Flexible Group Accommodation with Private Pool & Hot Tub. Beautiful views!
Ideal para familias numerosas o grupos de amigos que deseen pasar las vacaciones juntos mientras disfrutan de algo de espacio personal, esta propiedad se distribuye en dos casas vecinas que se alquilan exclusivamente a un mismo grupo.
Situada al borde de una pequeña aldea histórica sin servicios, el alojamiento puede recibir hasta 14 huéspedes en total y comprende:
Una casa rústica tradicional con 4 dormitorios y 2 baños
Una casa independiente renovada dividida en dos apartamentos modernos y autónomos:
Un apartamento de 2 dormitorios
Un apartamento de 1 dormitorio
Cada unidad cuenta con su propia sala de estar y cocina, lo que permite que familias más pequeñas o parejas dentro del grupo disfruten de independencia, mientras comparten las áreas exteriores y los espacios para comer.
Las dos casas están ubicadas cerca una de la otra y comparten las instalaciones exteriores. Un pequeño camino rural pasa entre los edificios, usado ocasionalmente por locales a pie, aunque el acceso vehicular es extremadamente raro.
Los huéspedes tienen uso exclusivo de:
Piscina privada con hermosas vistas
Dos logias cubiertas para comer al aire libre
Jacuzzi
Horno de leña para pizza/pan
Barbacoa y áreas de "cocina exterior"
Mesa de ping-pong
Jardín y campo (irregular) para que los niños jueguen
Estacionamiento

Hay varias zonas para comer al aire libre, incluida una cocina totalmente equipada bajo la logia de la casa, lo que permite que todo el grupo cocine y coma junto con facilidad.
Un poco sobre la zona: Situada en un entorno hermoso dentro de la región de Garfagnana en Toscana, la propiedad es ideal para quienes deseen relajarse o explorar las numerosas rutas de senderismo y caminos que atraviesan las montañas circundantes. La ciudad de mercado local de Castelnuovo di Garfagnana está a poco más de 5 minutos en coche y ofrece una buena selección de tiendas, bares, restaurantes y un mercado semanal. La popular ciudad medieval de Barga se encuentra aproximadamente a 20 minutos, mientras que la histórica ciudad amurallada de Lucca está a alrededor de 1 hora. Pisa, con su famosa torre inclinada, está a aproximadamente 1 hora y 15 minutos en coche, y Florencia se puede visitar en unas 2 horas. Las famosas Cuevas del Viento están a unos 40 minutos en coche, al igual que un parque de aventuras local que ofrece actividades como canyoning en ríos. Los lagos cercanos incluyen Gramolazzo, donde se puede nadar, y Vagli, con su pueblo sumergido y famoso tirolina. La Fortaleza de Verrucole es una atracción local popular con vistas impresionantes y actividades interactivas para niños. También cerca se encuentra el parque de escalada y tirolina Buffardello, adecuado para adultos y niños, donde se puede hacer un picnic y pasar el día a la sombra del bosque.
La verdadera belleza de esta zona radica en su impresionante paisaje montañoso, su ambiente tranquilo y la oportunidad de experimentar una parte de Toscana poco turística, con numerosos pequeños pueblos históricos que celebran fiestas locales durante los meses de verano.

Wir waren positiv überrascht. Der Weg zu der Unterkunft war atemberaubend, nur das hätte sich schon gelohnt hinzufahren. Die Aussicht von der Unterkunft war auch wunderschön. Die Unterkunft selbst war gut und wir konnten uns bequem aufteilen aber man verbringt den Aufenthalt sowieso meistens drausen. Es gibt viele Ausflugsmöglichkeiten.
Was mir gefehlt hat waren paar mehr Mülleimer, wir haben im Cottage auf drei Stockwerke nur einen gehabt.
Ich würde diese Unterkunft auf jedenfall noch mal mieten!!

Thank you for your review. We are glad you enjoyed your stay at this beautiful place. The owner has recently renovated with a brand new BBQ and wood oven area, and also an outdoor kitchen and he is now studying the possibility of a WC close to the pool too. Many guests like that the pool gets shady by late afternoon as they are fed up by the heat, but I fully understand. We hope you were able to continue to enjoy the sun at the second terrace which gets the sun until later. We hope to hear from you again.

Toller Pool und super Aussicht
Die Kommunikation mit der Agentur war hervorragend, es wurde bei allen Anliegen schnell und hilfreich reagiert. Auch unser Wunsch nach einer Abreise in der Nacht um den Rückreise-Stau am Samstag zu vermeiden, war kein Problem!
Das Haus selbst ist sehr schön und die Außenanlagen mit Pool (die Beleuchtung ist super!), überdachter Terrasse und Tischtennisplatte ideal, um den ganzen Tag hier zu verbringen. Auch einen separaten Bereich mit Grill- und Pizzaofen gibt es, überdacht mit Waschbecken - eine richtige Außenküche.
Die Lage in dem kleinen Ort oberhalb von Castelnuevo bringt eine tolle Aussicht mit sich. Die Zufahrtsstraßen sind schmal, aber der Bus fährt hier auch, also kein Problem. :-)
Einzige „Wermutstropfen“: Einige Nachbarn in der Umgebung haben Hunde, die leider sehr viel bellen in der Nacht. Und die Pfannen sind alle schon sehr in die Jahre gekommen und sollten ausgetauscht werden. Außerdem gibt es nur in zwei Schlafzimmern Fensterläden. Durch die Ost-Süd-Ausrichtung aller Zimmer ist es mit Sonnenaufgang sehr hell in den anderen Räumen, was dem Ausschlafen eher abträglich ist. ;-)
Die Zufahrt mitten durch den kleinen Ort ist mit größeren Autos durchaus manchmal Maßarbeit, aber machbar.
Alessandro ist sehr freundlich und hat uns Tomaten und Wein aus eigener Herstellung geschenkt. Leider kann er kein Englisch und wir kaum Italienisch - schade, dadurch waren die Gespräche immer sehr eingeschränkt.
Alles in allem ein toller Urlaub in einem hübschen Haus mit fantastischem Blick und genialem Pool!

Charmant rustikales Bauernhaus in ruhiger Berglage
Das Objekt entsprach vollumfänglich unseren Vorstellungen von Toskana, Bergregion und Entschleunigung. Neben dem großen und gepflegten Pool war als besonderes Highlight ein Pizzaofen mit angrenzender Grillstelle vorhanden, was beides gerne und intensiv genutzt wurde. Nach einer abendlichen Einführung durch den Hausherrn haben wir unsere ersten Erfahrungen als Pizzabäcker mit Erfolg unter Beweis stellen können. Das Anwesen liegt wunderbar eingebettet in die Natur mit Panoramablick auf die umliegenden Berge. Als besonderer Hinweis sei erwähnt, dass die Zufahrt bis zum Haus sehr schmal und steil ist.

Amazing pool with a view at the edge of the world (well, village…)
Gragnanella is a tiny village (~85 inhabitants) in the hills. The house is just outside the village, overlooking the valley and mountains. The biggest asset is the pool and terrace overlooking all of that. From Gragnanella, you can easily go into the mountains, to the sea, to Lucca, or just enjoy the surroundings themselves. The host Alessandro is super friendly and helpful. Greatly recommended!

Traumhafte Unterkunft am Ende des Dorfes
Wir waren super begeistert. Allesandro hat uns sehr nett in Empfang genommen. Die Unterkunft hatte alles was wir brauchten. Geschirr, Handtücher, Pool... alles war da! Das Haus ist das letzte auf der Route ins Dorf und wir sind mit unserem Familienauto auch super durchgekommen. Wer mit einem Größeren Transporter kommt, kann auch 3min zu Fuß vom Haus weg parken. Die Gasse wird dafür am Ende vielleicht etwas zu eng.
Ansonsten hat das Haus einen unfassbaren Charme und ist für die Toskana sicherlich normal. Wir haben es sehr genossen und danken Allesandro für seine Gastfreundschaft und das er sich so liebevoll um Gäste und sein Anwesen sorgt.
Der Pool hat an jeder Stelle die gleiche Tiefe. Ca. 1,40 Meter würde ich schätzen. Zum Schwimmen super geeignet. Für Familien mit Schwimmhilfe, aber auch super geeignet.

For future guests, please note that whilst Garfagnana is mountainous and away from it all, buses move daily and lorries regularly, so the roads are fine for all size cars. The market town of Castelnuovo with all you need is less than a 10 mins drive; Barga just 25 mins; San Romano and the tree climbining/zip wire park 20 mins; various good restaurants within a 15 min drive ; Lucca 1 hour as examples. We do provide a detailed information pack to get the best out of the area, and Gragnanella is actually a really good location for exploring the Garfagnana itself too .

You need to book this !!
The property is up in the hills with views down onto Castelnuovo. The village is quiet and quaint, and the property is right at the end, keep going when you get there, there’s a few twists and turns before you arrive. The pool area is beautiful and well maintained, plenty of sun beds and chairs to relax on. To the side of the property is parking for a few cars and a BBQ area, get there to catch the last bits of sun. The property itself is of a good size, consisting of a single room downstairs, handy for the less able, upstairs a further three rooms. Two with king size beds and a room with bunk beds. Bedding is supplied. Two shower rooms again one up and one down. The living room is comfortable with a large TV, we didn’t use this room much at all. Kitchen is well equipped and found it had plenty of staple items left over from previous guests.
Alessandro who owns the property lives nearby and visited us twice, his English is limited but we got by with some clever google translate. A true gent and a pleasure to speak to, we found him very helpful and nothing was too much for him.
The local area is beautiful, we didn’t see too much as the kids enjoyed the pool too much and so did we. Castelnuovo has a Conad
Supermarket, very well stocked and had everything we needed. Go to Gallicano for a larger Conad and diesel is so much cheaper here, up to 20c per litre.
Barga is well worth a visit, make sure you make the trip up to the Duomo Di S. Cristoforo, For some amazing views.
We visited the end of August 2019.
Thank you for a lovely stay and we would highly recommend booking.

We loved everything about this house. It feels genuine and the small village is really charming. Castelnouvo di Garfagnana is only 10 minutes away and is one of the best villages we have visited in Italy. The house is perfect for a big family and the pool is great. The view is amazining!

Schöner Blick von Pool und Veranda über das Tal des Serchio
Wir verbrachten im Sommer 2018 drei wunderschöne Wochen in dem Haus. Es liegt am Rande des kleinen Dorfes Garfagnella an einer steilen, schmalen Straße. Dahinter kommt nur noch der schöne und gepflegte Friedhof des Dorfes.
Das Bauernhaus ist alt, aber innen und außen renoviert. Luxus braucht man nicht zu erwarten, die Dielen knarzen und die Wände sind dünn. Die Fenster sind klein, so bleibt es im Haus auch bei Sommerhitze erträglich.
Auf der Veranda finden 6 bis 8 Personen gut Platz beim Essen, Spielen oder Lesen. Sie spendet Schatten und es geht immer ein leichter Luftzug. Die Pflanzen werden regelmäßig gewässert,
Der Pool ist groß, Alessandro sieht regelmäßig nach dem rechten. Hier gibt es eine weitere Sitzgelegenheit.
Um zur Veranda und zum Pool zu gelangen, muss man um das Haus herumgehen (der Hauseingang liegt zur Straße). Zwei Parkplätze sind vorhanden (reichen auch für drei Autos), Außerdem gibt es eine Schaukel und eine Tischtennisplatte, die wir im Juli wegen der Hitze leider nur selten nutzen konnten.
Die Ausstattung ist einfach und zweckmäßig. Es ist alles da, bei acht Personen kommt man aber an Grenzen. Wir haben Messer nachgekauft, weil die einfach immer in Benutzung waren, also immer gleich den Geschirrspüler befüllen.
Alles in allem ein schönes Haus, den besonderen Reiz macht die Lage mit dem wunderschönen Blick über das Tal.

Thank you for your review. We are glad you spent an enjoyable 3 weeks at this lovely location!
I am sorry you didn't find all the kitchen equipment but for the benefit of future guests, there is a cabinet in the kitchen with loads of cutlery in it for a few meals before needing to use the dishwasher. Other guests have mentioned this before, so I have asked the owner to point out where all the additional equipment is kept when guests arrive - hopefully he will remember to do so but if not, do ask.

Lovely stay, but ...
We had a fantastic time in Gragnanella, the house is cosy with a lot of space and the views are amazing. The garden and the pool, all good!
But, we did find some things unconvenient, little things, easy to do something about. For example, there were only one oven mitten, but only pots with two handles(gets hot on a gas stove), and there were no dish towel, and no proper knife for vegetables and such (luckily, we had brought all three). Also, forks were _exactly_ eight, knives and spoons a few more. Only two wine glasses, one with damaged foot. And no pasta fork (???)
On the more serious side was that one of the beds were unmade (that it didn't _get_ made is somewhat on us, because we didn't bother to tell), we did not get the promised weekly cleaning, and Allessandro one day filled up the pool so much that the skimmers didn't filtrate, so the pool was full of insects and we couldn't use it for one day. (He seemes rather busy. No english! But very friendly.)
Also, when we arrived there was only two, almost empty, toilet rolls (for eight people!) and no dishwasher tablets. I don't know if this should be bought by the guests, but it seems a bit strange.
Bring your own salt and pepper, oil and other spices, none of this was in the house. Oh, and the towels were teeny tiny, so bring towels for showering. The info did say no pool towels, but I translated that to "do not use house towels for swimming", not that there would only be tiny towels :-)
Do NOT buy botteled water! Behind the church there is a spring with delicious water, bring a water container and save the planet :-)

Thank you for your review. We are glad you had a good stay and rated the property as 4 stars.
We are sorry you didn't find all the items mentioned. We went to inspect immediately we got your review, and some of the items detailed were in fact at the property but those that were not (including more wine glasses and larger towels) were purchased immediately for the comfort of subsequent guests - thank you for raising. .
I am sorry you waited until you were home to raise these issues, since we are available all day every day to assist if there is anything missing in a property or any other problems (including communication if an owner has no English) and we would have ensured all the items missing were provided for you immediately.
The property is a self catering property and provided at a very good price, so as per the Essential information sheet we sent you, kitchen supplies such as dishwasher tablets are not always left although an initial supply of toilet roll is always included.
There was clearly a misunderstanding with the bed as all the beds were made up, but we were told that your group arrived with an additional guest who was not detailed on the booking form and there was no bed for them as the house is not advertised as sleeping more than 6 plus 2 . The owner was expecting 8 guests and 9 arrived...We understand the owner brought you an additional mattress, but had misunderstood that you bought your own linen for the unexpected guest. Again, we would have assisted with this issue if you had given us a quick call.
So far as a weekly clean is concerned, I am afraid this is my fault - when I sent the original quote I erroneously calculated that your stay was for 2 full weeks. For a pro rata cost stay of less than 2 weeks we only offer cleaning at additional cost on request. A free weekly change and clean is offered as a matter of course for 2 weeks. I do wish you had called me since I would have arranged an immediate clean due to my error.
Re the pool, we have never had an issue with this before - the owner is fully trained to clean the pool in accordance with health guidelines and a net is left for lifting insects between cleans. We have pool specialists on call for any pool problems guests may have...
Anyway we are glad you enjoyed your stay overall and thank you for raising the issues you did which has enabled us to rectify missing items immediately.

Authentic Italian house in stunning setting
The most outstanding thing about this property has to be the amazing expansive view over Garfagnana, and the beautiful area that surrounds it. The pool was clean and well maintained, overlooking a productive plot, that twinkled with fireflies at night. The house was authentic, and spacious, we especially loved the ancient door and key! The tiny village with its church's s bell tower was quiet and interesting to look around, though there is little there. Allesandro was welcoming and helpful, providing us with extra towels for the pool when requested, allowing us to stay an extra few hours on the day we left, and giving us homemade wine and cherries from the trees. Off the beaten track, yet close to Castlenouvo di Garfagnana for restaurants and shops , a beautiful town. Highly recommended

Thank you for your review. Good to hear you loved those amazing views and that you found the house to be authentic Tuscan, and that the area appealed too. Always wonderful to be in the area when there are firelies - just magical!
Thanks again, and hope to hear from you another time. Lorraine at tuscan-retreats

Beautiful cottage,with stunning views very tranquil in a small village but only 2 miles away from the town of Castle Nuvo with plenary of bars and restaurants but it still has a real community feel.I cannot fault this property or the area it's absolutely fabulous.

Cosy house with perfect views!
We were staying two families. The house is very cosy, it was enough space for our group of 6 persons. We could find everything we needed in villa. Amazing views to the mountains. Nice small Tuscan village with very friendly community.
We had an intensive program of travelling by car, so it was extremely nice to enjoy evening swim in a big pool.
Our host Alessandro was very attentive (thank you very much for help with our dinner in restaurant in Castelnuovo). We also were suggested a large plate of fresh figs and vegetables from the garden.
Would recommend this property for people who would like to enjoy calm stay as well as those who would like to have a comfortable base for visiting Northern Tuscany.
We travel a lot, and with our friends nominated this place as one of our best we have stayed in summer.

Great place for a relaxing Italian holiday
Nice stone villa with ample space for our large family (6 people). Great view of the surrounding hills and mountains, and a nice pool. The village is quite small, which means you have to drive a few km to shop, but on the other hand it's very quiet and peaceful.

Lovely rustic Italian villa set in the hills above market town. It is quiet location within a village with no local amenities, so driving to the market town (10 mins) necessary for anything. Lovely pool and house. We found it well equipped, bar a few more easy chairs in the lounge. Very friendly and helpful owner.
One thing to note, access to the pool is via front door around the property.
