Butterfly house. Apartment in Villa. Shared swimming pool and large park

Casa Butterfly, is located on the first floor of the villa, and is accessed via a beautiful external staircase.
As soon as you enter a large entrance welcomes us, on our left we have the large eat-in kitchen, facing south and very bright, then the bathrooms, and in succession the 4 bedrooms, including 3 double bedrooms, where you can breathe a silent and muffled that invites to relax, thanks also to the hand-painted domed ceilings, and the original furnishings of the time.
From one of the bedrooms there is access to the small balcony overlooking the garden and the beautiful tree-lined avenue that connects the town.
The interiors of Casa Butterfly, built like the whole villa in the early 1900s, are characterized by the style and character of the tradition of Tuscan residences, such as the original antique grit floors.
Casa Butterfly has free indoor parking.
There is the possibility to visit the town and the nearby belvedere with bicycles made available for guests

Agréable location

L’appartement est très appréciable pour sa location. A proximité des plages mais également de nombreux sites touristiques, le lieu offre une piscine et une belle terrasse pour vous détendre. Le propriétaire Luca est très gentil et fort agréable, il saura vous recevoir correctement et vous conseiller sur votre séjour!

Vacanza Fantastica

Siamo entrati nel giardino della Villa e siamo stati accolti da un viale di esemplari di limoni dentro antichi coppi in terracotta semplicemente fantastici, curati magnificamente dal proprietario, che con la stessa cura ha seguito la nostra vacanza, coccolandoci continuamente, pur restando molto discreto... La Villa si trova in una posizione strategica eccezionale: a due passi dal lago dove il compositore Giacomo Puccini ha creato le sue opere immortali e dal Gran Teatro all'aperto dove ogni estate vengono qui rappresentate... A pochi km dalle spiagge del mare della Versilia... E con un'ora di macchina si possono raggiungere le pi belle città Toscane: da Firenze, Pisa, Lucca, Carrara... Uno speciale ringraziamento a Luca per la magnifica vacanza!!!

The quintessential Romantic Italian Villa

This villa is exquisite!! Located just 11 miles from Pisa in a small village where Puccini wrote his aria's, the light in the lake shimmers like diamonds, and the hosts - Luca and Lisa - are attentive, generous and kind. This villa is very comfortable with two separate and spacious apartments (upstairs/downstairs). This visit I stayed upstairs. It can sleep up to 9 people. It's a perfect place to come upon first arriving in Italy to acclimate to the time difference. You'll find the friendliest people, great food and beautiful sites all around. You will not be disappointed!!

Very charming villa in a perfect location!

My husband and I rented the villa for a family vacation from June 25 to July 8. There were 6 adults, 2 teenaged granddaughters and 2 young grandsons. The villa is perfectly located for sightseeing day trips or enjoying the ocean. The above ground pool was used daily by the children. It was shallow enough that our 5 year old grandson could walk around in it. The grounds are very spacious with flowers and fruit trees. The children could run around the yard safely. A big drawback to the outdoors, though are the voracious mosquitos! It was lovely sitting outdoors at the very long table, but you need bug spray or clothes with insect repellent impregnated in them or you get attacked by the mosquitos! The villa has two floors as separate apartments. We rented both floors, which worked out perfectly. Unfortunately, there is no sitting (living) room. There is a dining room table on the first floor which some of us could sit around, but not very comfortably. There was a rather shabby small couch in that room too, which needs to be gotten rid of soon. Originally, one of the downstairs bedrooms was probably a living room. Torre Del Lago is a wonderful small town. It's a place where Italians go to vacation we heard. It is close to small medieval villages and the big city, Florence. Having a train station nearby was very helpful and fun! Luca advised us to visit Montecarlo, a quaint village, which we did, and loved it. Luca and Lisa are very friendly and helpful. Luca even brought us fresh vegetables from their garden! If we have the opportunity, we'll definitely return to this charming villa!

Ottimo, qualitá, benessere.

Bellissima esperienza sono già molte volte che veniamo a soggiornare in questa splendida struttura che si trova a pochi passi dal lago dove ha vissuto Giacomo Puccini. La villa è vicina anche al mare che si puó facilmente raggiungere sia con le bici disponibili che con i bus. Con il suo stile liberty, mantiene inalterata l'eleganza di un tempo è dotata di cucina e riscaldamento autonomo. La consiglio vivamente a tutti quelli che vogliono godersi momenti di tranquillità, lontano dal caos di città ma anche come punto di appoggio per chi vuole divertirsi in giro nei locali della vicina nightlife versiliese, o per visitare le vicine città Lucca, Pisa, Livorno.

Esperienza gradevole, proprietari straordinari!

Abbiamo soggiornato 4 giorni in tre coppie con relativi figli; casa spaziosa e con buona dotazione (manca solo la lavastoviglie). A 300mt dal lago e 3km dal mare e vicina a piccoli market dove poter fare la spesa. Luca è sempre a disposizione per rendere gradevole il soggiorno; abbiamo usufruito del solo appartamento in quanto il tempo non permetteva l'uso delle biciclette e/o della piscina in dotazione ma tutto sommato per quanto ci riguarda ci siamo sentiti quasi a casa!

Delightful apartment, full of character.

We had a great 3 days in Casa Butterfly. It was clean and comfortable - old-fashioned with high ceilings and shuttered windows. Luca was a perfect host. We ate in two restaurants, both within a few minutes walk - Casa de Ana (we recommend the mixed starters) which was quirky but great fun - fully booked on Saturday night with local families, and twice in Diesis - great pizzas and wonderful seafood. The location is perfect - we had a day on the local beach (Stella Nord, it's been run by the same family for 100 years) only a few minutes drive away and a day in Pisa - 30 minutes away with easy parking. In Torre del Lago the Puccini museum is well worth a visit even if you're not an opera fan, and the hour-long boat trip on the lake was beautiful. Would thoroughly recommend.

un ritorno al passato con le comodità di oggi...

sono stati giorni veramente belli ..l'antica villa Liberty, grazie alle mani sapienti ed al gusto per il particolare di Luca e Lisa, hanno fatto rivivere l'atmosfera di una casa antica, liberty , valorizzandone gli affreschi, il mobilio e la struttura, non intaccandone la bellezza originale ma aggiungendo i comfort moderni. L'appartamento a noi destinato, casa Butterfly, gode di ampie camere e bagni con un grande soggiorno fornito di angolo cottura. La villa ha disposizione un ampio giardino fornito di piscina con zone destinate agli appartamenti.; cosi abbiamo potuto gustare una colazione nella sua quiete ...che nn ha prezzo ..sensazione bellissima per chi nn è abituato! Un'altra cosa da risaltare, il servizio bici messo a disposizione che ci ha permesso di lasciare la macchina nel parcheggio della villa , potendoci cosi spostare tranquillamente tra lago e mare. Le biciclette sono tutte uguali, ottima idea per riconoscerle in mezzo alle altre. Il tutto contornato dalla disponibilità professionalità , attenti ad ogni nostra esigenza di Luca e Lisa. Abbiamo chiesto la disponibilità per il mese di agosto, in quanto a pochi metri nel Gran Teatro all'aperto ,si apre il consueto Festival di Puccini , dove vengono rappresentate le Sue opere...ed anche altri concerti.Il belvedere del lago...merita una sosta!!!! A presto Luca e LIsa, grazie ancora Andea da Parma

Bellissima esperienza!

Siamo entrati in Villa Ricordi a Casa Butterfly e subito ci siamo sentiti a casa... L'accoglienza di Luca e Lisa ( i proprietari ) è stata ottima, e molto familiare, Casa Butterfly poi è molto pulita ed in posizione davvero favorevole per poter visitare con gite di un giorno l'intera Toscana.... Con le biciclette a nostra disposizione poi, abbiamo avuto modo di girare per il paese di Torre del lago e al Gran Teatro sulle rive del lago, dove ogni anno mettono in scena le opere più importanti di Giacomo Puccini...... Consigliatissima!!!

Villa Ricordi.... Un'oasi di pace e relax...

Entrare a Casa Butterfly è stata una vera, semplice, fantastica emozione. Una vera scoperta, per noi abituati a viaggiare per il mondo... Casa Butterfly ci ha avvolto con la sua aurea incantata, aprendosi a noi con i suoi spazi, sia interni che esterni.... Casa Butterfly era molto pulita e ben fornita di tutto il necessario. L'accoglienza poi dei proprietari Luca e Lisa è stata eccellente e molto informale: si siamo sentiti subito parte della famiglia e della storia della casa... Con le biciclette, messe a nostra disposizione, abbiamo esplorato il bel paese di Torre del lago Puccini e la bellissima Villa-Museo dove ancora riposa il maestro Giacomo Puccini... Complimenti davvero per la nostra magnifica esperienza....

Vacanza fantastica in Villa a Casa Butterfly....

Dal momento che abbiamo visto le fotografie sul sito ce ne siamo innamorati... E avevamo visto giusto... L'accoglienza di Luca e Lisa è stata molto calorosa e ci hanno fatto sentire subito in famiglia.... La casa poi curata nei minimi dettagli: la cucina esposta a sud è davvero molto bella e le camere con i soffitti a volta dipinti a mano sono eccezionali.... La posizione di Casa Butterfly è ottima: a soli 5 minuti dall'autostrada A11, e per chi vuole godersi il paese in tutta la sua bellezza, ci sono le biciclette a disposizione per visitare il belvedere sul lago a soli 500 metri, la pineta od il mare, che anche in questo periodo è davvero molto bello! Il giardino a nostra disposizione è molto bello e ben curato. Una vacanza all'insegna del relax e della tranquillità..... Sicuramente torneremo con la bella stagione!!!!! Lo consigliamo vivamente!!!!

Incantevole soggiorno in una splendida Villa...

Il nostro arrivo a Casa Butterfly è stato salutato dall'incontro con i due proprietari, Luca e Lisa, veramente gentili e disponibili a tutte le nostre esigenze. La casa è molto pulita ed arredata in modo impeccabile, dotata di ogni comport. L'ottima posizione è stato un privilegio per le nostre escursioni nella zona ed in tutte le città della Toscana.... Ottimo anche per raggiungere le Cinque Terre... Le biciclette a disposizione sono state il fiore all'occhiello per poter girare per il paese in tutta libertà..... Il giardino poi è davvero grande e ben curato, con spazi comuni e grandi aree private..... Suggestivo e da consigliare vivamente.....
