Guestbook
A beautiful house, lovingly restored to a luxurious standard we had a wonderful week in this superb villa, decorated to a very high standard the antique and modern furnishings complement each other beautifullly, and all the extra touches make the difference betwen a great holiday and a truely fantastic one.
We really appreciated the advise on how to get about and where to eat. The villa is well stocked with maps, DVD's, books, toys for the younger kids and wine for the older kids !. The locals are very friendly and many a morning was spent in one of the local cafes sipping coffee (latte macchiato) and eating delicious pastries (try paste con riso). All of us enjoyed many days out including the Carnivale at Viareggio (February), great fun. Sledging in the mountains at Val De Luce, having a picnic on the beach at Lido De Camaiore and visiting the leaning Tower at Pisa. There is such a wide variety of things to do and see, that a week is not long enough. Many thanks to Jo and Antonio for such a wonderful welcome and all their help and hospitality throughout the week.
