Quaint traditional house with lovely pool and views of the hills
We had a great holiday here.The owner and host Fiona is half English and went out of her way to be helpful to our three generation family group. The house is not very modern - although bathrooms and kitchen are fine - and has a steep, narrow spiral staircase inside, with a traditional Tuscan outdoor staircase giving easier access to the bedrooms upstairs. The pool and garden are delightful, raised up with lovely views of the hills around Lucca. There is also a huge shaded outdoor dining table which we used all the time. No aircon, and we had above average temperatures in low 30s while we were there, so could get hot especially in bedrooms, but fans were provided and we could open windows shaded with shutters at cooler times. Fast (c.20 mins) 54 bus service to Lucca within 5 minutes walk every 40 minutes during the day - use the stop labelled Via del Brennero Circoscrizione - and less frequent E3 to Pisa (c.50 mins) from stop San Lorenzo Vaccoli. Both buses very cheap and reliable. Recommend dowloading the Autolinee Toscane app for timetables, directions and liveupdates. We absolutely loved Lucca, and there is lots to see and do there. Good transport connections to other places.
