We enjoyed our stay at this large home in the countryside between Altopascio and Montecarlo. The common rooms are spacious and easily accommodated family meals for our party of ten. The kitchen was large and contained everything that we needs for big meals. The bedrooms were comfortable and had space for many more guests. The location is perfect, being close to basic needs and good dining in Altopascio and wonderful views and even better restaurants in Montecarlo. You'll be close the Lucca, which should not be missed, and less than an hour from Florence and Pisa. The property is quiet and remote. You won't see neighbors or have to worry about privacy. Your host communicates easily in Italian, but less fluidly in English. I you do not know Italian, using a translator to communicate in his native language will greatly ease your conversation.

Nessun problema, serenità e bellezza

Stefanos Haus war die perfekte Lösung für meine Geburtstagsfeier. Wir waren eine Woche lang 4 Familien da, mit Jugendlichen zwischen 11 und 18 Jahre insgesamt 19 Personen und zur Party durften auch zusätzliche Gäste noch kommen. Das Haus ist groß genug, sehr schöner garten, Pool, Grillplatz, große Küche zum selbst kochen oder sich bekochen lassen. Es gibt 7 Zimmer und jedes hat Klimaanlage und ein Badezimmer. Der Besitzer ist sehr bemüht. Der Schirm auf der Terrasse muss mal ausgetauscht werden und eine zwischen Reinigung im Pool wäre schön gewesen, bei so vielen Kindern ist das Wasser schnell schmutzig aber sonst alles prima. Man braucht unbedingt ein Auto, aber mit einer kurzen Fahrt sind Lokale, Supermärkte erreichbar. Die Trattoria um die Ecke (1 km) und der Ort Montecarlo ist sehr empfehlenswert. Der Strand Forte DEI Marmi war für uns enttäuschend. Insgesamt ein sehr schöner Urlaub.

Tutto perfetto e grande simpatia dei proprietari

Our family had a wonderful 10 days in Villa Fontanino. A perfect villa to accommodate 3 generations. With 2 of the bedrooms on the ground floor being very suitable for those members of the family who were unable to manage the stairs (unfortunately there is no handrail). The villa was well presented and very clean. The large pool was very well used and loved. When we ate at the villa the kitchen was perfectly adequate for our needs and there were two large tables outside which we used for every meal, what a treat to have breakfast outside! We also made good use of the BBQ. The location is very good for getting quickly to the motorway (for sightseeing) although you would never realise as the villa is set in peaceful countryside. We loved the local Trattoria da Natale (within walking distance) and also discovered lovely restaurants in the old town of Altopascio. There were some initial issues communicating with the owner who can be very slow to respond to emails. However, once we were there he responded and resolved requests very quickly. Our only real complaint would be that the outside sofa and armchairs were not really in the best condition. There was only one armchair (two in the photographs) and that was broken. There could also be a more comfortable sofa inside. All in all, we loved it and wouldn’t think twice about returning for another holiday. Beautiful place!

Villa molto bella e curata con un bagno per ogni camera oltre ad uno comune per tutti. Biancheria e asciugamani puliti al nostro arrivo e casa in perfetto ordine. Molto bello il giardino e la piscina. Consigliata e perfetta per una vacanza con amici.
