This is a beautiful old farmhouse, which has been carefully restored. It is reached up a steep but well surfaced metalled road and offers panoramic views across the valley to the picturesque little hilltop village of Buggiano, with its castle, a tower and Roman church. From the house and garden you can see as far as Montecatini Terme and on clear days it is even possible to pick out S. Miniato in the distance. Montecatini Terme has some lovely buildings and - in its heyday - was the haunt of the rich and famous, including the crowned heads of Europe who used to come here to 'take the waters'.

Casa Alleluja makes a good base from which to visit all the main sights of Tuscany with Florence and Pisa, Lucca and the beaches around Viareggio all within easy travelling distance. Siena, Volterra and S. Gimignano are all worth travelling a little bit further for and - if you have children in your party - make sure you don't miss a visit to the Pinocchio Park only a few miles away at Collodi.

There is good shopping and a restaurant at Borgo a Buggiano just over a mile away and a huge supermarket at Montecatini.

Casa Alleluja has its own wooded grounds of around four acres and there are extensive woodlands behind the house where you could enjoy walking. In front of the house there is a beautiful terrace for eating out of doors and a swimming pool (8m x 4m) reached up a short but steep path. There are panoramic views from the terrace and the pool area and you will find the location very peaceful.

Note: The other two smaller properties at this location both sleep 2/4 and are let through an Italian agent.
