Villa in 2 Acres: Large Heated Private Pool; 360 deg. Stunning Views; Free WIFI

From Casa del Falcetto as far as you can see in all directions the 360 degree National Park views are special and stunning.

There is easy access and plenty of parking with no precipitous edges to worry about.

Whether from the lounge, poolside, or juliette balconies a feature of the two main bedrooms, you can see the small local farm, the pretty little church and in the distance from the eagles eyrie you could say, are the hillside fortress villages of Castiglioncello and Pugliano, where at lunch time the local bar serves some of the finest pasta in the area! At Reusa (3 miles) lies restaurant Spino Fioretti where Monday to Friday a superb lunch is just Euro 12 incl water and wine. Ask for 'Pranzo del lavoro'.

Within a National Park the whole area is totally unspoilt, and it is sometimes hard to believe that you are not living in a different age. You may drive the twenty minutes or so across to Fivizzano, the main town in the Commune, have a coffee at Elviros, freely exchange your books, and maybe only see one or two cars. Restaurants are numerous and have a rustic charming quality, and the ever friendly Italians always ready with a buona sera or buon appetito.

At the same time we are not isolated. Local amenities, ie bank, PO, supermarket can be found at Casola a five minute drive away. Similar drive time to the little town of Pieve San Lorenzo and with free parking then get the train to the lovely walled renaissance city of Lucca (one hour and about Euro 6), or just about anywhere else from Rome to Milan. Alternatively a one hour drive will take you down to the coastal beaches Lerici or Portovenere and the heart of the World heritage site of Cinque Terre with its little Cornish type coves and precipitous cliffs plunging to the sea. Another twenty minutes drive would have you in Ravello, Santa Margueritta, Portofino or in the other direction to Viareggio or inland to Parma the home of parmegiano cheese, and Parma ham or back down the coast to Florence!! The options are endless

A beautiful location in the Tuscan hills
We stayed at this villa for 2 weeks and it was in such an idyllic location. The view of the mountains was breath taking. We went in August and it was very hot so having the pool there was an absolute god send. The temperature was perfect and it was well maintained. We did 3 big trips to Lucca, Florence and Pisa. We drove to Lucca (unfortunately the local train doesn't run anymore) and Pisa without any issues, takes around 90 minutes. For Florence we drove to La Spezia and caught the train from there, again very easy. It turned out that on the return journey, business class was cheaper than standard class and included snacks and drinks! Definitely worth checking beforehand. The house itself was very clean but did get hot at night, however fans are provided in each room. The curtains are white and thin so if you have light sleepers it's worth bringing along some blackout blinds. One of the beds was quite squeaky but other than that everything was very well equipped and maintained. There are a variety of larger supermarkets in Aulla (including Lidl) which were handy to stop at on the way back up to the house from day trips out. Agriturismo Spino Fiorito restaurant is definitely worth a visit, the food was incredible. Overall, a wonderful stay that we thoroughly enjoyed 😃

Absolutely incredible setting
Our family of 5 had a lovely, comfortable stay. The property is exactly as pictured. The beds were very comfortable. We stocked up at the Penny Market in Aulla and enjoyed exploring the area. A day trip to Luca and Cinque Terre were amazing.

Splendid views!
This home is just wonderful! The house, the views, all of it. If you want a cozy spot with peace and quiet, one with good restaurants around, or a kitchen to try your own Italian cooking in, this is it. And the pool is an added bonus. Tony answered any questions we had and left us some lovely wine. Such a pleasant place to spend a vacation! Was tough to leave!

Magic Mountain view
This property is magical. From the house to the pool very very private to the most amazing view. Well appointed beautiful and clean. Could not fault it. We had the best time there and highly recommend if you want peace and quiet. We went on lots of easily accessible day trips with our car but the train and bus stations are close by if needed. We had some authentic Italian meals in the many restaurants dotted around the district. Can not recommend this place highly enough.

Stunning views and beautiful, comfortable villa with swimming po
We had an amazing time staying at Cassa Falcetto. The house is just lovely and had everything we needed. It is tastefully and simply decorated and was perfect for our needs. The view is simply stunning and takes your breath away. The swifts fly down and drink from the pool while you are in it and other than a few mildly irritating horsefly bites there were virtually no mosquitos. The roads are challenging but we soon got used to it and had various trips to local villages which was fun but we didn’t do much sightseeing due to Covid 19. It was the perfect covid getaway! Paul was very helpful and quick to respond when we had a problem and all in all it was a super relaxing holiday
