About this villa rental
Welcome to Your Tuscan Retreat!
We’re thrilled to host you in our peaceful hillside villa overlooking the beautiful town of Pescia. Whether you're here to relax, explore the Svizzera Pesciatina villages, or enjoy time with family and friends, this guide will help you settle in and make the most of your stay.
Getting Here & Around
The road up is narrow and steep—very common in rural Tuscany. A confident driver is helpful, and we recommend arriving during daylight the first time. You can find a video on YouTube called "The track to villa La Fortezza de Cerrato, San Lorenzo, Pescia,” which outlines what to expect. A smaller car or small SUV would be best, as you will be able to maneuver around the tight corners easier than in a larger vehicle. You can view a video of the road here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vaGM8Kj494k.
