A place like home
 
Our garden with view
 
WHAT:
A place like home. A garden open to the valley.
Calmness and quieteness: absolutely no trafic noise.
Feeling safe sleeping with windows opened to the starry nights.
Fresh and cool nights even in hot summertime.
This is the house where we had so many lunches, dinners, parties with friends and family under the pergola. The house in whose garden we planted a small Christmas tree that after more than 40 years became so tall and big.... that in Novembre 2019 a strong wind made fallen down!
The garden where a new tree was planted for every new born baby.
The house with the big kastanientree saved from death by Granpa Otello. 
The house of endless card games and starry nights...We bought this house in 1972 and used it many many years as a holiday house. At that time we restored the house completely and furnitured it with love according our taste.
Our place lays on the hills around Pistoia - only 12 km away - in a small group of houses called "Casaccia". The place and its view takes literally the breath away!
A little fee must be paid for that: cars must be parked about 60 mt (sixty) away from home on the road and walk the short distance to our house.
The path to the house is light and large to walk but not suitable for people on rollchair . 


WHERE:

Our house lays on the hills near Pistoia, 3 km past the village called Piteccio

 
The small group of houses is called "Casaccia". ca 12 persons live here the whole year long. 3 more houses are used as holiday homes. The nearest village is Piteccio (3 km) where you can find a small supermarket, Farmacy, Post office, 2 Bars and bus stop to go to Pistoia.

Please note that a car is absolutely a must!

You can reach Piteccio by bus (nr 25 copit) but from Piteccio to our house there are 3 more km to walk and 2 of them are really steepy!

HOW:

You enter the property from a gardengate and you are on the terrace in front of the house under the pergola. Facing the house, on your right you will find a big garden and the roofed BBQ and pizza oven.

HOUSE RULES:

For the first time in 2017 we rented our house. It was not a simple decision to take: this is "our" place where so many things remind us to our family and also to people that are not we us anymore.... 
We simply expect you to respect our home and what you will find in it - even if many little things can seem unuseful, stupid or worthless to you.       
Moreover 3 little rules:
  • Smoking is not allowed in house. Please, if you can't do without, just smoke in the garden and please collect your cigarette butts in the ashtray!
  • This is a very quite place! The place is not proper for loud music and loud partiest.
  • Pets are welcome! Even if you are in the countryside, please collect your pet's feces and remove them from the garden.

Enjoy your holiday!
