"Paolo is the best of hosts. He loves his family Villa and loves to share the history of his family and this amazing Villa with you. He makes sure to provide for your needs and comfort. The location is a beautiful place with stunning views. It is close to do day trips to Barga, Lucca, Pisa and Florence. We enjoyed our stay so much!"

"This is an excellent holiday property. You climb up to it via hairpin bends so take your time and just let the locals pass you in thier Fiat Pandas. The house is a few hunded metres out of village and such a tranquil spot. I almost dont want to give a god review to stop this place becoming to booked up for my next visit but that would be selfish. On the first morning when you throw open the french doors and sit and take in the views you will know you made the right choice. The hosts pop along each morning and clean the pool for you. We used to sunbathe in or by the pool until afterlunch then go and exploreintbe afternoon. We went through the mountains to the coast and beach watching the sun go down whilst standing on the pier. Then drove to lucca for supper. One afternoon we visited pisa and paid for parking near to the tower. One afternoon we did bagni de lucca and barga We also watched the sun go down and casting wonderful sun light over the mountain and trees at lake gramalazzo before eating in a taverna. We walked up to the fortess and then recovered whilst drinking lovelly cold drinks and trying to work out how some one drove thier Fiat panda up a parked outside the gates. In summary as long as you are confident driving on the wrong side of the road dont hesitate and book this house you will not be dissapointed. "

"Beautiful location, lovely pool and somewhere for my 91 year old mum to sit in the shade and watch her three great grand daughters in the pool. House very well equipped. Roads quite challenging so glad we had a small car when meeting others on the road!!! Giovanna extremely helpful and sorts any problem out very quickly. "

"Beautiful setting with amazing views. A very peaceful week with visits from wild boar, deer, foxes and a couple of cats. The house is well equipped especially the kitchen. The covered outdoor room on the first floor was a great place to shelter from the hot sun or the thunderstorms (which were great to watch rolling in over the mountains). Lots of places to visit nearby (by car) but we mainly spent the time reading and cooling off in the lovely pool. Definitely recommend the house and local area."

"We had a relaxing,memorable stay enjoying the well-equipped villa which is in a wonderful location for breathtaking views and exploring hilltop villages, local lakes and Lucca. We had everything we needed and for the few food items we wanted there are plenty of local shops a short drive away or the very helpful and friendly bar/shop in Casciana-also great for a beer/wine after a walk/day out. Communication with Francesca was excellent before and during our stay. There are plenty of local walks from the villa, quite a lot of hills involved, however, a car is essential for exploring further afield. We came away feeling totally relaxed and refreshed having explored what must be some of the most beautiful parts of Tuscany. Thank you and we hope to be back."

"Our stay was better than expected with the spectacular views, surrounded by mountains and Mother Nature. It was peaceful, relaxing and most enjoyable living in a house built in 1636 with modern comforts without having given up its history and charm. The pool area is beautifully organized and super clean."

"It was our first trip to Italy, and this was the perfect family dwelling. The pictures don't begin to capture the breathtaking Dolomites or the outstanding accommodations! The kitchen is a gem! So convenient and easy to cook. We had a chef come in to fix dinner on our last day, and he loved the kitchen, too. We took walks/hikes on the surrounding trails, and relaxed by the gorgeous pool which, by the way, has beautiful night lighting!! The owner fixed pizza in the outdoor pizza oven one evening, and it was a highlight of our trip with fresh, delicious ingredients and gracious conversation...and fabulous wines. We did not mind the narrow and winding roads on the days we drove to Lucca (90 minutes) or Florence (2.5 hours), but be aware of the challenging driving that we saw as a Tuscan adventure rather than a negative. It's the perfect get-away!"

"We absolutely loved our stay. This grey stone cottage high in the mountains was exactly what we were hoping for and much more. The views of the mountains were simply breathtaking. Coffee at the infinity pool in the morning was an awesome way to start the day. Drinking a bottle of Italian wine in the late afternoon was even nicer. The cottage had everything we needed. The kitchen was fully equipped. In fact, we ate dinner at home many nights. We also dined in great restaurants all over the region. We we made a warm fire every night. We went on day trips to Florence and two wineries. We visited nearby villages and more. Our hosts were perfect. They made sure we were happy and everything was the way we wanted. All in all, you can’t go wrong with this wonderful home away from home in a special and beautiful corner of the world. We will never forget our stay."
