The Experience
The drive up is exciting and fun, the views when you get here stupendous: a panorama that reaches to the Leaning Tower and to the Mediterranean on the horizon. Sitting on the southern slopes of Monti Pisani are a group of farm buildings immaculately restored, served by spring water and powered by solar panels. Musicians Luisa and Colin live on site, love people, love the place, and take care of everything. The two, independent, farmhouses stand side by side (ideal for friends), with living spaces on the ground floor, bedrooms up, and a big wide stone terrace at the front with curtained-off pergolas. There’s a terraced olive grove for exploratory romps – or naps in the shade – and a decked and fenced infinity pool with an outdoor shower. All you hear are the birds and the wind. As for the farmhouses: they’re functional, spotless, family-friendly and furnished in traditional style, with fireplaces for winter stays, repro art on the walls, and toys. You get a restaurant at the bottom of the hill, a food shop a six-minute drive, jazz in Lucca, guided rafting on the Serchio, and the Parco di Pinocchio in Collodi – child heaven.

This place is a little slice of heaven! From the moment my family arrived we were taken in by the beautiful surroundings. Luisa and Colin were the perfect hosts. As soon as we stepped out of the car they were there to greet us and made us all feel so welcome. You just got the feeling that nothing would be too much trouble. The views are absolutely amazing and the pool area was great. We loved cooking on the wood stove and eating on the terrace, while staring at the views of Pisa and the coast behind it. The accommodation was lovely and the kitchen well stocked. Hope to return one day......

La Lucertola is a truly special place to stay - the house is situated among ancient terraced olive groves with plenty of areas to sit and relax in the shade of olive trees or in the sunshine on the terrace by the pool. Inside, the beautifully decorated house was extremely comfortable and we woke each morning to the fragrance of jasmine blossom. We enjoyed many evenings watching the fireflies from the patio, and experimenting with the woodfired pizza oven. There are lovely walks through the olive groves directly from the house. Our 5 yr old particularly enjoyed the Parco di Pinocchio (30 mins)

The farmhouse is situated high on the hillside which then allows spectacular views over to Pisa and the Med. Colin and Luisa were informative and gave us some good suggestions on places to visit. The farmhouse is comfortable and the kitchen well equipped. If you don't fancy cooking the local deli is excellent and there are good restaurants in the area. Try the Pizza oven if you feel adventurous. The outdoor patio is ideal for sitting out on warm evening and makes very enjoyable experience. The pool is an added attraction - if a little chilly in late September! Anji, Brian and John

First let me say that Luisa and Colin were wonderful host. The property is a little hard to get to, but it is very nice and has a wonderful view. The outside area is great for dining or for cocktails after a day of activities. It is nicely located between Pisa and Lucca and only about 50 minutes from Florence on the autostrade. I would and will definitely recommend this place to my friends and family. Paul

What a lovely place! We had such a great holiday. The house is in such a wonderful setting, set high amongst olive trees and overlooking Pisa. Happiness is sitting on the balcony in the evening drinking a cup of tea. The children were delighted with having a pool in their back garden. Colin and Luisa are welcoming and friendly hosts. I would definitely recommend this special place.
