This is an inspiringly beautiful and most special place with unique and incredible views.

La Lucertola is perfectly located to make the most of the many glories of Tuscany and beyond. Pisa, is only a 20 minute drive away, as is Lucca, with her all-embracing city walls and immaculate medieval centre with exquisite boutique shops. Florence is just an hour away, the coast less than 30 minutes and the spectacular Cinque Terre can be reached in just over an hour. This unique location offers two wonderful, independent and beautifully decorated houses, both of which are on two floors and each are very spacious. They can be rented together or individually.

This house offers a large and fully-equipped kitchen with marble worktops, a hand-made dining table with six chairs for indoor dining when required. For the colder months there is central heating and a fully functioning kitchen fireplace - very cosy! The lounge is next to the kitchen and is very spacious and comfortable. It has two wonderful, top-of-the-range, luxury sofabeds, (a double and a single) as well as a SmartTV, DVD player, books and a large box of toys for younger guests. Free Wi-Fi works both throughout the house and outside areas.

Upstairs both bedrooms have balconies offering fabulous and uninterrupted panoramic views. They are both very spacious and have been beautifully decorated with hand-painted murals of plants and birds that reflect the beauty and tranquillity of the outside space. There are two bathrooms, one of which is ensuite to the main bedroom. The main bathroom has a bath and both bathrooms have showers.

There is a large terrace outside the house with sun loungers, a shade pergola, with hand made wooden table and six chairs ideal for relaxing, sunbathing, dining and generally contemplating the infinite. There is a barbeque area and an original wood fired oven, perfect for making pizzas and much more - fantastic fun for everyone and of all ages and cooking abilities!

The beautiful shared salt-water swimming pool is in a secure fenced off garden area with unique olive tree shower, two dedicated sun-bathing and relaxing areas, above and below the pool, sun loungers, shade pergolas, tables and chairs. This truly special and unique place really does refresh the body, mind and soul!

Great Location and VIEW!
PROS- great location, wonderful views of valley and Pisa; definitely rustic Italian; comfortable beds and pillows; excellent appliances; great outdoor eating area and pool area; great spot to do day trips all around Lucca, coast and Florence; lovely greenery all around the property; our host did us a solid by doing a light grocery shop for us as we had been travelling for 22 hours straight! sweet little veggie garden you are allowed to share in and the town of Lucca is fabulous! CONS- the drive to the property can be a challenge - smaller car ok; NO AC for those killer summer heat ways- could definitely use a few more large fans; wishing the pool was better maintained during our stay; could use access to pool towels- none provided; wished the main front hedges were trimmed lower so you could have a view while eating outside. I miss Lucca and that view!

Wonderful adventure in Italy
I have stayed in Italy many times, but this was clearly my favorite experience. The accommodations are perfect and stocked with all the essentials. The owners were lovely on our first night when provided a wonderful meal as my wife had fallen earlier and broke her wrist and leg. We were tired and sad. They cheered us all up. I would definitely stay there again and recommend it to my friends. Make sure you take their recommendation on a 4 wheel vehicle. The hull is quite steep but worth the trip the view… amazing

This is an exceptionally wonderful property!
This is an exceptional property and we had the most fabulous holiday! The house is spacious, cool and airy and has the most wonderful views over the plain to Pisa and to the Mediterranean beyond - we even saw Corsica! I will never forget the hours spent looking out over the views from the terrace in front of the house and from the pool which is just fantastic! Thank you to Luisa and Colin - great hosts - on hand but never invasive - we will be back!

Beautiful Location
We had a very relaxing stay. Accommodations were excellent and our hosts were very welcoming and attentive to every need. We took part in the chef cooked dinner which was amazing along with the beautiful county-side view. Would highly recommend staying at this location. Don't let the road into the farm house scare you...once you've done it once, its a breeze. Hope to come back to Pisa soon.

Fantastic view
We were 4 people i House 1- and we all loved the house, the amazing views and the lovely pool. The place is quiet and relaxing and still close to Pisa and Lucca. We enjoyed the "Chefs at home" -like being in a restaurant -but at home:) We loved that we were allowed to use the vegetables and fruit from Luisa and Colins garden. We would like to go back another time and recommend this lovely place :)

Wonderful villa in beautiful countryside, fabulous hosts too!
We have just returned from a wonderful trip to Tuscany staying at this property. The views are stunning across the Tuscan valley looking over to Pisa and even include a view of the tower! Luisa and Colin are the perfect hosts, very welcoming and on hand if you need any advice on the area. The property is clean and well equipped with a good wifi connection and everything you need to enjoy your stay. A BBQ and pizza oven are at your disposal, we need more practice with the pizza's though! I would not hesitate to recommend this property for peace and quiet, amazing views and plenty of places to visit within easy reach by car or train. If hiring a car we would recommend a 4 wheel drive, but the views when you get up to the property are spectacular and well worth the drive! Thank you Luisa and Colin for a lovely stay.

Fantastiskt boende i en skogssluttning
Vi är jättenöjda med detta boende. Fint och fräscht invändigt. Tjocka väggar som klarade att hålla värmen ute förvånansvärt bra. Utsikten och omgivningen var också helt otrolig. Helt omgiven av grönska. Kändes som man bodde mitt i skogen med utsikt över skogen och byarna närmast samt Pisa i bakgrunden. Vi kom när det var mörkt så bilkörningen var spännande med serpentinvägar sista biten, man vande sig dock ganska snabbt om man är en hyfsat van bilförare. Fint poolområde. Trevlig värdfamilj!
