How to get there
The house is in a very convenient location for connections: a few miles from it is the freeway (called Fi-Pi-Li) which connects the coast with the major art cities of Tuscany. We are about 60km away from Florence.
The main airports are Pisa (27 km) and Florence; While you can easily take the train (Pontedera station 10 km or Pisa 30 km) to reach Florence, Siena, Cinque Terre and other important places without having to worry about traffic and parking.
At home there are also bicycles for walks in nearby villages enjoying the panorama

Getting around
To travel to the main cities of Tuscany, I recommend your car as well as public transport. To reach Florence, for example, I recommend the train, leaving your car in the free parking at Pontedera Station (10km from the house) and get off at Santa Maria Novella Station in Florence, without having to worry about traffic jam or parking. Also to reach Siena or Pisa you can use the train comfortably from Pontedera station For other cities like Lucca, Arezzo, Pistoia (Pinocchio Park for Kids) or seaside resorts, or to move for sightseeing around the Villa, I would recommend the car instead. To reach the Parco delle Cinque Terre, I recommend the train, passing Pisa towards Genoa, because in the summer it is a very busy area difficult to park.
