Private Pool, 4 poster, US style fridge, ping pong, electric car charging point

Casa Sarita is a peaceful well equipped 2 bedroom property sleeping 5, with a large private pool boasting amazing mountain views.

Set in extensive mature gardens of 10 acres, with olive terraces, fruit trees and vines, this is the perfect place for a relaxing break.

A flexible property with the second bedroom being able to be set up to provide a double and cabin bed, or 3 singles, with the main bedroom having a romantic four poster and the bathroom having a bath as well as a rain shower over.

Traditional style property with fridge/freezer, WIFI, SKY TV with Sky Cinema, ping pong and even an AC electric car charging facility! (at E10 per charge)

Fuller details -all situated on one floor:
Enter property into living/diner, with fireplace, large corner sofa with lots of comfy seating, and ample dining table. The SAT TV has Sky Cinema, and there is also Wifi. Upon arrival, you will find a warm welcome with the red wine on the table and cold white wine in the refrigerator!
The kitchen is well equipped with oven, hob, fridge/freezer, and dishwasher. This property used to be a family home and so is better equipped than the average holiday rental property.
There are two bedrooms, one of which is a double, and the other can be either made up as bunk beds or a double with an extra bed - so ideal for couples or children. Please specify preference on booking.
The spacious bathroom has a bath tub with a rain shower over bath, toilet and sink.
Outside:
Exit property to private covered eating area for shaded dining al fresco, extensive terraced grounds, and private pool, which is 5M x 10M plus roman steps, with depth ranging from 1.2M to 1.5M. There are plenty of sun loungers to enjoy the stunning view...
Also outside, and in a covered area is ping pong, which is located beside the laundry, which has both a washer and dryer. You can also charge your electric car on the AC electric car charging point. Do note this is AC not DC, it works the same but takes longer. (E10 per charge) as there is a large KW current and a heavy duty electric point outside the house.
We offer, horseback riding, paint balling, quad biking, adventure playgrounds in the forests close by as well as fantastic walking paths, this house is for the lovers of the outdoor life!

NB
• The owners live in the apartment downstairs, but they have their own private driveway, entrance and outdoor areas and fully respect the privacy of guests who has exclusive use of gardens and pool (except when being tended). Indeed, since the house is built into a slope it feels as though this is in fact a detached house all to yourselves, since one cannot even see owner's accommodation. The only shared facility is the laundry which the owners only use at night since they work all day. The owners speak fluent English so can help with anything you may need, but still be unobtrusive and ensure you are not disturbed!
There are two resident cats (not permitted in house) and there is also a horse paddock above the grounds (approx 300m from house and 70m from pool), with 2 beautiful friendly horses
• Some of the land is terraced so may not be suitable for toddlers/very small children
• Short breaks available outside of July and August at €170 per night.
• Changeover days are flexible outside of July and August.

A little about location:

This property is located in a very peaceful and picturesque spot comprising 10 acres of land, with beautiful mountain views, just 1km from the local village which has a basic shop for essentials.
There are 2 good restaurants 5km either side of the property and lots more beyond.
Situated just 40 mins from the mediaeval walled city Lucca this is an ideal rural location for walking and communing with nature, but good also for exploring with the car.
At Lucca, one can hire bicycles and hire around the still intact City walls, meander through the cobbled streets, visit beautiful churches, climb towers, and shop til you drop, stopping off of course at wonderful restaurants and gelaterias... One can also listen to Puccini performances every night of the year, in one of the local churches ...
Also, close to home at a 20 min drive, is the Spa town of Bagni di Lucca, with it's thermal waters and beauty treatments . There are also banks, supermarkets and several restaurants. The mediaeval town of Barga renowned for its jazz is 25 mins away, the Orrido di Botri (Italy's largest natural Gorge) is 30 mins, and Grotto del Vento, fantastic natural caves 45 mins away .
Further afield, the closest beach is a 1 hr drive, Pisa is 1 hr 20 mins, and Florence 1 hr 45 mins.
For winter stays Skiing at Abetone is just a 45 minute drive.

TOURIST TAX - Do note that there is a local stay tax applicable at €1 per person per night, up to a maximum of 5 nights. This does not apply to children under 14.

Perfect family getaway
We have just returned from an absolutely fantastic week here! The location and surroundings more than live up to the description, the views are stunning. The pool was a major highlight for our boys, as was meeting the horses, and Sarita & Mauro were perfect hosts, always contactable for questions on anything. Nature is all around and there are also plenty of nice towns to visit by car not too far away. We’re already talking about if we can come back next year!

Fabelhaft
Wir durften 2 Wochen in diesem wundervollen Haus verbringen. Die Begrüßung war sehr herzlich und wir haben uns direkt willkommen gefühlt.das Haus/Wohnung ist sehr groß, es fehlte an nichts. Begrüßt wurden wir mit Wein, Nudeln und ganz viel mehr, das war ganz zauberhaft. Der Pool ist riesig und der Garten wirklich sehr schön, eine Katze besuchte uns regelmäßig. Ich kann diesen tollen Ort jedem empfehlen, einfach nur schön ❤️

Ein sehr schöner, ruhiger Urlaub. Guter Startpunkt um Ausflüge nach Pisa, Viareggio und vor allem Lucca zu unternehmen. Der Pool und der Weitblick sind der Hammer. Wir haben uns sehr gut erholt.

Nice house with great pool!
We stayed here for two weeks and we have enjoyed every minute of it. The house is very clean and so is the large pool. The surrounding area is stunning. The friendly and helpful owners are living in the same building , but you hardly see or hear them. Dear Sarita and Mauro, we really enjoyed staying in your house, thank you for everything!

Beau séjour dans la campagne Toscane
Séjour très agréable dans cette maison bien équipée, disposant d'une très belle vue, notamment de la piscine. Les propriétaires, qui habitent en dessous de la maison, sont donc faciles à joindre tout en étant très discrets. Je recommande sans réserve pour une famille qui, comme la notre, cherchait un pied à terre de qualité permettant de se reposer entre chaque excursion.

Prachtige omgeving
Aardige eigenaars. Prachtig uitzicht, steile en af en toe smalle weg naar dorpje bij tegemoet komend verkeer. Schoonmaak had echt beter gekund. Matras 2 persoonsbed niet zo goed. Koelkast maakt erg veel lawaai als je binnen moet zitten, evenals vaatwasser.. Afzuigkap defect. Eigenaar reageerde erg laat bij wederom activeren electriciteits-storing: deze was veroorzaakt door storm. Prijs-Kwaliteit verhouding vond ik huur te hoog.

Wat een uitzicht, wat een kalmte. Heerlijk zwembad! Perfecte rust locatie voor uitstapjes naar andere dorpjes en steden. Als er 1 klein minpuntje was, het wifi signaal was heel zwak waardoor info zoeken voor uitstapjes wat moeilijk gingen.

Amazing location !
Big and confortable house, clean with everything you may need. Stunning views all around ! The pool is fantasic, kept very clean and also with beautiful views of the surroundings. I feel in love with the sight from the windows of the kitchen. Very quiet and calm environment. Temperature going down in the evening allowing to sleep perfectly without need of air conditioning. The owner were not intrusive but very kind and supportive. They even let my daughter ride their horse twice! We also had the luck to see the RALLY from indie the property. If I have to find a small inconvenient , the wi-fi was a bit slow, but does not affect the 5 star rating of this place!

Sehr empfehlenswert
Die Anfahrt ist mit Navi gar nicht so schwierig, zieht sich von Lucca aus aber ganz schön hin. Tipp: die komplette Strecke kann man vorab schonmal per Google Streetview abfahren. (z.B. ab Ghivizzano, wenn es rechts ab in Richtung Lucignana geht. - Oder natürlich schon früher). Das Anwesen selbst ist leicht zu finden. Man hat eine eigene Einfahrt mit PKW-Stellplatz direkt vor dem Hauseingang. Das gesamte Gründstück ist riesig, und auch wenn die Vermieter "unten" wohnen, darf und sollte man sich überall umsehen. Das Highlight ist natürlich der etwas oberhalb vom Haus gelegene Pool. Aber auch das Haus selbst ist perfekt ausgestattet. Die Zimmer sind groß, liebevoll eingerichtet und auch bei fast 40 Grad Außentemperatur angenehm kühl. Die Vermieter sind sehr hilfsbereit, immer freundlich, dabei aber überhaupt nicht aufdringlich. Wer absolute Ruhe und Einsamkeit möchte, kann das hier also auch bekommen. Man sollte jedoch Englisch (oder Italienisch) sprechen können. Wir haben im Sommer 2020 elf Nächte hier verbracht und hatten einen tollen Urlaub.

Ruhig gelegene FeWo/Teilhaus mit sehr netter Vermieterin als "unsichtbare" Nachbarin
Das Haus liegt sehr ruhig oberhalb des kleinen Ortes Lucignana, ca. 25 Autominuten nordöstlich von Lucca. Die erste Anfahrt ist etwas kompliziert, da man sich zunächst nicht vorstellen kann, dass nach dem Örtchen Lucignana - schon schwer genug zu finden und ohne aktuelles Navi im Halbdunkel quasi unmöglich - noch etwas kommt. Hat man das Haus aber erst einmal gefunden und die Anfahrt gemeistert, ist man von Blick, Lage und Ruhe überwältigt. Die geräumige Wohnung entspricht in dem Ausstattungsstil nicht jedermanns Geschmack, verfügt aber über befriedigendes WLAN, Sky-Fernseher, voll ausgestattete Küche mit Icemaker und gemeinsam mit den mit auf dem Grundstück lebenden Eigentümern (ein sehr nettes Ehepaar aus Liverpool) zu nutzende Waschmaschine und Trockner. Die Einkaufsmöglichkeiten sind etwas eingeschränkt (Autofahrt zum nächsten echten Supermarkt ca. 20 Minuten (und den zuvor erklommenen Berg wieder runter....)) aber dort findet man alle Dinge des täglichen Durchschnittsbedarfs. Entfernungen nach Viareggio, Lucca,Pisa,Florenz für Tagesausflüge o.k., auch wenn bei 35-40 Grad Celsius im Hochsommer nicht immer ein reinstes Vergnügen. Alles wird aber von dem auf dem Grundstück liegenden großen Swimmingpool mit vier bequemen, typisch italienischen Liegen überstrahlt, die wir zur alleinigen Benutzung hatten und unsere Kinder begeistert haben. Die Eigentümer reinigen den Pool alle 2 Tage gründlich und es ist eine unbeschreibliche Wohltat, dort oben mit Blick über eine wunderschöne toskanische Landschaft zu plantschen.
