La Pergola is a tastefully restored landowners farmhouse, known as a Casa Colonica. The house is situated in a beautiful area of Tuscany surrounded by hills with olive groves and pines. Situated above the ancient Medici village of Buti with fabulous views over a large area of Tuscany, La Pergola is located only 30 minutes drive from Pisa airport and perfect for visiting many of the famous Tuscan towns. It is a quiet location, offering privacy and relaxation. The historic village of Buti is 1.5 kms walk, where you will find small shops, restaurants and bars.
The building is a former farmhouse that has been restored using original materials (brick, wood, stone) and furnished with antique furniture in the tradition of the region.
On the ground floor is the well equipped modern kitchen, dining room with traditional open fireplace, a bedroom with two single beds, and a bathroom with shower. Upstairs is a master bedroom with en-suite toilet (no shower or bath), a single bedroom, a large bedroom containing a double bed and a single bed leading to a small terrace, and a bathroom with bathtub. The house also has another terrace for sunbathing. The garden is terraced over a few levels.
The property includes a 10 x 4 metre private swimming pool with a nice sunbathing area. At the front of the house a large pergola shades the terrace which has a table and chairs, perfect for outdoor dining. There's also a barbecue and stone pizza oven. From the pool and from the terrace you can enjoy a fantastic view of the surrounding hills and on the village of Buti. There is free Wi-Fi.
The village of Buti lies below the villa. To reach the villa our guests must drive through the beautiful olive grove on a farmers road. The road is gravel and quite narrow with bends and we do not recommend coming with trailers or caravans or very low down sports cars. The road has little traffic as it is only used by the farmers and 5 other houses.
The garden is fully fenced and suitable for dogs.
The location is ideal as a starting point to visit the cities of Tuscany: Lucca and Bagni di Lucca, nearby San Miniato, Pisa, Florence, Volterra, San Gimignano and Certaldo. On the Ligurian coast, while the resorts of Viareggio and Forti dei Marmi are within easy reach as well as the beautiful coastal villages of Lerici and Portovenere.
A tourist tax of 1 euro per person per day will be collected by the owner.
The pool is open from mid May to mid September. Can be opened early/ late for a feee.
