WORK FROM SOMEWHERE NEW

Remote working

A promising base if you enjoy a quiet home office. Check fibre availability at the exact address: a nearby town having coverage does not guarantee a hillside home has it.

MAKE ROOM FOR LESS

Slower living

A strong fit for walking, gardening and small-town routines. Choose a home near the village centre if you want daily errands without driving.

GETTING AROUND

Everyday connections

Lucca is the regional city hub; Pisa is a useful airport. Valley towns have rail connections, while hillside villages often need a car.

THROUGH THE SEASONS

Climate & comfort

Expect warm summers and cooler, wetter winters than the coast. Elevation makes a substantial difference between neighbouring villages.

Before you picture the perfect life

Mountain villages can feel isolated in winter. Check heating, insulation, parking and access before committing.
