This Pinzale was perfect for us! We were a group of 17 - nine kids age 4 – 13 and eight adults age 42 – 73. We gathered in Tuscany for a family reunion / 50th wedding anniversary. The building has 3 separate apartments with plenty of kitchen space, bedrooms & bathrooms on each level – all spotlessly clean. I too chose this pinzale because of the air conditioning and window screens but the experience at this location was so much more: the large clean pool; all the outdoor furniture for gathering, relaxing, and meals (there was also large areas inside the building for meals but we had wonderful weather in late June and eat poolside most meals); the open air ping-pong area (a crowd-pleaser for our group); the sunsets over the fields of sunflowers; the location close enough to Pisa, Lucca, Cinque Terre and various other small charming towns (perfect for morning road trips – then we’d all hurry back to relax and play at Agriturismo Pinzale). Besides all the nice amenities of this location, we felt so welcome on the property by the thoughtful, kind caretakers who live there. Never intrusive but always available to answer a question or get a suggestion about the area. Lina, her husband and the dear Nonna were so lovely to meet. Plus, periodically a surprise would appear - fresh lettuce or basil from the garden or some delicious baked goods from the sweet Nonna. This was a wonderful location for our special holiday. A special thank you, Lina, to you and your family.

We had our joint birthday family reunion with 17 people coming from different parts of the world to this lovely big house. The place is great with 3 apartments on three floors, but space in the ground floor apartment to seat all 17 of us for dinner. All though the two upper floors has their own little kitchenette with enough to get you by for making small meals. On the ground floor there is also a dishwasher to care for the larger amount of dishes after a family meal. And behind the house there is a washing machine you can use for 4 euros per wash, as well as a long line for drying the towels after a day in the pool. The bedrooms are all spacious and there is great and efficient a/c everywhere. Two bedrooms with en suite bathroom, and the other bedrooms stil have a private bathroom. Outdoors the pool is big and clean, there are 10 sun loungers and lots of outdoor seating and tables. Also worth noting is the ping pong table and the fact that the property is gated and very safe. You can get pool towels for 2 euros/towel per stay On site the very friendly manager, Lina, is available. Her and her family is very helpful although not fluent in English, we got on very well and we where lucky to get home baked bread on our last evening. While we stayed at Pinzale, we had our birthday celebration with dinner from a local restaurant brought to the house, Robina Zanobini. This was a great success and is highly recommended. We did excursions to: a local winery, Torre a Cenaia the 4 pm tour Bagni di Lucca, for the Canyon Park Lucca, for the Wednesday morning market Cascina, for the Thursday morning market Pisa, for the tower and for the little safe beach at Marina di Pisa Cesina, for the water park with a Hawaiian theme. All in all a great place to stay - we would come back! Thank you

The apartments are ideal for a family reunion. The ample and well-kept pool was a big heat in the hot Tuscan summer. The AC in every room is a nice touch. The environment is quite rustic: the bathroom and kitchens could use an update.

Our family spent a wonderful week at Pinzale celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary. Nothing was too much trouble for Lina, the caretaker, and her husband who took special care of the pool and garden area. Her delightful mother brought us many delicious treats which all 19 of us , aged from 3 to 75, really enjoyed. We had the anniversary dinner catered by Zanobi who did a super job. Apart from that we happily turned out our own meals from the bbqs and groundfloor kitchen. I originally chose Pinzale for its size, closeness to both wonderful cities and the seaside, airconditioning and the insect screens but found it was a perfect choice in so many, many ways. Thank you all.

What a terrific time we all had at Agriturismo Pinzale over the last two weeks! We are a family of 24 -- 12 adults and 12 kids -- and could not have chosen a better location and facility that fit us perfectly. Location: Pretty easy to get to many beautiful surrounding towns (Vinci, Lucca, Siena, San Miniato, San Gimignano, Voltara, Pisa, and on and on), so couldn't have been more perfect. Also near beaches. Ease of train travel to almost anywhere in Italy again is a huge plus. Pool was beautiful and beautifully maintained. Three different apartments would make it easy for sub-groups to have "alone time" if they need it. We stayed pretty much together for morning and evening meals and then went various places as each family desired. Our hosts couldn't have been more welcoming and accommodating. One evening they brought over some hand-made pizza with fresh tomato sauce, fresh basil, local sausage. Yum! Another evening they brought over a bottle of lemoncello. Another, a jar of freshly made tomato sauce for our children's endless appetite for pasta and "red sauce." Would we go again? In a heartbeat!! This was a special occasion for us -- celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary with all our children and their spouses and children -- and we couldn't have chosen a better place to do it.

Stayed here for a week on a school residential, would highly recommend. The rooms each have air conditioning units and were spacious for plenty of individuals to stay. The pool was a brilliant size that was cleaned daily and there was enough sunbeds for people to relax. Owner was onsite at all times, but you would not have even known she was there as she did not disturb us, unless we needed help. Would definitely stay again, and recommend for our next school residential.

We were a family of 19 people in different ages. The house, with three different apartments, and also a nice common area beside the pool was very comfortable and nice. The host was very nice and helpful when we had some problems that was fixed very fast. It is a perfect house for big families or groups. Thanks a lot for a very nice and comfortable week.

Wonderful house, with beautiful swimming pool, lots of space, peaceful, birds singing... A dream! Great location too, only a few minutes from Pisa. Thanks a million, we loved our stay
