Reviews
The two owners were very friendly and accommodating. In addition
to the welcome pack, there was a basket with fresh vegetables from
their own garden and pastries. Since the children enjoyed the pool
so much, there was even an air mattress and various toys for the
pool and garden. The communication with Loraine in advance
regarding the organisation was also exemplary. The descriptions and
pictures here keep what they promise and the price-performance
ratio fits. We had a very nice and relaxing holiday with two
children. Many thanks again ...

Very nice, typical Tuscan house with a covered patio, large
garden with olive trees and a spacious pool in a quiet location.
The landlords were extremely accommodating and nice. We would come
back anytime.

Great house for family vacation. Everything is well-kept, especially the garden (fenced) and pool (salt water). The view is great. Great location in the very fertile Garfagnana. The hosts Antonio and Paola are very nice and dog-friendly. Several times a week there were fresh vegetables from Antonio's own cultivation! The pizza oven is great too! We had relaxed days.
