“Charming rustic villa with stunning scenery, great hospitality and a few areas for refresh”
+The property itself is beautiful , rustic, full of character and charm. The pool and gazebo were perfect spots to relax, and the surrounding scenery was stunning (even better than the photos). Inside, the villa had everything we needed, with plenty of utensils and cookware for home meals. I even used Deliveroo to order from Carrefour, and groceries arrived within the hour. Two of the rooms have newer en-suite bathrooms, which was a great bonus. Marco, the owner, was kind, respectful and very responsive , even helping us arrange taxis when needed. There’s also a lovely restaurant about a 15-minute walk away, which made evenings out easy and enjoyable. A wonderful stay overall
−The villa has a lot of charm with its traditional character, though this also means the WiFi only works in the kitchen, dining and living areas. The thick old walls add to the feel of the property but do limit the signal. We managed fine, though it did cut out a few times and needed resetting. The linen could do with a fresher wash, and having a few more bath towels would be helpful. I’d also suggest bringing your own shower gel, as only hand soap was provided. The shared bathroom is functional but quite dated and could benefit from a little refresh.

“Great house near Lucca with fabulous garden and pool”
+The house was great for us. The highlight is the outside area, the pool and garden (with plenty of shade and countryside views) were spectacular. We had concerns about the fact that there might be disturbance from the upstairs neighbours, but this was not the case.they also had shuttered windows so we did not feel overlooked when relaxing in the garden. We were also worried about the lack of aircon but in July 32-34 degree heat the house stayed cool. Well equipped kitchen, good bedrooms and bathrooms . Comfortable living room that we barely used. A couple of local restaurants within 15-20 minutes walked, and Lucca city a short drive away.
−There weren't any pool towels provided, but this was quickly rectified by the friendly host. WiFi is almost non existent in the two bedrooms at the back of the house.

“The Best of Italy.”
+Perfect location and settings for a gorgeous villa to relax in and enjoy. The outside seating area was a favourite place to soak in the stunning views of the surrounding hillside. The landscaped garden and swimming pool were very well maintained. Villa was spacious and had everything needed while still retaining the feel of authentic rustic Italy. Great hosts who were attentive to every detail. Very good communication with them. Thankyou Marco for a great stay.
−We liked everything.

“Enjoyable stay”
+It was very peaceful and the owner was very helpful and responsive. It had everything we needed e.g an electric kettle, good powerful shower etc. Private secure parking was welcome and it was an easy trip into Lucca. We also enjoyed a brilliant and very cheap meal at Ristorante Da Nonno Mariano.
−It's an apartment within a larger villa with other properties next to and above. This meant you could hear people walking around/moving furniture above and at times had people right outside the window, although there were net curtains to provide privacy. I also found the mattrass very uncomfortable, although appreciate this is very much personal preference. The villa is quite dark, but the photos on the listing are representative of this.

“Needs A Little Love”
+Privacy and location. Beautiful grounds. We were very fortunate for Patsha's assistant. He was the property manager and helped us with everything. A little far from Lucca central but close to Autostrada. Plenty of parking on-site
−Found our unit a little run down and in need of paint and repair. Our 3rd bath was out of order. The unit was very dark with low voltage lighting. No shelving in the showers. Not walkable to shopping or attractions.
