A little about the area
- Beatrice is situated on the edge of a tiny hamlet in a beautifully rural location with stunning open views, yet within easy reach of all facilities.
- There are various good restaurants providing fresh local home cooked traditional food within a short drive, as well as local one off shops, delicatessens, gelaterias and supermarkets. On the way to town there is a village shop providing home cooked Italian hot and cold food to take away, with a different menu each day. Ideal for super easy eating at home, or for picnics.
- For relaxing afternoons out, there are lots of pretty villages to explore in the immediately locality, one of which is fully walled commanding outstanding views over the Apuane mountains. Many of these villages have festas in the summer with food, drink and dancing.
- Situated only a short drive from the National Park of Orrecchiella, the location is ideal for walking, hiking, horseriding, mountain biking and picnicking, surrounded by views of the seemingly endless mountains, and local chestnut woodland.
- For those who enjoy the outdoor life there is also a local tree climbing/zip wiring park, with courses adapted for all age groups, from the very young to adults.
- There are local adventure parks where one can try water canyoning, rock climbing, swimming in rock pools, canoeing etc and there is the Grotta del Vento, a massive cave system in the mountains which is a good day out.
- There is an ancient fortress to visit with jaw dropping views, and interactive displays for children including a chance to try a little archery.
- For when a townie day beckons, the local market town of Castelnuovo di Garfagnana is less than a 15 minute drive. Here there are bars, restaurants, a famous Thursday morning market, old castle walls, the river Serchio and local train station.
- The beautiful mediaeval town of Barga with its cobbled streets, great architecture, cathedral and great views is only a 25 minute drive. Barga is famous for its art and music, and here one can often enjoy free music, evening markets, dancing, and sometimes even impromptu entertainment from Paolo Nutini! Becoming well known for its restaurants too, Barga has plenty of places to eat.
- Lucca, the fully walled Mediaeval City and the Capital of the Region is only an hours drive and one can spend the day cycling or meandering along its ample walls; people watching in both the grand and tiny piazzas with prosecco, coffee or ice cream; designer shopping; climbing towers, visiting some of its 99 churches or just taking in the atmosphere. If you like opera, there is a recital every evening before dinner in a unique church setting.
- The traditional Tuscan sites of Pisa and Florence are easily do-able in a day trip as are the beaches of Forte dei Marmi or Viareggio. Many guests also visit the Cinque Terre...

Reviews
We had a very relaxing holiday at the villa. Beatrice is a very
cordial and pleasant landlady who simply makes you feel at home.
Many thanks for this great house in this wonderful location!
Arrival date: 22 August, 2024
We had a great time. The place is beautiful located and very
nice. The pool is great and beds are good.
The kitchen is well maintained and easy to use. We enjoyed taking
trips in the area and went for some great walks too.
Beatrice is very helpful and respectful. Thank you for sharing
this place with us.
Arrival date: 3 July 2024
Everything was perfect. It would have been nice if the
information had been in German, especially as the hostess speaks
perfect German.
Date of arrival: 9 June 2024
The pictures on the website correspond exactly to reality. The
view is fantastic, the pool, which you have all to yourself, is a
dream and the house has everything you need. The welcome from
Beatrice (she lives in the house next door) was very warm. The
house is in the mountain village of Pianacci and to get there you
have to put up with a few switchbacks and climbs. But it's worth
it! The location is very quiet and secluded. We liked that.
Unfortunately we were a bit unlucky with the weather, the pool was
cold, but that didn't stop the teens from swimming :-) Beatrice was
also a nice contact person during our stay. She even speaks
German.
Date of arrival - 22 May 2024
We received a very friendly welcome from our landlady. The
holiday home is lovingly furnished. There are many attractions in
the area. We really enjoyed our vacation in October.
Arrival 07/10/23
Perfect, totally relaxing, beautiful view
Arrival 16/09/23
We were there for almost three weeks and really enjoyed it. The
owner is very friendly and happy to help with any questions.
However, you should know that the nearest shops can only be reached
by car, since the house is very quiet and secluded. you also have
to drive to go out in the evening. But we really enjoyed the rest,
everything was fine for us!
Arrival 05/08/23
House was fantastic the scenery amazing.my only suggestion and
this is from a UK family perspective only the property had no
kettle. Access to English speaking TV service would also make an
already fantastic stay even better.
Arrival 18/07/23
Stunning location, ideal for quiet relaxing stay. Mountain views
are breathtaking. Pool area really good with plenty of
sunbeds/chairs and shade. Car essential, but there are plenty of
good restaurants within an easy distance.
Arrival 17/06/23
This property was built with love. Absolutely gorgeous! Our
host, Beatrice, was so helpful in making sure we were comfortable.
Beautiful week in the mountains!

We felt very comfortable in the very tastefully furnished and
well-kept house with a beautiful garden and great pool area and
found the landlord to be extremely friendly and helpful. The
location is perfect for exploring picturesque little mountain
villages, the Garfagnana and cities like Pisa, Lucca etc.

We spent a very nice week in a beautiful house with a fantastic view of the countryside and warm landlords! You can find everything here. Culture in the cities and hikes in a scenically very interesting region called Garfagnana.
Arrival 20th August 2022
We were very satisfied. The accommodation and the garden were great. The landlords live on the property but have absolutely respected our privacy, but were immediately there if you needed something. We will definitely spend our vacation there again. Thank you Beatrice and Alberto

The cottage is very quiet and of course located on a hill in the village of Panaccio with wonderful views over the Garfagnana valley. The house offers everything for a relaxing holiday. The landlords Beatrix and Alberto are very hospitable and helpful.
