Villa, private pool,mountain views. Aircon included in price. Visit cinqueterre!

This Wonderful Villa With Private Pool, And Stunning Views Is Situated On The Far Edge Of A Tiny And Peaceful Mediaeval Village in a quiet location.

Whilst This Imposing, Light And Airy Detached Villa Is Reached From The Front By Fairly Steep Steps using the original stone steps, one can also enter at the side from the large driveway which is more or less at ground level. The villa boasts a wrap around garden allowing guests the choice between sun and shade all day long.

There Are 4 Large Bedrooms, 3 Bathrooms (One Of Which Is En-Suite), 2 spacious Hallways, A Comfortable Ground Floor Living Room, Large And Well Equipped Kitchen Diner, And Upstairs Landing With Further Sitting/Reading Area.

The villa also boasts a secluded private pool and patio area in the back garden where there is also a solar heated pool shower, and a room currently used as a study.

The villa has been Carefully And Beautifully Furnished Throughout With Restored Period Furniture, yet has the modern comforts of insect screens throughout, macro and micro opening windows for natural and eco friendly climate control and even air conditioning, although this should rarely be required due to the altitude.

WIFI throughout.

A little about the area

Villa Martini is situated in a tiny peaceful village with no facilities but there is a good selection of restaurants within a short car ride, and there are a couple within walking distance (1.5 - 2km).

For shopping, there is a minimarket which also doubles as a bar less than 2km away.
The closest train station is less than 2km 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 and it is less than 1 hour by car to the seaside.
This villa gives a unique opportunity to explore the totally unspoilt area at the tip of Tuscany, (Lunignana) 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 although the property is equidistant from Genoa and Pisa airports

Beautiful relaxing villa stay
We loved this villa - it was very comfortable and well equipped and we loved the pool with its beautiful views. Fabio the owner was very friendly and made us very welcome. The location is rather remote - there isn't really anything in Vigneta and you need to drive to the nearest shop and restaurant. However, we were very happy relaxing in the villa and round the pool so this didn't really impact on us.

una casa bella e perfetta!
I have stayed in many many places in Italy and this was one of my best experiences. The home is spacious, clean, has everything you need to make meals and relax. We toured the area everyday and came back to swim in the evening, and I made simple meals and served them at the outside table, just perfect. I also had to finish some research and write a paper while I was there and found it very comfortable to work in the evenings and wifi was excellent. The views are unbelievable. Fabio and his wife are available and very kind. The restaurant in Pieve San Lorenzo is very very good and close and inexpensive.

Ideal Family retreat
Everything was up to our expectations, plenty of space for all the family. Pool a bonus and Fabio very helpful and generous. For perfection we could have done with more cooking utensils, oven dishes, new frying pan etc. Otherwise brilliant. David and Angela

Lovely house and pool in beautiful surroundings
This is a spacious and well equipped villa with a fine pool and fabulous views. There are three outdoor seating areas, one of which provides deep shade when wanted. The pool is in full sun, big enough and deep enough to swim in and beautifully lit at night. Fabio, the owner is charming, and greeted us with tomatoes, basil and his own olive oil which is better than anything you can buy. There is a friendly bar two minutes away which has lovely owners and provided my son with English football on request (so long as it didn't clash with the Juventus game). Casola, a short drive away (or three quarters of an hour by footpath) has a little supermarket that stocks everything you need. If you like walking the surroundings are beautiful and there is a network of well-marked footpaths. The local restaurants are remarkably good and inexpensive, notably, in my experience, Il Borghetto in San Lorenzo and Da Remo in Monzone. Having discovered that weekday lunches usually cost 10 Euros a head including wine (at the nearby Lo Spino Fiorito for instance) even my father wanted to go out. Not very many non-Italian tourists have found this gorgeous place which provides a taste of genuine Italy and to which I very much hope to return. Highly recommended.

Fabulous property
Beautiful house in a quiet scenic setting. Real get away from it all. Finished to a high standard.The owner was very welcoming and on hand if anything was ever needed. Even provided vegetables and olive oil from his own garden. We had a fantastic time and would highly recommend it. Good facilities and lovely restaurant near by.

A Warm but Lovely Holiday
We booked the Villa Martini based on its appearance and the previous write ups. It was in an area of Tuscany that we had never experienced before and so it was with some trepidation that we drove up the winding road towards Vigneta. But the astounding views of the Apuane Alps with its jagged peaks were a real surprise and over the next next two weeks we watched the changing light over Mt Pisanio as the clouds or the early morning mist changed its appearance. Villa Martini was a real delight. It is an old building with well proportioned rooms and restored to a high standard. All the rooms were adequately spacious and the abundance of showers and baths was a real blessing, given the heat wave we lived through. The kitchen was spacious and well equipped and the dining table easily accommodated the seven of us. Outside, the pool had a fixed depth throughout but quite adequate for swimming if not for diving. Particularly pleasant were the views from the poolside patio, which was where we took our breakfast most mornings. To the side of the house, the landlord had thoughtfully designed a shady retreat where a long table and chairs were sheltered from the mid-day sun and where cooling breezes came in from the mountains beyond. A modern gas fired BBQ proved very useful. Given that we holidayed in the 2018 heat wave with daily temperatures ranging from 38-40c, the presence of the shady side of the house was a godsend, so too were the thick walls of the house which helped to make the interior always cool. If there was one thing that the landlord could consider, that would be to construct a similar awning over the far side of the pool where the current table and umbrella do not cope with the mid-day sun. The village of Vigneta was served with a daily service of fresh bread and twice a week an excellent greengrocer arrived, while down in the nearby village just minutes away a fish van came once a week and butcher also. But a bit further down the valley there was a small supermarket that stocked most things. However the highlight of Vigneta was the recently refurbished bar, whose opening we were invited to. A lovely couple run this oasis and are adept at making Spritzers - as well as expresso if desired. Finally, the Landlord Fabio - a truly lovely man who often appeared with a bag of tomatoes, zuchinni, or onions from his own garden. And one memorable day he took us to visit the marble quarries. Villa Martini is a holiday venue we thoroughly recommend

Very nice place
Beautiful house. Everything you need is there. The place where you can eat outside is an ideal spot, it is always pleasant there even in very hot weather. We really recommended this house. Owners are very friendly. Only point to take into account is that you always have to drive a long way for groceries or excursions.

Hervorragender Ort zum Entspannen
Das Objekt befindet sich ca. 30 min Autofahrt von der nächst größeren Stadt mit Einkaufszentren. Es liegt in einem sehr idyllischen kleinen Dorf. Im Nachbarort gibt es eine Bar und einen Bodega für Einkäufe des Täglichen Bedarfs. Die Vermieter sind unheimlich nett und geben sich alle Mühe, das die Gäste einen schönen Aufenthalt haben. Das Haus und Grundstück sind sehr gepflegt. Es ist sehr ruhig und man kann entspannen und am Pool liegen.

Tolles Haus
Wir haben mit einem befreundeten Pärchen und unseren Kindern zwei schöne Wochen in dem Haus verbracht. Das Objekt ist gut ausgestattet und super gepflegt. Alles ist neuwertig und wurde vor Kurzem renoviert. Alle Fenster waren mit Insektenschutz ausgestattet. Man benötigt definitv ein Auto. Restaurants und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten sind fußläufig nur schlecht zu erreichen. Der Pool mit separatem Poolhaus und Kühlschrank ist ein Highlight. Wir würden wieder kommen.

Wunderschöner Urlaub in der Nord Toskana
Das Haus ist frisch renoviert und sehr sauber. Es gibt sogar eine eLadesäule (es fehlen wohl noch ein paar Teile), die noch nicht in Betrieb ist. Der Pool und um den Pool herum ist es sehr sauber und auch der Vermieter kommt alle 1-2 Tage und sieht nach dem rechten und reinigt den Pool. Beim Pool gibt es noch ein Poolhaus, in dem die Auflagen für die Liegen und die Schirme verstaut sind + es gibt einen Kühlschrank, dadurch muss man nicht jedesmal ins Haus laufen um Getränke zu hohlen, sehr angenehm. Der nächste Bäcker befindet sich in einem kleinem Supermarkt in Casola, wo auch Frischwurst oder sonstiges noch gekauft werden kann. Der Vermieter kommt regelmässig und ansonsten ist auch die Kommunikation mit ihm (z.B. via Whats app) perfekt - er hat auch immer Tips auf Lager für Unternehmungen + er hat uns das ein oder andere "eingemachte" mitgebracht ! Die Küche ist perfekt und modern eingerichtet (nahezu neu) inkl. kaum abgenutzem Equipment. Die Lage ist etwas abgelegen in den Bergern der Nord Toskana - die Wege sind dadurch alle etwas länger. die nächste Autobahnauffahrt ist ca. 30 min entfernt und sehr kurvig - dafür wohnt man jedoch mitten in der Natur. Aber sobald man auf der Autobahn ist, hat man zugang zu den Perlen der Nord Toskana La Spezia (1h), Pisa (1 h) oder Cique Terre (1,5h) oder die Stränder bei Pisa - nahezu Perfekt. TIPP: rechtzeitig aufstehen und die Städte anfahren, dann hält sich der Touristische Trouble in Grenzen. Zu empfehlen wäre noch unbedingt das Restaurant Il Borghetto in Pieve san lorenzo (ca. 5 min. mit dem Auto) - unbedingt vorher reservieren und man kann auch bei schlechtem Wetter draussen sitzen (ist gut Überdacht). Wir machen "Ferienhaus" Urlaub seit ca. 8 Jahren, jedes Jahr, dieses Haus war definitiv eines der Besten, die wir hatten.

Wunderbare Urlaubstage in Villa Martini
Wunderschönes Ferienhaus in einem kleinen Dorf. Super eingerichtet, wir haben nichts vermisst. Neue Fenster mit Moskitoschutz, nagelneue Küche mit allem was man zum Kochen benötigt. Das Haus verfügt über eine Klimaanlage, die wir aber aufgrund der Beschaffenheit des Hauses gar nicht benötigt haben. Wunderbarer Garten mit schönen schattigen Sitzplätzen und einem tollen Pool mit perfekter Größe. Der Besitzer ist ein toller Gastgeber, immer ansprechbar, wenn man Fragen zu Ausflügen etc. hatte, der ganz diskret morgens den Pool morgens reinigt und uns frische Sachen aus seinem Garten mitgebracht hat. Dankeschön!! Das nächste Dorf ist zu Fuß schnell erreichbar, dort kann man wunderbar in der Bar La Torre Kaffee trinken. Es gibt einen kleinen Supermarkt der vieles für den täglichen Bedarf anbietet und eine Apotheke. Für den größeren Einkauf bietet sich Aulla an, in 20 Minuten mit dem Auto zu erreichen. Wir kommen gerne wieder!

Det hus går under huden på en. Fantastisk
Alt virkede som det skulle. Næsten. Masser af plads ude som inde. Smukke omgivelser. Ro. Nærværende udlejer. Lækker pool. Perfekt. Skal man påpege noget, så skal det siges det lille lokale supermarked er lukket. Så lidt længere vej til indkøb. Vi var 9 i huset, så et større eller et ekstra køleskab kunne være godt. Pizza-ovnen virker ikke. Men småting som på ingen måde har haft den store betydning - super lækkert. Do it!
