Villa with own pool, mountain village with restaurant and shop. North of Lucca



Casa Laura is set in the medieval village of Sillico, 700 metres above sea level in the Garfagnana valley, north of Lucca. This spacious villa offers not only comfortable accommodation but spectacular panoramic views of the valley, Apuan Alps and Appeninne mountains.

The villa is our home for a proportion of the year and is decorated and furnished in a blend of modern and traditional styles. We want you to feel at home even when you are away.

The villa and swimming pool is for the sole use of the family or party that have booked it.

An ideal location choice for either a holiday, a workcation or a flexcation stay. Please contact us for monthly discounts. We are happy to alter the accommodation layout to accommodate any work space requirements.

The Garfagnana has an enormous amount to offer anyone who enjoys the outdoors. Whether it's cycling and mountain biking, hiking, horse riding, canyoning, spending the day amoungst the trees on a rope course or crossing the valley on a slip wire. The areas' diverse natural enviroment is well suited to a wide range of outdoor activities.

Casa Laura's accommodation is divided over two floors. On the ground floor you have a lounge and study area complete with free WIFI unlimited internet access, a kitchen with dining area, bathroom and the twin bedroom.

The kitchen is spacious and well equipped with a five ring gas cooker and seating for 6.

Upstairs are two double bedrooms and a bathroom.

The large terrace is accessible from the first floor and provides a convivial area for al fresco dining and general relaxing.

The house also includes a wood burning pizza oven and off street parking for two cars.

A complimentary mid stay clean is available upon request.

If your holiday dates aren't being accepted by the system please contact me. I may be able to accommodate them.

The village benefits from having a combined popular restaurant, small shop and bar. There are well stocked supermarkets, independant shops, bars and a choice of restaurants a short drive away in Pieve Fosciana.

A perfect base to discover the popular destinations of Lucca, Barga, Pisa, Florence and Siena either by car or by train from Castelnuovo di Garfagnana. The Ferrari museum and race track at Maranello and the World Heritage site, Le Cinque Terra also make great days out. Seven walking paths start and finish in Sillico, enabling you enjoy, relax and emerse yourself in the natural beauty of the countryside. L'Orrido di Botri, a natural gorge and La Grotta del Vento are also worth a visit.

We live a short distance away and are on hand as much or as little as required. We always try to welcome our guests upon arrival and settle you in. Our reviews give an unbiased judgement and truthfull picture of our villa and the surrounding area.

A local tourist tax of 1 euro per person over the age of 14, for a max of 5 nights is payable upon arrival, in cash.

Holiday

We stayed ten nights at Casa Laura and had a lovely time. The weather was mixed but that didn’t matter. Beautiful walks signposted from the village were great for exploring the amazing Chestnut Woods. The views and sunsets were stunning. A great peaceful house in a beautiful village, high in the mountains. Yvonne was nearby if you needed anything. .

A perfect spot for a relaxing vacation

The six of us had a wonderful stay in this beautiful place perched on a Tuscany hilltop. The house is well equipped, clean and comfortable, and the nearby village restaurant/bar/grocery shop is very convenient and friendly. We enjoyed relaxing on the terrace, hiking nearby, and doing occasional day trips to Pisa and Lucca. The kids loved the pool, and we tried out making pizzas in the outside oven. Yvonne was a wonderful host - she helped out when our arrival plans became unexpectedly complicated, was available to answer questions and give recommendations, and made us feel very welcome.

Wonderfull stay at Casa Laura.

Our family of 5(Wife, daughter, son in law and grandson) have just spent a wonderful, relaxing 10 days in this terrific house. The house is located at the top of a mountain, beside a medieval village (Silico) and it has the most amazing views out onto the Tuscan alps. Sunset with a whisky just beating early morning. It is well maintained, clean and Yvonne was on hand to welcome us, ensure we settled in comfortably and provide lots of information on things to do. We used the house as our base, while we visited Pisa, Barga and many local villages. We also visited Levanto on the Cinque Terre(Amazing, as reccomended by Yvonne)On other days, we relaxed by the pool and took walks around the village, our favourite being no 3. We really enjoyed the pool and used it daily, to cool down from the heat. We would recommend this house for families and people who are looking to have a relaxing stay in beautiful location. We were lucky enough to experience the Dinner provided by the locals in the village piazza. Thanks Yvonne and Delfo for taking care of us.

Beautiful villa, fabulous views, relaxing stay

We had a smashing week here. The villa is well equipped and beautifully furnished. The outside space is particularly good, we spent most of our time there. Very hot during our stay but with the shutters the house stays lovely and cool so no problem sleeping at night. Pizza oven was great fun! Hosts were available if required but very unabtrusive..

Idyllic mountain break

We stayed here at the end of our holiday for a week with our three children aged 7,9,11. We all had space to unwind, played in the pool, went for walks and enjoyed the local area. Thank you to Yvonne and Delfo who were the perfect hosts being there only when we needed then. The house is very well equipped with everything that you need to make your stay as relaxing as possible. Thank you for making our time in Italy so special and memorable for all the right reasons.

Summer holiday paradise

We really loved the house, swim pool and area. A lot of hikes possible from te house. Visits to Lucca, Pisa, Florence etc all duable although keep in account you first need to descend the mountain which will take you around 15-20 minutes. A lot of animals in the area too, so if you drive back in late evening you might spot boars, deers, foxes and we even saw some cows. The owner is very friendly, kind and helpful in all ways. We loved to bake our own pizzas in the pizza oven. We were lucky we could enjoy the yearly medical festival of the village Sillico, which is a lovely village and they have a nice restaurant which is also selling bread, cheese, meet (almost every day). Supermarktes in the village downhill, one coop a bit expensive, the other next to each much cheaper and has good quality too.

toller Ort zum Entspannen

Nach einer Sightseeing-Woche haben wir uns ganz bewusst für dieses tolle Ferienhaus abgeschieden in den Bergen entschieden. Mit dem phantastischen und sauberen Pool und dem sehr gepflegten Garten ist dies der ideale Ort zum Entspannen. Die Kommunikation mit Yvonne war vor der Anreise und während des Aufenthaltes perfekt. Sie hat uns tolle Tipps gegeben und war jederziet ansprechbar. Das Haus mit den beiden Bädern war sauber und ordentlich, sodass wir uns sehr wohl gefühlt haben. Ein paar Meter nebenan ist ein Restaurant mit einem Laden, in dem man auch alles für den täglichen Bedarf bekommt, ohne gleich in den Ort runter fahren zu müssen. Vielen Dank für den schönen Aufenthalt, Yvonne!

Individual holiday at high level

Overall, the accommodation is very well equipped. For example, the kitchen equipment leaves nothing to be desired, even for ambitious cooking activities (e.g. the large 5-burner gas stove). This is not a house "just made up for a few summer guests" but a fully furnished permanent residence. The friendly landlady takes care of her guests in advance and is always easily accessible during the stay (if neccessary). The location of the house offers a fantastic view to the sun set behind the distant mountains. The small village of Sillico is very picturesque, quiet and in no way overcrowded with tourists. Ideal for a quiet individual holiday at a high level (of altitude as well as of residence standard).

Wir verbrachten hier eine wunderbare Osterwoche in der Toskana. Das Haus hat Charme und bietet alles, was man sich zum Entspannen und Urlaub machen wünschen kann. Die Lage des Gebäudes bietet einen wunderschönen Blick ins Tal. Des Weiteren befinden sich das sehenswerte Bergdorf Sillico sowie idyllische Wanderpfade in der Nähe.

Wir haben unsere Woche in Sillico sehr genossen. Yvonne war als Gastgeberin sehr zuvorkommend, hilfsbereit und dabei ganz unaufdringlich. Zum Haus selber: Die Außenanlage ist traumhaft. Innen ist es bodenständig eingerichtet mit viel Platz und allem was man für den Alltag braucht. Wenn man einen Verbesserungsvorschlag finden will, dann maximal, dass das Küchenequipment etwas zusammengewürfelt / genutzt ist. Ansonsten fällt uns hier wirklich nichts Negatives ein. Wir und unser Hund haben hier rundum wohl gefühlt. Die Lage ist super zum Wandern und das einzige Restaurant direkt nebenan können wir auch empfehlen, wenn man gut, bodenständig Essen will. Alles in allem würden wir das Ferienhaus definitiv weiterempfehlen.

Gorgeous holidays in Sillico

Our big family with 4 kids aged between 9 and 18 really enjoyed the stay in Sillico at this nicely maintained and furnished house. Despite the hottest week of the year the thick walls kept the heat out of the house. The sheltered terrace with the pool near by was our most preferred place to be after beautiful walks and hikes in the mountains.any nice walks and hikes start next to the house. The pizza oven worked very well and was easy to operate. The magnificent view across the valley is deeply impressive which one can also be admired from the pool. All in all it was a terrific time.

unser schönster aufenthalt in italien - il nostro più bel soggiorno in italia

Wir (3 Erwachsene, 1 Kind, 1 kleiner Hund) haben Ende Juli/Anfang August drei wundervolle Wochen in Sillico verbracht. Den bisherigen Beschreibungen können wir zu 100% zustimmen. Das Haus ist sehr schön, vollständig eingerichtet (Spülmaschine!), die Schlafzimmer im OG haben einen traumhaften Blick über das Tal. Die Zufahrt nach Sillico auf 700m von Pieve (350m) dauert ca. 15 Minuten und ist auch mit großem Auto unproblematisch. Parkmöglichkeiten auf dem Grundstück sind vorhanden. Die Vermieterin wohnt ca. 5 Minuten entfernt und hilft wenn man Hilfe benötigt. Frische Handtücher und Laken werden wöchentlich gebracht. Trotz Hochsommer und Hitze in halb Europa war das Klima absolut angenehm. 25-30 Grad sind normal; die Nächte sind erholsam kühl. Eine Klimatisierung ist nicht erforderlich. Wanderwege im schattigen Wald beginnen direkt hinter dem Haus. Florenz (ca. 2h), das Meer (ca. 1,5h) und Lucca (1h) sind gut erreichbar. Es war unser erholsamster Urlaub. Wir haben uns super wohl gefühlt und buchen wieder. Danke
