About this property

New! Cottage, private pool, beautiful mountain views, WIFI, walk to restaurant

Chiara is a spacious detached 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom property with large wraparound garden, private pool and mountain views. WIFI.

Being built out of traditional stone and boasting beamed ceilings, tuscan flooring, chestnut windows with internal wooden shutters, and a classic tuscan kitchen, there is a real feel of Tuscan Charm at this peaceful property which is set on the top of a hill, with commanding views of the stunning countryside. Despite the traditional ambience there is a well equipped kitchen, modern bathrooms and even insect screens.

The owner has renovated this beautiful property with lots of love and care, and is happy to share it with guests as due to work commitments she now uses it herself less often.

As well as the main house there is a little barn with a second living room, perfect for relaxing away from the rest of your group if you need your own space...

The property is set over two floors and is arranged as follows:

Enter via traditional door into the hallway with original stone staircase.
Right into spacious living room with beamed ceilings, cotto flooring, large original fireplace and comfy seating along with a dining table that extends to seat 8 guests. TV is Italian only but there is a DVD player if you wish to bring films. The light room also has a door leading to garden.
From here one reaches the traditional Tuscan country kitchen/diner complete with large oven, 5 ring hob, dishwasher, double sink, microwave, and breakfasting table - all you need to try your hand at Italian cooking.
Also on this floor is a twin bedroom and a modern shower room with shower cubicle, basin, WC and bidet.
There is also a utility area with washing machine.

Upstairs there is :
Twin room - suitable for children due to style of decor
Double room, with double aspect views over countryside and mountains
Double room, with double aspect views over countryside and mountains
Family bathroom, with hydromassage bath, separate shower cubicle , large basin, WC and bidet.

Outside:
Large wrap around garden with traditionally paved patio area for al fresco dining.
Wooded area with trees for relaxing in the natural shade
Small converted barn with further living area for a peaceful relaxation
Private pool with views over mountains
Plenty of flat grounds for children to play (unusual with a mountain property!).

All this unspoilt countryside, stunning views and real feel of olde worlde Italy, yet one can still walk cross country to a restaurant (open high season Thurs to Sun) and there are further places to eat via a short car journey. The village of Piazza al Serchio, just a 5 minute drive away has a supermarket as well as traditional shops too.

Enjoy a holiday with a difference....

Familien Badeurlaub in den Bergen
Die Anreise gestaltete sich leider etwas schwierig, da wir auf die Tipps der Vermieterin leider nicht hörten und den vom Navi vorgeschlagenen Weg durch die Berge wählten. Angekommen trafen wir auf die sehr bemühte, nette Vermieterin Chiara. Das alte mittelalterlich wirkende Steinhaus ist top gepflegt und liebevoll eingerichtet. 8 Personen haben in den 4 Schlafzimmer reichlich Platz (sogar neben vielen nächtlichen Gästen wie Skorpionen und Tausendfüßern). Beim Haus war alles wie auf der website beschrieben, inkl. Pool, BBQ-Grill, großzügiger Terasse und Garten sowie dem Poolhaus, das uns teilweise vor Regen als zusätzlicher diente. Das Haus ist am Ende einer Sackgasse (Schotterstraße) mit fabelhafter Aussicht auf die Umgebung. Der nahe gelegen Ort bietet zumindest einen Bäcker, eine hervorragende Pizzeria und 2 kleine Supermärkte; leider zu weit um zu Fuß zu gehen und daher ist das Auto nötig. Zahlreiche Ausflugsmöglichkeiten mit Auto oder auch Zug - Station im Ort; empfehlenswert bei Ausflügen z.B. nach Lucca Mittelalterliche Nachbar-Ortschaften sowie ein nahe gelegener Badesee laden zum verweilen ein. Die Gegend ist auch super für ausgedehnte Rennrad-Ausflüge. Steakliebhaber müssen UNBEDINGT ins Restaurant "Il Grillo" in Giuncugnano Alles in allem ein gelungener Urlaub, einzig die Abgeschiedenheit und die absolute Notwendigkeit eines Autos ist etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig.

Toskana mal anders
Wir hatten einen super Aufenthalt bei Chiara. Vielen Dank dafür. Das Inserat entspricht zu 150% der Leistungen vor Ort. Beim Thema zur Lage des Objektes sollte man sich gut einlesen. Das Haus ist eingebettet in Berge. Für uns kein Problem, sondern schön. Dennoch können 30km Autofahrt etwas länger dauern. Wenn wir wieder einmal in dieser Ecke sind - gerne und sofort wieder! Vielen Dank für diese Zeit!

Viel Ruhe am Wald
Wir verbrachten 10 schöne Tage in Chiaras Haus in Nicciano. Die 4 Kinder genossen trotz kühler Witterung den Pool und auch wir 4 Erwachsenen konnten uns gut entspannen. Das Haus bietet viele Möglichkeiten zu verweilen. Tags am Pool oder der Terrasse, abends im Gartenhaus. In der Küche bietet der große Esstisch genügend Platz für 8 Personen. Das Haus liegt am Waldrand und so bekommt man ab und an Besuch von Waldbewohnern. Mit dem Hund finden sich schöne Spazierwege rund um den Ort. Im Ort gibt es die Möglichkeit Pizza zu holen oder auch einzukehren. Einmal in der Woche gibt es einen Markt im Ort. Dort lässt es sich prima einkaufen. Zusätzlich erreicht man in wenigen Autominuten auch 2 Supermärkte. Abschließend lässt sich sagen, dass wir mit 2 Familien einen sehr schönen Urlaub erlebt haben und wir das Haus nur weiterempfehlen können!
