We had a nice time at Davide's. Very lovely and clean house in a beautifull area. We appreciated the terrace from breakfast to the night. Grazie mille Davide

L'appartement est très confortable, au cœur d'un joli village situé à une demi-heure de La Spezia. Davide nous a très bien reçu et nous avons profiter d'un environnement calme et d'un panorama magnifique.

David begrüßte uns und hat zu unserer Ankunftszeit angepasst, überschritten die Wohnung hat unsere Erwartungen: wir besonders gern auf der Terrasse unter dem Sternenhimmel und das Haus ist in einem sehr angenehmen mittelalterlichen Dorfes.

Αποφασίσαμε να επισκεφθείτε περιοχή Gragnola καθώς ήταν λίγο ακριβό για να μείνει πιο κοντά στη θάλασσα. Παρά το γεγονός ότι η μονάδα στη θάλασσα ήταν λίγο πολύ, αν ληφθεί κάθε μέρα, ήταν τέλειο, όπως μια ημερήσια εκδρομή και πήραμε για να περάσετε ξεκούραστες ημέρες σε Cinque Terre και της La Spezia. Μας άρεσε πολύ η διαμονή σε ένα παραδοσιακό παλιό χωριό. Υπήρξαν μερικές χρήσιμες παροχές πάρα πολύ. Ήμασταν λυπηρό να αφήσει και τις απόψεις και τη φιλικότητα των ντόπιων ήταν μεγάλη.

È stato un soggiorno veramente gradevole. Davide è molto gentile. I dintorni magnifici, è un posto consigliatissimo per persone che vogliono rilassarsi e visitare paesini affascinanti in Toscana, Equi Terme, Vinca, Monzone... Le cinque terre sono facilmente raggiungibili con la macchina. Grazie, Davide , ritorneremo l'estate prossima.

Davide nous a très bien accueilli, il s'est adapté sans difficulté à nos horaires pourtant peu précis. Il nous a bien renseigné sur la région. Le logement était impeccable, dans un petit village très authentique, sans chichis et très calme. Nous avons pu sans difficulté profiter du golf des Poètes (20mn de voiture), de Pise (1h), et des Cinq Terres en prenant le train à Aulla (15mn du village) et ça, c'était très très pratique ! Je vous recommande cette adresse pour parcourir le nord de la Toscane et la côte de la Ligurie.

Un agréable moment chez claudio. Une vue à couper le souffle. De bons repas. Le calme. La gentillesse des hôtes. SUPER !!

host disponibili e gentili, luogo molto carino, in un bel paesino direi pittoresco nel borgo medievale vicino a edicola/tabacchino, bar rifornitissimo, parcheggio comodo, considerando la zona, straconsigliato per chi vuole andare a visitare gli incantevoli e storici borghi di Lunigiana proprio sotto le Apuane, chi vuole fare trekking e roccia nelle stupende (URL HIDDEN) zona è del Fivizzanese ma anche a un passo dalla Garfagnana..e pure non troppo distante da Aulla.

Most tért vissza egy mesés tartózkodás Vezzanello - Micsoda hely! Ha szereted a hegyek és a lenyűgöző kilátás, ez az a hely az Ön számára. Gyönyörű hely, jól felszerelt, kényelmes ágyak, nagyon tiszta és csodálatos sétákat a környéken. És könnyen elérhető közelségben távolságon Cinque Terre. A tulajdonos is hihetetlenül hasznos arról, hogy mi a teendő, és, ahol enni és inni, stb, stb És a szomszédok is nagyon segítőkész és barátságos Mit akarsz még?

Janice's place is a true gem! The home is filled with everything you could possibly need. It has a great kitchen for cooking that is fully stocked with all the kitchen tools you need. The views from the house are spectacular with comfortable lounging areas, making the home incredibly relaxing. When we arrived, we were greeted with huge smiles from Enzo and Rosella the caretakers, they are such friendly beautiful people; the kitchen had a lovely welcome kit with food and drink to get us started on our vacation. Prior to arriving, Janice provided us with a great guide with local things to do and see, as well as a list of the local grocery store and close by restaurants. Some of the things we loved were the local fish delivery and fruit and vegetable delivery trucks that stopped right in front of the house. We also truly enjoyed visiting some of the local villages namely the neighbourhoods of Bagnole and Equi Terma where we swam in the natural spring river and explored some cool caves. A true trip to remember! We highly recommend this place to anyone looking to experience the Tuscan country side with it breathtaking views, winding roads and friendly charming Italian people. We hope to return to the charming village of Venzzanello.

Une belle retraite Mountain Top. Photos fidèles à la description. Le Manuel Janice dispose est extrêmement utile. Nous avons vraiment apprécié notre séjour de 5 nuits. Notre famille de 6 (3 séries de couples mariés) ont été logés spacieuses. Rien ne vaut la vue sur une Nuit Toscane, les couchers de soleil sont spectaculaires. Quartier est très calme, mais étonnamment utiles et très chaleureux. L'anglais est parlé pas trop facilement, notre seul problème, même si la communication facile à Janice via e-mails aidé. Cuisine était un rêve. Salle à manger extérieure était grande et expose les points de vue. Conduire au village le plus proche de l'épicerie a été mouvementée sur la route sinueuse encore pavée. Un camion alimentaire voyager visité hebdomadaire aider baisse ce lecteur. Une recommandation définitive pour Familles, Couples, amoureux de la nature. Nous espérons y retourner un jour. Merci Janice

Hello, it was a great stay in a great house, right in the mountains of the Tuscan-Ligurian border. It had everything you needed, and even more, and we enjoyed the great view and the spacious living rooms to ninth and well used. Communication with Janice was class and has fast, well and easily folded. Especially helpful we found the Daytrips and Restauranttips. Thank you. For concerns of course is always a lot of driving on mountain up and down - but that one has in Italy almost everywhere - and at some point you get used to it. Worth mentioning is also that there is no green garden, this small fine terrace levels. Anyway, thank you and we had a great summer family holiday. RW

Auch wenn wir ein bisschen zu früh kam, wurde das Haus vorbereitet und auf uns wartet. Die Lage ist ein bisschen schwierig, mit der Navigation zu erreichen, da sie nicht wirklich existieren, aber die Anweisungen durch den Host gegeben waren ausgezeichnet. Villa liegt in einem kleinen Dorf mit atemberaubender Landschaft.

We spent 12 days in Vezzanello, a tiny village in the Lunigiana area, in the northern part of Tuscany. The area benefits from the most luxurious vegetation and is still preserved from mass tourism. People are extremely friendly and welcoming and food is gorgeous, even in the simplest restaurants. Janice’s house is ideally situated with fabulous views and fantastic quietness. It is a very functional, cosy house, tastefully decorated which offers lots of space for a big family. The kitchen is perfectly equipped and we enjoyed our meals either in the spacious living room or on the terrace. Our kids had a fantastic time with the neighbour’s animals and enjoyed very much our walking tours. Our host Janice was extremely helpful and thoughtful and provided us with perfect documentation on places to visit, day-trip suggestions as well as a very detailed list of recommended restaurants in the area and shopping possibilities. We tried many of her suggestions and were delighted as we would have never found ourselves the best places to eat. We recommend this place for people seeking a relaxing holiday and specially for tasting the most delicious food and wines at very reasonable prices far from touristic attractions(URL HIDDEN)

Vue imprenable, endroit paisible et charme toscan dans une maison. La maison était équipée tout ce que nous avons besoins et Janice a donné des conseils pour des excursions, des restaurants et des boutiques. Nous avons adoré le vivre là-bas et la haine de quitter.

Die Villa war wirklich wunderbar, ruhig auf den Hügeln. Anweisungen, um den Platz zu erreichen waren auch alle anderen Informationen suberp war sehr präzise und gab eine Gans Bild über die regionalen Optionen. Die Villa ist sehr gut ausgestattet, und wir genossen Kochen und hatten wunderbare Abendessen auf der Terrasse die schöne Landschaft zu beobachten. müssen auch die extrem gute und ruhige Zimmer und Betten gibt wirklich guten Schlaf erwähnen. Insgesamt genossen wir wirklich in dieser schönen Villa bleiben uns ein perfektes Ferienhaus bietet!

Wir hatten zehn sehr schöne Urlaubstage in Monzone. Die Wohnung, der Ort und die Gegend sind schön. Mückenspray nicht vergessen. A very nice flat and area for us, a family of five. Rebecca was helpful, available and friendly and there's a lot to discover in the village and in Massa Carrara!

After 3 weeks on the go in Europe we were looking for somewhere we could relax and experience some "real Italy" without the crowds. Monzone was this place for us. We gave Rebecca late notice ( a day) and she managed to organise it for us, We got to Monzone by car from La Spezia and then left the car parked up while we explored the village (pub in the woods), Lucca and Cinque Terre by train. Cinque Terre was a full day trip to La Spezia then ferry up to Monterosso and train back to La Spezia exploring the 5 villages on the way. Caught the last train back to Monzone from La Spezia and slept very well!. Rebecca was great to deal with and the apartment was roomy and comfortable. I'd recommend it for a quite place to relax or if you want you can jump on a train and explore some of the beautiful country side.

Rebecca's appartment is absolutely beautiful, wonderful and big. Furniture are new and in good taste. Beautiful garden with pool, amazing view from the windows: green mountain 1300 m n.p.m. high .From pool we saw Alte Monzone- adorable old town. Appartment has big terrase with garden furnitures and barbecue. Kitchen is moern and full equipped .House surroundings is amazing-and that birds singing!!! Fantastic!!! Monzone is small town with shop, pizza restaurant and everything you need. After two days staying we knew every citizens:).Road to appartment is really narrow-persons with big cars may have a problem. For us one small defect was long way to nearest atractions on the coast: 1 hour drive to Lerici (only 40 km), but way is narrow, full of turns. But for people who need real taste of nature,silence and peace- this is dreamed place.

우르스에서 텐트 훨씬 더 목가적는 사진을 의심 할 수있다보다. 그것은 잔물결의 소스에 가까운, 완전히 조용하고 너무 거기에 당신의 맥주 감기를 넣을 수 있습니다 :) 마우스 오른쪽 근처에도 열 물 공급 편안한 Schwimmnbad,있다. 우르스는 고속도로 출구에서 우리를 태웠다 것이 특히 좋은이었다; 그렇지 않으면 아마 찾기 힘들 것입니다 :)

우르스는 훌륭한 호스트이었다. 우리는 2 일 텐트에 머물렀다 그리고 그것은 갑자기 중간에 문자 그대로 내 여자 친구와 I.에 대한 좋은 경험이었다. 거기에 정말 가까이 작은 강이고 물은 시원하다. 확인 당신이 여기있을 경우 가장 가까운 식료품 점 3 킬로미터 걷기 때문에 당신은 당신과 함께 음식을 가져.

그것은 매우 조용하고 아름다운 모든 모기없이 캠프에 멋진 곳이었다. 우리는 우리 자신에 평화적으로 별을보고 같은 좋은 밤을 보낼 수 있습니다.

'손님이 볼 수있는 것들에 대한 조언을주는 멋진 휴가를 보내고 안심 항상 염려 때문에 우르스는 호스트 자격 별 다섯개입니다. 다음 장소는 자연을 사랑하고 작은 편안한 휴가를 찾고있는 나 같은 사람들을위한 사랑스러운입니다. 이 짧은 도보 작은 강을 실행하는 벨 올리브 과수원에 텐트 있음을 유의하시기 바랍니다. 자연 애호가, 이것은 당신을위한 장소입니다! 우르스는 항상 좋은 일을 추천합니다. 다음 파브리 지오와 안나까지

Alles war sehr gut abgesprochen, es gab keinerlei Probleme.

El lugar es muy agradable y Urs nos ayudó en todo lo necesario. Fue una gran experiencia. :) Lo único es que si usted no tiene un coche tenga en cuenta que va a depender de su servicio de recogida que no puede ofrecer todos los días.

Nous avons été complètement charmés par la maison de Stephania et par le cadre paradisiaque ou elle se trouve. Un seul regret: ne pouvoir rester qu'une journée dans notre périple Un seul remède : y revenir!

Роберто и соседи отличные люди; очень дружелюбны полезно. Дом очень просторный и кофемашина большой сенсорный.

Mooi huis met een prachtig uitzicht over de vallei en aardige eigenaren. Perfect!

Simonetta und Gianluca waren fantastisch und Simonetta Eltern sind exquisit und vorbei an die Gäste. Ihre Fürsorge und herzlicher Empfang haben unseren Aufenthalt noch schöner. Nicht die wunderbaren Orte der Gegend zu erwähnen und das Haus ist mit allen Notwendigkeiten gefüllt, geräumig und mit einer schönen Aussicht, die Monzone übersehen. Es ist, als ob Monica und ich hatte bereits für das nächste Mal gebucht! Vielen Dank für alles. Auf bald

Davide jest osobą, gościnni i pomocni. Dom jest sitiuated w małej wsi w pięknym zabytkowym centrum. Dom jest przestronny, ale musi być wentylowane z powodu wysokiej wilgotności. Mają kilka repelenty z tobą z powodu komarów i małych gryzących much na lato. Sąsiedzi są ciepłe i przyjazne. Istnieje ara piekarnia, dobra restauracja i przechowywania produktów w bliskiej odległości. Również wiele attractives i POI są w okolicy - zamki, festiwale, sprężyny Termal, jaskinie, trekking i tak dalej. Natura jest wspaniała.

L'host annullato questa prenotazione 36 giorni prima dell'arrivo. Questo è un post automatizzato.

We had positive experience with Francesca apt in Bardine San Terenzo, she met us way ahead on the parking lot and we followed her all the way to tiny village where we left our car,her husband just got there with 4X4 vehicle to pick up the luggage( the road to the house is not accessible by regular car, takes 5-7 minutes with the car and 3-5 minutes on foot, on the short cut road to get to the house.We receive a bottle of prosecco,which was very nice!! Apartment is big,well equipped( kitchen fully loaded!!(I mean there was everything :coffee, olive oil,spices),bathroom plenty of hot water,big bedroom;exactly as on the pictures. WiFi no problem,TV didn't work.The view from the windows is amazing, you can see mountains and churches and small "borgi ", just incredible !! Outdoors is also very nice and spacious,my self and my son we enjoyed very much afternoon swimming pool(bit chili in September) and evening fire on the BBQ, there is big table as well. For all your groceries I highly recommend store in Serricciollo on you way to Aulla, you can't miss it.They have organic products(meet, bread cheese and veggies in the weekend) To summit up, highly recommend this place and hosts.

We were a young group of eight persons and enjoyed our stay a lot! It is very calm, away from all the tourists and the view from the swimming pool is just wonderful. Sergio, who is living in the vicinity, was extremely friendly and cooked twice wonderfully for us. If you are looking for a peaceful stay with a truly italian mountain touch to it, this is where you should go. This is not a five star hotel, but it is raw beauty with a brick pizza oven that we often used. We loved it.

Francesca a Paolo byly fantastické. Přijeli jsme pozdě a bylo to neuvěřitelně sladké z nich dodaly potraviny pro naši večeři, stejně jako všechny základy z kávy atd Po celou dobu našeho pobytu byli vždy po ruce, na pomoc v případě potřeby. Zejména když jsme dostali defekt nás vzali do místní garáže a pomohl nám zařídit náhradu. Tam byla spousta map a průvodců dodávané i místních atrakcí, restaurací a výlety. Místem sám byl lepší, než se očekávalo. Úžasně krásné a klidné. Bylo to prostě úžasné relaxovat u bazénu při pohledu na úžasný výhled a mají osvěžit vždy, když se dostal příliš horká. Procházka se z malé obce je strmá, ale jakmile si dávat pozor víte, stojí to za to. Navíc všichni sousedé jsou opravdu příjemný a přátelský. V bytě bylo čisté a uklizené a prostorné. To drželo horko během noci, ale pak jsme se tam zůstat při výšce července teplé kouzlo. Oblast, opět byl skvělý. Myslíme si, že jsme kliku tím, že jde zde, jak to bylo tak klidný a chlazené, ale dost blízko, aby jet do dalších městech zajímavých míst. Musíte mít auto a já bych get satelitní navigaci nebo aktuální přehlednou mapu, jak to může být trochu matoucí. Francesca se laskavě e-mailem prostřednictvím jízdních instrukcí od okamžiku, kdy vystoupíte z hlavní silnice, která se ukázala zásadní. Chtěli jsme tam zůstat mnohem déle než týden. Já bych určitě doporučil toto místo s přáteli a chtěli se vrátit v jediném okamžiku. Mnohokrát děkuji Francesca a Paolo!

Опыт был очень приятный. Дома / дома (на самом деле есть два) чрезвычайно удобны. Бассейн является фантастическим и имеет великолепный вид. Франческа и Паоло действительно были очень дружелюбны. Мы рекомендуем дом без колебаний.

Tak for denne store ejendom! Francesca og Paolo er meget nice værter og tilbyde en stor indkvartering. Huset har en vanvittig udsigt, hygge og har en stor charme! Vi ville helt sikkert vende tilbage og indtil da det anbefales hver her for at tilbringe en uge. Pizza i stenovn bade i poolen, smukke bjerglandsbyer, masser af natur, stranden rundt om hjørnet, kultur og tradition erfaring, osv osv osv Tak en masse for denne store indkvartering! Francesca og Paolo er meget venlige værter og tilbyde dig en dejlig hjem. Huset tilbyder en fantastisk udsigt, hygge og har en stor charme! Vi vil komme tilbage igen og indtil da Vi anbefaler alle at tilbringe en uge her. Pizza i en sten-komfur, tage en lur i poolen, dejlige bjerglandsbyer, en masse natur og stranden er i nærheden, udforske tradition og cultue, og en masse mere ....

Nous avons passé une merveilleuse semaine à la maison dans Bardine di San Terenzo et je peux recommander à personne d'y aller. Nous étions deux familles avec un bébé d'un ans et un enfant de deux ans. La maison était parfaite pour ce set-up, car il offre une variété de choses à découvrir pour les petits enfants et la piscine est bien sûr un grand passe-temps. De la fois la piscine, la terrasse et l'un des appartements les vues sont à couper le souffle et la pour l'été très chaud (nous voyagions en Août) la maison offre autant de sang-froid que possible à tous que loin au sud. Francesca et Paolo étaient très bons hôtes et ont réagi rapidement à tous nos besoins. Ils avaient même fourni de la nourriture et du vin pour la première nuit car nous sommes arrivés très tard et ils craignaient que nous ne pourrions pas obtenir un bon repas autrement. Nous serions ravis d'y retourner.

Our stay in Bardine was enchanting. The house is rustic but quite comfortable and absolutely charming, we were completely welcomed by Francesca and Paolo. The village people are extremely friendly. The area is beautiful but stay on the terrace listening to the bell sing and watch the magnificent panorama is sufficient. Not to mention the delicious small pool that has delighted children and adults ... We keep excellent memories of our stay in this house perched at the top of the village. Many thanks to our hosts.

En mycket beautyful, charmig plats, så lugn och avkopplande! Francesca och Paolo är stora värdar, de är så, varm och hjälpsamma, vi kände oss mycket välkomna i deras underbara Castello. Vi kommer att komma tillbaka en dag! Tack för allt! Deborah och Co.

We had one of our best long weekend holidays at the Agriturismo Terrascura. The facility is very well maintained, the room was spacious and clean. The entire farm was child friendly. Our children 4 & 2 fell in love with their place and want to go back every day. But as though all this was not enough, our holiday was made extra nice by our hosts, Francesca and Christian. They are very genuine and warm people, very interesting and cultured, making for great conversations. Full of good tips about things to do and places to visit. We feel like we made real friends that we plan to keep in touch with into the future. I also highly recommend dinner at their place. Both of them are excellent cooks. To conclude, we highly recommend their place for a quiet holiday or an active one with hiking and visits of the sea side. Pisa is not far away and the Apuan Alps offer a view of Tuscany that most people do not expect to see. You will need a car to get here and the rustic environment is made extra special by the dirt road leading to get to their farm but it's hard to find better people or a more idyllic holiday getaway.

Excellent séjour dans cette charmante ferme rénovée, au milieu de la verdure. Les hôtes sont très accueillants et agréables. Le petit déjeuner ainsi que la table d'hôtes sont vraiment excellents. Les paysages aux alentours sont magnifiques et paisibles et les piscines naturelles très appréciées. Une adresse incontournable à conserver

Квартира в деревне горнолыжных очень комфортно и уютно, как показано на фотографии. Карла был большой хозяин, поддерживая нас всю необходимую помощь и большие предложения. Спасибо за прекрасное время!

Carla and Avio's house is as described - 3.5 storeys (with a toilet and wash basin in the loft above the bedroom on level 3) situated right in the square of the small town of Bardine San Terenzo. The road is surprisingly busy, even at night, but parking either at the front door or in the town square is always available. The bed is comfortable and the kitchen is well equipped for self catering. Unfortunately there is no reliable wifi connection in the house - the thick walls stop transmission from Carla's next door home, so despite attempts by Avio and the neighbours, a signal inside the house could not be established. We were occasionally able to pick up a weak signal from one neighbour but it was seldom available. Not a problem if you are looking for a complete break, but 2 weeks of "difficult" communication with friends and family on the other side of the world was a real issue for us!! Carla and Avio are generous hosts, delivering figs, plums, tomatoes, home made wine and other tasty treats throughout our stay. Carla made a number of suggestions of places to visit. On our last night we spent a pleasant few hours with them both on their deck, sharing a couple of bottles of Avio's wine and talking about village life and life in NZ - although we speak no Italian, off-line (SENSITIVE CONTENTS HIDDEN) Translate assisted communication! Having spent 2 weeks in the area, our recommendations for guests with a little time include: Carrara marble mine - a real highlight for us (make sure you do both the 4 x 4 ride up to the top of the mine and the cave tour - both different and very good), Lucca is very pretty and makes a nice day trip, also Barga, which had a vibrant farmers market when we visited on Saturday. We caught the train from La Spezia to visit the 5 towns of Cinque Terre - being mid-July it was extremely crowded, but great to see. Other places worth visiting include the sea-side towns of Portovenere, Portofino, San Terenzo and Lerici; Massa, Sarzana, Parma and Fozdinovo were also good places to visit. Thank you Carla and Avio for your hospitality.

Náš pobyt zde byl bohužel zkrácena, protože můj manžel dostal povolán zpět do práce, ale co když jsme se strávit tu bylo krásné. Byt se nachází hned vedle Carla, pokud nastanou nějaké problémy. Ona a její manžel byli tak vstřícní. Dokonce nám některé ze svých večeři přinesl první noc, kdy jsme tam byli! Ona nám zanechal jahody, víno, a kinder vajíčko na Velikonoce. Byli velmi pochopení, když jsme museli zrušit zbytek ven cesty, a dokonce nám pomohli ven s naším vozem. Ideální, pokud chcete pobyt, který to ale dál od všech rozruch města.
