Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Right in the lap of the rolling hills of Tuscany and Liguria, every waking moment at this home is set against surreal views. Tucked away and surrounded by lush greens, it is impossible not to embark on the idle biking trails to neighbouring villages before settling in for a long dip in the pool. The home is finished in well preserved natural stones and woods and the lofty volumes are fitted with modern comforts. And after you're back from a day of fresh seafood and sun bathing at Cinque Terre or Gulf of Poets, bond over board games or a session of table tennis. Before you retire to bed, it's worth checking out the library of movies and books and of course, having a go at the PS4.

Local guide
About Massa
Explore the wilder side of Tuscany with a visit to Massa-Carrara. With all its unruly forests and towering mountains, this small province is perfect for outdoor adventures. While the two main towns of Massa and Carrara are close to the coast, the real fun lies inland. The Campocecina Parco Alpi Apuane offers near-endless nature, with hundreds of kilometres of hiking to tackle and epic views over the area’s marble quarries....

Host
This home is managed by Oliver
This home is managed directly by a business. A member of their staff will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Nearly twenty years ago, Oliver and his friend began curating the world's most unique and rustic getaways. Driven by their own unforgettable experience at a chateau, they have grown remarkably since then. Much like Plum, they believe in hand-picked luxury that doesn't break the bank.
This home is nominated for the Plum Guide Award.
