Lovely Villa with stunning views of the area and wildlife. Easy drives to Pisa and Lucca with also closer medieval villages to explore. We loved Barga and its restaurants and Castelnuovo Di Garfagnana . Villa is a lovely traditional villa that is well equipped and spacious. Has everything you need. True that the Road to the villa is windy and narrow but managed to drive our SUV hire car up to the villa without difficulty as there are plenty of passing places. Pool and surrounding clean and pleasant with plenty of shade if needed. Hosts very friendly and helpful.

Great place

We stayed in the house for a few weeks with friends and children and our dog. The property is well maintained, kitchen has everything you need, rooms are clean. There is enough space for two families. The view is beautiful and the pool area is proper. The owners communicate promptly and are responsive to requests. We loved our stay, it was really great experience! Thank you!

Wonderful holiday

A Perfect Tuscan EscapeWe had a truly memorable stay at this beautiful villa in Tuscany. It was perfectly suited to our family, with spacious and well-appointed bedrooms and bathrooms that made for a very comfortable base. The outdoor spaces were particularly impressive—plenty of room to relax, read, or simply enjoy the peace, with several little sun traps, offering a new favorite spot every few hours.The pool was clean, well-maintained, and ideal for cooling off after the various activities we discovered through Friends of Tuscany including mountain biking, wine tasting, trips to various towns and villages and a wonderful lady who came to the villa to teach us to make ravioli and cook for us. A major positive is the view. Looking out across the valley was like watching a living painting. As the sun moved through the sky, shadows flowed across the tree-covered hills and revealed different details of the villages and buildings tucked into the mountainsides. It was endlessly beautiful, and we often found ourselves just sitting and watching it change.A truly special place to unwind and enjoy the magic of Tuscany.

Fantastic villa in beautiful rural location

We had a wonderful holiday at Villa Oliva, is located in the beautiful and peaceful town of Campo in the Garfagnana region. The house is spacious and so well equipped although there is no Aircon. The fans provided helped on the hot nights. Cristina left us a welcome basket with lots of local produce which was delightful. The pool was loved by the kids and the villa was surrounded by lots of local produce which we were allowed to eat such as grapes, olives, herbs and fruit. The view from the villa across the hills was breath taking and enjoyed at every opportunity. We visited lots of fabulous towns such as Lucca, Gallicano, Pisa, Castelnuovo & even went to the beach for the day at Livorno. The only downside was the number of midgie bites we got which isn't the fault of the villa or owners. it was just an inconvenience and irritation. We would highly recommend this property to others and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay there.

Wonderful house with outstanding view

We stayed one week in Villa Oliva and experience was fantastic. House is located in the middle of olive trees with oustandibg view over valley. Kitchen was well equipped and it had enough berooms for our needs (four). Pool was great to have because ”coldest” day during our stay was 32. You can easily do a day trip to Lucca, Pisa and Florance from here so location is quite central in case you want to see some great cities of Tuscany. Extra credit for good restaurant recommendations, easy check-in/-out process and great hosts. I would recommend reading guidance how to drive to the house carefully. I trusted navigator and Google obviously does not take into account that road has to be wider than 130 cm to be drivable with car . So read the information you’ll receive before coming to the house to avoid unpleasent surprises.

Traumhaftes Anwesen in den intalienischen Bergen

Die gesamte Anlage und das Anwesen sind mit viel Liebe zum Detail gepflegt. Im Haus selbst hat uns als kleine Reisegruppe an nichts gefehlt. Begrüßt wurden wir sogar mit einem kleinen italienischen Speisekorb und selbstgemachten Olivenöl. So kommt man doch gerne in Italien an. ;) Die Anreise über z.T. Kleine und sehr enge Straßen bzw. Wege ist etwas anspruchsvoll, aber man gewöhnt sich auch hier schnell daran. Das Haus ist für entspannte Pooltage bestens geeignet, der Pool bietet viel Schattenplätze drum herum und beim Tischtennis kann man sich ausreichend auspowern und im Pool danach direkt abkühlen. Abends ein absolutes Muss!….auf der Terrasse den einmaligen Ausblick genießen. Die Eigentümer kümmern sich schnell um alle Anliegen und berücksichtigen voll und ganz die Privatsphäre. Hier als Beispiel die Poolreinigung oder Müllentsorgung, welche vor 8 Uhr morgens bereits erledigt wurde. Ein kleiner Vebesserungspunkt wäre der Insektenschutz im Obergeschoss, hier sollte eine ähnliche Lösung wie im Erdgeschoss angebracht werden. Aber das ist auch mit Insektensteckern zu kompensieren (welche übrigens auch gestellt wurden). Alles in allem würden wir jederzeit wieder in dieser Unterkunft buchen. Vielen Dank für die tollen Tage!

Wonderfull place

wonderful stay. more extensive and more beautiful than on the pictures. very nice owner who likes to think along and also provides interim cleaning. They also take care of the mid-weekly removal of the garbage. Very hospitable. Beautiful surroundings. Only thing that is good to know: there were a lot of mosquitoes in our time. The road to Campo is also very tight at certain points for a large car. We had to fold the mirrors. But we get us .to get through, but we got used to it.

Schönes Haus mit fantastischem Ausblick

Aufenthalt mit 4 Erwachsenen und 2 Kindern, viel Platz im Haus, Küche gut ausgestattet, Möglichkeiten zum Essen drinnen und draußen, prima Grill - alles, was benötigt wird, ist vorhanden. Ansprechpartnerin Vorort ist sehr nett und hilfsbereit, wenn es mal etwas zu klären gibt. Toller Pool mit Liegen und extra Handtüchern und Sonnenschirmen. Highlight ist der Ausblick von der Terasse vor dem Haus - ein Traum! Umgebung mit Barga und Castelnuovo sehr schön, aber eher ruhiger, Lucca in knapp 1h erreichbar, Pisa etwa 15 min weiter. Großer Supermarkt in Gallicano (15 min Fahrzeit) mit allem, was man so braucht in großer Auswahl. Die letzten Meter Anfahrt zum Haus sind sehr steil (15-20%) und die Durchfahrt ist tatsächlich eng. Ein Auto mit einer Breite von 2,08 m (bei ausgeklappten Spiegeln) passt soeben durch, dann muss man aber auch genau "treffen". Fazit: Ein toller Urlaub, wir würden wiederkommen.

Tolle Aussicht und alles was es braucht

Wir waren mit zwei Familien in der Villa Olivi. Die Anfahrt ist wirklich nichts für sehr große Autos, aber dafür wird man mit einem herrlichen Blick belohnt. Die Gastgeber sind sehr nett und im Haus fehlt es wirklich an nichts! Bei unserem Aufenthalt war es noch recht kalt und vielleicht waren wir in diesem Jahr die ersten Gäste. Deshalb hat es ziemlich lang gedauert, bis es im Haus annehmbar warm war und der Wintermuff verflogen war. Aber der Kamin und Pelletofen haben dabei sehr gut geholfen!
