There are shops and a bar in the pretty village of Codiponte in the Lunigiana region of northern Tuscany. There are beautiful views to the Apuan mountains and cobbled lanes lead from the town to the river with rock pool for swimming. The larger village of Gragnola nearby has a wider selection of shops and a train station with direct trains to Lucca. The ancient spa town of Equi Terme with open air thermal water pool, river swimming and restaurants is a lovely place to spend the day. The property is set in a village within the municipality of Casola in Lunigiana which is a small town set on the hill above the Aulella river with the houses huddled around its central stone tower. The area is famous for stone statues which date back to the Neolithic age and are thought to be gifts to the moon goddess.

Lunigiana is a magical place to live and visit. While it remains a comparatively undiscovered and unspoilt part of Tuscany, it is neither isolated nor remote. The rolling landscape is liberally sprinkled with castles of Medici or Malaspina vintage and for lovers of the coast the sea is only half-an-hour away. The golden sandy beaches around Lerici and the pebble coves of the Cinque Terre (UNESCO World Heritage site) are ideal for swimming and sailing. The area is criss-crossed with marked footpaths for walks to the hills and mountains. The airports of Pisa, Parma and Genova are each just over an hour.

Distances: Gragnola 4 km, Equi Terme 10 km, Fivizzano 12 km, Aulla 18 km, Lerici (beaches) 40 km, Cinque Terre 45 km, Lucca 75 km, Pisa 95 km.
