Summary: The Villa is a great place for family and friends to spend a wonderful holiday in Tuscany. Meryl is a great host and was always very responsive to any questions that we had during our one month stay. The Villa is amazing and the pictures posted do not convey how nice and comfortable the Villa is. The Villa sits near the top of a Tuscan hill (mountain) with spectacular views of the surrounding valley. While we were there (September) the weather was perfect and there was always a pleasant breeze and no need for air conditioning. I can not say enough about how great our experience was in this lovely Villa. I would definitely return to this Villa if I return to Tuscany.

Summary: We spent 6 nights in a beautiful house in the great environment. Lovely views, very well equipped house, nicely decorated rooms and good kitchen. Everything we needed. A very helpful landlady, who helped us find the most interesting walking routes, places to visit etc. We enjoyed our stay very much and seriously consider coming again, because there is still so much to see and experience in the Carfagnana region and Alpe Apuene.

Summary: We had a wonderful week at Rustico dell’Eremo. The house is high up on the side of a mountain and very private. The terrace wraps around three sides of the house which catches the sun throughout the day and has breath taking views in all directions. The house was spotlessly clean with everything that we needed to hand. Meryl had provided excellent directions to the house as well as comprehensive instructions for appliances and recommendations for the local area. She was easily contactable should we still have any questions. Within the house there was plenty of information about local attractions with large scale maps of the local and surrounding areas. We were very sad to leave, a week was not long enough!

Summary: We had read the description and seen the pictures but we were still surprised when we arrived. The house is so nice and the view is marvelous. The house was perfect for our stay in the mountains. You can go hiking, trekking, walking or you can just enjoy the near surroundings, the garden and the view. When we arrived we were welcomed by the owner a very sweet and very helpful woman who answered all our questions. This is a vacation home you don't want to leave. It's a keeper and we are very much considering renting it again for another vacation.

Summary: Fantastic property up in the mountains. If it's silence and away from everyone?, this is the place to be.

Summary: Stunning object in a mesmerizing location. Perfectly clean, comfy and cozy. Perfect for anyone who wants to escape stress and enjoy nature. Right in the mountains, yet only 1,5hrs from beautiful beaches - ideal for those who struggle to decide between the two. The kids loved it a lot and so did we. An absolute recommendation, not just for the house itself, but also for the lovely owner!

Summary: An extraordinary place, allowing a quiet freedom to be immersed in the power of nature, in both sight and thought. Surrounded by history in an ancient land , this comfortable house looks over a medieval church ,valleys and mountains, a respite from a hectic world. It is well furnished and cared for, and very much appreciated by us. Thank you Meryl Sandra and Johnpaul Canada

Summary: The photos do not do it justice. It is a way off the beaten track but the peace, quiet and views are stupendous. Everything needed was provided and the owner made sure our stay was everything we hoped for and more. We will certainly return if and when we can.

Summary: We arrived a little early; Meryl had been gardening. My first words to her, after how do you do, were 'The photographs don't do this place justice'--and they don't. If you know Italy and the light in the mountains in the early morning, in the brightness of the day, and in the glorious evening, you know how exquisite it is to sit and watch the play of light and cloud across the landscape, and to see the lights of the village across the valley coming on. And behind you, as you sit on the terrace, is a charming, comfortable and thoroughly welcoming house. Yes, the approach roads are rather exciting, and those who live in the mountains tend to drive as if no-one else ever uses the road (but they do, of course) but you get used to it and come to see it all as part of a holiday the memories of which will last and last as a time of special beauty. So: house great--charming, well-kept, well-organised: host kind and helpful, all together, who ever really wants to go home?
