A True Tuscan Dream – Unforgettable Stay!

Our stay at this stunning Tuscan villa was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the perfect location, nestled among expansive gardens, vineyards, olive trees, and the most beautiful roses. It felt like stepping into a postcard.

Teresa, our host, was absolutely incredible – warm, welcoming, and genuinely passionate about making our stay unforgettable. She is not only a gracious host but also a phenomenal cook! Every meal she prepared was a delight, made even more special by the fact that she used fresh produce from her own garden and vineyards. You can truly taste the love and care in everything she serves.

The villa itself had every amenity we could possibly need and was comfortable, charming, and full of character. The atmosphere was so peaceful, and every corner of the property offered something beautiful to take in.

We can’t recommend this place highly enough. Whether you’re after relaxation, incredible food, or an authentic Tuscan experience, this villa has it all. Huge thank you to Teresa and her amazing team – you made our stay truly unforgettable. We’ll be dreaming of this place until we return!

This place was magical. As soon as we arrived and saw the house and the property we decided to prolong our stay for one more day (and we would stay even longer if we could). The house is amazing, has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms. We were 2 families with 4 children aged 8 - 12. The pool was a hit with them even though the water was quite cold but it did get warmer every day (we were lucky to have a very nice weather for this time of year - end of April/beginning of May). The hosts (Theresa, Paco, Diego) were also amazing. Even though the "pool season" starts on 10th May, they filled it on our request. The day we arrived they prepared traditional tuscany dishes for us and there was so much food we couldn't eat it all. They also sell their own products, olive oil, wine, vino santo, cantuccini... The location was perfect for us as we wanted to stay in one place and drive each day to visit places such as Lucca, Pisa, Florence, Sienna... We would definitely recommend this property!

La Piaggia is a spacious, comfortable villa that is full of rustic charm. Teresa and her son were very welcoming and checked that everything was ok on a regular basis. Teresa cooked food for us one night and it was amazing. The villa is well located for getting to Pisa, Florence, Cinqe Terre and the beaches at Viareggio. The nearby village of Montecarlo is lovely for an evening out. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at La Piaggia.

Restaurant Osteria Martinelli in Marginone was fabulous and only a 15 min walk away. We enjoyed a couple of evening out in Montecarlo which is a short drive away and Teresa can arrange a taxi if required.

Ein wundervolles altes Bauernhaus mit großzügigen Räumen und einem traumhaften Außengelände. Der Pool war die Rettung für uns an heißen Tagen. Teresa ist die Seele des Anwesens und mit ihrer freundlichen und herzlichen Art, ein großer Schatz. Bei technischen Problemen sorgte sie zügig für deren Reparatur und sie hat uns mehrfach mit ihren Kochkünsten den Urlaub auch kulinarisch unvergesslich werden lassen.

Teresa ist das beste Restaurant. Ausflüge nach Lucca, Montecarlo, Florenz, Pisa und Siena sind gut zu machen. Ein besonderer Höhepunkt war uns "Riverplay" https://maps.app.goo.gl/8P1Z1PdoUpFEJmLq7 Sehr zu empfehlen.

Największym mankamentem była czystość (kurz po kątach, w zasłonach itd., stare sprzęty np. video w szafie i wiele innych). Czyste były ręczniki, pościele, podłogi, basen i to pozwoliło cieszyć się pobytem. Plusem była ilość przestrzeni dla 8 osób, osoba witająca przekąskami i pomidorami z ogrodu, miła okolica (cicha, na uboczu).

Super fijn verblijf omringd door mooie tuinen. We hebben ervan genoten. De sleutelbewaarder Teresa was zeer vriendelijk en gastvrij. Ze heeft ons een paar keer verrast met lekker eten en lekkere wijn.

We zijn in Pisa, Lucca, Florence en Siena en het leuke kleine plaatsje Montecarlo geweest waar we ook lekker gegeten hebben.

Een heerlijke ontspannen vakantie op een goed onderhouden landgoed in Toscane met een heerlijk zwembad.
De eigenaresse was erg gastvrij en heeft ons regelmatig verrast met olijfolie, tomatensaus, groenten van eigen bodem en heerlijke lasagna. De slaapkamers waren in stijl ingericht en de woonkamer en keuken waren wat rommelig ingericht, maar dat is een kwestie van smaak. De veranda bij het huis was heerlijk!

La Piaggia bevind zich op een mooie plek om diverse plaatsen in Toscane te gaan zien. Montecarlo vonden wij als typisch Italiaans dorp erg leuk.

Wir glaubten, auf der Insel der Seligen angekommen zu sein. Das Rosarium unterhalb des Hauses war im Mai in der Hochblüte, Rosen überall auf dem Grundstück. Oberhalb des Hauses der Pool, umgeben von einem Olivenhain, dahinter hohe alte Eichen. Aus dem Fenster nach Westen sah man über die Hügel des Apennin auf die steil aufragenden Berge der Apuanischen Alpen, traumhaft. Nachts herrschte Stille.
Die Krönung war die überwältigende Gastfreundschaft Teresas und Ihrer Familie, sie brachte uns häufig gute Dinge zu essen, wie z.B. Ribollita, Bruschetta, Lasagne, Tiramisu und sehr guten Wein.
Unser Hund liebte vor allem die Hollywoodschaukel.

We had an amazing week at La Piaggia! Teresa and her family were wonderful, welcoming hosts. We were greeted with wine from the vineyards and homemade food. The countryside around the villa is beautiful. Wish I was still there!

Teresa’s food and wine! There is also a restaurant opposite called Il Fornello and a great pasticceria called Mimosa.

Super freundliche und herzliche Vermieter, tolle Atmosphäre, sehr schöne Möbel, alles im klassischen toskanischen Stil, sauberer Pool

Besuche der Städte Lucca und Florenz, aber auch kleiner Örtchen wie Collodi oder Montecarlo Fornello als in der Nähe liegendes Restaurant hatte eine sehr gute Karte und ein gutes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis

The place was lovely, just as described. The key holder and her family live in an adjoining area and really look after the gardens and pool. They also cooked us dinner a couple of times and we’re absolutely delightful.

Down the road is Fattoria il poggio, a vineyard restaurant that is lovely and great value for money.

We had a fantastic time at La Piaggia. Being in the middle of a farm with fresh produce, vines and olive trees all around was an amazing experience for all of us. We also enjoyed so much eating in the garden, having family pingpong contests and dipping in the pool every afternoon.
We were so fortunate to have Teresa's dinner twice in the house ( we actually regretted that we didn't ask her for more times). Her dinner was by far the best we experienced from all the places we went to over our stay and is highly recommended! She and her family are very warm and hospitable people and made us feel very welcome and comfortable during our stay. All in all, we very much recommend a stay at La Piaggia!

Lovely location amongst beautiful gardens and with great hosts. House very liveable and nice outside dining space. Pool in separate garden works well - would be particularly good for small kids. Teresa and her team run the Agri-tourist business behind the house and often pop round with tasty Tuscany traditional dishes.

Rail station down the road made visiting Luca, Florence and Pisa easy. Great butcher in nearby (walking) village with good sister general store. And a great pasticceria for coffee and pastries nearby in the other direction.

Wij hebben een heerlijke vakantie gehad.
Geweldige ligging van het huis. Heerlijk rustig en een Prachtige tuin en mooie uitzichten.

Wij hebben heerlijk genoten van de kookkunsten van Therese op la Piaggia. Ook hebben we genoten van de kookworkshop van Tamara. De wijnproeverij bij el Teso is ook een aanrader. Luca is een leuke stad om te bezichtigen. En een dagje aan het strand bij Livorno is ook een aanrader.
