Holiday houses in Filecchio

Very nice house which is very nicely renovated and spacious in all areas. To stand out is the large pool, which everyone enjoyed very much. The house is in principle very quietly located in the forested mountains. From the town in the valley to the house it is 12 minutes by car. Day trips to Lucca, Pisa, Florence and the sea are easily doable. A recommendation is also the Grotta del Vento. We had a week of great weather with temperatures from 33 to 38 degrees. This was borderline because the house does not have air conditioning. Ventilate everything in the morning, then close everything dark until the evening. Sleeping at night with open windows is mandatory. Which leads to the one point of criticism relevant to us, because the dogs in the neighborhood bark all night, which annoyed even the deep sleepers. Would we come back with two kids, yes probably, but not in August.

Daniele’s apartment in Barga was ideally situated close to the old town and within walkable distance to everything we needed. There was lots of space and excellent cooking facilities. The terrace was a lovely place to sit and enjoy the views of the old town and the mountains.

Anna’s apartment was absolutely dreamy it felt like stepping back in time. She paid attention to even the tiniest details, carefully preserving original paints and walls, which gave the space a truly unique glamour. Anna herself was so friendly, flexible, and helpful, making the whole experience smooth and welcoming. It was the perfect weekend getaway to detox and unwind from busy city life. Highly recommend!

Great location, spotlessly clean, great air con and shower. Quick response to queries. Would recommend.

Wonderful place to stay to relax and reflect. Fantastic opportunity to walk and explore the mountains.

Casa Caterina is a magical & mystical time capsule, you will feel enriched by the views and its walls. It will have everything you need to lead a simple, wholesome life while there. The host Caterina couldn’t have been more helpful, recommending her friends’ beautiful restaurant (Buca di Baldabo) as well helping us get the stove going after a glass of wine when we couldn’t understand the screen’s language. You will leave feeling revived and whole, an incredible place! Thank you so much!

We booked this for a girls holiday and we had the best week. We didn’t hire a car, we walked to a few of neighbouring towns and got a taxi to Lucca, and a train to Florence one day. Neighbouring towns have small supermarkets and the walks to them were enjoyable, the scenery is truly incredible. Lucca is beautiful and has incredible markets, it’s a must see if you stay here. The villa itself is exactly as shown in the pictures, the pool area is gorgeous, we sat around the table every night for dinner, and when it’s dark there’s clusters of fireflies sparkling in the roses, it was magical. Stefania was great, very responsive and there if we needed her. We’d definitely recommend and book this villa again in the future!

Amazing authentic villa with comfortable beds, perfect views to surrounding hills, big pool with sunbeds, well equipped kitchen, outdoor pizza oven and beautiful garden with outdoor dining areas. Location is walking distance from Barga old town, restaurants and gelaterias. Circa 30min-1,5 h drive to bigger cities, mountain hiking spots and seaside. Friendly hosts gave us a welcome gift of local delicacies, oil & wine. They answered all our questions quickly, and organized our group of 10 adults a transport to a local winery in advance. There is a narrow, locked gate to the area, so it is a safe private parking place, but drive carefully when entering the gate. The hosts stayed in the house next door, but we didn't even see them most of the days, and they were quickly available to help if needed. All in all the villa and back yard felt very peaceful and private to us. Perfect place to relax in the sun and to get to know the surroundings!
