Design house in Tuscan style surrounded by nature

Surrounded by the nature of the Val Pedogna, near the natural park of the Alpi Apuane, in a secluded and quiet position, the Residence “Ai Sorbi” is a perfect place for a relaxing holiday. The entire property has been recently renovated and equipped with elegant furniture, with the typical Tuscan architecture mixed up with a modern style. The owner Andrea Salvetti is an artist who built this home with the help of some of the best designers (E.Sottsass, G.Pesce,A.Ciffo etc.). Moreover, the position of the house is really perfect, since it is surrounded by the nature of a valley but 22 km away from Lucca and 35 km away from the sea. You can easily reach the Garfagnana, with its typical products (porcino mushrooms, chestnuts flour and hulled wheat), as well as Pisa, Florence, Siena and other Tuscan destinations. The stone swimming pool is 13x6 m and you can get to the property through 500 m of a paved road.

Excellent property - Superb & quiet Location

We had a great time at this property! The location is remote and quiet. The pool was sensational. The renovated small house has everything you need to enjoy, bond and reconnect with the loved ones. A great grocery store (Esselunga) is 15 in away by car. Highly recommended!

Beautifull environment but old smelly house

The house seems old and smells, pool to share with other guests from house nearby (not clear in advertising - we thought it was only 1 house with pool to share with family). Pool even though very nice and environment beautifull. Hostess very friendly.

Lovely Italian retreat!

We enjoyed our stay in this cottage in the Italian mountains. Although weather was not the best, the fellas still tried out the outdoor pool. Our host, Patrizia was very responsive even answering our call after midnight as we were a bit lost trying to find the location in the dark. The cottage is very well equipped and the beds were very comfortable although WiFi was non existent in the unit we stayed in. Also having 2 bathrooms was a bonus with 4 adults. Overall we had a very nice stay!

A wonderful stay

We had a very nice holiday. Beautiful house, nice swimming pool, lots of privacy. Location is beautiful, but somewhat remote. This means it takes a little longer to get there, via a challenging road. Also no reception for 4 or 5G, WiFi is limited. No problem for us, more time to read, play games and relax. Plenty to see in the area, Lucca, Pisa, Livorno, Pistoia etc. We ate at El Paso Trattoria Pizzeria in Lucca, highly recommended!

Lovely house in tranquil location

The host Patrizia is lovely, really helpful. Comfortable and spacious house which is well equipped and with characterful designer furnishings and lighting etc. Though quite pleased to find a modern more traditional sofa than the seating cubes shown on the website photos. Excellent wifi in the house, though it didn't reach to the pool (not a bad thing!). Good aircon which managed to keep the 35C heat at bay. Be prepared for a couple of kilometers single track road with few passing places to get to the property. It's a quiet road though and we only met a couple of cars when leaving on the last day. Recommend visiting the small hilltop town Coreglia Antelminelli, and we had a lovely visit to the Orto Botanico in the Apuan Alps, amazing views of mountains made of carrara marble, and guided tours of the wild flowers just 5 euros each.

Enjoyed our stay

A beautiful house on top of the mountain. Great views, fully equipped kitchen, good beds and a great and beautiful pool. The road to the house is not for everyone. My wife is scared of heights so that did not help. My daughter and I loved the little off road part. One point of critism: the house is a little bit smelly. Maybe because of the workshop that is attached to the house. I let Patrizia know and she told me she would address it.

Very relaxing stay at Serore

We spent two very relaxing weeks at Serore. We were in the "Sorbi" appartment, which is a separate house from the main building (approx. 50m away). It was spacious (3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms) and clean with a fully equipped kitchen (incl. dishwasher). There is also a small roofed eating area outside and a lawn with deck charis overlooking the valley. The place is remote, but therefore very quiet and peaceful. The host, Patrizia, sent detailed instructions of how to get to Serore. She also made a reservation in an excellent restaurant nearby for us and had a lot of tips and recommendations. Overall, Patrizia is really a great host! The swimming pool is shared with the other apartment, which was no problem at all. Everyone enjoyed the pool very much. In summary, we had a great time at Serore, and we would absolutely recommend it for a relaxing vacation.

Design House - Serore

There are two properties at this location, we stayed in the standoff farmhouse nearest the drive. A wonderful quirky Italian farmhouse which is well looked after. The views are incredible and are not easily surpassed. This property does not have aircon or WIFI but is equipped with fans and window shutters. WIFI signal is available if you approach the main farmhouse property. There is a lovely swimming pool which is shared between the two properties, it is well maintained and does not feel cluttered. The views and peacefulness of the location are outstanding and is ideal for an escape from normality. Not necessarily ideal for teenagers unless they are content with limited outside contact - but for adults wanting a relaxing and peaceful holiday it is ideal. Our host Patrizia is very friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. You will need a car for this location as walking to the nearest village is difficult given the narrow roads and hilly countryside.

Super schön und ruhig. Zwei Häuser teilen sich einen Pool, das war in unserem Fall aber kein Problem, weil die Gäste aus dem anderen Haus kaum vor Ort waren. Die Anreise mit dem Auto zu dem Haus ist sehr abenteuerlich. Man fährt eine Strecke durch den Wald und wir haben mehrfach aufgesetzt, wenn man aber angekommen ist wird man mit herrlicher Ruhe belohnt. Wer Entspannung sucht ist hier richtig, wer Party machen will ist hier falsch. Alles in allem für uns sehr gut

Zum Strand ‚Marina di Vecchiano‘ in der Nähe von Pisa hatten wir knapp 1 Stunde Fahrzeit. Pisa und Florenz sind in einer halben Stunde zu erreichen, Siena in zwei Stunden. Patrizia ist eine herzliche und freundliche Gastgeberin. Vielen Dank und liebe Grüße an Dich Patrizia.

Traumhafte Ferien

Wir hatten eine super schöne Woche in Patrizias Haus! Die Lage ist ruhig und total idyllisch – perfekt zum Abschalten – und trotzdem ist man in ca. 25 Minuten mitten in Lucca. Das Haus ist großzügig, sauber und gut ausgestattet, besonders die Küche hatte wirklich alles, was man braucht. Der Pool war ein Highlight – einfach traumhaft! Patrizia war immer erreichbar, total herzlich und hatte super Tipps für Ausflüge. Wir haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt und würden jederzeit wiederkommen

Bergige Herausforderung statt entspannter Erholung

„Die Garfagnana ist leicht erreichbar und bietet ihre typischen Erzeugnisse an.“ Leider können wir diese Aussage aus der Inseratbeschreibung aus eigener Erfahrung nicht bestätigen. Zunächst möchten wir jedoch unseren Gesamteindruck schildern. Die Kommunikation mit der Vermieterin im Vorfeld war durchweg angenehm; sie hat uns viele Tipps und Informationen zur Umgebung gegeben. Die Aussicht, die uns bei unserer Ankunft auf dem Berg geboten wurde, war tatsächlich schön. Leider kann die schöne Aussicht jedoch nicht über die beschwerliche Anfahrt hinwegtäuschen. Wir benötigten über 30 Minuten, um die Unterkunft zu erreichen, und die steile Strecke brachte uns ganz schön ins Schwitzen. Die positiven Kommentare, die den Weg zur Unterkunft als „entspannt“ oder „einfach“ beschrieben, können wir keineswegs nachvollziehen. Stellenweise war der Weg gefährlich, ohne Leitplanken und mit steilen Abgründen. Vor Ort fühlten wir uns nicht wirklich willkommen, was dazu führte, dass wir noch am gleichen Tag wieder abreisten. Für uns war die Vorstellung, jeden Tag den Berg hinaufzusteigen, einfach untragbar. Zudem war die Unterkunft so abgelegen, dass es keinen Handyempfang gab. Aufgrund der mangelhaften Infrastruktur können wir diese Unterkunft daher nicht empfehlen.

Hervorragend

Wir haben eine tolle Woche im Serore verbracht. Die Lage des Hauses oben am Berg ist sehr idyllisch und für Naturliebhaber, die gerne die Ruhe und Schönheit der Natur genießen wollen. Das Highlight für unsere Kinder 13 und 14 Jahre war der große Pool, der ausgiebig genutzt wurde. Alle wichtigen Städte wie Pisa, Florenz, Livorno und Lucca sind gut mit dem Auto zu erreichen und auch ein Supermarkt liegt nicht weit weg von der Unterkunft. Die Besitzerin Patrizia ist eine sehr freundliche und hilfsbereite Gastgeberin, auf alle Fragen haben wir per WhatsApp umgehend eine Antwort bekommen. Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt und können die Unterkunft sehr empfehlen. Dear Patrizia, thank you very much for the fantastic stay in Serore and your kind support at any time. It was a pleasure to meet you. Hope to see again. Best regards from Family Brenner

Wunderschöner ruhiger Ort zum Entspannen

2 Wochen in absoluter Alleinlage auf der „kleinen Farm“… Man wohnt abgelegen von jeglichem Trubel. Man ist herzlich willkommen, mit einer überaus freundlichen und zuvorkommender Vermieterin. Man wohnt in einem kleinem Steinhaus in den toskanischen Bergen. Großer sauberer Pool inklusive separaten Liegebereich ist vorhanden. Die Anreise ist etwas ungewöhnlich, da man den letzten Kilometer auf einem Schotterweg den Berg rauf fährt. Ist aber mit jedem handelsüblichen PKW ohne Probleme zu bewerkstelligen. (Sogar mit einem 5er BMW mit M-Paket). Also sich nicht abschrecken lassen :-) Zur nächsten Einkaufsmöglchkeit (Supermarkt) muss man ein paar Kilometer fahren ( schöne Stadt Lucca). Wer zum Meer fahren möchte (z.B. nach Viareggio) muss ca. 45 km Fahrweg in Kauf nehmen (wundervoller Sandstrand).

Tolles Ferienhaus inmitten der Natur

Wir hatten einen tollen Aufenthalt im Ferienhaus von Patrizia. Das Ferienhaus liegt mitten in der Natur und nur knapp 30 Minuten von Lucca mit dem Auto entfernt. Für Ausflüge in die nördliche Toskana inkl. Pisa und Florenz für uns ideal. Die letzten 200m der Anfahrt über eine steile unbefestigte Straße bzw. Schotterpiste ist zwar ein wenig abenteuerlich, aber für nicht tiefergelegte PKW auch ohne Allradantrieb durchaus zu meistern. Danke für den tollen Urlaub!

Rustgevend vakantiehuis

Ruim en licht huis boven op een berg met goedwerkende airco. Prachtig zwembad en totale rust. Voor mensen die op zoek zijn naar rust is dit een ideale locatie. Minder geschikt voor pubers. Goede Wifi, maar verder geen bereik (telefoon/mobiele data). Muffe lucht in de slaapkamer beneden en een en ander is aan vervanging toe. Toegangsweg is zoals beschreven een uitdaging, maar het went. Als het goed is wordt de weg komende winter verbeterd volgens de gastvrouw.

Schönes Ferienhaus in den Bergen

Das Ferienhaus liegt wunderschön in den Bergen nahe Lucca. Die Zufahrt geht über eine sehr kleine Straße, aber mit einem normalen Pkw ist das gut machbar. Wir wurden freundlich von Patrizia begrüßt, auch die Abreise ging ganz unkompliziert. Das Haus ist modern eingerichtet. Es gibt eine gut ausgestattete Küche mit großem Gasherd. Die Zimmer boten ausreichend Platz und die Betten waren bequem. Während unseres Aufenthalts war es recht heiß, aber die in jedem Raum vorhandenen Klimaanlagen haben gut geholfen. Zu Abkühlung gibt es auch den großen Pool, den wir ausgiebig genutzt haben und vom dem aus man einen schönen Blick in die Berglandschaft hat. In der direkten Umgebung des Ferienhauses gibt es nicht viel, nur Wald und winzige Dörfer, es ist sehr schön ruhig. Bis nach Lucca fährt man nur etwa 25 Minuten, der nächste große Supermarkt ist etwa 20 Minuten entfernt, in geringerer Entfernung gibt es auch noch eine Bäckerei und einige Restaurants. In der Umgebung gibt es auch verschiedenste Möglichkeiten für Freizeitaktivitäten, z.B. die "Grotta del vento", eine tolle Tropfsteinhöhle, diverse kleine Parks für SUP, Canyoning und vielem mehr. Es hat uns sehr gut gefallen und hoffentlich können wir noch einmal wiederkommen.
