La Casatorre di Ponticello. Casale di campagna con ampio giardino e piscina

La Casatorre di Ponticello è un’incantevole dimora in pietra situata ai margini del Borgo di Ponticello, uno dei più antichi borghi medioevali della Lunigiana in Toscana.

La casa è suddivisa in quattro appartamenti indipendenti. Può ospitare 16 persone su letti e 6 su divano letto, per un totale di 22 persone.

L'ampio giardino dispone di una piscina privata da dove si gode una magnifica vista sulle verdi colline di boschi di castagni e sui monti dell’Appennino Tosco - emiliano, in una Toscana incontaminata e ancora da scoprire.

Ideale per una vacanza in pieno relax, la proprietà è facile da raggiungere e non è distante da negozi e ristoranti. A pochi chilometri si possono visitare interessanti luoghi d'arte e di cultura, città d’arte, o raggiungere la costa toscana e le Cinque terre.

La Casatorre di Ponticello è anche un'ideale punto di partenza per escursioni, trekking a piedi o a cavallo e gite in mountain bike.

A house divided into 4 flats. Lovely views of the tuscan hills. Great for local walks, car vital.
Really helpful caretaker sharing her local knowledge. Staying here after a week in Sardinia meant the lack of air con wasn't a problem, there are fans in each room.

Peacefull and relaxing holiday
Apartment was quite small for 6 people. Kitchen and living room were very small and apartment had only 1 bathroom. Apartment had no terrace. Location was peacefull with very beautifull view. Garden was big and beautifull and pool was clean and nice. People working in property were friendly. When staying here you need a car, cause there were no restaurants or crocery stores by walking distance.

Charming and historical
We felt like we had stepped back in time. The town and home were authentic and historical. We enjoyed the tranquility of the surroundings and the pool and yard were fabulous. Great stay!

Wonderful setting
We really enjoyed our 2 week stay at this property. The grounds are kept very tidy and the rooms were clean upon arrival. I had heard bad stories about spiders and what not from others that had stayed at historic properties in Tuscany, but I'm happy to report that was not an issue for us. The lounge chairs around the pool were fantastic. The location is wonderful. I would recommend this place to any of my friends.

Fantastic stay
We absolutely loved this rental. It is even nicer than the pictures look. There is a fabulous little medieval town 200 meters away, which the Francigena trail passes right through (highly recommend exploring both of these!) The locals are great. There is little book of recommendations for you that includes fabulous restaurants in the nearby villages. We loved each one we tried. They treat you like family in these restaurants. Loved everything about this area and this little house. Clean, friendly and everything you need (including a strong shower with plenty of hot water!) It is a wonderful break from the heavy tourist areas, with authentic Italian charm.

Most wonderful stay, amazing stone house with a great pool
We had one of our best stays as a family of 6 at La Casatorre, it’s a great and wonderful place. The house is as described in other reviews, really even nicer as the pics, the kitchen is bigger than it seems, provided everything we needed and we used it a lot. The pool is well sized and a true joy, we spent a lot of time in there. The area around the pool is huge and the whole place is really clean and well cared for. If you are a lover of nature you can sit outside early in the mornings, enjoy the mountain view and just listen and smell. We‘ve been there end of May, wich was not too hot but comfy, even when we had a little rain. Booking and communication with Maria was really easy, talking to Laura and Ivalda, the housekeepers, was a joy and always nice and easy, too. They are great. It’s always good to learn a bit of the language wherever you go, especially for this region as it is not heavy touristic but more authentic. A car is almost a must as all the foodshops and supermarkets are about a 7 to 10mins drive away. We highly recommend a trip to Bagnone, a lovely little medieval town. Our famous trip was driving to Portovenere to see the sunset, and the town of course. We totally enjoyed our stay, it was our first trip to Italy and definitely not our last. This place is a real oasis and we feel like just going back there immediately :-)

Fantastische vakantiewoning met een fijn zwembad
De vakantiewoning was schoon en sfeervol. Het bad- en bedlinnen was goed geregeld. Met zes personen was er voldoende woon- en slaapruimte. Hoogtepunt voor ons was het zwembad en de vele ruimte hieromheen. Alle mogelijkheden om te spetteren en te spelen. Er was meer dan genoeg tuinmeubilair en er waren verschillende sfeervolle hoekjes, in de zon of in de schaduw, om te gaan zitten. De ontvangst was bijzonder gastvrij en er werd allerlei informatie over de omgeving gegeven. Er zijn veel toeristische highlights in de buurt: Pisa, Florence, Luca, Cinque terre... Tijdens onze vakantie was het erg warm en moesten we ons programma daar een beetje op aanpassen, maar het lijkt ons geweldig om nog eens naar deze stek terug te keren en dan actief te zijn in de mooie omgeving.

Sehr entspannte, ruhige Woche!
Die Wohnung war in einer sehr ruhigen Lage, perfekt zum entspannen und doch nicht weit vom Meer oder zum wandern. Die Anlage ist sehr gepflegt, die Wohnungen gut ausgestatt und sauber. Schlüsselübergabe und Absprachen haben sehr gut geklappt, Laura steht immer mit Rat und Tat zur Verfügung. Alles unkompliziert, wunderschön und sehr empfehlenswert. Wir werden auf jeden Fall nochmal hin!

Calme Espace et accueil au top
L'annonce est très fidèle à la réalité. Chaque appartement est bien isolé des autres. Très bon équipement. Parc et piscine très agréables. Accès au Cinq Terres en 30 minutes (prendre le train à la gare de la Spezzia). Tout proche des Alpes Apuanes et des carrières de marbre de Carrare.

Nicely renovated farmhause in Tuscany
Great place to stay in a lesser known area of Tuscany. Unfortunately, we were there for only 2 nights (wished it could have been longer). The whole experience with the owner and her representitives was really first class. I would recommend this property to anyone especially if you are a large group with kids who still want their privacy. With 3/4 appartments a large group can have great fun in the pool and large garden but still have their own space.
