Summary: Great

Summary: The villa is spacious and very well equipped. The pool is excellent. The town is close but a car is needed for the middle aged unless they are moderately fit. The station is further out of town and does not have a taxi rank. The staff in the station bar will call taxis. Simone Romei, a recommended driver, couldn't be more helpful and speaks excellent english. He was tied up with local fireman duties for one week whilst we were there but recommended another driver. A list of recommended local services and instructions on fuse boxes and kitchen equipment would be useful. There was a storm one night which tripped the gate switch, it took about half a hour to find the fuse box with that switch. This is all the negatives about the villa. The local town is excellent. It is not a tourist centre. It serves a local community so prices are very reasonable, there are excellent restaurants and most of all it is quintessentially Italian. We loved the villa and thoroughly enjoyed a relaxing holiday in the most beautiful surroundings.

Summary: Wonderful villa, private pool and garden, spectacular views and close to the town to take advantage of the local restaurants. The mountain environment was wonderful. We had a specific requirement for wheelchair access and for anyone requiring this the villa was very suitable. Local taxis were able to take the wheelchair also. Thoroughly recommend the villa to all parties

Summary: The owners were lovely people very friendly, the villa was gorgeous we could not fault it, it was perfect. The locals were friendly and the little village that was appox 15min walk away had plenty of cafes and the food and drinks were at very reasonable prices. This was our first trip to Italy and we are definitely going to go back as it was such a beautiful place where we completely relaxed.

Summary: We were a family group of 5 adults and 3 children aged 11, 8 & 6. The villa is spacious to say the least with 2 lounge areas and 2 kitchens if needed! There is a table tennis table in the garage area as well as a laundry room with washing machine. The villa had Wifi which worked perfectly well with the 5 devices we hooked up to it. TVs in all bedrooms and both lounges have access to Italian TV, no English speaking satellite channels, and there are a couple of DVD players (well used when you have a week of rain!!) The pool is set in spacious gardens and is solar heated, unfortunately we had rain for most of the week we were there so cant comment on how effective this heating is. The gardens have plenty of grassed areas good for playing ball games with the kids. There is a small charcoal barbecue available for use too. The owners live just five minutes from the property so are on hand for any problems that need resolving. We found them both very pleasant and eager to ensure our stay went well. Please note that they do not speak English so practise your Italian or take a dictionary to make communicating with them easier. The villa is located on the hillside overlooking Castelnuovo di Garfagnana and has wonderful views of the surrounding Tuscan hills, it should be noted that the walk into the town takes about 15 minutes (20 mins to return uphill) but because the villa is on the hillside the walk is a steep one. Not recommended for the elderly or less mobile. A taxi back from town cost us 15 Euros, but that was for 8 of us in a minibus. The town has a selection of good restaurants spread around and also a few shops plus a supermarket. The market on a Thursday is mainly cheap clothes so don’t expect a traditional continental market with food, fruit and veg etc… There is a train station in the town and the train to Lucca takes just under an hour (11 Euros return), the journey is a picturesque one along the river and Lucca is worth a visit for a day out.
