Biagioni-Lagacci Station holiday lettings

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at La Casina della Rose. Consuelo is a fantastic host, very friendly and responsive and not at all intrusive. The house was spotless and had everything we needed. It was unusually hot (high thirties every day) when we were there, and we were grateful to have the air conditioning and the pool. The drive up the hill to the house is not for the faint hearted and Consuelo kindly offered for us to call her from the bottom of the hill to check that no one else was on their way down.We definitely recommend stopping off at a supermarket on the way from the airport. Consuelo kindly sent us details for the big Esselunga supermarket just by the motorway exit in Pistoia. From there it is around 20-25 minutes to the house.Despite the hot weather, we enjoyed trips to Pistoia, Lucca, Florence and Montecantini.

We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 week stay a 6Stanco. Ruth is an excellent host, providing us with lots of advice both before and during our stay. The appartment is very comfortable and well equipped. Stanco is a small village but the local shop in Grizzana is well stocked and larger supermarkets are available in nearby towns. Both Florence and Bologna can be visited from the local train station, with rail fares making it a cheaper option than driving. There are a couple of restaurants within walking distance. We only visited Nel Castagneto where we had excellent lunches and wine.Definitely recommend visiting this area of Italy

Terra Rossa is a great apartment to use as a base for exploring this fabulous but lesser visited area of North Tuscany. The apartment was perfect for our party of four with everything we needed for our 6 night stay. Kitchen area is small but well equipped. The terrace is a sun trap and great for early evening drinks. Location is quiet and on street parking was never a problem.It is a short walk down into Bagni di Lucca where there are all the amenities you need. The Conad supermarket is very well stocked. We ate in La Lira and Circolo dei Forestieri. The latter is particularly good and very reasonably priced for the quality of the food and local wine.There is lots to see in the area. We visited some amazing small hill top towns and villages where we were often the only tourists around. Lucchio, Montefegatesi, Barga and Trassilico were particularly lovely. Not all the villages have restaurants, but it is really worth making sure you get to eat in Rifugio La Mesta in Trassilico.Lucca and Pisa are more major towns within an hour's drive.Would very happily return to Terra Rossa in the future. Highly recommended.

Loved & cared for by owners. Rina & Bruno went beyond the call of duty to ensure we enjoyed our stay. Help with a punctured tyre on arrival set their high standard of care. We never tired of the wonderful views from the house, the birdsong, the scents pf wild flowers and the ambience of the ancient village. The 15 minute drive down a steep & winding road may challenge a less experienced driver. We loved the local markets and the thermal baths in Bagni di Lucca and walking in the mountains. Lucca and its music was a joy. We plan to return.

This was a joyful holiday stay. The apartment is spacious enough for two. And extremely well equipped. The location was delightful and surrounded by olive trees. The owner made the stay even better by being friendly, but not constantly 'checking on us'. There was the added bonus of the owner's dog wanting to sit with us while we sipped Tuscan wine in the shade in the afternoon. He wasn't 'in the way' he just wanted to be around humans. :-) The ONLY negative I can say is that the road up to the house is a very Tuscan mountain switchback road... and we'd rented a small SUV which was a tad 'tight' in spots. :-)

We had a superb 3 weeks as guests of Steve and Denise in the hills above Bagni Di Lucca. Everything was perfect, couldn’t ask for more.

We had a very good stay at the house. The location is excellent with wonderful perspectives across the deeply forested hills. The facilities were very good, made all the better with the help of the house-keeper, Roberta, who lives nearby. We would recommend the property and location.

So simple and enjoyable
