Outstanding villa in a perfect location in Tuscany
We had a fabulous time in this luxurious villa. The property is huge giving each family member their own space to relax. The bedrooms were spacious with very comfortable mattresses and plenty of bathrooms. Each room had an incredible view of the Tuscany countryside. The villa is surrounded by a vineyard and olive trees with the relaxing sound of birds every morning. The kitchen has just been renovated and has all of the utensils you need to feed a large family. The swimming pool is large and was the perfect temperature for swimming / playing. The jacuzzi is beautifully situated under a vine with a wonderful view to relax in the evenings. Pisa, Lucca and Florence are a short car journey away to visit. There are over 50 vineyards and villa’s to visit close by. I would recommend a trip up the mountain as the views of Tuscany are spectacular. A large super market is only 10minutes away (Esselunga).
The owner (Elisa) was so friendly and helpful. She was easily contactable and very eager to ensure we had a good time. We had the pleasure to enjoy the olive oil, jam and wine made on the property. They were outstanding. We are most grateful to Elisa and we definitely visit again in the future. This villa is perfectly situated to explore Tuscany and would highly recommend.

Peaceful and lots of space
We loved Il Gobbo! We spent 3 weeks at house with 2 other couples, which was perfect. We all had our own part of the house. They have lots of beautiful dishes, glasses for an elegant dinner at large dining room. Elisa was so helpful with information about house, area and gave us great places to go visit. She set up tour of where they press the olives. We had a simple problem with dryer, and it was fixed same day. The outdoor area is great, I loved having my coffee at 16-foot outdoor table, looking at the beautiful view of Lucca. They helped setup chef to cook at house several times. The pool was a little cold to get into but after a few laps it was refreshing. Next time we go it will be with all our children and grandkids. Thank you, Loretta, Mario and Elisa,

What a fantastic property
From the minute Elisa contacted us with directions until we left she could not have been more helpful - we loved the house, everything had been considered and we were all so impressed - the views are amazing, the pool is great, the kitchen so well stocked with every utensil you could need. The electric lawnmower gave us a surprise on the first night but we grew to like watching him do his rounds! My only reservation is letting anyone else know how fantastic this property is and not being able to book again! Thank you Elisa - we had a great holiday.

Fantastic farmhouse in the Tuscan hills
We stayed for 10 days with extended family. Gorgeous views, wonderful modern kitchen, private saltwater pool, wonderful amenities for family vacations. A pool, a soccer field, swings, a small playhouse for kids and a lawnmower robot that kept the grass down. Best of all, there was AC in every bedroom since it was extremely hot. Highly recommend the place.

Wonderful 3 generation family holiday
Elisa was a very welcoming and helpful host. Non intrusive but available if needed. The highlights of Il Gobbo for our family group of 10 were the fabulous swimming pool with hot tub jacuzzi and the very large modern kitchen. The remainder of the house is traditional which we like. There are good restaurants and pizza places nearby and the bar in the village a short walk away makes you welcome.

Dream come true in Tuscany
We had the most amazing dream come true vacation at this beautiful villa! The Villa is absolutely gorgeous, spacious, clean, and charming. We were a group of 8 adults and 2 kids. Everyone was thrilled with it. Elisa was wonderful and so helpful. She organized a chefs dinner for us and massages at the Villa. They were both phenomenal. Our only complaint was that we did not have long enough there and didn’t want to leave! We can’t wait to go back and the olive oil is also delicious!

I love this place!
Always sceptical about pictures on a website but on arrival the villa proved itself and more so. Amazing new kitchen, close to the outside dining table. The pool is fab and the jacuzzi, which of course we never said we’d use, was lovely, with a view to die for. All the bedrooms were fantastic, bathrooms too and the air con a god send at times.
The decor is traditional (which we liked) and the lovely new kitchen is a great addition. Well stocked with all you could need.
The owners always replied quickly to any questions and were helpful with questions about the local areas.
Would I go again? 100%! Make sure you buy their olive oil, wine and, if you like onions, they’re chutney too…

Wonderful
We had a wonderful experience in this fabulous home. Our stay exceeded all of our expectations. Our children loved the pool, hot tub, and the farm animals (horse, donkey, pony, ducks and chickens). Bedrooms and bathrooms were plentiful and comfortable for our group of 10. The pool is amazing with a salt water system and lots of lounges for sunbathing. The peace and quiet of the grounds allow you to hear the songbirds singing all day. The brand new air conditioned kitchen has everything we needed. It's huge, modern and has a large, comfortable table with seating for at least 12 people. We truly enjoyed cooking all together in this excellent space. Our hostesses, Elisa and Loretta, were gracious and very helpful. We arrived without food. Elisa drove two of us to the supermarket to shop for supplies on the evening we arrived so that we would have enough food for our entire stay. Overall, this is an exceptional vacation experience for larger groups and gets a five star rating from our family!!!

Amazing property
We stayed 12 days in August, 3 families with 6 kids. The property is well taken care of, with large space for kids to play in total safety. Nice view on the surrounding hills, very quiet at night.
We all had comfortable rooms with effective A/C, and private space for everyone; kitchen well equipped with a large refrigerator and freezer.
Elisa, the owners' daughter, is very friendly and always available from check-in to suggestions on restaurants and sightseeing.
The swimming pool is safely fenced, in pristine conditions, sea water, plenty of sitting space and a large hot tub we used more than expected.
A nearby little farm belongs to the family as well, the kids could visit anytime.
Summary: For a family (group) vacation, would definitely recommend.

Canadian women touring Tuscany
We were a group of 7 women touring Tuscany and spent a week at Il Gobbo and loved every minute of our stay. The villa was roomy, spotless, extremely well equipped both in the kitchen and bathrooms. The linens were plentiful and of good quality and the beds very comfortable. Our hosts were attentive to any of our wants or needs. Loretta was prompt with answering questions before our arrival, while her children Elisa and Mario were very helpful and quick to respond to any questions we had once we were there. The fridge was stocked with their own prosecco and a pizza on our arrival and a bottle of Elisa's delicious internationally recognized olive oil was available for us to sample. The family was very warm and gracious and we are so grateful to have met them. The weather was warm in early October so we enjoyed the pool area and the hot tub which were both well maintained. A car is necessary as it is a 15 min drive to Lucca, but the roads from the villa are beautiful for walking and exploring the village fairly close by. I highly recommend Il Gobbo and would love to return.

Casa immensa e dotata di ogni confort, compresa piscina idromassaggio riscaldata per 4/5 persone vicino alla piscina (fatto bagno anche nella piscina fredda!!), attrezzature per la cucina disponibili in quantità, idem per asciugamani, coperte, lenzuola e cuscini!! Spazio cucina molto ampio e confortevole. Fantastico camino con lunga tavolata per i giochi da tavolo e angolo divani molto sfruttato dai bambini!!
