Tuscan Villa with Private Pool and stunning views sleeping up to 12 people

Villa Prunecchio is a restored farmhouse perched above the Garfagnana valley in the province of Lucca, with southern aspect and stunning views of the surrounding mountains. Situated in the tiny hamlet of Prunecchio and just a 20-minute walk to the village of Chiozza, the house is a haven for those in search of peace and tranquility in a gorgeous Tuscan setting. Several walking routes from the house will take you along ancient mule tracks to medieval bridges and villages, through chestnut forests and way-marked trails. The 10X5 metre private pool has a shallow area for young children and comes equipped with large built barbecue, worktop, sink and shaded pergola. The cities of Lucca ( 1 hour) Pisa (1.5 hours) and even Florence (2 hours) are all within a day-trip, and the medieval towns of Sillico, Castiglione, Pieve Fosciana, Castelnuovo di Garfagnana and San Pelegrino are all within a 20-minute drive.

Beautiful rustic setting.
Unbelievably stunning setting. You will need to be a confident driver to manage the roads up to the house as the roads are steep and winding as you would expect in Tuscany. The smell of Jasmine and the natural peaceful surrounding beauty is amazing. We used the pool everyday and enjoyed a bbq too. We loved the little lizards, flamboyant butterflies and stargazing at night. There is a great cafe about 29 minutes walking up the hill with a lovely atmosphere and a small local shop to get essentials from. Lots of lovely memories, thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

A beautiful, peaceful hideaway
We've just completed a week at Villa Prunecchio, and were extremely sad to leave. What a wonderful, wonderful place! The house is beautiful, comfortable and clean, the countryside superb and Colm is an absolutely wonderful host. If you are looking for a special place to recharge the spiritual batteries, go for country walks or sit on a balcony eating large amounts of cheese, I can't recommend it highly enough.......

Amazing hidden gem!
We arrived late ind the evening and therefore wasn't able to see much of the outside, but when we woke up in the morning we were all very excited. The view from the house over the valley was stunning and the patio in the front of the house was the perfect setting for our mornings afternoons and evening. There's nothing better than to start you day with a dip in a pool in such lovely surroundings. Due to the great weather we didn't spend much time inside, but even though we had been forced indoor the house offers a very cosy living room and dining room. The house have been restored in a way which feels very authentic and we didn't feel any urges to go on many trips, since we felt like we have everything we need there. Groceries had to be done in a nearby village which is not in a walking distance, but that's to be expected when you want a view like that. We would definitely recommend the place to others both families and groups of friends.

Week end nella natura
La casa di Colm è il posto ideale per immergersi nella natura e nella quiete della Garfagnana. Splendida piscina con vista, ampi spazi esterni e un bel casolare dal sapore tipicamente toscano. Host presente e disponibile x tutte le nostre richieste. Consigliatissimo!

Urlaub mit Freunden, Kindern und Hunden
Wir waren insgesamt 7 Personen- 4 Erwachsene, 3 Kinder und 2 Hunde. Unsere Urlaubswoche haben wir sehr genossen, obwohl wir etwas Pech mit dem Wetter und einige Stromausfälle hatten. Colm ist sehr gastfreundlich, hat uns aus seinem selbst hergestelltem Kastanienmehl leckere Pancakes gemacht und war sofort zur Stelle, als wir Probleme mit dem Strom hatten. Es ist ein sehr schönes Haus mit einem atemberaubendem Blick über das Tal. Die Kinder hatten jede Menge Spaß im Pool und im Trampolin. Die Pizzeria in La Chiozza ist sehr zu empfehlen. Die Beleuchtung im Haus, v.a. im Bad und Esszimmer ist für verregnete Tage/ Abende etwas zu dunkel- wir hatten es aber auf jeden Fall mit dem schönen Wamslerherd sehr gemütlich. Vielen Dank Colm!

Un posto favoloso
Abbiamo organizzato una rimpatriata del liceo con una decina di amici e abbiamo trovato nella casa di Colm il posto ideale per festeggiare !!!! La casa è veramente accogliente con uno spazio esterno che ti offre una vista impagabile. Colm è stato disponibilissimo e gentilissimo in ogni nostra richiesta.
