A short trip to the Serchio for a quick dip — refreshing for guests on two legs and four.

Between sea and mountains
Each day you choose anew: coast or city, culture or nature, lively places or complete quiet.
Directly below lies Lake Massaciuccoli, one of Tuscany's most important wetlands. Beyond it begins a region of contrasts: Viareggio blends historic and modern beach culture with its famous carnival, while Lido di Camaiore, Marina di Pietrasanta and elegant Forte dei Marmi each have a character of their own. Carrara is where white marble has been quarried since antiquity, shaping art and architecture around the world. Lucca, Pisa and Cinque Terre are close; Florence and the Chianti Classico region make rewarding day trips at around 90 minutes. And when snow falls in Abetone, a day by the sea can be followed by a morning on the slopes. Casa Gina sits right in between — and every evening, you return to a place that feels as though it belongs only to you.

A short trip to the Serchio for a quick dip — refreshing for guests on two legs and four.

Walk the complete city walls, wander quiet lanes and stop for espresso on one of Tuscany’s loveliest piazzas.

Far more than the Leaning Tower: lively squares, Romanesque splendour and a stroll along the Arno.

Something for everyone: free beaches in the nature reserve — perfect with a dog and even offering a naturist section — lively beach clubs, or classic and exclusive seaside bagni. This broad sandy coast has it all.

Harbour air, the chequered Terrazza Mascagni and cacciucco in a city with an appealingly unpolished charm.

Colourful villages between vineyards and sea, best discovered by train or boat.

Cypresses, rolling vineyards and intimate wineries: the Gallo Nero guides you through the historic heart of Chianti Classico.

Renaissance, markets and extraordinary art — close enough for a full day and far enough to savour the anticipation.
