Bagni di Lucca

distance to property: 10 km

Bagni di Lucca (Baths of Lucca, formerly Bagno a Corsena) is a commune of Tuscany, Italy, in the Province of Lucca with a population of 6,551.

In the village of Bagno Caldo there is a hospital constructed largely at the expense of Nicholas Demidoff in 1826. In the valley of the Serchio, 3 miles below Ponte a Serraglio, is the medieval Ponte della Maddalena (circa 1100), with its lofty central arch. It is also know as 'Ponte del Diavolo'.

The commune is known for its springs which are situated in the valley of the Lima River, a tributary of the Serchio river. The district is known in the early history of Lucca as the Vicaria di Val di Lima. Ponte Serraglio is the principal village of the warm spring area, but there are warm springs and baths also at Villa, Docce Bassi, and Bagno Caldo.

Abetone

distance to property: 33 km

The municipality of Abetone, at 1388 meters s.l.m., center of the homonymous district, is a tourist mountain destination aspired both in the winter, thanks to its 50 km of slopes with a lot of lifts, and in the summer, thanks to its numerous paths that allow the lovers of hiking to enjoy long walks in the middle of the fauna, flora and beautiful landscapes of Appennine.

Forte dei Marmi

distance to property: 60 km

Derives its name from the old fortress that still remains in the main piazza and the pier that was once used for loading marble. This gem of Versilia became a highly fashionable resort in the 1970?s attracting many international and some ?would be? celebrities and has in recent years undergone a facelift to become popular again as a chic destination. Grand old villas of the late 19th Century provide the perfect facade of this luxury town with important families of Italian industry and design owning villas here. For those seeking retail therapy Italian style the town will not fail to impress with some of the most famous brands in the world. Even if many of the shops sell some of the most expensive items money can buy, it has managed to retain a strangely relaxed and somewhat unpretentious atmosphere. Stylish boutiques and cafes line the streets, ideal for a drink while you ponder over a purchase. Maybe you will catch a glimpse of a famous face hidden behind the compulsory sunglasses. Before you reach for your credit cards, visit the weekly market on Wednesdays and during the summer on Sunday where often you can find some designer bargains. When you have had enough of shopping you can always escape to one of the beach clubs for some sun, sea and relaxation.

Cinque Terre

distance to property: 90 km

The Cinque Terre - five fishing villages on the Ligurian coast - Riomaggiore, Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza and Monterosso, audaciously balance over the sea. Formerly accessible only by sea or by a series of cliff-skirting footpaths, the villages have retained much of their original charm. While nowadays they are far from undiscovered, they remain unspoiled and form part of a protected National Park and Marine Area. Generations of the villages� citizens have built and maintained steep, dry stone-walled terraces that slope down to the sea. Vineyards, olive groves and citrus trees populate the landscape, the only one of its kind in the world.

High cliffs reaching down to the sea hide minute shingle beaches at Riomaggiore and Vernazza or tiny ports like Manarola where sunbathers mix with fishermen. Monterosso has a large sandy beach, with beach clubs and facilities. Corniglia, the only village not on the sea, nestles on a hill surrounded by vineyards and offers fabulous views of the coastline. Between Corniglia and Vernazza lies the nudist beach, Guvano, only reachable on foot.

The Cinque Terre are still best reached by train or boat, although a windy often precarious road does exist. Exploring is best done by foot.

Take the train from Aulla to Riomaggiore and walk the famous Via dell' Amore (Lovers Way) that skirts the cliff over to Manarola. (30 minutes) If you�re feeling energetic, you can continue on to Monterosso � a 5 hour walk � or take the train in any of the villages if you get tired along the way. Several other walks crisscross the surrounding countryside and the National Park provides route maps.

Viareggio

distance to property: 60 km

Is the oldest of the coastal towns on the Versilia. Its origins are Roman and in the middle ages it was an important sea landing. In the 19th century it was reputed to have built some of the best boats ever to sail on the Tyrrhenian Sea and the boatyards are very much alive still today. Viareggio reached its hey day at the turn of the century with a number of the original buildings remaining in the town. Along the palmed fringed boulevards Art Nouveau style of architecture can be seen in the grand hotels, villas and cafes built in the 1920s. The finest example is the Gran Caffe Margherita at the end of the Passeggiata Margherita, designed by the father of Italian Art Nouveau, Galileo Chini. Viareggio is known best for its extravagant carnival held in January and early February second only to the more famous festival of Venice. Today this is the most popular resort on the Versilia coast. During the summer months there is a lively atmosphere and any train bound here on a summers morning is likely to be full of people heading for an easily organised day at the beach. Forget tiny coves with hidden beaches where you can throw down a towel as Viareggio is commercialised with private stretches of beaches that charge for entry. All are equipped with towels, changing rooms and sun loungers for the convenience of the beach enthusiast. Many find the resort a bit too commercial however a few things are for certain, several miles long of excellent beach, clean and groomed sand and a relaxed beach atmosphere. Seafood restaurants are plentiful even if the prices are quite high but they are some of the best on the coast. If you don?t mind sitting in organised rows on the beach with everything at hand, then Viareggio provides an ideal resort.
