It has been completely renovated, tastefully furnished, and equipped with all comforts, including a Jacuzzi, for a relaxing stay in close contact with nature. It is also conveniently located near the most beautiful areas of Tuscany, such as Forte dei Marmi (35 km), Pisa (20 km), and Florence (90 km). From Casa Formentale, it is possible to embark on walks through the woods on hilly paths. At night, one can gaze at the starry sky. The farmhouse has 3 apartments, one on each floor. Casa Formentale is a 70 sqm apartment situated on the ground floor. Upon entering, there's an open space that includes a lounge, dining area, and kitchenette. The kitchen is equipped with 4 burners, a dishwasher, a refrigerator, an espresso machine, a kettle, and a juicer. From here, the rooms are located on both sides. On the right, there is a large double bedroom (1) with an attached bathroom. On the left, there is a small corridor with another bathroom, a wardrobe, and another bedroom (2) that can be used as a living room or as a second bedroom. There is a French window that leads to the private garden. In front of the entrance, there is a spacious patio (3x9m) that includes a dining area with a barbecue, as well as a relaxation area with sofas. The Jacuzzi is located in the olive grove and is shared with my family, but it is available for guests 24/7 from April to October. If you'd like, our dear friend and chef Vedant is available to prepare meals and dinners with menus of your choice for guests. He also offers small cooking classes where you can learn to make homemade pasta, tiramisu, ravioli, ragout, and many other typical Italian recipes. Costs can be discussed directly with Vedant. He is fluent in Italian, English, and German. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the apartment: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Wheelchair-accessible parking available ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Kitchenette - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop ### Dining - Chef service - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bidet - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - Games ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - 2 accessible parking spaces - Cobblestone flooring in public areas - Gravel flooring in public areas - No elevator (single-level property) - Single level property - Stair-free path to entrance - Tile flooring in public areas - Well-lit path to entrance - Wheelchair-accessible parking - Wheelchair-accessible path of travel - Designated smoking areas ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In the mountains ### Things to do - Table tennis ### Safety features - No carbon monoxide detector or gas appliances (host has indicated there are no carbon monoxide detectors or gas appliances on the property) - No smoke detector (host has indicated there is no smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - At least 80% of food locally-sourced - At least 80% organic food - Double-glazed windows - Eco-friendly toiletries - Garden - No plastic coffee stirrers - No plastic drinking straws - No plastic soft drink bottles - Recycling - Reusable cups - Reusable tableware - Unit size: 754 square feet - Vegan dining options - Vegetarian dining options ## Similar properties ![Fridge, oven, stovetop, dishwasher](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/35000000/34400000/34397600/34397521/f56b664c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Farmhouse surrounded by nature Lucca - Kitchen - Washer - Free WiFi - Air conditioning 9.8 Exceptional 42 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-20&endDate=2025-10-21&selected=34397521&PinnedHotelID=34397521&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33610000/33603300/33603274/ea3ce877.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Lovely Tuscan Farmhouse.

Aug 20, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fabulous stay at Casa Formentale We had a fabulous few days, the house was extremely comfortable and the location very peaceful with a lovely outside terrace to relax, Well situated for exploring Lucca and Pisa and the Garfagnana area too. Francesca was extremely helpful, recommending us where to buy local produce, and making sure we had everything we needed. The fresh tomatoes and olive oil were a lovely welcome. We would love to visit again some time and would thoroughly recommend a stay here. A car is essential though and drivers should be aware the last mile is steep with some tight bends, but well worth it for the views and wonderful location. Thank you again Francesca ##### Tricia G.
