Garfagnana greatness

5 of us had a wonderful stay. The pictures don't do it justice; the views over this beautiful part of Tuscany are amazing and the property / its facilities are superbly designed and finished to a very high quality. The outdoor spaces aren't overlooked at all and the interior provided a welcome relief from the heat. Good walks from the property too. Oh and very few mosquitos! Patricia was at the property during our stay and was very discrete. She booked us into the local restaurant and made excellent recommendations about things to do in the local area. The food and drink (in the supermarkets and restaurants) was consistently excellent quality and low price.

Fantastic

We were able to enjoy a beautiful house with a swimming pool for a week with 6 adults. Enough space for everyone. You spend almost the entire week upstairs by the pool, where there is a kitchen with plates, cutlery, glasses, a refrigerator and even pans. What a pleasure to have your breakfast there in the morning, swim during the day and eat and play a game in the late evening. The swimming pool is kept well clean and was lovely. Environment is beautiful. Ordered pizza twice from Il Grotto and ate at the large table in the outdoor kitchen. Had a delicious meal at Il Grotto itself once. Patricia and Geir are there if you need them (thanks to Patricia for taking the photos) and for good advice on what to do in the area. We enjoyed staying there.

Relaxing holiday

The villa is lovely with very comfy beds and good showers. The pool and views are stunning. The owners live onsite and were friendly and unobtrusive. We had a great, and very relaxing holiday.

Dream vacation in Tuscany

We spent 10 days in this uniquely beautiful villa with our two sons and had a fantastic holiday with the wonderful hosts Patricia and Geir. The absolute highlight is the pool with the outdoor kitchen and a fantastic view of the mountains. Within walking distance is a pizzeria / gelateria / grocery store where you can find everything you need for your daily needs and eat very well. The location is great for day trips. So we were in Pisa, Lucca, on the beach near Viareggio and also explored the nearby mountains, mountain lakes, caves and fortresses. We can also highly recommend renting an e-mountain bike. This allows you to explore the beautiful surroundings. We liked it so much that we are already planning another holiday in this villa…

A dream...

Patricia and Geir are super-hosts and the house with the pool and the outdoor-kitchen is a dream! Viletta is an cosy small village with a little shop (inklusice a good gelateria). The restaurant "il Grotto" is great. No chi-chi-food, just fine handmade italian food, good wines and a great view over the valley. The area is very hilly and green. There are no busloads of tourists swarming all over the countryside. So you will find a wonderful place for relaxing holidays. You can do some nice trips from Viletta to Lucca, Pisa, Firenze or Cinqueterre - but to the south of the toscany (Siena, San Gimiagno, Bolgehri) you might "endure" some longer rides. But who cares - if the house and the hosts are that good as here. And why travel so far, if you can find nice little towns like Bargha nearby. Thank you for a great time!

Perfect Tuscan Escape!

My family of four (2 teen sons) stayed at this beautiful property in June. It is a perfect base for exploring Garfagnana by car and the property is delightful. There are 2 great restaurants within a 3-4 minute walk. The hosts are so welcoming and accomodating; it was a great overall experience. The management company sent great information about the area ahead of time (which was super helpful.) Although a little tricky to initially locate the property, it is easily accessible once you know where you are going. This was our first trip to Tuscany. I hope to stay here (same property) again!

Wonderful holiday
I would highly recommend this property for a holiday. The property itself was ideal. It was of a very high standard. The location was perfect. We could walk to the local restaurant which had lovely food and friendly staff. There are lots of things to see locally and you could use the train to go further afield. The proprietors were wonderful. They were very informative and made us feel very welcome. We will definitely come back to this villa again. We cannot recommend highly enough Miriam and Charles

Fantastic house in a fantastic location!

5 stars

Wonderfully located house with a unique view over the valley to the Alpi Apuane. The house is tastefully decorated and very clean, as is the entire complex. The pool with the outdoor kitchen was the focus of our stay. The landlady was very friendly, always available and had good tips for excursions and regional Tuscan cuisine in the area. The place offers everything you need: restaurant, bar, and a small shop. We really enjoyed the time and can only recommend the property! Especially for someone who wants to spend their vacation away from tourism.

Housing and housing are top notch. Please note that this place is a "treat" and it certainly is. All facilities are 100% and you feel really welcome in the house and the small town. Can only be recommended. We also send a happy thought to the landlord for very friendly reception, openness and not least to make it possible to visit their little gem! Regards Henrik & fam.
