A beautiful home
We had a wonderful stay at this villa in a very tranquille area. The bedrooms and bathrooms with the high ceilings are beautiful, decoration fits the style. We had good times at the pool, only there were a lot of mosquitos around and in the pool . The road up is a little challenge, but the tricky part is only 500 m, so ok. You are very close to Lucca, Pisa, Firenze and the seaside so ample things to do. Also closer to the house there are little villages, as Barga. You can also make a nice walk around the villla and enjoy the beautiful scenary of the Luccian hills!

Fantastic Villa - Ideal for a family holiday
We staying at the villa for 2 weeks towards the end of August 2019. We had 3 couples and 3 children including a 6 month old. The villa is nice and spacious with a big kitchen, good living room and good size bedrooms. The pool is a good size with a garden area to play other activities and the terrace area is a good size to relax. They have everything you need from enough sun loungers to every utensil you can think of making cooking nice and easy. We say a few comments regarding the drive up the hill to the villa. It is correct you can only fit one car on the road at a time, it’s tight with a few hairpin corners. However it’s really not that bad as long as you aren’t silly. If another car comes there are areas to pull in and most of the time it’s the locals who are used to the situation. We had an Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV and were fine. It’s worth it for the views from the Villa. The location is good with a local supermarket 15 mins down the road. We drove to Lucca, Pisa and Florence for half day trips. The only downside of the whole holiday was the mosquitoes (not the villas fault) so just take lots of spray, candles and plug-ins. We would definitely visit again!

Highly recommend Villa Rosa !! Beautiful villa surrounded in breathtaking views !!
Villa Rosa has been lovingly restored, decorated and furnished by it's owners, and it was such a delight to be able to stay in it !! Have read in a prior review, but must reinforce the statement that the pictures do not do it justice. The villa was so comfortable, we were two families with 6 children between us, ranging from 15 to 24, and there was ample space for us all. The kitchen was fantastic, with it's big table and every utensil you will ever need !! The pool and outside area was amazing, we loved sitting and chatting under the gazebo at night. It was a perfect villa in a perfect location for exploring the delights of Tuscany. All in all, a perfect holiday from which we did not want to return !!

Fantastic villa for familiy fun!
We (two families with five kids between us) had a fantastic stay in Villa Rosa. It is clean, spacious and well equipped. You can tell the owner uses the villa regularly as everything seems to be thought through to make your holiday relaxing. The villa has a fantastic pool which had plenty of room for all nine of us, even after the kids had filled it with about 8 inflatables! We really enjoyed barbecuing and sitting out in the warm evenings. We easily filled our week with lots of great activities: we had a couple of day trips to Lucca and Pisa, did lots of cycling in the Apuane Alps, went canyoning (Parco Del Battiferro), visited the caves (Grotta Del Vento) and played in the pool (some more!). We ate well (twice) at Molin Della Volpe, about 10 minutes drive over the top of the hill. We all had a fantastic time and would thoroughly recommend Villa Rosa. We hope to return one day.

Everything covered
Just back from our stay at Villa Rosa, where the whole family had shared a wonderful holiday. The villa has everything needed for a great stay, and is in a beautiful location. The road up to the Villa is steep and narrow (so as mentioned in other reviews get a decent hire car) but it's worth the drive. It is quite secluded (which is what we wanted) but close enough to Pisa and Lucca and other places to visit to make the drive bearable. It's nicely decorated, and all amenities have been thought of. Charlie, the host, was very quick to respond to questions. Would happily stay again.

About the host

Host profile image
We are an English family of 5 living in Surrey and are complete Italophiles, whether it be the food, wine or just the warm affection of the locals!
Having taken numerous holidays in this beautiful part of Tuscany, and having fallen in love with the area, we bought the house in 2016 with a view to letting it for holiday rentals and for personal use.
We speak fluent English, Italian, French and Spanish and my wife can also get by in German!

Why they chose this property

It is such a beautiful, peaceful and happy house - the light floods in and fills one with joy. It is a place where we feel we can truly relax - whether that's reading by the pool or listening to music in the shade or cooking something wonderful in the spacious and well equipped kitchen. There is a wonderful 360 degree view of the surrounding countryside, and yet within minutes you are in Valdottavo with all its facilities. There are glorious walks or cycles from the villa to neighbouring villages and the beautiful town of Lucca is 20 minutes by car. Within a short drive, there are some fabulous family run trattoria's and more formal restaurants. The stunning Lucchese wine area of Montecarlo is 30 minutes away and here wine tastings can be booked.
