Abitazione su tre livelli a Serravalle Pistoiese Via Egidio Pollacci, 6, 51034 Cantagrillo PT, Italia

The cluster sits on the Monte Albano and Valdinievole side of central Tuscany, with low hills, olive groves and a chain of historic hill settlements rather than a single dominant natural feature. Montalbano lies within the area and gives the immediate landscape its ridges and wooded slopes. Montecatini Terme is the nearest town of size, with thermal establishments, rail connections and services. Pistoia is also close enough to matter for daily life, with a substantial historic centre and wider services. Vinci, associated with Leonardo, is nearby on the same hill system. This part of Tuscany is known for olive oil, mixed farming and spa towns.
