A little about the area

Tenuta la Quercia is situated just 650 m from an ancient traditional Italian mountain village which has a bar and shop, which is ideal for essentials and sitting with a drink taking in local life. They will also cook for you at the bar with notice, which is a nice idea for lunch when you are having days at home.

The property is also less than 5 minute drive (over the river!) from the larger village of Piazza al Serchio with all facilities including traditional shops, supermarket and Tuesday morning market when the small village really comes alive. There are also some bars, a couple of restaurants a river and a train station for easy exploring.

Whilst in the depths of the countryside, the house is well located for exploring the local market town of Catselnuovo which is a 20 minute drive, the gorgeous and popular mediaeval town of Barga which is a 35 minute drive and the stunning walled mediaeval city of Lucca which is say 1 hour and 10 minutes away. Pisa, with its leaning tower is a 90 minute drive, and one can visit Florence in 2 hours. The famous Wind Caves are a 45 minute drive.

Closer to home there are plenty of little historic villages to visit, many of which have local festas in the summer. There are also the lakes of Gramalazzo, Vagli (with its hidden village submerged by the water) and Pontecosi, and some guests love to swim in the river. Francesca is also ideally located for visiting the local Fortress at Verrucole which is a good afternoon out, with stunning views and some interactive activities for the children. Also close by is the Buffardello tree climbing and zip wire park (ideal for both adults and children of all ages with a variety of runs) where one can take a picnic and spend the entire day in the welcome shade of the forest.

The real beauty of this area is the dramatic mountain scenery, and the hundreds of hilltop villages to explore, endless picnicking opportunities, and the pure peace of a non touristy holiday ......

Mountain Retreat
This is an excellent holiday property. You climb up to it via hairpin bends so take your time and just let the locals pass you in thier Fiat Pandas. The house is a few hunded metres out of village and such a tranquil spot. I almost dont want to give a god review to stop this place becoming to booked up for my next visit but that would be selfish. On the first morning when you throw open the french doors and sit and take in the views you will know you made the right choice. The hosts pop along each morning and clean the pool for you. We used to sunbathe in or by the pool until afterlunch then go and exploreintbe afternoon. We went through the mountains to the coast and beach watching the sun go down whilst standing on the pier. Then drove to lucca for supper. One afternoon we visited pisa and paid for parking near to the tower. One afternoon we did bagni de lucca and barga We also watched the sun go down and casting wonderful sun light over the mountain and trees at lake gramalazzo before eating in a taverna. We walked up to the fortess and then recovered whilst drinking lovelly cold drinks and trying to work out how some one drove thier Fiat panda up a parked outside the gates. In summary as long as you are confident driving on the wrong side of the road dont hesitate and book this house you will not be dissapointed.

Very good communication from the owners before and throughout our stay. The property is very well equipped and we really enjoyed the pool area and garden. This is a more rural part of Tuscany, but Lucca, Pisa and Florence etc can be reached by car, or car and train. A lovely place to stay.

Week in Tuscany
We stayed here in August 2022 (2 adults and 2 children aged 5 and 3). The villa is newly renovated, spotlessly clean, and in a location that offered us complete quiet; the views of the mountains were absolutely stunning. We enjoyed the pool each day, as well as the opportunity to dine outside and use the firepit each evening. 100% recommend.

Wonderful hosts. Clean and lovely villa. Stunning views. The local shop has basics and the bar is friendly and welcoming. A car is essential. The local restaurants and larger shop are about 10 minutes drive. We had a lovely and relaxing holiday and we all enjoyed the pool.

Traumhaft erholsamer Urlaub
Wir haben uns im Haus von Marinella und ihrer Familie sehr wohl gefühlt. Es sind herzliche Vermieter, die zu jeder Zeit erreichbar sind, falls man ein Anliegen hat. Ebenfalls zu empfehlen ist der leckere Rotwein, den der Vermieter herstellt. Das Haus ist gemütlich eingerichtet und das große Grundstück mit Pool ist ideal zum Entspannen, zumal der Wald auch direkt daneben ist. Da das Haus außerhalb liegt, braucht man ein Auto. Das sollte aber niemanden abhalten, in diesem wundervollen und wenig turistischen Ort Urlaub zu machen. Wir können das Haus von Marinella und ihrer Familie nur empfehlen. Wir hatten einen absolut entspannten und erholsamen Urlaub. Vielen Dank für alles!

Wir waren mit unseren 2 Hunden in diesem wunderschönen Anwesen. Das ganze Haus ist sehr gepflegt und wirklich extrem sauber, das haben wir sehr geschätzt! Der Garten ist gross, mit frischen Blumen, und einem sehr gepflegten, grossen Pool, der jeden Morgen gereinigt wird. Wir wurden sehr herzlich empfangen. Dieser Ort strahlt eine mega Ruhe aus, mit einem grossartigem Blick auf die Berge. Der Garten ist wirklich so gross wie auf den Bildern, und bis auf 2 Zugänge beim Haus komplett umzäunt. Wir können dieses Haus sehr empfehlen! Vielen Dank für die liebevolle Gastfreundschaft und den feinen Wein.

Nous avons passé une semaine fantastique ! La maison offre tout ce qu’il faut pour se détendre : on se sent comme chez soi dans une maison de famille. Il n’y a pas de superflus ce qui est très reposant. Que dire des propriétaires : ils sont absolument parfait quand on est en vacances a l’étranger, à l’écoute, disponible, d’une gentillesse extrême. Encore un grand merci à vous 😉

Skønt hus med lækker pool i et utroligt skønt område, med flot natur og hyggelige landsbyer. Alt hvad man behøver er i huset. Meget venligt værtspar, der hver dag sørger for rengøring af pool, og evt. Ting der skal ordnes. Klart et sted vi skal besøge igen.

Wunderschöner Urlaub
Wir wurden herzlich von der Gastgeber Familie am Ferienhaus empfangen und auch wieder verabschiedet. Marienella und ihre Kinder haben alles sehr liebevoll vorbereitet. Das Ferienhaus ist einfach ausgestattet, aber alles was man braucht ist vorhanden. Die Küche ist neu. Unser Bett war sehr bequem und der Blick von da aus in die Berge so schön. So sauber haben wir selten ein Ferienhaus vorgefunden. Der Garten war ein Traum für uns und unseren Vierbeiner. Es gab verschiedene Sitzgelegenheiten und Orte zum Verweilen. Der Garten ist, wie man auf den Bildern sehen kann, wirklich so riesig. Bei schönem Wetter kann man herrlich an dem tollen Pool verweilen. Dieser wurde jeden Morgen gereinigt. Das nächste Dorf ist fußläufig zu erreichen. Dort gibt es ein kleines Bistro, was von Maria geführt wird. Das Essen dort ist einfach super lecker und auf jeden Fall zu empfehlen. Zum Einkaufen muss man dann allerdings doch in den nächsten Ort fahren, ca 10 Minuten mit dem Auto. Die Familie war jederzeit erreichbar und hat geholfen. Eine kleine Anmerkung, was man vielleicht wissen sollte... Maria hatte zu unserer Urlaubszeit nicht jeden Tag geöffnet und auch erst ab 20:00 Uhr. Der riesige Garten ist mit einem hohen Zaun ausbruchsicher eingezäunt. Zwei Zugänge zum Haus sind allerdings frei, da könnten Vierbeiner doch abhauen. Ein Auto ist zwingend erforderlich. Wir würden das Ferienhaus zu 100% weiterempfehlen.

Incredible Garden, Peace and Silence
We loved our stay at the house. It was extremely clean and the lovely owners put a lot of thought in every detail. The kitchen is very well equipped and there is even an outside fire place and BBQ. You can walk 10 minutes to a small coffee shop/bar with cold snacks and a kiosk included for basic needs. A bigger grocery store, Camporgiano Train Station, and some restaurants are a 10 minute drive by car. The communication with the owners was really good and super kind. We would love to come back again and thank you for the wine!
