wonderful Tuscany villa vacation
we had the pleasure of staying at a beautiful villa Poggio della Civetta, and it was an unforgettable experience. The villa itself was stunning, with a breathtaking view of the rolling hills and vineyards that Tuscany is famous for. The scenery was nothing short of magical, providing the perfect backdrop for a relaxing and rejuvenating vacation. Our hosts were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. They went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and enjoyable, offering helpful tips on local attractions and even sharing some of their delicious homemade wine and olive oil with us. Both were absolutely divine and added a special touch to our stay. The only minor downside was the road leading to the villa. It was unpaved and quite narrow, which made the journey a bit challenging at dark times, especially for larger vehicles (pegeot 308 sw). Overall, our stay at the Tuscany villa was a dream come true. The combination of the beautiful location, warm hospitality, and delicious local products made it a truly memorable experience. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat in the heart of Tuscany. Just be prepared for a bit of an adventure on the way in!

Lovely rural spot
Giacomo was a great host - got in contact early and remained available whenever required. The house was lovely and quiet (although a v noisy and enthusiastic dog owners as sadly staying next door which made us get up a little earlier than expected some mornings) with the most amazing views. The house had everything we needed, although I think the lack of air conditioning in the bedrooms (although it is in the upstairs hall and living room) might make it pretty hot in high summer. We loved it as the location was excellent - close enough to make Lucca only a 15!minute drive but also close to the lovely Montecarlo, Pescia (for the supermarket) and stations to get to Florence and elsewhere. All in all a great stay and highly recommended.

Wow - Paradise in the hills
The photos and description of this villa do not do it justice. The location of this villa, just a few km from Pescia is set in the Tuscan countryside with amazing views. The villa is beautiful and very spacious and is kitted out beautifully with everything you will need. The grounds are lovely and the pool is in a great location with again amazing views. The owner met us on arrival and gave us a tour and was able to answer our immediate questions. Once there we received a WhatsApp every couple of days checking that everything was OK and Giocomo was able to answer any queries we had. We know he also attended daily and cleaned the pool but this was done before we got up and it was vey unobtrusive. Highly recommend this villa for anyone wanting a relaxing holiday in the heart of Tuscany - with Pisa and Florence both under 1 hour away.

Fantastic base for Florence and Pisa
This was a fantastic house that’s ideally based for trips around North West Tuscany. Florence is within an hour’s drive, Pisa about 45 minutes and Lucca less than 30 minutes. We parked in one of the car parks by the airport and from there, a train to the centre of Florence (parking cost €1)! We did the same when we went to Pisa. The house is fantastic! The kitchen is very well equipped with everything you’ll need - and more! The views were outstanding and the pool fabulous! The outside pizza oven is a must! The mosquitos loved it as much as we did, so bring plenty of repellent and ointments if you’re prone to bites. Giacomo was a wonderful host and contacted us regularly to check that everything was ok and if we wanted anything. We had a fantastic holiday in a superb house. Grazie Giacomo!

Beautiful house in fabulous location
Stunning views from all directions, including from the pool. A lovely, tranquil place, with easy access to all the main tourist attractions. Friendly and helpful family with good spoken and written English. The track to the house is very bumpy on an unmade road, but that is the only fault with this lovely house. We had a wonderful two weeks here. Thank you to Giacomo and family.

Fantastic view and great pool
We had a fantastic time at this beautiful villa. The photos don't do it justice. The view over the Tuscan hillside was breathtaking and the swimming pool was just fabulous. We enjoyed using both the bar-b-q and the Pizza oven. If staying here we would recommend a trip to Florence by catching the train at Pistoia. It cost 18 euros in total for our family of 4. Also head to MonteCarlo for a meal, It's a pretty village whose tower you will see lit at night on the hill opposite the villa. Just to mention, the road to the villa is just a dirt track on quite a steep hill and bring your insect repellent for the mosquitos, which are to be expected in the Italian countryside. In summary, We had a fabulous holiday. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful villa with us.

We had a great time in June 2019. The property is excellent , in the countryside but close enough to the Village if you need food or groceries. Giacomo was always available if we needed anything and cleaned the pool several times during the week( very early in the morning). We would recommend the property to anyone considering a stay in the Tuscany countryside.

Beautiful house in a great location, loved and managed by friendly, helpful hosts
This is a beautiful house, very well loved by the owners who were keen to share it with us. Inside it is spacious, cool and furnished to a very high standard. However, we spent most of the time outside, enjoying the stunning views from the pool and garden. There are various places to sit with plenty of shade and the pool is kept spotlessly clean. The pizza oven/barbeque house was a particular hit with the 4 teenagers travelling with us. The house provides an excellent base for exploring Tuscany, particularly Lucca and Pisa, although we found it hard to drag ourselves away from our tranquil surroundings. We would love to return and have no hesitation in recommending it to others wanting a relaxing stay on Tuscany.

Couldn't be better!
We (family of 5) stayed two weeks at this fabulous house near Lucca. The location is ideal for exploring the best of Tuscany. From the front yard you can see Lucca, Montecarlo (worth multiple visits to explore the amazing restaurant choices) Chianti and the lights of Florence. The house is beautifully kept and obviously a place loved by Franco and his family. The house has everything you need to be comfortable with the best thing after a hot day of exploring being the well kept pool with a panoramic view of the valley. Day or night, the peace and quiet provide an ideal setting to relax. Franco and his family look after the house, keep the grounds neat and tidy, clean the pool and are the consummate local source for where to find the best of everything. They clearly love this property and it shows. We cannot recommend this place highly enough and will be staying here again next tine we're in Tuscany.

Ein großartiger Aufenthalt in der Toskana!
Wir sind als vierköpfige Familie mit dem Auto angereist und haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen! Das auf einem großen Grundstück gelegene Haus ist einfach traumhaft, der Garten wunderschön, alles ist von Olivenhainen umgeben. Vom Grundstück aus hat man einen herrlichen Blick auf die Tiefebene. Das i-Tüpfelchen auf den Urlaub setzt dann der große Pool, toll gelegen etwas oberhalb des Hauses, zusammen mit einer weiteren schönen Terrasse, auf der wir gerne Zeit verbracht haben. Die Einrichtung des Hauses ist geschmackvoll und gemütlich, alles was man braucht ist vorhanden, alles ist sehr gepflegt und sauber. Im Endeffekt kann man sich bereits beim Ferienhaus eine tolle Zeit machen, aber natürlich bieten sich Ausflüge zu den bekannten Sehenswürdigkeiten der Toskana an. Die Stadt Lucca ist von hier aus gerade mal 20 Minuten mit dem Auto entfernt. Die Vermieter sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit, stets erreichbar, alles perfekt. Wir werden jederzeit gerne erneut in das Ferienhaus zurückkommen, sobald es wieder in die Toskana geht. Wir geben sechs von fünf Sternen!

Der perfekte Familienurlaub
PERFEKT!! Für einen Familienurlaub in der Toskana das perfekte Domizil. Das Haus und die Anlage sind 1000 % sauber und akurat gepflegt. Die bequemen Schlafzimmer mit Tageslichtbad und großer Dusche liegen oben. Unten ist die Küche und ein zweites großes Badezimmer, was bei 4 Personen echt hilft. Küche mit Kühlschrank und ausreichendem Gefrierfach zum Bevorraten. Der Außenbereich ist überragend. Direkt vor dem Haus ist eine schöne Terrasse mit Sitzecke, wo wir am Abend lange gesessen haben. Der Pool liegt leicht oberhalb und bietet eine sensationelle Aussicht über das Tal umgeben von einer weitläufigen Olivenbaumplantage. Der Pool selbst ist herrlich groß und top gepflegt. Er wird täglich früh morgens für die Gäste unbemerkt gesäubert. Dort ist auch eine schöne überdachte Sitzecke für die Schattenpausen. Durch die Weitläufigkeit der Anlage gibt es generell für jeden genug Rückzugsorte in Sonne und Schatten. Die Anfahrt zum Haus erfolgt über einen unbefestigten Weg bergab. Wir haben ihn mit dem Familienkombi gut bewältigt. Giacomo und Jessica sind die perfekten Gastgeber. Giacomo ist jederzeit über WhatsApp zu erreichen für Fragen zum Haus oder der Umgebung. Man kann sich super mit ihm in Englisch unterhalten. Jessica, seine Partnerin, hat uns super herzlich empfangen und das Haus erklärt. Ansonsten sind die Beiden nicht persönlich in Erscheinung getreten was wir äußerst angenehm empfanden da wir im Urlaub unter uns bleiben. Danke für den unvergesslichen Aufenthalt. Danke!!

Heerlijk verblijf in de Toscaanse heuvels
We hadden een fantastisch verblijf: het huis is tip-top in orde, goed uitgerust, ruim. Prachtig gelegen op een heuvel, nabij vele mooie stadjes (Collodi, Montecarlo, Pistoia en uiteraard Lucca en Pisa). Ook een uitstapje naar de zee en Firenze zijn perfect mogelijk. Heel vriendelijke eigenaars, die vlot bereikbaar zijn bij vragen en heel behulpzaam. Zelf pizza's bakken in de houtoven met de tips van Giacomo was een hoogtepunt van onze vakantie. We keren graag nog eens terug.
