A large and beautiful house in the magnificent Garfagnana
region. We were 13 people staying in the house and everyone was
very happy. When we checked in, a thunderstorm had knocked out the
power, but the very helpful host Gabriele arranged for a generator
so we got the electricity back. Thank you! The village of
Camporgiano is about a kilometer away and offers some nice
restaurants, shops, and cafés. One disappointment was that the
trains from the village weren't running as promised, as we had
planned several day trips by train. However, we did take a bus to
the beautiful city of Lucca. Overall, it was a wonderful holiday
week in a fantastic house!

We had a wonderful holiday in this great house. We - 2 couples
in our 60s - used to go on holiday with our children. Now our 5
children and their partners - all in their 30s - wanted to go on
another holiday like this.
So we ended up with 12 people in this great house in the middle of
the mountains around Camporgiano. The owner Gabriele gave us a warm
welcome and was always available for us.
He made us feel welcome right from the start. The house has a great
layout, perfectly suited - 2 parts of the house with 4 rooms each
and a total of 6 bathrooms.
We particularly enjoyed the huge pool. There is also a stone-built
pizza oven in the garden where we baked homemade pizza. Mega!
The surrounding area is beautiful and the small bars are perfect
for breakfast, aperitifs and dinner. We had a great time. The house
is absolutely recommendable. Mille grazie Gabriele.

We spent 1 week with our friends (4 families; 8 adults and
9 children) in the house (actually 2 semi-detached houses) for 1
week at Pentecost. The property is quite large and so you can
easily retire with a book.
The pool offers enough space for young and old. The pizza/bread
oven was a highlight for us and it was a lot of fun to use it. (A
little tip: you can buy firewood in the garden center next to the
Carrefour Express in Camporgiano).
On site we were greeted very friendly by the landlord and the
contact was uncomplicated and very hospitable. A small circular
path runs west from the house, which is worth a short walk. Here
you have another great view of the beautiful landscape. We were
lucky enough to be able to watch the fireflies here after sunset.
There were an unbelievable number of fireflies (June/July is the
mating season), it was a spectacular spectacle. Lucca and Pisa are
definitely suitable for some sightseeing with a little driving
time. All in all it was a successful holiday in an impressive
landscape and a cozy house.
Great holiday with family and friends
