Lucca Area Villas

This wonderful farmhouse is located in the very peaceful area of Stiava Viareggion just outside the village of Massarosa, close to the Versilia coast, renowned for its endless coastline with the many famous beach clubs. The house was recently totally restructured to a very high standard, and has been equipped with all modern comforts. ADSL internet connection has been installed and air-conditioning is available in all bedrooms at extra cost. The interior has been decorated with furniture that the owners collected all over the world during their travels, and the result is an ambience full of character, with a unique ethnic feel. A particular feature of this property is the opportunity to enjoy outdoor meals on the comfortably furnished verandas, located next to the barbeque area. For clients that enjoy relaxing in the water, this house offers a spectacular swimming pool. In the basement of the house the owner has installed a steam bath and a Jacuzzi where six people can comfortably bath: the use of both is available for clients at an extra cost.

• HEATING - Heating is available at an additional charge. Usage will be metered throughout your stay and you will be charged accordingly. Charges must be paid directly on the spot to the owner or his/her representative before departing. Please note that heating in Italy, when not subject to restrictions by the local Government, is more expensive compared to other countries. If you look for a property in low season, make sure to ask for an estimate of the heating cost. You may be asked a supplementary deposit for heating expenses.
• WATER AND ELECTRICITY - Please note that most of the properties that we offer are not the typical purpose-built Mediterranean holiday villas. Most are converted farmhouses or former manor houses, full of character and history. Water shortages do occur; please use it sparingly during the summer months. At the same time, Italy is probably one of the few countries in the world where the government has introduced a system of electricity limitators to contain the national consumption. This means you must be careful when using more than one appliance at once because the limitator will shut the electricity off.
• INTERNET CONNECTION - Many of our properties have an internet connection. From our experience, when a connection is interrupted due to technical reasons beyond our control, it is unfortunately very difficult, despite our efforts, to receive immediate assistance from some of the internet providers operating in Italy. We therefore strongly suggest that those who need to access their emails should bring their own BlackBerry, or a similar portable device. Please note that in any case we cannot accept responsibility for lack of these services.

Getting There Transfers are available LOW SLUNG CARS - VANS - MINIBUSES - Most of our houses are located in the countryside. Some of them can be accessed only by unsealed roads and driveways. We therefore advise people intending to take a sports or low-slung car on holiday, to check with us first whether the access to the property allows for such a car. We advise against the use of vans and minibuses. Please always check with us, at the time of booking, if you are planning to use this type of vehicle when staying at one of our properties.
