Awesome views of the Garfagnana mountains from this restored farmhouse high on a hill with a sparkling pool and wrap-around terrace

The house is detached and you can catch the sun, or shade, all day on comfy deckchairs, eat at a long communal table gazing at those views, slip into the pool, or wander to the bottom of the garden for a lovely stone walled snug where you can gather to natter. It's very quiet up here apart from the wind in the trees and birdsong; on occasion deer might wander about. Interiors are cool with white walls and no clutter, the dining room is enormous and there are books, board games, cards and a big smart TV.

Bedrooms (two downstairs, three up) have exceptional views of the forests and mountain range for peaceful starts with a cup of tea; bathrooms are high end, all with big walk-in showers. Cooking for a gang will be a breeze in the snazzy kitchen with loads of gear and you're left a welcome hamper with prosecco and biscuits.

Swim in the lakes, hike in the mountains, eat mushrooms, truffles, wild boar, local cheeses and salamis.

Local points of interest from Elizabeth Carr:

Puntos de interés sobre la región de
Elizabeth Carr:

  • Cantina Bravi - stunning vineyard where you can relax and enjoy dinner with local wine over looking the mountains and vineyards
  • Camporgiano village is a short 5 minute drive from the house and has two delicatessen's, a wine bar, pizzaria in the square and the village hosts many events throughout the summer months
  • Our house is a short 15-20 minute drive to 3 beautiful lakes, we highly recommend Gramolazzo, ideal for wild swimming and paddleboarding. Lago di Vagli is also a beautiful lake to visit.
  • Verrucole castle is a medieval fortress located in San Romano. The fortress can be reached by foot from the village of Verrocole and you can enjoy a spectacular view of the Garagnana valley.
  • Lucca is one of the cities most loved in all of Tuscany and can be reached in less than an hour from Casatico, highly recommended day out to explore the ancient city walls by foot or hire a bike.
  • The famous and historical site of the leaning Tower of Pisa can be visited by car from Casatico. Once you have seen the famous site and explored the grounds you can head to the beach for lunch or explore the city centre.
