DEVELOPMENTS IN ITALY
San Rocco - Lunigiana, Tuscany
Hidden away from the tourist
trail is Tuscany's best kept secret: Lunigiana, a land
of great natural beauty, renaissance splendour, exaggerated
colours and smells and a culture to embrace with admiration
that has not faded with the passing of time. With medieval
villages, ancient castles, breathtaking views across
fertile river valleys and ancient terraced hillscapes
to dramatic mountain vistas Lunigiana, enjoys easy access
to the main cultural centres of Northern Italy and the
sophisticated coastal villages of the Ligurian coast.
The stunning Cinque Terre coastline is less than an
hours drive from most of the Lunigiana valleys and budget
airlines offer flights to Pisa or Genoa airports, which
are both less than an hour away from the most popular
towns and villages.

Nonetheless,
Lunigiana is free from mass tourism and is relatively
unexplored and unexploited by foreign property owners
or investors. The hills give way to splendid views of
the Appennine mountains and the dramatic marble peaks
of the Apuane Alps. It is a wonderfully diverse land
of hills, plateau's, mountains, rivers and streams,
quite a contrast from the cultivated rolling hills and
cypress trees of the Chianti, yet it is full of real
Tuscan culture and cuisine.
The
area enjoys a Mediterranean climate, with long, hot
summers and relatively mild winters. The sun begins
to put his hat on from late April and one can expect
Italian summer sunshine until early October. The area
maintains its greenery throughout this thanks to the
occasional rain that is a feature of the Italian climate.
