'La Lucertola Holiday Homes, Pisa' House 2-Pool Views LEANING TOWER Pisa & Lucca

Thank you Joel, thank you everybody. We really enjoyed your company and were delighted to see you make such creative use of La Lucertola. You are always welcome back

Liz et al were great guests! They were cheerful, friendly, outgoing and their enthusiasm was infectious! The house and external areas were left spotlessly clean and tidy and I most highly recommend this happy and warm group of people to other hosts. Thank you so much for choosing to stay at La Lucertola and it would be wonderful to welcome you back in the future.....maybe for longer next time! Grazie Mille!

I would like to thank this guest for leaving such an honest review. However, I feel that it raises a number of issues that deserve a fair response: 1) The Road: a) The wording describing the road is very emotive and is a personal opinion. There are indeed 5 bends up to the houses, but provided that the driver takes the bends good and wide, there is plenty of room to come round with relative ease. The last two bends up to the house do require a manoeuvre, but again, provided that the driver takes the bends wide then the manoeuvre is not difficult to perform. b) The road is quite steep but if the driver comes up in first gear and takes it easy, it should not present too much of a problem. We would always recommend a manual drive, rather than an automatic not only for the road up to the houses, but for many of the roads in Tuscany as a manual is easier to control. c) We are on GoogleMaps as 'La Lucertola' where the road can be seen very clearly 2) The Mattress - This is the first time that this has ever been mentioned to us, either face to face or in a review. If the mattress requires changing then we have no problem replacing it. 3) The bath linen - This is an eco-friendly self-catering offering and not a hotel or a bed & breakfast. We provide both bed and bath linen to every guest and there is a washing machine in the house (with cleaning and washing products provided), which, of course our guests are more than welcome to use. For guests staying for more than a week there is a fresh change of linen (both bath and bed) for every week of their stay. We feel this to be the most sensible and environmentally responsible solution. 4) After dark check-in - We would always recommend to our guests or indeed to anyone, to try to arrive in a new, unknown place in the countryside during daylight hours. Sometimes, of course, this is not possible, but nevertheless, the road is totally acceptable with main head-beams switched on.

Dear Scott, Carole & kids, Thank you so much for your kind words and positive recommendation! we are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay here at La Lucertola and appreciated its special beauty! Thank you for leaving the house so spotless and tidy. It was a real pleasure to meet you and we wish you all the very best and hope to see you back here again some day! Cari saluti Luisa and Colin
