  Villa Pennechio is a fabulous property, centrally located near many places, such as Pisa, Lucca, Viareggio beaches (a must)! The grounds are beautiful, the neighborhood true Tuscany with its old well preserved architecture. The home is cozy, and the air conditioned rooms are quite pleasant. Stefania is a wonderful host! My husband accidentally left a large sum of $$ in one of the bedroom drawers and she and her housekeeper made sure to get in touch with us to wire it back! Thank you soooo much for that! You won't go wrong at this villa! It has everything you need!

  Recommended for: Girls getaway, families with young children, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, families with teenagers.

  Anyone looking for an idyllic place in Tuscany would not go wrong in staying at this holiday villa. We were there for two weeks and we enjoyed it immensely. From the moment the owner took us to the villa we felt that we were at home. The lovely decorated villa with three bedrooms and two bathrooms was the right size and had very thing we needed for our stay. From the fully equip kitchen with it's big marble top table. To the comfortable living room with sofa and two chairs and a lovely wood burning fireplace. Stefania is a lovely person and made us feel most welcome. She also went out of her way to find us an internet point a short drive from the villa as we did not have a laptop to use with the wi-fi she has set up in the villa. The grounds of the villa with it's swimming pool, flowering roses and grove of olive trees was very lovely. And from the master bedroom beautiful views of the Tuscan countryside. The location was ideal for being near Florence, Lucca, Pisa, Siena and the beach. I would not hesitate to go back there again. It made our holiday.

  We stayed 5 beautiful weeks in this charming holiday house just outside Lucca. The house itself is a typical old-style Tuscan house, with olive threes and a great view of Lucca. But at the same time it is very clean and modern as well. We stayed at the house with our 7 months old baby, and it was a very good place for us to stay - quiet and peacefull. It is several nice trips nearby the house, within 10 min drive it is even possible to visit several great wineyards - which we enjoyed very much. Stefania (the owner) is very helpfull, and she even brought our dog to the veterinar (thank you)! We are missing the slow-life of Tuscany and Lucca, and hopefully we will be able to return to this house some time in the future.

  This was an excellent vacation spot for a family. I traveled with my son, daughter-in-law, and 3 and 7 year old. The fenced-in property was ideal for the children. Exploring the Lucca area and meeting realatives, we found our village ideal. Although small, we were quite comfortable; we cooked our own meal frequently and found the place more than adequately supplied with all we needed. Stefania, the owner, was charming, generous with her help and information, and a valuable resource. I have already recommended this home to other "Luchesse" friends.

  Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, families with young children.

  After a week of sight-seeing in Rome this villa near Lucca was exactly what we needed. Having never been to Italy, we were not familiar with the area/region but after a week and a half here we decided it was the perfect Tuscan location; day trips to Florence, Sienna and Pisa (not to mention others). It is close to the coast, close to shopping, close to vineyards and even cooking classes. The villa was exactly as Stefania, the owner, has advertised it; everything worked perfectly and we did not have any problems with anything in the house. Also, to note the owner was extremely accommodating and available to us during our entire stay, which was important to us b/c we were traveling with our 3 small children. The villa sits on almost an acre of land so there is plenty of room to exercise, lounge by the pool in the afternoon sun, or watch your kids climb olive trees. Out time spent here was unforgettable and we have already talked about returning with our parents for a holiday!

  Villa "Pennechio" is a great place for a family with school age children: a large garden with a pool, enough rooms inside a house and a good location to visit towns, mountains and sea side by car. The owner Stefania is most kind and helpful. She gave us any information we asked. Also, she arranged us an unforgettable, tasty 7 course supper in the villa "Pennecchio" by asking for two professional cooks to come to cook for us. Thanks Paola and Anna! The stay in villa Pennechio was one of the best accommodations we have ever had in Italy.

  We couldn't have asked for a better place to spend a week in the region. The villa was excellent, as advertised, and well-kept. The grounds are relaxing and beautiful. The covered pergala is a great place to relax and watch the sun set. The location is perfect for day trips to Pisa, Lucca, Cinque Terre and even Florence. There are several excellent dining experiences within 10-15 minutes of the villa. The villa owner was very accommodating, and even arranged for a professional chef to come to the villa and cook us a wonderful dinner (highy recommended). We would definitely recommend this property to others who want a relaxing, strategic location in the Tuscany region.

  We loved our Villa. Pool,gardens and home were professionally kept. Close to Pisa,Florence and Cinque Terre. Stefania (who lives nearby) was friendly and very helpful with concerns. Tuscan candlelit evenings in the gazebo were magical. Very comfortable for 2 couples. Would happily stay at this villa again.

  The villa is beautiful, clean and well kept. I loved the historical building and the grounds. It's not a place to say without a car as you are in the country, not near stores or restaurants. Stefania is charming, warm and helpful. She lives near the Villa and is helpful with your needs. She's someone you want to be friends with forever. My only recommendation is getting to the villa. Our flight was late so we arrived when it was dark and couldn't find the home with the directions that come on the website. I would recommend that the owner write the directions more clearly and have her meet you at a specified location on the main road, driving you to the home. We didn't have a GPS with us.

  Good accommodation, exactly as described, in a great location. The garden really is huge and the pool above average size for a private property. Well-equipped both outside - sunbeds etc - and inside - plenty of kitchen utensils, crockery etc. Perfect for visiting Lucca, Florence and the Versilian beaches. A real highlight for us was the very grand aristocratic Luccan villas and gardens, all within a 10 minute drive, which are open to the public and absolutely stunning. Stefania is extremely professional and did everything to ensure that we were happy - thank you!
