Summary: The Pucetti family are truly wonderful hosts! Friendly, helpful and great fun and happy to leave us alone if required. The house is perfect for a relaxing holiday. The view from the patio is sublime and as the light changes the detail evolves, mornings and evenings are particularly delightful!

Summary: Lovely place in the mountains, quiet and calm. The city and beach of Lucca are a bit far from the house, the shops are located 11 km away. The house owner lives next to the house, helping in everything that is needed.

Summary: We stayed for 9 nights in June, myself, my wife and 2 young children. I cannot emphasise how beautiful first of all Tuscany is but the villa, gardens and the views at casale lavinia are just second to none. It is just far enough away from everything to feel like you are away from it all, but in reach of everything. The main town close by is lucca and out of all of the town's we visited (pisa, Florence, viareggio etc) this was by far our favourite and only a 20 minute drive. A local supermarket does amazing bread, and a great deli for all fresh food you will enjoy. The villa has all sorts of herbs growing and fresh lemons, so if you like I did enjoy cooking you will not be disappointed! They also produce wine from their own vines, and also make olive oil Lastly the hosts, Edo, Maurizio and ilene and just lovely people, you are very much left alone with your privacy to get on with your vacation but I enjoyed their friendly chats when we did bump into them. Thanks so much guys 100 percent would recommend the villa, if you want a slice of Tuscan life for some days. I and my family will remember this holiday forever. Ps - watch the fireflies at night when it gets dark. Amazing spectacle along with soaring birds of prey and the odd bright green lizard running around

Summary: Our family of four had a warm welcome from Edu and family despite our late arrival. The property has three good sized bedrooms which are traditionally furnished. The two shower rooms are modern and very clean and the kitchen is well equipped. The reception room is open-plan into the kitchen and overall this space is good but probably not big enough for more than four if you were stuck inside due to bad weather. Outside there is a covered area with a large table and chairs where up to eight could eat and drink comfortably. The outside areas are great; well-maintained with enough seating and sun loungers. The pool is superb; a good size and, again, well-maintained with the owners cleaning and checking the water every evening. The views of the surrounding hills from the property are great and you can see all the way to Pisa on a clear day. We loved the location in the hills, for the views and for the general peacefulness. However, due to the road up to the property (quite narrow in places and twisty) it generally takes up to 20 minutes to the nearest small shop and 35 minutes approx. into Lucca with its large supermarkets. Pisa is about one hour away. This was not a problem but worth bearing in mind if you run out of provisions or decide to supersize your rental car. Edu and his family live in the property behind the rental property, but you would not know that they were there unless you needed them. We found them to be very friendly and helpful and would highly recommend their property.

Summary: Very picturesque.very clean and just how it looks in the pictures had a relaxing and enjoyable break with my family.Only down side is the journey up to the property and time it takes to get into Lucca,which you need a good twenty minutes to get to even if it is only 10km.However once you are at the property it is worth the journey.Very friendly owners. Loved the evenings eating outside on the patio.Thankyou would definitely visit again

Summary: Castle Lavinia provided a wonderful holiday for us. The views are the best we have ever had and I never tired of just sitting and taking it all in (on a clear day the leaning tower of Pisa can be seen). The property and grounds are very tidy and well maintained (pool cleaned daily with the house cleaned and linen refreshed after the first week). There is plenty to see and do in the area and we certainly feel we could spend another two weeks here without many (if any) repeat activities. The road to the property can initially be a little hair-raising to drive up (very narrow in places with steep drops) but is fine when you get used to it. The small supermarket at Sant Alessio is only 15 minutes drive and does great fresh focaccia and other essential items. Lucca itself is also beautiful and has a number of larger shops. I would say that the drive to Lucca is realistically more like 25 minutes than the 15 mentioned in the details but that's not much of a hardship when you consider the location of the house and the views you get in return. Owners are very helpful and friendly and were always on hand if needed but we never felt overlooked by them. Overall a perfect holiday house and location. Usually we like to try different places for our stays but feel Castle Lavinia is so nice we would seriously consider staying here again when we undoubtedly return to this part of Italy.

Summary: Six of us returned yesterday from a fortnight at Casale Lavinia, which proved to be a wonderful base from which to explore Northern Tuscany. Edo and his family are outstanding hosts; helpful without being obtrusive, and they were so kind to us throughout our stay. The house itself is beautifully maintained, and we spent a lot of time in and around the garden and pool area, which had the breeze to mediate the heat which some of the towns lower down in the valleys didn't during the current heat wave. As a mark of the care they devote to the place, the pool was cleaned every day, and was pretty idyllic as a place to keep cool and enjoy pool volleyball or just ploughing up and down trying to work off the pizza, pasta and Chianti. We also enjoyed sitting out on the terrace at night in the warm evening breeze, usually with all the outside lights turned off watching shooting stars and enjoying the sounds of the mountains and forest at night (lots of wildlife around - saw wild boar, many foxes, buzzards and some beautiful large butterflies). A couple of tips - there is no air conditioning in the house itself, and so the bedrooms can become quite hot. It may be worth taking a portable fan or something similar just to get some sort of breeze through the rooms at night (open windows result in mosquitoes getting in). Secondly, the nearest supermarket is a 20 minute drive down the spectacular mountain road so if, as we did, you arrive late on the first evening, it is probably worth doing a food shop in Lucca before you head up the hill to the villa. A couple of recommended trips...Lucca generally is beautiful, and we had a particularly lovely afternoon cycling around the city walls, which is a really popular pastime and allows you to see the city whilst keeping cool and getting some gentle exercise. Also, a place near Bagni di Lucca (40 min drive) has just recently opened called Canyon Park....stunning gorge adventure place with zip lining, high ropes, and paddle boarding up the gorge. Sounds intimidating but isn't, and has the most stunning opal coloured waters to swim in and clamber up the rocks and jump in...we had several teenagers with us and they, and we, loved it, although the water is cold so takes some getting used to. Overall, a wonderful place to stay, with lovely hosts and an idyllic setting.

Summary: Four adults and two teenage girls in our party stayed for a blissful week in May 2017. Our hosts were kind and most helpful, providing board games and DVDs to keep girls occupied some evenings. Lovely large bedrooms and nice kitchen. Gardens and pool was excellent, well kept and watered and cleaned daily. We ate outdoors every meal under the covered patio area. The only slight drawback was that the lounge was a bit small for six people but given the lovely weather this did not prove much of a problem for our party. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us.
