WHAT: A house to rest. A garden open to the valley and the pleasure not to hear any noise of cars and traffic. The security of being able to sleep with the windows wide open on the starry night. Sonni fresh and cheerful even in summer. The house of dinners with friends and relatives in the arbor, the house of birthdays, the August holiday, the Christmas house and transplanted city soared, fruit trees planted at various birth family, the chestnut " saved "by his grandfather Otello from the attack of ants, endless evenings spent playing cards, of starry nights ... This has been since 1972 the home of the weekend and our summer holidays. We restored piece by piece and decorated with our hands (we hope!) Decorated. The privileged location at the foot of a hamlet set on the hills of Pistoia allows you to have an unsurpassed view and especially the advantage of having no homes or attached to the side gardens and so allows total tranquility and privacy. But this requires the efforts of not being able to park the car outside the house. The meters to walk no more than 60 and paved terrain. Basic but it is not a suitable place to people with poor mobility or with wheelchair. WHERE: Our house is located in a small hamlet perched high on the hills of Pistoia. The hamlet is called "Casaccia" and consists of 5-6 houses inhabited by residents and 3-4 as holiday homes. The nearest town is Piteccio (3 km). Here you will find the grocery store with fresh bread, fruit and vegetables, pharmacy, post office, bars and bus stop COPIT to reach Pistoia. The car is essential! Public transport arriving to the village of Piteccio (autubus 25). From here we have to go 3 km of which 2.5 uphill. An ideal place to spend a few relaxing days! Enjoy the wonderful landscape, the silence, the sun and cool temperatures even in the days of hot sun. In a few minutes it can reach Pistoia and from there - by train or car - Lucca, Pisa, Florence, Prato the Montalbano hills with Carmignano, Artimino and Vinci. HOW: You enter through a gate directly onto the foliage-filled terrace in front of the house. On the right side of the house a large garden with a huge fir tree in the center and a corner with barbecue and wood-burning oven where you can cook wonderful roasts and bake pizzas to remember! The house is on 2 floors. On the ground floor a living room, a dining room with fireplace and a fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher, refrigerator, oven, stove glass ceramic, toaster, kettle. Upstairs there are two rooms: a large master bathroom with a shower and a second smaller one with a double bed can be divided into two single beds. In this room there is a small bathroom with sink and toilet. A third small room will not be made available to guests and please understand if you find the door locked. You will have the whole house except the small bedroom (where we will keep our things) and an outside storage room. The highlight of the house is of course the outside with the garden, the terrace in front of the oven and barbecue next to the house. WHO: We (Marcello and Rowena) we do not live in this house but in Prato (about 30 km). During the booking stage you will answer my daughter Elena. My daughter will be available via SMS, email, whatsapp, and also by telephone for any clarification / necessity. Even my wife and I will be ready to intervene in extraordinary cases. In case of urgent needs there are always people in the hamlet to which to refer. A person of our trust resident in the hamlet, will hand over the keys and welcome you in case we were unable.
