Casa Cinzia
Set in a highly panoramic position amongst silvery olive groves in magnificent countryside, between Lucca and the lively beach esorts of Viareggio and Forte dei Marmi on the Tuscan coast, Casa Fiora has been sensitively restored to provide a most comfortable and inviting holiday home.
The house is furnished in inviting country style with colour washed walls with wooden furniture and interesting mirrors and pictures and other pieces lending a personal touch. At ground floor level the sitting room opens out to a paved terrace with dining furniture that runs the full width of the property. At this level there is also a kitchen with modern fitted units, wooden dining table and chairs and fireplace. A shower room and pantry are also at this level. On the opposite of the property there is a smaller panoramic terrace looking towards the pool and therefore there is always a shaded area during the day. At first floor level there are two double bedrooms, one with a pretty blue and white colour scheme and the second with a coral colour scheme. There is a further twin bedroom, bathroom and shower room at this level.
The pool has been set into a grassy terrace adjacent to the house. The terraces and the pool area are perfect spots to relax and enjoy the outstanding views with distant hamlets, Romanesque churches and buildings on ridges clearly visible in the distance.
At dusk guests can watch the effects of the changing light on the countryside. Some guests will want to relax, others may wish to leisurely explore walking trails connecting local hamlets nestling in the hills and to visit local olive oil presses. Informal restaurants are tucked away in the countryside or in nearby villages.

Food Hamper
Can be arranged for an additional cost and service charge payable locally. For guests who are arriving late or who recognize they may be delayed and arrive with no time to do shopping. Shops are shut on Sundays, so the aim of the Food Hampers is to provide two light meals and two breakfasts, to allow guests to go out for one meal, then do more shopping on Monday. We can adapt these hampers to take into account allergies, dislikes and dietary requirements, or according to whether there are children in the party.
