Lovingly restored stone cottage with original features of high wood beamed ceilings, ceramic floors, and where the caves are still in use today. The home has original Tuscan antiques and furnishings, but all with a modern flair. This is not a traditional holiday home as it was designed for the owner to live in, and is furnished with every attention to detail.
The house is ideally located in a hilltop village offering spectacular scenery, the chesnut hills and valley views and stunning mountain peaks surround you. Peaceful, tranquil, and ideal for kicking back and relaxing.
The home sleeps up to six people, with the additional option of an apartment in the village, that can sleep another three, and this is offered free of charge when booked together with Casa Michele. See Casa della Nonna on this website for photos and a complete desc...

Wonderful authentic Tuscan cottage with amazing views of the mountains from the terrace. Plenty of places to visit - Pisa, Lucca, Cinque Terre. Roads very windy and narrow around the property,but you get used to them. Perfect if you want a quiet, relaxing holiday.

About the neighbourhood
The town of Fivizzano is a short fifteen minute drive away and offers everything you need to make your stay an enjoyable one. Supermarkets, locally made breads and desserts, wines, cheeses, fruits and vegetables. There is a large and well appointed hospital, doctors, dentists, pharmacy, and a wonderful open air market every Tuesday morning selling clothing, household goods, foods of the area, shoes, children's toys and clothing. A great atmosphere and wonderful people watching in the two bars in the village square, which house the outdoor market - a must see. A small but lovely spa town Equi Terme offering great cures in their thermal waters, spa treatments, or plain lazing around one of their two large swimming pools is a great day out.

A small but lovely spa town Equi Terme offering great cures in their thermal waters, spa treatments, or plain lazing around one of their two large swimming pools is a great day out. There is a book full of information in the property with ideas and suggestions for you for day trips to all the local attractions.
There is also a local ski resort thirty minutes drive above Fivizzano, which makes a lovely day outing in the summer months also, as there is a great park and lake as well as wonderul restaurants offering local delicacies of the area. We are less than an hour from the Italian Riviera and the seaside, and a day's outing to Lerici for its famous seafood and outdoor market on a Saturday morning are definitely a must do! You can take the boat and visit the beautiful Cinque Terre, and can hike between the five villages, hopping on and off the boat as you feel, and taking advantage of the great restaurants each of these wonderful little villages has to offer. Or pack and picnic to go, and enjoy one of the beaches of the Cinque Terre to relax and soak in the atmosphere.
Casa Michele, the property is situated in a medieval hilltop village called Luscignano, a short five minute drive to the closest village offering all the facilities, butcher, baker, groceries, cafe, bar, even two restaurants offering local fare at very affordable prices. There is even a doctor and a dentist, should they be required, as well as a pharmacy, hairdresser and even a local gym!
The area is known for its' natural beauty and unspoilt nature surrounds you. Ideal for walking, hiking, biking or just relaxing and taking in the beautiful views from either one of the two terraces, or relaxing in a hammock swinging gently from the olive trees in the garden taking in the majesty of the Apuane Alps which face the property.
