Pet-friendly cosy cottage+poolclose to Florence. Great views. Capannina. sleeps2

If you are looking for peace, tranquility, beautiful views in an unspoiled landscape with a rich historical background, look no further! A stay in our houses, nestling in the hills above Londa, a pretty old village about 30km from Florence, will offer you a memorable experience.

Our property for two, La Capannina is an ancient barn which was restored maintaining the original features , but adding all the comforts of today s daily life. It s on two floors. Downstairs the dining living area with cooking corner and the bathroom . Upstairs a very large bedroom with fireplace. The two main rooms are connected by a staircase and each of them has an exit to the garden which is on two levels providing shady and sunny areas all day long. A lovely patio before the kitchen accommodates chairs and table to have meals outside and deck chairs to relax . The upper level of the garden has sunbeds and table and chairs for breakfast in front of the bedroom . XIX century wooden pieces of furniture typical of the area create an authentic cosy atmosphere. The pool (14m x 7m) set in lovely extensive ground is just twenty meters away and is shared with other two properties.

The location is ideal to enjoy a peaceful Holiday away fro it all but it s also very suitable for daytrips to the most important Tuscan towns and cities , like Florence , Lucca, Pisa , Siena and Arezzo. La Capannina belongs to a farming estate where organic wine and extra- verin olive oil are produced. Tours to the family oil mill and vineyards are regularly organized in the high season. You need a car to get to the property.

Stunning conversion
Firstly, the property is beautiful and just the right accommodation for 2 people. There were different areas around the spacious ground surrounding our property- very quiet and secluded. We enjoyed views of the stunning surrounding countryside and the shared pool. The pool area was well set out with loungers, table, umbrellas set out in spacious groups around the large grassy area. Although there were a few other families, we often had the area to ourselves. We really enjoyed the peace and quiet, having barbecues and drinking the delicious wine the family produced in their vineyard. We visited surrounding small towns as well as Arezzo which is smaller and quieter than Florence but very beautiful. The only slight drawback for us was that there were no restaurants within walking distance and every excursion was by the very windy road down to the village. Maria Luisa was a perfect host- we really enjoyed our visit to the olive press and vineyard. Pat and Margaret McKenna

La Capannina im September
Das Häuschen La Capannina liegt traumhaft gelegen in den Hügeln um Londa. Die Anfahrt von Londa (ca. 6 km) erscheint beim erstem Mal etwas beschwerlich. Die Straße ist stellenweise sehr steil, schmal und hat einen teilweise sehr schlechten Belag. Bei Gegenverkehr kann es eng werden. Das Haus liegt von wenig Bäumen umgeben am Hang, so dass morgens, mittags und abends sonnige Bereiche zu finden sind. Für unsere Reiszeit Ende September ideal. Die Schlüsselübergabe erfolgte durch Nicola den Sohn der Vermieterin extrem unkompliziert. Nicola war die gesamt Zeit über sehr hilfsbereit aber nie aufdringlich. Zur Befrüßung stand eine Flasche Wein aus eigener Herstellung bereit worüber wir uns sehr gefreut hatten. Das Haus ist für zwei Personen hinsichtlich Größe und Ausstattung völlig ausreichend. Ein wenig eng geht es für größere Menschen in Bad/Toilette zu. Ein weiteres Highlicht ist sicherlich das großzügige Schwimmbad, das wie das gesammte Gelände sehr gepflegt war. Schläft man nachts mit offenen Fenstern (gut möglich da Fliegengitter davor) darf man sich von der Geräuschkulisse (Hunde, Hirsche, Eulen, Zikaden...) nicht stören lassen. Man ist eben sehr in der Natur und kann sich daran natürlich auch erfreuen. Ansonsten ist außer einem gelegentlich entfernten Auto nichts zu hören und es gibt Momente der absoluten Stille. Zu Erwähnen ist auch noch die klare Luft. Was einem aber erst bewußt wird wenn man später wieder in der Stadt unterwegs ist.

Route d’accès
La route d’accès qui grimpe à la maison est très sinueuse, peu large et pas en très bonne état. De plus merci de préciser que la piscine n’est pas disponible avant fin mai. L’accueil par Nicolas a été très sympa, la maison a beaucoup de charme, et le paysage très agréable.

Idyllisches Plätzchen
Sehr schöne und ruhige Lage, ideal zum Entspannen und Natur geniessen. Die Gastgeber sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Wir können es für eine Auszeit nur empfehlen, etwas weit weg vom Schuss, aber das macht es ja aus wenn man Natur und Ruhe sucht.

Erholsamer Urlaub
Maria Luisa ist eine sehr freundliche Gastgeberin! Sie hat uns einen sehr netten Empfang bereitet und stets auf Fragen sehr schnell geantwortet und tolle Tips gegeben! Das Haus hat alles, was man braucht! Für uns war es optimal! Die Idylle ist sehr entspannend. Das Haus liegt etwas abgelegen und die Serpentinenstraße zieht sich von Londa etwas! Das Grundstück ist eingezäunt, was optimal für unsere Hunde war! Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und kommen sicher wieder!

wunderbare umgebung mit eigenem garten
wir haben den 2-wöchigen urlaub sehr genossen. sehr nette eigentümer. wein und olivenöl standen als willkommensgruss bereit. sowohl kulturbesuche nach florenz, arrezzo und eine fotoausstellung in bibiene als auch sportliche aktivitäten wie wandern und radfahren (rincine mtb trail), schwimmen im pool waren gut möglich. im örtlichen lebensmittelmarkt mit supa fertiglasagne und gemüseladen haben wir die regionale kost genossen. es hat uns supa gefallen - gerne wieder. den sieg des österreichischen nationalteams über kroatien konnten wir übers internet verfolgen. am morgen frühgymnastik mit gabi fastner über youtube am pool. marianne und geri aus österreich

Super Ruhig - aber für uns Zuviel Natur (Fliegen, Käfer)
Eigentlich war es wunderschön - bis wir den erste Nacht verstanden haben warum es ein Moskito-Netz beim Bett gab: fliegen und Käfer haben immer wieder den Weg ins Häuschen zu finden. Für uns als Stadtmenschen ein bisschen viel - wir sind deswegen früher abgereist. Außerdem bellen die Hunden in der Gegend bis tief in der Nacht - unsere Hund wollte dann gerne mitreden - sprich: Baby wach. Und so ging das für uns nicht mehr, nach drei Nächten sind wir abgereist. Wir würden es jedes Pärchen Ohne Kind und Ohne Hund / Haustier trotzdem empfehlen - absolute Ruhe und Natur kann sehr schön sein!
