Area Guide
The word Tuscany conjures images of olive groves and vineyards, fine food and wine, romantic farmhouses lined with cypress trees and of course the sun set over Florence. Tourists are drawn every year by these beautiful images they see in glossy magazines, travel guides and through film and television. Many visitors can be forgiven for thinking that Chianti, Siena and Florence encompasses all Tuscany has to offer, however this is not so, and although these areas are enchanting there is much more to discover. Lunigiana offers a truly unspoilt corner of Tuscany and an inspired destination for the Italian traveller. The most Northern tip which borders the colourful Gulf of the Poets. The nearby Versilia coast overflows with sea side charm and is within easy reach the impressive city of Lucca, rich with Italian architecture and culture. In order to really understand Tuscany it is essential to experience its many contrasts and only then will you discover its true spirit.
Lunigiana is an area rich in history and tradition and set amidst magnificent scenery. The generous hospitality and relaxed pace to life make this a perfect destination for those wishing to escape the rush of modern life. The nearby Gulf of the Poets has attracted many writers, artists and film makers over the years. The quiet cosmopolitan coastline still retains its authenticity and charm. Excellent transport links provide easy accessibility to many of the centres of both Tuscany and Liguria.
If you have a passion for Italy and a desire to explore the less beaten tracks, then Lunigiana will not fail to impress. The only way to appreciate all that the region has to offer is to see it with your own eyes. We are sure that after your visit this will be a place you find difficult to forget.

Massa Carrara Area farm house rental reviews
Gary says: "Il Salice offerred a real opportunity to fully unwind in an area of outstanding beauty. The property was clean, comfortable and very well furnished and equipped with all the essentials. The covered terrace was put to use on most evenings providing a perfect setting to dine al fresco. The swimming pool was newly built with good quality loungers on which to catch the sun rays with unobscured views of nearby mountains and wooded areas. Il Salice is off the beaten track with a small village in walking distance offering one small bar, however the small shop was never open. Whilst locally there are many small towns and villages the main cities are quite a distance away and, with narrow twisting roads up and down hills, travelling time was often longer than expected. The nearest town with a supermarket of any size was Aulla with a drive of approx 40 mins. All in all a wonderful location in which to relax and a property that we would not hesitate in returning to."
