Perfectly situated in the heart of the gentle Lunigiana countryside, yet within walking distance of bar, restaurant and shop this villa is also less than an hour from the beach and La Spezia too for exploring the stunning cinque terre.

Further outdoor eating areas Ping Pong Trampoline Enjoy this unique experience! A little about the area: Situated in the depths of the Lunigiana countryside, on the northern Tip of Tuscany , yet within walking distance of a bar, restaurant and shop. The closest train station is less than 1.5km away, aiding easy exploration of Lucca, the market town of Castelnuovo, Pisa and Florence (with a change at Lucca). It is also possible to take the train to the Cinque Terre which is a big bonus! The market town of Aulla is 20 mins by car, beautiful Fivizzano under 20 mins and under1 hour to the beaches. This villa gives a unique opportunity to explore the totally unspoilt and gentler area at the tip of Tuscany, (Lunignana) but since it is only 20 minutes from the motorway, then the usual sights are in fact easier to visit than from many properties further south. Ideal also for cheaper flights from Genoa/Parma although the property is equidistant from Genoa and Pisa airports. The climate is mild, with olive trees and vines, making for relaxing drives. Spend your days sightseeing, hiking straight from the door, or relaxing at that amazing pool. Don't forget to stargaze after dining al fresco as this is a perfect spot for shooting stars! Or in the Spring dine outside whilst watching the twinkles from the fireflies... ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Outdoor pool - Private pool ### Internet - Available in the villa: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Kitchen island - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 5 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 3 bathrooms - Bidet - Hair dryer - Shower - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Separate dining area ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - Up to 25 kg per pet ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Things to do - Table tennis ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 4:00 PM Minimum check-in age - 21 ### Check-out Check-out before 10:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions ### Rules Pool open 1st May to 30th September.

But the house is also great, with large rooms and, a well-equipped kitchen. Stefano was a helpful, responsive and friendly host. ##### Xanthe V.

We have had many vacation rentals over the years and this stood out as one of best. The house is in a beautiful, peaceful location. Marco and the other property managers were helpful and gave us wonderful suggestions for restaurants, shops and sites to visit. The grounds and house were beautifully tended and the pool was perfect. We were two families with plenty of space to roam. We loved our stay and would highly recommend it. ##### Janet W.

Ein stattliches, renoviertes Haus. Die liebevoll eingerichteten und großzügigen Zimmer sind sehr einladend. Auch das Nebengebäude mit Bad, Küche und großen Fenstern wurde sehr schön renoviert und eingerichtet. Wir haben uns sofort wohl gefühlt. Das Highlight für uns aber war der Pool mit der großen Wiese und der herrlichen Aussicht. Fantastisch! Zwar nicht so wichtig, aber selbst der Parkbereich mit den vielen Olivenbäumen ist schön. Von da aus führt ein Laubengang zum Haus. Die Koffer können direkt vor dem Haus ausgeladen werden. Der sehr freundliche Vermieter war immer erreichbar und der Kontakt war problemlos. Zu empfehlen ist auch der Pizzaabend. Die verschiedenen Pizzen, die direkt vor Ort im Steinofen gebacken werden, waren außerordentlich gut. Vielen Dank an die beiden „Bäcker“, vor allem auch für die liebe Geburtstagsüberraschung. Insgesamt wurden unsere Erwartungen übertroffen. ##### Katharina M.

Een rustige plek te midden van diverse kleine dorpjes. De woning en bijwoning zijn ruim en voorzien van alle gemakken. Het zwembad en de omliggende tuin is ruim en heerlijk. De woning ligt hoog in de bergen, de route ernaar toe is smal, heuvelachtig en niet altijd even makkelijk te bereiden. Hou hier rekening mee. Verder een top woning met de mogelijkheid om veel van de omgeving te verkennen. En een dik compliment voor het ontvangst en de vraagbaak Elettra! Tip: bezoek aan de stad Lucca, La Spezzia, Equi Terme (grot bezoek) en Lago di Gramolazzo. Verder een concertavond bij Agriturismo Tripala ook doen! ##### Desiree F.

I nostri 6 ragazzi sono rimasti entusiasti della vacanza, noi adulti abbiamo potuto vivere un'esperienza di grande emozione nella fantastica solitudine della location. Finalmente una vacanza tutti insieme senza troppe distrazioni. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [17 Century Farmhouse with HEATED pool, games room & aircon (EXCLUSIVE USE)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Anghiari-Hotels-10-Discount-FOR-2020-17-Century-Farmhouse-With-Heated-Pool.h36354411.Hotel-Information) > > [Tenuta La Bandita](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sassetta-Hotels-Tenuta-La-Bandita.h1147278.Hotel-Information) > > [Sina Astor](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Viareggio-Hotels-Sina-Astor.h573657.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hotel Bonanno](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pisa-Hotels-Grand-Hotel-Bonanno.h1391564.Hotel-Information) > > [Toscana Holiday Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Montopoli-In-Val-DArno-Hotels-Toscana-Holiday-Village.h8330824.Hotel-Information) > > [Borgo Santo Pietro](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chiusdino-Hotels-Relais-Borgo-Santo-Pietro.h4644735.Hotel-Information) > > [Hu Park Albatros Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Vincenzo-Hotels-Park-Albatros-Village.h4140576.Hotel-Information) > > [Castello di Casole, A Belmond Hotel, Tuscany](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Casole-DElsa-Hotels-Castello-Di-Casole.h5058985.Hotel-Information) > > [Camplus Firenze Fortezza - Casa per Ferie](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Florence-Hotels-Camplus-Guest-Firenze.h67665965.Hotel-Information) > > [Locanda In Tuscany](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Castiglione-DOrcia-Hotels-Locanda-In-Tuscany.h13085760.Hotel-Information) > > [Palace Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Viareggio-Hotels-Palace-Hotel.h18611.Hotel-Information) > > [La Pace](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Forte-Dei-Marmi-Hotels-La-Pace.h3801865.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Mizar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chianciano-Terme-Hotels-Hotel-Mizar.h23963148.Hotel-Information) > > [Grotta Giusti Thermal Spa Resort Tuscany, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monsummano-Terme-Hotels-Grotta-Giusti-Thermal-Spa-Resort-Tuscany.h904294.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Borgo San Luigi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monteriggioni-Hotels-Hotel-Borgo-San-Luigi.h527532.Hotel-Information) > > [Pisa Tower Plaza](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pisa-Hotels-Allegroitalia-Pisa-Tower-Plaza.h3067108.Hotel-Information) > > [Camping Village Torre Pendente](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pisa-Hotels-Camping-Village-Torre-Pendente.h6572809.Hotel-Information) > > [Eden Rock Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Florence-Hotels-Eden-Rock-Resort.h1723244.Hotel-Information) > > [Resort Capalbio](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Capalbio-Hotels-Resort-Capalbio.h2784939.Hotel-Information) > > [Agriturismo Il Casalino](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Civitella-Paganico-Hotels-Agriturismo-Il-Casalino.h24337567.Hotel-Information) > > [PuntAla Camp & Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Castiglione-Della-Pescaia-Hotels-PuntAla-Camp-Resort.h6890097.Hotel-Information) > > [Cappuccina Country Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Gimignano-Hotels-Relais-Cappuccina-Ristorante-Hotel.h1343502.Hotel-Information) > > [Tenuta Fattoria Vecchia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Scansano-Hotels-Tenuta-Fattoria-Vecchia.h24139391.Hotel-Information) > > [Villa Il Castagno Wine & Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Siena-Hotels-Villa-Il-Castagno-Wine-Resort.h21339011.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Palazzo San Lorenzo & SPA](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colle-Di-Val-DElsa-Hotels-Hotel-Palazzo-San-Lorenzo-SPA.h3474921.Hotel-Information) > > [Hu Norcenni Girasole Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Figline-E-Incisa-Valdarno-Hotels-Norcenni-Girasole-Village.h3530075.Hotel-Information) > > [The Sense Experience Resort - Preferred Hotels & Resorts](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Follonica-Hotels-The-Sense-Experience-Resort.h31888190.Hotel-Information) > > [Hu Montescudaio Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Montescudaio-Hotels-Camping-Village-Montescudaio.h42358598.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hotel Royal](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Viareggio-Hotels-Grand-Hotel-Royal.h27947.Hotel-Information) > > [Villa Olmi Firenze](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bagno-A-Ripoli-Hotels-Villa-Olmi-Firenze.h1441538.Hotel-Information)
