Italy > Tuscany > Pistoia Area > San Marcello Pistoiese
The village of San Marcello Pistoiese is 650 metres above sea level and a five minute drive from the farmhouse (20 min walk), 25 minutes drive from Pistoia, 45 to Lucca and 50 minutes to Florence. This makes it easy to enjoy leisurely day trips to the artistic centres of Italy.
Il Gufo is an 1.5 hours drive from Pisa airport, which has extensive budget airline connections to the UK and car hire. We are also 1 hour drive from Florence airport and 1h45 from Bologna airport. However, the efficiency of public transport also makes it possible to visit without a car; there are excellent train links from Pisa airport, Florence, Lucca to Pistoia and from Bologna to Pracchia. Regular buses from Pistoia and Pracchia come to San Marcello. The farmhouse is a 20 minute walk from the centre of the village.
The farmhouse is deep in the mountains in the relatively 'undiscovered' north of Tuscany. While still within easy reach of Florence, Bologna, Lucca and Pisa, the villa is perfectly located for wonderful mountain walks, horse riding and skiing in winter. There are historical villages to visit and also great local amenities. Choose which of the distinct seasons to visit in- here we have heavy spring blossom, hot summers, smokey autumns and winter skiing.

There are some excellent restaurants in the local area. The most famous is said to have invented the sumptuous 'tagliata'- a fat and juicy cut of beef cooked in a special way. You can also try the restaurant with 7 taster pasta dishes, or another with inventive twists on traditional Italian cooking. Local specialities include Porcini mushrooms & wild boar- and don't foget bread, oil and wine!
Local villages are lively throughout the summer, with many Italians coming to escape the suffocating heat of Florence and surroundings. There are traditional village parties on most weekends- come and celebrate tortellini pasta, or admire local street art festivities! San Marcello itself celebrates its Santa Celestina in early September, sending balloons up into the sky from the lively main square. |
