La Cheta - House in the hills with garden, between Lucca and the beaches of Viareggio
"La Cheta" is a detached country home with a garden, located in the hills surrounding Lucca, a twenty-minute drive from the beautiful beaches of Viareggio. It’s ideal for alternating visits to nearby cities of art (Lucca 20 minutes, Pisa 30 minutes, Florence 1 hour) with beach holidays. The house is furnished in a rustic style. It features a large living room with a sofa and dining table, which opens onto a large, fully equipped separate kitchen. The kitchen features a second dining table and a fireplace-grill for barbecuing. The house has two bedrooms with double beds, a small bedroom with a single bed, and a bathroom with a shower and bidet. The house is accessed through a large tiled courtyard, enclosed by a gate, where you can also park your car. The courtyard features a gazebo with a table, chairs, and a barbecue for cooking and dining outdoors. At the back of the house is a large fenced-in garden, also for the exclusive use of guests, which is accessed via a pedestrian path. The ground floor of the house, which I also own, is unoccupied. “La Cheta” is nestled in lush greenery, surrounded by countryside, woods, vineyards, and olive groves. All kinds of shops and a supermarket can be found nearby. On the coast lies Viareggio (15 km), the most important city in the area, with beautiful beaches and beach resorts, cinemas, and elegant shops. South of Viareggio lie the free, unspoiled beaches of the Migliarino and San Rossore Natural Park, reachable by car in about 20 minutes. Continuing north for a few kilometres, you’ll pass other famous towns in Versilia, eventually reaching the elegant and exclusive Forte dei Marmi (30 km). Inland lies the charming town of Pietrasanta (20 km), a destination for sculptors and artists from around the world: in the summer, it hosts major art exhibitions and concerts. Not far away is Camaiore (15 km), an ancient town famous for its culinary specialities Furthermore, from “La Cheta,” you can quickly reach Lucca (16 km), Pisa (28 km), and Florence (100 km) for wonderful art tours.

Great quiet clean and beautiful location. Had everything for cooking and close enough to a good grocery to get more. Easy communication with the host too
We had our lovely three weeks vacation at la Cheta. It is very peaceful and safe, located at the end of the village, only fields around and a beehive in the bush. There is a bit of a distant road sound at times, as we kept the windows open. Good air circulation and sun sheds, so it was pleasant during the day with 37 degrees. Very few mosquitoes (there are nets in some windows, but we used a vaporizer at night with the windows open).Clean and nicely arranged house. Accurate photos and description. Comfortable beds, fully equipped kitchen (no dishwasher), working bathroom (a bit tight toilet seat for a taller person), super nice terrace that we used a lot.The host lives nearby. She is very friendly and helpful. Speaks Italian and English.Spacious parking, enough for two cars. Easy access. The host gave exact driving directions.You need a car to move around.Supermarkets (Eurospin, Conad, Coop) are 15 min down the road. Al Casone pizzeria is traditional, great taste and good price. Nicola pizzeria offers very special large size pizzas.Private doctor in Camaiore (Campus Major, European level prices), plus the host can give more directions.Free sandy beach about 40 min by car, south of Camaoire (via Kennedy). A lot of space, safe and clean.Plenty of sightseeing (Lucca, Pisa) and hiking opportunities (a good start is Sant'Anna with a few circular trails).

Thank you Boris, we are happy that you had a nice holiday and that you enjoyed your stay in our house. It is always a pleasure to meet and host people like you. You are always welcome
Alles war genauso wie beschrieben. Uns hat es sehr gut gefallen. Es ist sehr ruhig und nachts kühlt es in den Bergen angenehm ab. Wir haben es sehr genossen, ums Haus gehen zu können und so immer Schatten zu haben. Es gibt 3 Schlafzimmer, 2x Doppelbett und 1x Einzelbett. Groß genug, damit sich jeder mal zurückziehen konnte. Das einzige, was uns nicht gefallen hat, war das Badezimmer. Es war zu klein. Man muss schräg auf der Toilette sitzen, damit die Beine nicht die Duschwand berühren. Auch ist es ziemlich in die Jahre gekommen.Klar, dass man ein Auto benötigt, das hatten wir aber mit eingeplant. Das W-lan war im Haus gut, auf der Terrasse manchmal zu schwach. Veronica und Gianpiero waren sehr hilfsbereit und die Kommunikation war sehr gut. Uns hat es insgesamt gut gefallen, auch die Lage war perfekt. Gute Ausgangslage, um nach Lucca, Pisa oder an verschiedene Strände zu fahren. Wir würden wiederkommen.
Très bon accueil de Veronica. Location située en pleine campagne mais services et activités assez proche en voiture : villes de Lucca, Viarregio et Camaïore, plages, restaurants... Séjour varié dans les activités.
