General overview
Our happy place on the Tuscany coast is a second home which we have split into 2 separate units and made a guests wing to allow flexibility for family and friends when they visit.
It is located just a few steps from the centre of a small town south of Livorno/Leghorn, in a quiet spot, on the top of a small hill just 3 minutes walkin from the pedestrian centre. It is also about 10 minutes walking from the train station and bus terminal, connecting any cities in Tuscany for day trips. Rome is 3 hours away both via direct train or car. Super bike friendly area, we have bikes in our garage free for our guests to use. The board walk of Marina di Cecina with its numerous beaches is only 20 minutes walking or 15 minutes cycling away for which we are happy to make our bikes available to our guests ;)
Supermarkets, countless pizza places, ice cream parlors, restaurants, local weekly market, pretty much everything is within walking distance to enjoy a truly Tuscany laid back dolce vita!
The space
Our guest apartment on the 1st floor consists of a large bedroom, a big bathroom with double sink and XL shower, a kitchen/dining area with a small couch and a murphy bed for an extra guest and a balcony. A/C and ceiling fans are provided and quite handy in the hotter period. The access via a shared balcony is also shaded via an electric awning.
Downstars we have a large shaded terrace with a dining table, a BBQ and a sink, together with an outdoor shower, very convenient when coming back from the beach ;)
The terrace is a great place to relax and enjoy freshly grilled food or great meals or pizza delivered by the lovely Al Ponte restaurant 100 meters/300 yards away ;)
Guest access
7 steps from the street to the terrace, apartment is on the 1st floor (freight lift available)
