Relaxing after visiting Rome and Florence
Lovely rustic villa in the foothills of the Apuan Alps with stunning views over vinyards, the town and the sea. We were warmly greeted by owners Francesca and Manu, who invited us to join them for a buffet and to taste some of the wine they produce. The villa is set on a steep hillside on 3 levels (so you need to be ok with going up and down stairs!) The pool is set on the same level as the ground floor and has seating and sunbeds alongside. The local ameneties in nearby Ripa are limited, but there is a choice of supermarkets within a few minutes drive towards Forte Dei Marmi. FDM is clearly an 'up market' seaside town with lots of designer shops and a number of restaurants and cafes, mainly set out around the centre that joins the beach at the point where the pier is situated. The beachfront, which stretches for miles in both directions is mostly taken up by private beach clubs. These comprise restaurants and bars and a slice of the beach that they charge you (some a lot!) for using. There are small sections of beach set aside as free to use. We found a community run club called 'Commuale Levante' just before you leave FDM. €20 a day for use of 2 deckchairs, a sunbed and parasol. It's restaurant (Alle Boe) was very friendly and reasonably priced. Best place we found for eating out was nearby Pietrasanta, which has a real old-town feel, but is also a centre for sculpture of all kinds, which is all around you. Daytrip to walled town, Lucca (40 mins drive) was well worth it.

Wonderful House & Hospitality
Francesca & her family could not have been more welcoming or helpful - the house is spotlessly clean, with amazing views to the sea. It is also beautifully restored so you are staying in an authentic and charming farmhouse close to many interesting and enjoyable sites to visit. We cannot recommend this venue highly enough!

Amazing stay in this fantastic property with amazing views
We had a great stay at Francesca and Emmanuel's place. Very friendly and helpful hosts, that make you feel at home from the moment you arrive. Thanks for the great welcome dinner, and the flexibility of eating late because of our delay in arrival. We enjoyed the peaceful location, and amazing views from the hills. We did trips early in the day, and spent time in and around the pool during the hot afternoon hours. The olive garden provides great shadows.

A fantastic long weekend in Tuscany
Francesca and her family were the absolute best hosts we have ever had in a VRBO. The house was in the perfect spot for our trips to the beach, a day in Lucca and a boat rental in La Spezia. Francesca helped make all of the reservations for the beach club (when everything was supposedly sold out!!) and two of the most unique and special restaurants. We never would have found them on our own but they were better than we could have imagined. If I could give the home 6 stars I would.

Fantastic location
My family of 4 really enjoyed our stay. The owners were lovely and hosted us for dinner on our first night. Location is fantastic - short drive to the beach and an easy home base for driving to many beautiful Tuscan towns.

Care makes you happy
Francesca is an amazing hostess, and the house was impeccable and charming and well equipped. Communication went very smoothly via WhatsApp and we stayed there at the end of august for three days. We enjoyed the views from the house, and the beach at Forte dei Marmi which you can reach in 10-15 minutes. Francesca and her family invited us generously for a beautiful dinner when we arrived, which we never experienced before whilst renting houses in Italy! She makes her own delicious wines, which are for sale, highly recommended! A very kind gesture was also to find some water, milk and yoghurts in the fridge and some eggs, bread and jam etc. or breakfast, all very thoughtful. It was special to see the vineyards and the sea from the kitchen. The swimming pool is nice to cool down in, but not really suited to swim your laps in. The house is on a hill, with great views. The terrain is quite steep, there is a car port for the car, it can require some manoeuvring for long cars. Thank you again Francesca!

Perfect tranquil location for a family holiday
We thoroughly enjoyed our recent stay at Francesca’s and Emmanuelle’s home. Situated a few miles from Forte die Marmi in their own vineyard in the beautiful hills. We loved the gorgeous secluded pool with the amazing view. Francesca and her family couldn’t have been more welcoming:- inviting us to dinner with them on our first night, and inviting us to sample their wine produced from their own vineyard. We felt privileged to have been so welcomed by them, and it really made our stay so special, to be able to join them in harvesting the grapes and a post-harvest Italian lunch with their relatives. Many thanks to Francesca, Emmanuelle, Marco and Sky the french bulldog!... and see you again! X

Charming villa, with amazing views and great hosts
We stayed for a week in August and the villa was perfect for our family of four. Our children would have happily spent the entire holiday in the pool, which would could also easily have done, as it was very relaxing to watch the world go by from its quiet, elevated position in the hills. The villa, however, is also well placed for exploring the surrounding area, with beach ahead, hills/mountains behind and easy access to plenty of the history and culture you would expect of Tuscany. The property itself is a charming, rustic villa and we didn't feel the photos quite did it justice. The view greeting you from the main bedroom on opening the shutters in the morning was genuinely good for the soul! The pool is also only metres away, despite feeling secluded and there is a ground floor w/c which makes for a very convenient set-up, despite the property being over three floors. As other reviewers have noted, our hosts were excellent. Freindly and welcoming and always available to help, without being overbearing. Francesca cooked us a lovely meal early into our stay and chatting with her and her family (not to mention drinking wine produced on their vineyard!) very much helped cement our affection for the property and area. Very pleased that we chose to stay here and would happily do so again.

Wonderful stay in a beautiful Toscan Villa
This place is absolutely magnificent. Neither the descrition, nor the pictures gives full justice to the charming villa and it's breathtaking view of the ocean and neighboring mountains. Francesca and her family are considerate, attentive hosts, doing their best to help at all time. The house is well-equipped, has great rooms and a very authentic charm. It's Tuscany in the summer, so it's hot, and there's no air condition. Also there's plenty of mosquitos. But other that that, no complaints whatsoever. We would happily return.

A beautiful villa with stunning view surrounded by vines and olive trees
We had a lovely fortnight in this beautiful villa in August 2018. Francesca and her family made us feel so very welcome, and shared some lovely food and wine with us. The villa was spacious, clean and well equipped, and the kids loved being in the pool. By day there is a great view to the coast and by night you can sit out under the stars. We found lots of good things to do in the area including Pisa, Florence and Lucca. The local beach was clean and affordable and the sea was so warm.
