DESCRIPTION
A place to live at your own rhythm, between the Apuan Alps and the Tuscan sea.
This independent 60 sqm wooden house is set within our large green property in the hills of Montemagno di Camaiore, surrounded by nature, silence and open views towards the coast.
It is a place for people looking for something different from a city apartment: a comfortable private home where you can work remotely, study, create, rest or simply experience everyday life in Tuscany for a few weeks or several months.
THE HOUSE
The wooden house is completely independent and has everything you need for everyday living.
The interior is a spacious 60 sqm open-plan area with a double bed and a double sofa bed. The sleeping area can be visually separated from the living space with a curtain whenever more privacy is desired.
There is a fully equipped private kitchen, a private bathroom and a comfortable living area. The house can accommodate up to four guests, although it is particularly spacious and comfortable for one person or a couple staying for a longer period.
Wi-Fi is available, and bed linen and towels are provided. The house has air conditioning and heating, including a wood-burning stove for colder days.
Private outdoor parking is available on the property.
Open the door in the morning and you are immediately surrounded by greenery. You can have breakfast outside, work quietly during the day, read in the garden or simply enjoy having space around you.
SPACE, SILENCE AND PRIVACY
One of the things we value most about this place is the sense of space.
We live in the main house, while the property also includes the wooden house, a glass house and a small tree house. The different accommodations are positioned separately within the property and surrounded by greenery, so each retains its own character and privacy.
There are very few neighbouring houses in the immediate surroundings, and outside the summer season the area is particularly peaceful.
Although we live on the same property and are available if you need us, you are not staying “with us”. The wooden house is your own home during your stay, and your privacy is fully respected.
There is no expectation to socialise, participate in activities or become involved in our everyday life.
You can close your door, work, cook, read, explore Tuscany and spend your time entirely on your own if that is what you are looking for.
Or, if you are curious, there is another side of the place to discover.
ART, NATURE AND CREATIVITY
We are a couple who have gradually created this place around our own lives, interests and work.
I am a sculptor and my marble and ceramic sculpture studio is here on the property. My wife works with medicinal plants, meditation and personal exploration.
Around the houses grow aromatic and medicinal plants, flowers, fruit trees and a small vegetable garden. The land changes throughout the year and, depending on the season, offers herbs, fruit and vegetables that are part of our everyday life.
Art, books and music are also naturally present here. There is a piano and a selection of musical instruments that guests can use with care and upon request.
If you are interested in sculpture, you are welcome to discover the studio and, when possible and arranged with us, even try working with stone yourself. You do not need any previous experience.
These are not organised activities that come with your stay and there is absolutely no expectation that you take part in them. They are simply possibilities that exist around you.
Some people may enjoy discovering the plants, playing music, visiting the sculpture studio or sharing a conversation with us. Others may prefer to spend an entire month quietly working and enjoying their own space.
Both are equally welcome.
THE GARDEN AND SWIMMING POOL
The property is surrounded by garden, trees and natural outdoor spaces that guests can enjoy throughout the year.
During the warmer months, life naturally moves outside. You can work or read outdoors, have a meal in the garden or simply enjoy the landscape.
The swimming pool, situated at the heart of the property, is seasonal and available during its opening period. When it is open, guests can enjoy the pool as part of their stay.
During winter the pool is closed, but the garden, countryside and outdoor spaces remain available.
BETWEEN THE MOUNTAINS AND THE SEA
Montemagno di Camaiore is in a special position between the Apuan Alps, the Tuscan countryside and the Versilia coast.
Behind the property rise the Apuan Alps, with extraordinary landscapes, mountain villages and beautiful hiking and trekking routes.
In front of us, the landscape opens towards the coast and Lake Massaciuccoli, also known as Lake Puccini, and on clear days you can see the island of Gorgona on the horizon. A sea breeze often reaches the hill, particularly during the warmer months.
Camaiore is the nearest town for everyday services.
Pietrasanta, famous internationally for sculpture, marble and contemporary art, is within easy reach, as are Viareggio and the beaches of the Versilia coast.
Lucca, with its historic centre and Renaissance walls, is an easy destination for a day out, while further north the marble landscape of Carrara and the Apuan quarries offers one of the most distinctive experiences of this part of Tuscany.
The location allows you to spend one day by the sea, another walking in the mountains, another discovering Tuscan towns – and then return home to silence and nature.
GETTING AROUND
Public transport connections are available in the area, but we prefer to be completely transparent: having a car is strongly recommended.
This is a countryside home rather than an urban apartment. A car gives you much greater freedom for shopping, reaching the coast and surrounding towns, exploring the mountains and making the most of this part of Tuscany.
Private outdoor parking is available directly on the property.
MAKE THE PLACE YOUR OWN
Over the years we have welcomed students, artists, friends and people from different countries and backgrounds. Some came here to create, some to study or work, and others simply needed somewhere beautiful and peaceful to live for a while.
You don't need to be an artist. You don't need to meditate. You don't need to know anything about medicinal plants, play an instrument or be interested in sculpture.
You can do all of those things – or none of them.
You can swim when the pool is open, play the piano, discover the garden, try sculpture, walk in the mountains, go to the sea and meet us when you feel like it.
Or you can close the door of your wooden house, make yourself a coffee, work for the day, cook dinner and enjoy being completely on your own in the Tuscan hills.
For us, both ways of living here are perfect.
We don't want to offer a hotel or a conventional tourist experience. We simply want to share a place we love – a home between art, nature, the mountains and the sea, where you have the freedom to make your time your own.

A few practical things to know before your stay:
We have cats living on the property, and you may see them around the garden and outdoor areas. They do not need to enter your accommodation, but guests with severe cat allergies should be aware of their presence.
Pets are welcome upon prior agreement, particularly because our cats live freely on the property.
The swimming pool is seasonal and available only during its opening period.
Private outdoor parking on the property is free and does not require a reservation.
Smoking is not permitted inside the house, but guests may smoke outdoors.
Although the property is surrounded by nature, it is not completely isolated. A small grocery shop, local bars and restaurants can be reached on foot. A pharmacy and post office are approximately 3 km away and easily reached by car.
Versilia Hospital is approximately 20–25 minutes away by car.
Public transport is available within walking distance, although we strongly recommend having a car for everyday independence and for exploring the coast, mountains and surrounding towns.
We live on the same property and are available whenever practical help is needed, while fully respecting our guests' privacy and independence.
My name is Lorenzo. I am a sculptor and musician, and I live here with my wife in the hills of Tuscany. Over the years we hMy name is Lorenzo. I am a sculptor and musician, and I live here with my wife, Ilaria, in the hills of Tuscany. We have created this place gradually over the years, following our lives rather than a plan. Art, nature, music, books, plants and the need for space and silence have all become part of it. My sculpture studio is here on the property, where I work mainly with marble and ceramics. Sculpture has been at the centre of my life for many years, but music is also an important part of it. I play piano, hang, guitar and trumpet, and you will find different musical instruments around the property. Ilaria teaches philosophy and mindfulness and is also a writer. She loves the plants and herbs that grow naturally around us, collecting wild and medicinal herbs and using them in cooking and in everyday life. One of the reasons she loves living here is the silence. It gives her the space to write, read and think. The woods, the changing seasons and the landscape are part of her everyday life and often part of her inspiration. In different ways, we both need creativity, nature and solitude, which is probably why we understand very well that people can come here looking for very different things. We enjoy meeting people from other countries, cultures and backgrounds, and over the years we have naturally welcomed artists, students, travellers and friends. We like conversations, exchanging ideas and sharing something of our world when it happens spontaneously. But we also deeply respect the pleasure of being left alone. As hosts, we try to be available without being intrusive. We live on the property, so if you need practical help, advice about the area or simply feel like having a coffee and talking, we are nearby. At the same time, your accommodation is your own space and your privacy and independence are fully respected. If you are curious, you may discover the sculpture studio, try working with stone when possible, play one of the instruments, learn something about the plants growing around the property, cook with seasonal herbs, or simply share a meal or a conversation with us. None of this is expected. You can just as easily spend your time completely independently: working, writing, reading, walking, exploring Tuscany, going to the sea or the mountains, or simply enjoying the silence. Some people enjoy connecting. Others come precisely because they want space, nature and time to themselves. Both are equally welcome. Perhaps that is the simplest way to describe how we like to host: we are here when you need us, and we are equally happy to leave you to enjoy this little corner of Tuscany entirely in your own ***** gradually created this place around our lives, our work and the things we love: art, nature, music, plants, philosophy and a slower, more conscious way of living. My sculpture studio is here on the property, where I work mainly with marble and ceramics. Music is also an important part of my life: I play the piano, hang, guitar and trumpet, and several instruments are available on the property. My wife teaches philosophy and mindfulness and has a deep interest in the local landscape and its plants. She collects wild and medicinal herbs and enjoys using them in everyday life and cooking, following the rhythms of the seasons. We both enjoy meeting people from different countries, cultures and backgrounds, and over the years this place has naturally welcomed students, artists, friends and travellers. As hosts, however, we believe strongly in being available without being intrusive. We live on the property, so we are nearby if you need practical help, local advice or simply feel like having a conversation. At the same time, your accommodation is your own space and we fully respect your privacy and independence. If you are curious, you are welcome to discover the sculpture studio, try working with stone when possible, play music, learn something about the plants growing around us, share a meal or a conversation, or simply experience some of the creative life of the place. But none of this is expected. You may also choose to spend your time entirely on your own – working, reading, walking, exploring Tuscany or simply enjoying the silence and nature around you. Some guests enjoy connecting; others come precisely because they want space and solitude. Both are equally welcome. What matters to us is that, while you are here, you can feel at home and free to experience this place in your own way.

Every time you rent through Flatio, you're automatically covered by our StayProtection package.
By booking this property, you'll also enjoy extended protection in the form of Stay Benefits - a unique offering backed by AXA! Here's what such packaging includes:
Once you send a booking request, the host is notified that you are interested in their listing. From that moment, they have 24 hours to approve or reject your booking.
Hosts are mainly interested in the profile of their guest. Do not forget to fill in all necessary information, add your profile picture, or even make a short video about yourself. Doing that will make you more attractive for the owner and your booking will more likely get approved.
You can take a look at the contract in advance and online with every listing. After you sign it, you will find it in the application My Housing.
While arranging a contract on Flatio, you do not have to worry that it could be disadvantageous for you. Our contracts are made so that we avoid all problems! All of them are the same, used by all the hosts on Flatio.
Your time is precious. That's why we've added a virtual tour option to our platform so you can see some of the rentals listed on Flatio from the comfort of your own home.
If a virtual tour isn't available for the accommodation you've chosen, you can contact the host and ask them if they're willing to give you a personal tour of the rental unit.
In the event that you move in and the rented accommodation doesn't match the information on Flatio, let us know as soon as possible!
If the conditions for the withdrawal are met and the host can't fix the issue immediately, you have the option to withdraw from the lease agreement with a full refund. We'll also actively help you find an alternative accommodation and remain by your side until everything is fully resolved.
You can read the conditions and all details about our Move-in Guarantee in this article of our Help Center.
How you can cancel a booking varies depending on what stage the booking is in.
Is your booking request still waiting for host approval? Then you can simply cancel it directly from your My Housing web app!
However, suppose the owner has already approved your booking request, and you are no longer interested in it. In that case, you can still cancel the booking before you sign the lease agreement. Just consider that you should do this only in essential cases. Because when the host accepts your booking, the property is stopped being advertised, and they can lose the chance to rent their property to someone else.
Do you have an approved booking and also a valid agreement? In order to cancel your booking, contact Flatio customer support well in advance of your contract beginning (the specific time and amount of refund depends on the type of cancelation policy).
