The Villa is simply stunning and even nicer than the photographs portray. The accommodation is gorgeous and extremely well appointed and maintained. The pool area, gardens (including vegetables to pick), boule court, bbq and pizza oven were all fabulous and really enhanced the whole experience. The views are quite amazing and genuinely breathtaking, whilst the local village is quaint and interesting! We had a fantastic stay and can’t wait to visit again! Thank you!!

Our family stayed in this beautiful villa in the mountains of Tuscany in July 2024. The villa fully lived up to the description and even more. The villa is well arranged and equipped with everything you need. The surroundings are absolutely unique. The terrace and pool area invite to cozy gatherings, and the view over the mountains is breathtaking. With access to the kitchen garden you can prepare dinner with fresh ingredients, and the pizza oven offers the opportunity to make pizza in true Italian style. A car is necessary because of the distance to shopping and other amenities. All communication with the landlord was easy, and the way we were received at the villa was good and informative.

We were two families (4 adults and 4 children). On arrival we were warmly welcomed by Louise. After a brief tour of the house, our holiday was ready to begin. We really enjoyed everything about the house, the location and the surroundings! Everything just looks so lovely and peaceful. The equipment of the house, especially the kitchen, left nothing to be desired. Our barbecue-loving men also got their money's worth. 😄 The pool is gorgeous and has an unusual shape inside. Even the little ones can splash around in the elongated entrance area. The one thing that was certainly an exception was the cleanliness in the corners. We spotted some things here and there. In general, it's a beautiful house (inside and outside) in the middle of a wonderful area!

Great way to appreciate the breathtaking views and amenities of this lovely property. We were 2 families (4 adults 4 teenagers) and had such a wonderful time. If you remember only one comment from me, it’s that, the pictures don’t do it justice.

The property and home is amazing. The views are stunning, the pool is perfect, and the kitchen - wow THE KITCHEN! We are a family who loves to cook and everything about the kitchen, wood fire pizza oven, and grill is fantastic. The bedrooms and bathrooms are roomy and comfortable. The location was great for day trips to Lucca and Vernazza and Pontremoli. The garden is beautiful and we picked our own veggies (zucchini, rosemary, basil, sage, cherries, green peppers, lettuce...). Fireflies in the olive groves were magical. On the owner's recommendation, we had Chef Kate come for a night and it was phenomenal. Rent this house if want to have a beautiful week in the North of Tuscany.

The pictures don't do this villa justice. It is more beautiful than the listing! Everything was just as described, and perfect for our group (6 adults and 1 young child). We used the pool every day, and the outdoor pizza oven made for a fun pizza-making night. The garden was wonderful, and we picked zucchini and lettuce each night for our salad. The hosts were great, and very helpful, from making recommendations on wineries to visit, to restaurants and other activities. They even offered to help us find AdBlue when our rental car got stuck (!). The town is lovely, and there are a few places to eat, however, if you are looking for more shops or activities and events, it is a bit of a further drive away. We would highly recommend staying here and hope to return one day! Thank you to Sonia and Louise!

Wow! The only thing better than the views is the amazing villa and host Louise.

We've stayed in some lovely villas in the past but the attention to detail that Louise has put into renovating these villas is second to none. From the welcome food and drinks supplied to the well stocked kitchen utensil cupboards, there is nothing you will be without. That's just on the inside, the outside is simply stunning. The pool is crystal clear, well cleaned and maintained. The views from the terrace down the valley are spectacula. Thank you for a lovely stay Louise.

Outstanding holiday house and host

Outstanding holiday house and host

We had an amazing holiday in an outstanding house with a fantastic view over the hills around Licciana Nardi. The house and the surroundings did meet all our expectations basen on the pictures and description (and they were high). There are only positive things to say about the host. Since our booking the host did communicate regularly both about options on the holiday but also about the development in Covid-19 in Italy and she did always respond very fast. You did really feel welcome and I can only give me strongest recommendation to this house

Très belle villa aménagée avec beaucoup de goût. Éventuellement à rajouter un meuble de rangement dans les chambres comme par exemple une petite commode et une table basse au salon pour poser les verres. Si non tout est impeccable. Nous avons fait un très beau séjour.

Ein Paradies

Ein Paradies

Nach einer abenteuerlichen Anreise gelangten wir mit unserer Familie an dieses sagenhafte Grundstück, bebaut mit einer zauberhaften Villa, einen großartigen Pool und einer traumhaften Aussicht. Wir befanden die Zimmer allesamt als sehr modern und geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Obwohl die Tagestemperaturen immer über 30° C lagen, benötigten wir die Klimaanlage nicht. Auf der Terrasse verbrachten wir alle Mahlzeiten, wobei einige der Zutaten aus dem liebevoll angelegten Gemüsegarten stammten. Die Poollandschaft lud zum Entspannen und Spaß haben ein. Wir hatten eine wundervolle Zeit und wir wurden gerne wiederkommen. Vielen Dank für die tollen Kontakt, auch während der angespannten Coronazeit.

Tolle Villa an wunderschöner ruhiger Lage mit traumhaftem grossen Pool (10x5m +Flachwasserzone 2x3m)

Sehr saubere und gepflegte Villa inmitten einer riesigen Gartenfläche, umgeben von Oliven- und diversen Obstbäumen, Lavendel- und Rosmarinrabatten und als Highlight ein grosser mediteraner Gemüsegarten zur freien Verfügung. Dazu kommt noch ein grosser Holzpizzaofen sowie ein riesiger Gasgrill im Freien. Für Hobbyköche ein Paradies. Die geräumige Küche ist voll ausgestattet inkl. trinkbarem Quellwasser ab Wasserhahn oder Foodcenter (inkl Eiswürfelmaschine). Die Zimmer sind allesamt schön eingerichtet und 3 von 4 mit Dusche oder Bad en Suite. Alle Geräte im Haus sind top (Klimaanlagen, Waschmaschine/Trockner, Kaffemaschine usw.) und der Staff überaus freundlich und hilfsbereit. Allen voran die Betreuerin und Hausbesitzerin Louise, die zusammen mit ihrem Mann einen unvergleichlichen Service bietet: sehr schnelle und freundliche Kommunikation während des Buchungsvorganges sowie während des gesamten Aufenthaltes, sehr ausführliche Infomationen zu Anreise, Sehenswürdigkeiten, Haus und vieles mehr, warmherzige und hilfsbereite Betreuung während des gesamten Aufenthaltes. Wir konnten jederzeit mit Fragen,Problemen oder Anliegen an sie gelangen und es wurde alles innert kürzester Frist erledigt. An diesem sehr ruhigen Ort, der etwas abseits liegt, kann man sich wirklich erholen, mit Blick auf die malerische von Wäldern überzogene Bergwelt. Auch die "Nachbarn", welche sich direkt dahinter in einer eigenen Ferienvilla befinden, sind kaum störend, da die beiden Pool- und Liegebereiche voneinander abgewandt sind. Wir würden jederzeit wieder hierher kommen.

Wir hatten einen fantastischen Urlaub in der Villa Braja. Es fehlte an nichts. Das Haus, sowie die Terasse sind wunderschön eingerichtet, mit viel Liebe zum Detail. Der Vintagestil hat uns sehr gut gefallen, es passte alles zusammen.Der Poolbereich und die Gartenanlagen waren ideal zum Entspannen und passten durch die liebevoll angelegten Pflanzen und kleinen Wegen rund ums Haus perfekt in die Natur.Louise stand immer mit tollen Tipps zur Verfügung. Hatten wir mal eine Frage, kam sofort die Antwort !!! Sehr, sehr nette Vermieter !!! Wir können die Villa zu 100% weiter empfehlen. Liebe Louise, vielen Dank für den unvergesslichen Urlaub.

Sehr empfehlenswert. Wir hatten den perfekten Aufenthalt!

Die Gastgeberin Louise ist äusserst hilfsbereit, kompetent und flexibel. Sie reagiert auf Fragen und Wünsche sofort, auch vor der Anreise. Herzlicher Empfang. Wir haben bereits im Vorfeld zwei hervorragende Dokumentationen erhalten: eine für das Haus und eine mit praktischen Tipps, Restaurants und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten in der Nähe, Wandermöglichkeiten, Tipps fürs Sightseeing etc. Es gibt sogar eine Playstation im Haus! Das Haus ist wunderschön, alles sehr sauber, die Küche ist gut ausgestattet. Prachtvoller Ausblick. Grosszügige Aussenanlage, bestens gepflegt, schöner Pool, ausreichend Sonnenschirme, professioneller Aussengrill, guter Pizzaofen. Die buchbare Köchin: sehr hohe Qualität des Essens, Top-Service, reibungsloser Ablauf.
