathtaking city of Lucca which has enough attractions to fill all of your days if you want to stay local. A guided tour is a brilliant way to learn about Lucca’s history and find other attractions to visit along the way. There is one guided tour available which combines a walk around the walls of the city with wine tasting at different locations, a perfect way to spend an afternoon. Or if you are more of a foodie then there are many cookery classes at nearby farms or in the centre of Lucca, including pasta making courses.brbrViareggio is another great town to visit. The town has a thriving centre with plenty of shops and restaurants but is also on the coast so there are ports and beaches as far as the eye can see! Make sure you give the local seafood a try while you are there, though the kids may prefer a trip to one of the ice-cream parlours on the promenade. brbrIn the opposite direction is Pisa which has much more than its famous Leaning Tower to offer, though a visit to the main attraction is often enjoyed by everyone. A walk along the River Arno is great for getting away from the main tourist trail, have a drink in a local bar or look out the for lovely 14th century Palazzo Blu, a palace turned art gallery tucked away by the river.brbrA day out in Florence is another highlight of this area with its amazing art galleries, palazzi and churches. South of Florence, explore the famous Chianti hills, visiting vineyards and idyllic hilltop towns such as Castellina in Chianti, Certaldo and San Gimignano, all around ninety minutes away. brbrTerms & Conditions:brbrSecurity deposit br€200 paid in cash to the owner upon arrival and refunded upon departure, subject to full inspection.brbrArrival time br4.00 p.m. - 7.00 p.m.brbrDeparture time br8.00 a.m. - 10.00 a.m.brbrEnergy costs included brYes.brbrLinen & towels included brYes.brbrPets welcome brNot allowed.brbrChangeover day brSaturday in July and August.
