Hey from Stefano

Member since August 2021 | 2,938 hits
I am a fan of computers and electronics but also of relaxation and the countryside, I have 2 children and I love to spend my free time in the company of my family.

My main work takes place in the field of beauty and well-being where I manage a Perfumery shop and a Beauty Center.

I like good food and good wine in the company of good music and nice people.

In the management of the B&B I am supported by Gabriela, a girl who lives in the structure and who collaborates with us, to whom you can refer in case of urgent need

Very convenient structure to visit the province of Lucca. It also has the possibility to store bicycles indoors. The only thing to improve is the breakfast: I would add fresh bread and savory items (cold cuts, cheese, eggs).

Beautifully renovated farmhouse, practically new. Great location, close to the main communication route but at the same time quiet as it faces a large lawn that ensures a peaceful silence at night. The room we stayed in is very spacious and furnished with high-quality wooden furniture. Huge bathroom with shower and whirlpool tub. Clothes hangers with ironing board. The lighting could be improved, as the bedside lamps are beautiful but inconvenient; trying to turn them on risks knocking them over. Good breakfast, complete with a bit of everything. Special mention to the lady who welcomed us and is always present, doing everything to make you feel at home. Recommended.

Everything perfect, the place exudes serenity just by looking out the window. I spent half an hour staring at the garden while having breakfast. Spacious rooms, comfortable, large bathroom, tranquility and cleanliness. I will definitely come back if I am in the area out of necessity. Small criticism, but tiny, for constructive spirit, is that with all that greenery there are many mosquitoes, so mosquito nets or a device in the room to keep them away would be a magnificent plus as a service at this time. Otherwise absolutely impeccable for kindness and service. Recommended.

The structure is new, clean, welcoming, tastefully renovated. The location allows you to reach the city center in a few minutes, to be immersed in nature, to enjoy the sounds of a rural environment and above all the silence, without sacrificing comfort. The landlady is a delightful, discreet and careful lady with bright and serious eyes, takes care of you, prepares breakfast, if you want dinner, the rooms. I will often return to my homeland relying on this structure discovered only today, the only sin.
