Region: Tuscany

We are an English family (Charlie and Clare and our 12 year old daughter Amy and our dog benjy) who moved to Northern Tuscany 5 years ago. Since then we have been renovating our Liberty Villa in the heart of beautiful Bagni di Lucca a spa town 20 minutes from Lucca. Our villa is within easy reach of skiing in winter and beaches in the summer we have a small pool to soak away a hard days work or the Lido, spa, bars and restaurants are all walking distance. Our villa backs onto a lovely river (which is also gr8 for a dip). It's a good base to explore the rest of Tuscany from as buses are regular and the train service very simple and resonably priced.

Hi! Our "family" is made up of Franco and me (Martina), plus our friend Pippo who is always cooking fantastic typical italian food for us (and for you)! We have a lively bed&breakfast in the countryside (700 m above sea level) in a beautiful, wild place in the Province of Genoa. We are at the foot of the highest peaks of ligurian appennines (Parco Naturale dell'Aveto) and still very close to the seaside (about 1/2 hour to reach Chiavari; Portofino, Genoa and Cinque Terre take about an hour to go).

My partner and I run a small 42ha farm near Coffs Harbour on the beautiful North coast of NSW. We grow a variety of vegetables, fruit and Macadamia nuts. Our farm was very run down and we are in the process of restoring it along with renovating the house (almost finished) and gardens. We are not registered as organic however we use bio-diverse and eco-friendly systems to grow our produce.
