The pool surround is furnished with the sun worshipper in mind, offering a choice of sun beds and deck chairs. There is a wisteria-covered pergola, which gives shade from the heat of the summer and where you can take poolside meals cooked on the pool barbecue. In both early and late summer months the pool heater maintains the pool temperature at your own setting. This classic 5m x 10m pool is totally engaging and blends into its harmonious surroundings.

A short walk from the house there is a covered car parking area for three cars, where you will also find two mountain bikes available for use during your stay at Villa Al Bastini.

The terracotta tiled pool area is strategically placed at a close, level walk from the house, near enough for convenience yet secluded enough to allow the guests privacy and quiet. The pool receives the sun from early morning to late evening and commands open views across olive groves and cypress trees towards Lucca and Pisa beyond. With child safety in mind, the pool is enclosed by low local redbrick walls with access through a wrought- iron gate.

"A slice of heaven" is how one Al Bastini guest described this setting. There is a large old brick- built barbecue alongside a herb garden to add flavour to your dishes. A large cast-iron table with local stone top provides yet another area for those cool evening soirées in true Tuscan style.
Throughout the gardens and pool area, there is suggestive lighting highlighting the wonderfully variegated greens of the olive trees.
