Self-catering holiday homes: Camaiore

Make a holiday rental apartment or accommodation in Camaiore, Italy your home away from home

Camaiore is a stunning mediaeval town at the foot of the Apuan Alps in Tuscany, 24km from Lucca. Although it is with a short distance of the glorious golden beaches of the Tuscan coastline, Camaiore is separated from the sea by a chain of hills, which mean that Camaiore has a wonderfully enclosed feel to it. However, if you feel like spending a lazy day on the beach from your Camaiore accommodation, the beaches are reachable in just 10 minutes by bus.

Things to do on holiday in Camaiore, Italy

The hills surrounding Camaiore are filled with little towns and valuable historical monuments which just beg to be explored.
