"What an amazing month long stay we had. From the very beginning our host Serena was responsive, caring, warm and most helpful. On our day of checkin she arranged to meet us in the local town to take us to this gem of a property and help us settle in.It is a beautiful country home nestled in the olive groves, with luxurious gardens, including a running stream, multiple patios with beautiful stone work and an outdoor grill. The views of the mountains above the groves of olives are outstanding. The numerous fruit trees, and kiwi vines immerse one in being in Tuscany.The home is spacious. We easily settled in and felt we were "home away from home". The beds are super comfortable, and the baths large and spacious by European standards. There is an abundantly supplied kitchen and dining area with sufficient items to host large gatherings and families. We enjoyed dining outside most days in the lovely spring weather, surrounded by the blooming fruit and olive trees, under blue skies and lovely sun, while serenaded by the running stream.The location in the mountains provided a quiet setting - no traffic noises! There is an amazing masseuse living in a nearby property which we delighted in more than once. We found a place to drop off the laundry and return the next day to pick it up, clean and nicely folded. We enjoyed local walks and day trips to the sea and inland within Tuscany which were easy and enjoyable.We look forward to returning to the serenity and romance!"

"The place was beautiful with so much character. It is a traditional house and you can want to have an experience of staying in “chalet” vibe then this is the place. "

"The staff were top notch, very educated about the property and the surrounding areas. The room was incredible, very sound proof, and breakfast was deliscious with local products. Secure parking, great unheated pool. Highly recommend. "

"Nice stay, strategically positioned between Pisa and Lucca. Need a car to reach the train station. Our stay was in Autumn and we didn't try the swimming pool"

"A stunningly beautiful property with amazing views. This was our 2nd visit in the last 8 years and the owner has made a few improvements such as adding A/C but without compromising the Tuscan charm. We love this villa!! A particular highlight was a local chef Daniela coming to prepare a delicious 4 course meal for us - including the best tiramisu we’ve ever had! Thank you so much Marco for a wonderful stay"

"Giovanna was extremely helpful during our stay. Beautiful location. "

"Great stay! This peaceful property draws you back in medieval time, both with the look and smell (we had to use to the smell though). The rooms are big and clean. A huuge TV in the living room, a pity that the room cannot be more spacious:) The kitchen/dining room could also have been bigger, with a bit more light, but that's how old Tuscan houses look like:) We found all necessities in the kitchen and bathrooms and plenty of towels.The pool is super nice, with a relaxing area around. Thanks to Roberta and Giovanni (with Nina;)!"
