The Villa was beautiful, very spacious and comfortable. The pool was a great addition.
The towels, however we’re all very old and dirty, with stains, so we’re the shower curtains.
The check-in process was ok. Check out was great and quick.
This is an amazing Villa with a great pool, close to a local village with pharmacy, bakery and lovely local restaurants, be sure to book as they are very popular. Great location to visit Florence, Pizza and Lucca. If you visit in August check out the Puccini festival open air opera opera. We would definitely go back and stay. You do need a car.

Beautiful villa and gardens
This was a gorgeous villa with stunning garden and lovely big pool. We appreciated the pool toys Lorenzo gave us and had a lot of fun with them, particularly the penguin! We stayed here with 3 generations of our family and it was perfect. So much space. Also loved having an outside eating area which we used every night, enjoying meals and chatting together.
Lorenzo and Siliva could not have been more helpful and gracious. The Villa is beautiful and homey and provided our group with the perfect spot to visit many different towns in the region. We also used the chef service provided by Lorenzo and had the most amazing time learning to cook and then eat. It was One of our top meals during our Italian vacation. We are looking forward to coming back.

Tranquil, well-located, and immaculately maintained property
We spent three weeks at Villa Niccolai in June 2017 and could not have been more pleased with the experience. There were nine of us (representing three generations of our family), and the house amply accommodated us. The Ronchi family are wonderful hosts - they were gracious, helpful, and responsive. The home is spacious and airy and clean. The grounds are spectacular and pleasantly fragrant. The setting overall is tranquil and feels like an oasis, but we were still close to the main highway, grocery stores, and tourist sites (like Pisa, Florence, etc.) We took many day-trips from the train station in Altopascio, which was about a 10-15 minute drive from the villa. Our small children loved swimming every afternoon in the large, clean pool, which we found quite refreshing given the strength of the Tuscan sun. Stay here: You will not regret it. We are so thankful for our time at Villa Niccolai and for the memories made that that we will enjoy for the rest of our lives.
Been there with 8 friends. Friendly owners, clean and spacious house, all necessery tools & items available. Lovely garden & large beautiful swimming pool with enough chairs/lounge. Close to Lucca and a bakery/shops on a short 5-10 min drive.
Nous avons passé une magnifique semaine dans cette belle propriété. La maison est bien décorée et agréable à vivre. Le jardin est entretenu tous les jours et la piscine est grande et bien exposée.
Siamo un gruppo di amici di 10 persone e abbiamo soggiornato a Capodanno nella bellissima villa Niccolai.
Silvia è stata gentilissima sin dall'inizio, ci ha accolto calorosamente con 2 bottiglie di vino e ci ha mostrato la casa e il giardino.
La casa è molto grande, ci sono due piani, ha 4 bagni, 3 camere matrimoniali e 2 camere singole, una cucina open space con un grande tavolo per 12 persone e per finire 1 zona soggiorno con divano, poltrone e smart tv e una zona degustazione vini.
Ogni camera è particolare a suo modo, alcune sono più luminose altre meno, però sono tutte molto belle e ben arredate.
Ci siamo trovati benissimo, non abbiamo avuto alcun tipo di problema, la casa ha tutto il necessario per trascorrere dei piacevoli giorni!
La casa è circondata da un giardino immenso con tanti alberi, ulivi, un vigneto, una piscina e un piccolo campo da calcetto.
é stato un peccato non aver potuto utilizzare la bellissima piscina, per questo contiamo di tornare un weekend estivo per completare l'opera!
Grazie per la bellissima e indimenticabile esperienza!
La posizione della casa è adatta a visitare la bellissima Firenze (circa 1 ora) e Pisa (circa 40 minuti), inoltre ha a 7 minuti la stazione ferroviaria di Altopascio e a 20 quella di San Romano!
Purtroppo non abbiamo avuto il tempo di visitare Orentano :(
We had a wonderful family vacation with our adult children. Wine tasting, learning to make pasta at the villa, and close to many of Italy's sights. The villa was very cozy and the kitchen was a great central hub for everyone to gather and eat or play games. Lorenzo and Silvia were wonderful and attentive hosts. If we are ever in Tuscany again we would definitely book the villa if it is available.
Além dos ítens acima, clima de muito bomg osto, pessoas gentis e muito educadas. Indicaremos a outros amigos ! um przer ter estado emVila Nicollai. Parabéns.
The Villa was just great for our group of 4 couples. Kitchen was large, we cooked most of our meals on site. We ate both inside and outside. Villa was clean and well kept. Lorenzo our host contacted us daily by text to see how or stay was going. Would highly recommend this Villa. Would rent again without hesitation.
Lorenzo and his sister, Silvia were so very helpful. They always checked in with us each day by text. They were very responsive whenever we needed a restaurant or store recommendation. The property itself was even more beautiful than the pictures.
It was great!!! We, a family of ten adults and three children, stayed there for two weeks and missed nothing. The house and its garden is as it is shown in the gallery and video. Although we planned a lot of activities at the beginning of our vacation we stayed most of the time in the house as it was so comfortable there. The house offers enough homely places so that one can spend time together or apart. You can either relax or doing sports all at once at the same place. It could not have been better for a group. The landlords had been very kind and supportive. We requested one repairing which was done immediately on the following day. Everything was very clean and well-kept, both the house and the garden including the pool.
Although we are sure that the Tuscany restaurant offers a delicious cuisine we loved to cook in "our" kitchen and enjoyed our meal in front of the house looking into the sunset. The bar for the next holidays is raised very high now. :)
The villa and the garden were marvellous. Due to the extreme heath (for Norwegian people) we loved the shadows under the big trees and the air-conditioning in the bedrooms. The large swimming pool was frequently used, and our grandchildren loved it. The location was great for day trips in Tuscany. We all loved our stay in Villa Niccolai. Astrid and Per
The Villa was awesome. We loved the house, pool, grounds and dealing with Lorenzo. It was perfect including swings and slide for the grandkids. Would highly recommend
We had 12 adults and 2 babies stay at Villa Niccolai to celebrate my Mother’s 60th birthday. From start to finish we did not need to worry about a thing. Even during unseasonably hot weather, the air conditioning in the bedrooms kept us cool and Lorenzo was only a message away if we needed him.
He advised of local recommendations and brought us all grappa after dinner on our first night. We even forgot to purchase rosemary for a recipe we were cooking for dinner and he showed us where it was in the property to pick fresh.
The pool was a welcome oasis. The temperature always felt much cooler there and we spent most of our time swimming. The landscaping on the property was lush and meticulously cared for by the gardener each day.
We also enjoyed two meals cooked by Graziella from Chef in Tuscany which was recommended by Lorenzo and his sister Silvia.
In advance of our trip every question was promptly answered and we felt very comfortable that we were in good hands. My parents are not big travelers and were a bit nervous renting a villa so far from home, but Villa Niccolai could not have been more perfect.
The villa is nearby to Lucca, Forte dei Marmi and Florence - all day trips we enjoyed. The local train in Altopascio provided stress free travel into Florence. We hope to return one day!
Beautiful villa for our family. Lorenzo was very attentive and helpful. We would return eagerly to the park-like yard and spacious home. Recommend this to all. A very special place.

Gorgeous Tuscan villa
The villa is in a spectacular setting and the villa itself is everything you could hope for. My wife and I went with three other couples, and we loved the location, the quiet solitude, and the villa itself.
We used the villa as home base and drove to several locations throughout Tuscany, and even up to the Lamborghini Museum in Sant'Agata. There are beautiful hill towns within easy driving distance. Lucca is very close and Florence is easy to get to, as well.
We highly recommend Villa Niccolai.

Wunderschönes, stimmiges Objekt in der Nordtoskana
Wir (3 Generationen - 11 Erwachsene, 2 Kleinkinder) haben das perfekte Objekt für unsere Sommerferien vorgefunden ... mindestens so schön, wie die Bilder im Internet. Das ganze Haus ist hochwertig, liebevoll und stimmig eingerichtet. Die Übergabe bei An- und Abreise ging absolut reibungslos. Selten hatten wir in unseren Urlauben ein derart sauberes Objekt übergeben bekommen. Die Ausstattung ist super und ausreichend, der Pool und das ganze Anwesen absolut gepflegt ... traumhaft. Wöchentlich Poolservice und Wäschewechsel, täglich Gartendienst und Müllabholung. Die Vermieter waren laufend im Kontakt (WhatsApp) mit uns und bei Bedarf ständig erreichbar.
Immer wieder gerne und absolut empfehlenswert!!
