   The beautiful peaceful hamlet of Peralta has a spectacular setting in the Tuscan hills that rise high above the valley of Camaiore.   It was restored with great love and imagination by international sculptor Fiore de Henriquez. She created a place that is quite unique.   Peralta was her home up to her death in June 2004, and one can see her work all through the hamlet. Her sculpture everywhere, and the manner in which she restored and designed the hamlet give it very special atmosphere and character.  With stunning, panoramic views over the valley to the hills and sea beyond and surrounded by terraces of olive groves, its stone walls covered with purple bougainvilleas, lemon trees, jasmine, Peralta seems like  paradise., a place for people seeking tranquility and beauty.  There is a swimming pool on an upper terrace with a panoramic view towards the sea.  The large terrace in front of Peralta  is a lovely place to sit with a glass of wine, enjoy the sunsets and meet other guests. 

  Lovely walking country with marked trails through the olive groves and hills dense with chestnut trees and known for their wild flowers in spring and autumn.  Orchids in April!  Walks range from 50 minutes to a delightful restaurant in an adjoining village, to three hours up to the peak of the Mount Prana above Peralta.  We know a local, English speaking guide who will take guests hiking, for a whole day or a few hours. 

  Although secluded, the motorway is only 25 mins away so sightseeing is easy.  Shopping in Florence/Lucca/Forte dei Marmi is legendary!  Porto Venere & the Cinque Terre are 1 hour away.  The sculptor's town of Pietrasanta takes 20 minutes and has many cafes and restaurants - a wonderful place to spend an evening (or two!).  Beaches are 30 mins or more away. The closest shops (grocer and greengrocer) are just minutes down the hill  where there is also a bar/pizza restaurant. The market town of Camaiore takes 10 minutes by car.

Our airport is Pisa, 45 minutes from Peralta.
