Enjoy an unforgettable holiday in Tuscany near Lucca in our holiday home "Il sole da Anja". This charming holiday home, a former monk's monastery from the 1750s recently renovated, partly as a guest house and partly as a home, offers space for up to 5 guests and up to 3 dogs on 110 square metres of living space. It has 3 bedrooms and two bathrooms, equipped with all the comforts you need for a relaxing stay.
The house is furnished with high-quality, partly antique, stylish furniture and a warm, inviting interior design.
On the ground floor is the spacious living room with comfortable, stylish seating, a 40° LED TV and a pellet stove, which creates a cosy atmosphere on chilly evenings. From here you can access the large, modern, fully equipped kitchen with cooker, microwave, dishwasher, kettle and coffee machine. At the historic dining table, you can marvel at the lightness of the open modern architecture and the fortified architecture of the old walls with their original stone arches. Before the modern parquet staircase that leads to the 1st floor, you come to the bright modern bathroom with window, shower, WC, hairdryer, towels and washbasin. On the 1st floor you will find a large comfortable bedroom with views of olive groves and the Apennines, the "back of Italy". It continues onto the gallery framed by a plexiglass balustrade. Here you will find a historic 90 x 200 single bed, an antique desk and an original old gramophone cabinet filled with various card and board games. Another parquet staircase leads to the upper floor with the 2nd bedroom. There is also a cosy sitting area here. The bedrooms are bright, flooded with plenty of natural light through the panoramic windows, 32° LED TV and each equipped with a 160 x 200 double bed and high-quality bed linen.
Outside, a terrace shaded by bamboo and a parasol awaits you in front of the house entrance, where you can enjoy your barbecued meals at the beautiful mosaic table. There is another seating area in the outdoor veranda, as well as a table tennis table, table football, disc golf and a dartboard. They will keep you entertained for a long time. Here you will also find the 2nd bathroom with washing machine, clothes horse, iron and ironing board. The garden directly in front of the house is about 180 square metres and is fenced in. On the lawn with a large parasol and the sun loungers and seating furniture you can admire the breathtaking view of the olive groves and the plain of the "Lago di Bientina" under the Tuscan sun with lots of birdsong. Refresh yourself in the oval 3x5m pool. In the herb bed you will find almost all the spices used in Tuscan cuisine. On a higher panoramic terrace, you can enjoy the gigantic view while bubbling in the whirlpool. 2 x 10 metre bowling alley and the shady lime forest, where you can enjoy a game of disc golf, are located below the garden. This larger garden area of about 3000 square metres is electrically fenced and there is a shaded car park for your car.
For our youngest guests we are happy to provide a cot and a high chair. For dogs there is a small pool for refreshment and the house has WLAN, so that you can always stay connected to the outside world during your stay. A satellite aerial enables international TV reception.
Our holiday home Il sole da Anja is a non-smoking house. However, there are ashtrays in the outdoor area. We look forward to welcoming you to our little paradise in Tuscany.

Location and surroundings of object
Our former monastery from the 1750s, partly converted into a guest house and partly into a residence, is situated on the Colline Pisane in the picturesque region of Tuscany, inland from the plain of the beautiful city of Lucca. Our Frazione Pieve di Compito is a district of Capannori, the largest municipality in Italy with 46 frazione (districts)
From the house and garden, nestled in olive groves, you can enjoy the panoramic view of the Apennines with its hills and the Pianora of what was once the largest drained lake in Tuscany, "Lago di Bientina". It is only 10 kilometres to the wall that surrounds the historic old town of Lucca. 25km to the leaning tower in Pisa, 50 minutes to the beautiful sandy beaches of Versilia, in about 60 minutes you are in the heart of Tuscany such as Florence, San Gimignano or Volterra. Enjoy a trip to the evergreen Garfagnana with its swallows' nests and small, ancient mountain villages. Or take a detour to the Alpi Apuane with their famous Carrara marble quarries. With your dogs you can find refreshment nearby in the river Visona, which runs through our villages, or you can relax on the nearby beaches of Torre del Lago, which are also open to our pets. From the house, well-maintained walking and mountain bike trails lead you through forests and olive groves, which always offer vantage points with fascinating views.
You can reach us via Pisa Airport, 50 minutes away, or via the A11 motorway, exit Capannori or Lucca Est, coming from Florence or Viareggio. Then take the SR439 towards Pontedera or, coming from Lucca, first take the SP26 also towards Pontedera. In San Leonardo in Treponzio, the SP meets the SR. Then it is only about 4km to the holiday home. Once you have passed the sign for Pieve di Compito, turn right after approx. 150m onto the smaller tarmac road. After a further 500 metres uphill you have reached your destination.
We have shopping facilities very close by, in 3 minutes you can buy fresh baked goods from the bakery, selected sausages, meat, fruit and vegetables from local producers and of course the best cold-pressed olive oil from our area in the shop of the cooperatively organised oil mill (Frantoio sociale). In San Leonardo in Treponzio, 5 minutes away by car, you will find a well-stocked supermarket with a fresh fish counter and also open on Sundays; if necessary, you will also find an English-speaking pharmacy here, which is open daily from 8 am to 8 pm and on Sundays from 9 am to 1 pm.
There are also various localities on site, such as restaurants and pizzerias.

Mrs. A. Kayser

We have been living and working here for 30 years as self-caterers in and with nature. Our guest house, part of a former monastery from the 1750s, has been restored with great attention to detail. You won't be able to resist the positive aura of the old historic walls. Here you will find peace, relaxation and inspiration after decades of our life experiences. Once you've arrived here, you won't want to go out into the countryside. Even though it's not far away.2 minutes to the organic shop run by the members of the oil farmers' cooperative.5 minutes to the nearest supermarket in the neighbouring village. 15 minutes to Lucca, an intact and peaceful historic town, 50 minutes to the beautiful sandy beaches of Versilia, the mountains and marble quarries of the Alpi Apuane or simply to the evergreen hills of the Alpi Alpi. Children and dogs are welcome. There is plenty of space to play.
