House "Il Metato" amongst colours and perfumes of the Mediterranean

On the edge of splendid Tuscany, almost on the border with Liguria, a few steps away from the sea and the Apennine mountains, surrounded by lush nature, lies La Polletta: an enchanting holiday home that offers its guests a short break from daily life.
La Polletta is an oasis of tranquility immersed in a paradise of Mediterranean scents and colours. Located between Lucca and Pisa, two cities rich in history and culture, this holiday home is the ideal place to relax and enjoy the wonders that Tuscany has to offer.
As soon as you cross the threshold of IL METATO you are greeted by a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The interiors are furnished with care and taste, drawing inspiration from local colors and traditions. The walls recall the surrounding nature: outside, centuries-old olive trees, lemons and citrus fruits, colorful flowers that give vitality and joy to the spaces.
The flat is spacious and bright. The furnishings are simple and comfortable, designed to make guests feel at home but away from it. Every detail has been taken care of, to guarantee an unforgettable experience.
Tuscan cuisine is a true culinary treasure. Here, the traditional flavors of local cuisine mix with fresh, quality ingredients, coming directly from local gardens. Many dishes are prepared with love and passion, following recipes handed down for generations. Guests can enjoy specialties in the village such as Tordelli, Torta di Pizzi, Cecina and much more, accompanied by local wines yet to be discovered by the masses such as Lucca's red Montecarlo or Luni's white Vermentino.
Outside, La Polletta is surrounded by a lush garden. The olive, citrus, pine and cypress plants typical of the Tuscan landscape create an atmosphere of peace and relaxation. It is the ideal place to spend pleasant moments in the shade of centuries-old trees, stroll among the scents of flowers and perhaps even enjoy a romantic candlelit dinner in the garden.
The strategic position of La Polletta allows you to easily reach numerous places of interest nearby. Both art and culture lovers, as well as excursions and water sports enthusiasts will find a wide choice of activities to do here. The sandy beaches of Viareggio, Marina di Pietrasanta or Lido di Camaiore and the ancient wonders of Lucca and Pisa are just a few kilometers away.
La Polletta, among the scents and colors of the Mediterranean, is much more than a simple holiday home: it is a complete experience that embraces body, mind and soul. Here, the warmth of Tuscan hospitality combines with the beauty of nature, creating a unique and magical environment in which to relax and regenerate.

Pleasant retreat with stunning views.

My wife and I have just returned from a blissful week at this property. Well situated for exploring Tuscany. Lovely views, clean heated pool and plenty of parking. Livio and Vitoria were on hand for anything we needed and the owners communication was excellent.

Peaceful, relaxing and stunning views

Well equipped property which was perfect for a couple. Loved the outside space with extensive gardens, lovely pool and fresh herbs to pick and use for home cooking. Vittoria and the owners helped us when we needed it and were highly responsive.

Great stay at a great location

This is an amazing house. It's located on a hilltop overlooking Camaiore. The house itself is very nice and has all the basics. It's located on the far right of the house so no other guests will bother you. Vittoria is a very nice woman who will help you with anything. The house is also very close to Camaiore (walking distance, although you must climb), Lucca, Pisa, and Viareggio. We recommend it very much.

Cleanest accommodations on VRBO!!!!

This property was better than advertised. Although I was apprehensive about the fine for not properly recycling, it turned out to be just fine. You **NEED** to have a car to access this property - the is no alternative. The views are breathtaking. The location is 30 minutes or 60 minutes away from anywhere you want to go in this region. The kitchen is very well stocked with any tool you may need - rather impressive. The unit I stayed in had the spiral staircase to the bedroom - after a few trips it was easy. The host is gracious and helpful. My end unit would be easily wonderful for a family of 4. Excellent patio area, lounge chairs, BBQ, and table/chairs for 4 people. I'd recommend this place and would consider staying here again, maybe staying a week, and enjoying the property and pool more. The town center is beautiful as well.

Clean, newly renovated house with a beautiful view

We really enjoyed our stay at the little farmhouse Il Metato, which was a bakery in former times! The house was great and especially the garden which its seating outside and also the view from there are beautiful. Everything was well organized and the owner and the staff were really nice and took good care of our comfort. The house offers everything you need for daily use for example for cooking. Everything was really clean and newly renovated and nevertheless the house keeps a special charm of an old homely house. In the time we stayed at the house there were lots of Moskitos so better take some Autan with you. But the sleeping room was preparated with an electric Moskito repellent mashine. In order to reach the house you will definitely need car. We can really recommend Il Metato and enjoyed our days up on the mountain. We would definitely come back again!

LaPolletta

We enjoyed our stay at LaPolettas very much. Everything was as described in the online description. The check-in and check-out procedures were very clear and uncomplicated. Overall the accommodation is definitely to be recommended, even wit a small child. In times with the COVID pandemic, the host acted in the proper way and stuck to the hygiene rules; however, the shared pool (which is awesome) is a possible way to get infected. Why? Because no one actually of the other guests stuck to the rules, not to mention that the guests not showered before entering the pool, although clearly pointed out by the host. This ignorance of the other guests in terms of the current pandemic was shocking and made our stay a bit sour. We have not been able to use the pool as we imagined. As I Doctor by myself, it should be made crystal clear that the corona rules have been applied by all guests to make the holiday comfortable to all of them and not only to one family, who also refused to speak English. But that's not the fault of the host.

Fantastic holiday in Camaiore

I spent 10 wonderful days on the estate "La Poletta" with my 16 year old daughter and her boyfriend. Our small house was perfect, quiet, the terrace huge, for breakfast still pleasant cool and in the evening with cozy corner! The best part, what else was the amazing pool with a lot of sun beds and parasols. I even could swim laps and the best time was in the evening with sunsetview behind the mountains!!! And the other guests were hardly noticed, as many were traveling. Vittoria, the housekeeper had everything under control and was available at all times, even at our arrival very late at night! Thank you very much once again. And one more thing, Camaiore is absolutely the best place to stay. Pisa, Lucca are easy to reach, but in the evening you should eat out here - far enough away from the touristic beaches/towns - the restaurants, bars and Cafeterias are wonderfull and cheap with fantastic value. The little town is just magical and it cannot be more local! At the end of our trip to Tuscany we felt home here everytime we past the roundabout on our way up to our lovely accomodation. We will come back, of course again to La Poletta! In addition, I thank Stefano & Margherita, which I unfortunately did not meet. The communication by email and telephone was great and important to me. At any time both were immediately there for my questions! Outstanding landlords!

Abwechslungsreicher Urlaub

Unsere Wohnung "Metato" in der sehr gepflegten kleinen Anlage war für uns absolut ideal. Viele verschiedene Sitzmöglichkeiten - sonnig oder schattig - mit wunderschönem Ausblick und absolut ruhig. Obwohl zu keinem Zeitpunkt alle Parteien gleichzeitig am Gemeinschaftspool waren, gibt es für jede Partei Liegestühle. Die Wohnung hat eine ordentliche Grundausstattung und war sehr sauber. Die Schnaken am frühen Abend sind etwas lästig, man muss sich frühzeitig einsprühen. Vittoria, die Verwalterin, ist eine Perle. Sie spricht zwar nur Italienisch - mit Zeichensprache und Google-Translate klappt die Kommunikation aber gut. Die letzten 400 Meter bis zur Anlage sind abenteuerlich, da die Straße teilweise extrem schmal ist, viele Schlaglöcher und in Teilen mehr als 10% Steigung hat. Wir hatten unsere Fahrräder dabei und haben dies nicht bereut, auch wenn ich die letzten 400 Meter schieben musste. Der Ort Camaiore bietet gute Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und viele Restaurants. Die Region ist sehr abwechslungsreich. Der Strand ist nicht weit, die Berge bieten viele Wandermöglichkeiten, Lucca, Pisa und natürlich Florenz bieten sich als weitere Ziele an. Wer nicht mit dem Auto fahren will, kann ab Viareggio oder Camaiore-Lido mit dem Zug fahren. Auch bei Rennradfahreren ist die Region beliebt.

Urlaubsresort unter den Sternen

Am Anreisetag wurden wir vorsorglich von Stefano über gesperrte Straßen im Ort informiert, sodass wir uns mit der Hauswirtschafterin Signora Vittoria im Dorf treffen konnten. Diese hat uns netterweise an den Sperrungen vorbeigeführt, den Berg rauf zum Ferienhaus. Sehr aufmerksam! Die Strasse den Berg rauf wird immer steiler, enger und abenteuerlicher, bei den Schlaglöchern sollte man schon aufpassen. Oben angekommen erreicht man dann aber ein schönes und großes Grundstück. Man hat seinen eigenen Platz für sich und kann sehr schnell entspannen. Vom Pool aus hat man eine wunderschöne Sicht auf Bergspitzen und die Sterne :) Vittoria kümmert sich sehr fleißig um den Garten, es sieht alles sehr gepflegt aus. Zu Fuß ist die Dorfmitte sehr gut erreichbar, wo man gut für den Alltag einkaufen oder sich zum Essen/Trinken in eine der Lokalitäten setzen kann. Das Ferienhaus bietet alles für einen Urlaub zu zweit und wir wären so gerne viel länger geblieben!

kleine feine Wohnung

Sehr ruhige Umgebung, man konnte gut entspannen. Der Pool ein absolutes Highlight und durch die tägliche Reinigung immer sauber. Die Wohnung war mit allem ausgestattet was man braucht, nur Gewürze waren nicht vorhanden. Leider war das Geschirr von den Vormietern größtenteils fettig, sodass wir alles vor dem ersten Gebrauch spülen mussten. Die Vermieter und Vittoria waren immer erreichbar und haben gerne weitergeholfen. Alles in allem haben wir eine schöne und erholsame Woche gehab.

Bis auf Kleinigkeiten wirklich zu empfehlen

Das Problem mit den Mücken ist nicht zu unterschätzen. Wofür der Vermieter natürlich nicht verantwortlich ist. Mückenschutz an den Fenstern wäre sinnvoll um lüften zu können ohne anschließende Insektenjagd. Wir haben trotzdem sehr gut geschlafen dank Klimaanlage und der Pool und die Lage und Aussicht sind beeindruckend. Wir haben die Ruhe genossen!

Kleines Toskanahäuschen

Wenn man sich sicher ist, sich komplett verfahren zu haben, kommt man an das Tor mit dem dahinter liegenden gepflegten Anwesen, an dessen Ende das kleine Häuschen liegt. Da das Wetter leider zum Teil nicht so gut war, haben wir mehr Zeit als geplant im Ferienhaus verbracht. Weil wir das obere und das untere Zimmer als Schlafzimmer genutzt haben, hatten wir nur die Küche als Sitzplatz, was uns etwas eng war. Den sehr sauberen Pool konnten wir wegen des Wetters leider nicht benutzen. Eine Rotkehlchenfamilie hat unter dem Dach des Sitzplatzes gemistet, wir konnten sie beobachten, und die Vögelchen sind nach ein paar Tagen ausgeflogen. Als Ausgangspunkt für Ausflüge nach Cinque Terre, Pisa und Florenz war es für uns ideal. Die Gebäckteilchen bei der Pasticcheria Rossano in Camaiore sind unübertrefflich gut!!! Wir hätten uns nur neuere, flauschigere Handtücher gewünscht. Ansonstensind wir mit unserem Aufenthalt dort sehr zufrieden.
