the best in the area!
The properties, built in the late 1800s really are very vast, and each bedroom is a brilliant size, with high ceilings too, and double aspect views, all complete with two well equipped kitchens and various dining options.

The olde worlde feel of this place and the history of it really makes for a totally different holiday.

A little about the area:
Situated in the depths of the Lunigiana countryside, on the
northern Tip of Tuscany , yet within walking distance of a bar,
restaurant and shop.
The closest train station is less than 1.5km away, aiding easy
exploration of Lucca, the market town of Castelnuovo, Pisa and
Florence (with a change at Lucca). It is also possible to take the
train to the Cinque Terre which is a big bonus! The market town of
Aulla is 20 mins by car, beautiful Fivizzano under 20 mins and
under 1 hour to the beaches of the Versilian coast.
This villa gives a unique opportunity to explore the totally
unspoilt and gentler area at the tip of Tuscany, (Lunigiana) but
since it is only 20 minutes from the motorway, then the usual
sights are in fact easier to visit than from many properties
further south.
Ideal also for cheaper flights from Genoa/Parma although the
property is equidistant from Genoa and Pisa airports.
The climate is mild, with olive trees and vines, making for
relaxing drives.
Spend your days sightseeing, hiking straight from the door, or relaxing at that amazing pool. Don't forget to stargaze after dining al fresco as this is a perfect spot for shooting stars! Or in the Spring dine outside whilst watching the twinkles from the fireflies...

Great accommodation!
Arrival date: 10 August, 2024
The Residence il Palazzo dal 1894 is located away from the
village and is surrounded by old trees. A stately, renovated house.
The lovingly furnished and spacious rooms are very inviting. The
outbuilding with bathroom, kitchen and large windows has also been
beautifully renovated and furnished. We immediately felt at home.
But the highlight for us was the pool with the large lawn and the
marvellous view. Fantastic! Not so important, but even the park
area with the many olive trees is beautiful. A pergola leads from
there to the house. The suitcases can be unloaded directly in front
of the house. The very friendly landlord was always available and
contact was easy. We also recommend the pizza evening. The various
pizzas, which are baked directly on site in the stone oven, were
exceptionally good. Many thanks to the two 'bakers', especially for
the lovely birthday surprise. All in all, our expectations were
exceeded.
Arrival date: 27 July, 2024
The most immediately striking thing about the property is the
garden - spectacular views of the mountains and a large and stylish
swimming pool. But the house is also great, with large rooms and, a
well-equipped kitchen. Stefano was a helpful, responsive and
friendly host.
Arrival date: 17 August, 2024
The house, the pool and the whole outdoor area is a dream. The
communication with Marcus was great and uncomplicated. We missed
nothing.
Arrival date:15 June, 2024
A quiet place in the middle of several small villages. The house
and annex are spacious and equipped with all amenities. The
swimming pool and surrounding garden is spacious and lovely. The
house is located high in the mountains, the route to it is narrow,
hilly and not always easy to prepare. Please take this into
account. Furthermore, a top house with the opportunity to explore
much of the area. And a big compliment for the reception and the
source of information Elettra! Tip: visit the city of Lucca, La
Spezzia, Equi Terme (cave visit) and Lago di Gramolazzo. Also do a
concert evening at Agriturismo Tripala!
Arrival 29th July 2023
Very nice and beautiful house and pool area. A little tight Road
to the house.
Arrival 15th July 2023
It was a wonderful stay, the villa with its charm of the early
'900, the large park with a beautiful swimming pool, the
fascinating landscape. Our 6 boys were enthusiastic about the
holiday, we adults were able to live an experience of great emotion
in the fantastic solitude of the location. Finally a holiday all
together without too many distractions.
Arrival 17th June 2023
The description of the accommodation is 100% accurate. Due to
its location in the mountains, a pleasant climate in the summer
months.
Arrival 11th June 2023
We loved our experience at La Palazzo. We have had many vacation
rentals over the years and this stood out as one of best. The house
is in a beautiful, peaceful location. Marco and the other property
managers were helpful and gave us wonderful suggestions for
restaurants, shops and sites to visit. The grounds and house were
beautifully tended and the pool was perfect. We were two families
with plenty of space to roam. We loved our stay and would highly
recommend it.
