Great property and facilities

Loved our weeks stay, it’s a beautiful home with everything you need to enjoy the area. Tanya was amazing at organising boat trips and cooking lessons - both highly recommended.

Amazing stay in beautiful Lucca!

Everything about the property was fantastic! It exceeded all expectations. The attention to detail on the rooms, decor, fully stocked kitchen with everything you could possibly need. Communication with the owner and the house manager was excellent. Would definitely recommend if you need help with the activities in the local area:) It was the perfect location to spend my birthday with friends and family and would recommend to anyone wanting to spend time in that region. It is also so close to vineyards for wine tasting and the scenery is absolutely breathtaking:)

Fantastic place in northern Toscane (near Lucca)

Super house, excellent facilities, good service. The house is located in beautiful surroundings. The outdoor facilities like the swimming pool, the pizza oven and grill, dining facilities are fantastic. With good weather the perfect place for relaxing en enjoying life with family and friends. In house facilities like kitchen and bathrooms are also very nice and well maintained. (A small advice: Make sure you read the waste disposal instruction carefully and follow it by the detail, a small mistake causes a big fine).

Beautiful property set in lovely countryside.

We stayed for a week as a family of five and had a fantastic holiday. The pool was a big hit (as was the darts board) with everyone and the house is lovely with really comfy beds. The kitchen is well equipped and the outdoor seating areas for enjoying meals are gorgeous. We were slightly disappointed that we couldn't use the pizza oven as we have in previous rentals. The air conditioning was definitely needed and we did feel that it should have been included instead of being an additional charge. The property would also benefit from a welcome package of a few groceries as many rentals provide these and are really welcome for the first night. We did have an amazing time though and thoroughly enjoyed exploring the area which has lots to offer. Lucca and the surrounding region is stunning.

Idyllic villa

La Camelia is an absolutely beautiful villa located at the end of a winding single track road in green wooded hills about 25 minutes from Lucca. The pool and gardens are beautifully maintained, there’s a BBQ, table tennis and other games for entertainment, the kitchen and living areas are well equipped, the bedrooms are comfortable and well decorated, the bathrooms are clean and modern. 5 stars all round. The local village is about 5 mins drive and has a decent supermarket, bar and pizzeria. The beach is a 30 minute drive. There are lots of places to visit nearby and Lucca is worthy of more than one visit to see even part of what it has to offer. A car is essential

Really lovely and relaxing

The property was perfect for 10 people. The kitchen was well equipped. Pool area really good as were the outdoor eating areas. Would be nice to have some comfy sitting area however. The slight downside is the villa is situated up a winndy hill so eating out was a bit of a drag. Overall we loved staying in la camellia. There’s so much to do around. We visited Lucca, got the train To Florence ( realised however you can drive and get a tram into the centre) drive to sam Gimignano, and cinque terre. The beach at camiaorie is worth visiting. We also had a lovely meal cooked by a local chef!

Perfect North Tuscan location

We stayed here at the end of September and had a wonderful break. The house is very spacious, well appointed and set in a beautiful location at the top of one of the hills surrounding Lucca. With a lovely pool and an incredible outdoor woodburning oven this house is perfect for an authentic Italian getaway. An easy drive into Lucca meant we could visit the town for the shops and resturants and if we had stayed longer Florence is very easily visited either by road or train from Lucca. There is a brilliant local shop which had an amazing selection of produce including fish if you don't feel like the drive into Lucca. On our last day we drove north to visit one of the seaside towns of the Cinque Terre which is well worth doing Definitely hope to go back for another visit CB - London

Great for families, especially little ones

We were 6 adults and 3 young children on this family week. The house was well equipped, roomy and the pool area was ideal. We especially liked the 3 different areas outside for dining and drinking as well as the ping table! While there was no air conditioning (which may matter to some folks) we found the fans and open windows served us well. We would recommend this house to our friends without reservations. Down the hill from the house was a great Gelateria (Silvias) as well as great thin crust wood fired Pizza at La Piazzetta (oddly not in tripadvisor). The food mart Simply was around the corner from Piazetta- all of these were within 10 minutes of the house. We must note the owners as well as their property manager Gina were highly responsive and also accommodated our needs for cribs and high chairs. A 5 star recommendation.

What a fantastic and beautiful authentic villa tuc

What a fantastic and beautiful authentic villa tucked away In the Tuscan Hills - we loved it at first sight! We were three generations from 5 to 74 years old living at this old charming villa for 14 days in june/July 2018. The kids spent most of their time in the two wonderful pools and played with the nice local dog “Uma” and the adults where having a relaxing and Nice time along the pool or nearby in the cooler areas by the pergola etc. We made wonderful dinners by the grill, using the herbs from the garden, and also had the available House chef prepare an amazing authentic tuscan dinner one night. Other days went with exciting trips to Lucca, Pisa, Florence, Portofino and Grotto del Vento. Gina the House agent and her crew were very helpfull during all of our vacation. Big plus. The Bad: The villa was burglarized a day when we were out for a couple of hours - iPhones, iPads, camera, passports etc. were stolen from us - the two robbers (that we saw rushing away on a scooter) came into the villa using a screwdriver on the patio door. Reinforced patio door and a house safe for guest valuables would be a plus to prevent others from that unpleasant experience. Wifi was bad at the villa and we had to buy extra after the first week - something that should be included and work at a better speed. To sum it all up: It’s a really wonderful villa at a beautiful location which I would recommend to everyone and bring my family to again - that is if the villa got a safe to secure valuables while sightseeing, and better wifi.

Sommerferien 2023

Wir haben den Aufenthalt im La Camelia in vollen Zügen genossen. Das Haus entsprach vollumfänglich unseren Vorstellungen. Das Haus ist toll eingerichtet und bietet alles, was benötigt wird. Insbesondere die Küche ist sehr gut ausgestattet. Uns hat es an nichts gefehlt. Der Aussenbereich mit all den Sitzplätzen, Pflanzen und Blumen lässt keine Wünsche offen. Die Fotos im Inserat entsprechen absolut den Tatsachen. Wir würden sofort wieder kommen und können das Haus wärmstens empfehlen.

Wonderful!

This house is in an absolutely stunning location, surrounded by the Italian hills and Cyprus trees. The property itself was very homely, modern but with many beautiful period features including beams, open brick and stone work such as the open outside bbq area. The decor is high quality; with lots of interesting art and decorations. The house which has 3 stories is Incredibly spacious inside and out with multiple areas for dining, relaxing and the zones in the garden area are brilliant too. The bathrooms and bedrooms are all a fantastic size and perfect for a family. We had some excellent recommendations for local dining which gave a real taste of Italian living. You’ll definitely need a car to get around but we absolutely loved coming back to this property to relax and unwind after a busy day exploring Lucca and the surrounding areas such as Pisa and Florence. We would highly recommend for either a small group or a larger family. Thank you!

Beautiful autumn stay

Back from a lovely week staying in this property just outside Lucca. This house is perfectly located in beautiful countryside yet only a short drive from the old walled town of Lucca. The house itself was really well appointed with everything one could want. A lovely kitchen as well as outdoor BBQ area and plenty of outdoor seating so we could enjoy eating outside in the last of the late summer warmth. Super spacious as well with a large living room and bedrooms with views over the local countryside. There's also a great local pizzeria and small but well stocked supermarket only 5 mins drive from the house. We made plenty of trips to Lucca as well as deeper into the North Tuscan countryside and a very easy day trip to Florence on the train from Lucca. All in all a great week in a wonderful location. Will definitely go back..
