Maison chaleureuse au cœur des montagnes , au calme avec superbe vue dégagée
Arrivée tardive en pleine nuit et un peu déstabilisé par le chemin rocailleux pour joindre la maison Nous conseillons d arriver de jour si possible pour trouver facilement .Passé ce moment de stress pour trouver la location se trouvant au bout d un chemin de 800 mètres , nous avons aimé la maison pour son charme et sa situation .Nous étions deux couples avec 3 grands enfants qui ont adoré la superbe piscine. Maison typique très ancienne , avec une terrasse ombragée très agréable un peu isolée mais dans un cadre magnifique. Equipement ancien , au confort moyen mais comme il a fait très beau nous étions toujours sur la terrasse ou à la piscine. Propriétaire très sympa , très cool et disponible, pas de prise de tête . Le ménage n était pas fait beaucoup de poussière mais Brunello le propriétaire nous a proposé aussitôt de nous envoyer quelqu un pour le faire. Possibilité de se servir dans le potager et le verger. Pour les courses se rendre à 15 minutes en voiture mais le village propose une épicerie bien fournie et très pratiques. De nombreux villages magnifiques sont à proximité , nous recommandons cette maison pour des vacances au cœur de la nature et d une région magnifique. Prévoir deux bonnes heures de routes pour Florence, 50 minutes de Lucques. Les routes sont assez sinueuses donc il faut l intégrer dans les temps de parcours, voiture indispensable. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié notre séjour , première visite en Italie et toujours très bien accueilli par les commerçants .
