The cottage is set within a mature, well-maintained garden, cared for by the friendly owner, Giancarlo. At the side of the two-bedroom cottage, a lovely covered veranda provides stunning views over the Serchio Valley and the surrounding hills, offering an ideal spot to relax. The front of the house faces the village, just a few minutes' walk away, as well as the impressive Apuan Mountain range. For outdoor enthusiasts, Le Lunghe is perfectly situated near various hiking routes, making it an ideal location for hillwalkers. During the summer months, the local village hosts two vibrant festivals. The Medieval Festival features a historical re-enactment and additionally, the Food and Wine Tour to the Rocca di Sassi, showcasing the area's culinary and cultural heritage, is a highlight for visitors. On the lawn, a 3.5-meter diameter, 90cm deep lightweight swimming pool offers a refreshing place to cool off, while a paved terrace and shaded dining area complete the outdoor space. The cottage has been carefully restored and extended to preserve its charm. The ground floor features a fully equipped dining kitchen made from reclaimed chestnut wood, complete with an original stone fireplace and wood-burning stove. The living room offers a comfortable sofa, TV, stereo, and a selection of books, and leads out to the covered veranda. A large bathroom with a shower and washing machine completes this level. Upstairs, there are two double bedrooms: one with a double bed and the other with twin beds or a double, providing flexibility for guests. Le Lunghe’s serene setting is perfect for those seeking peace and solitude, yet it is just a few minutes' walk to the medieval village of Sassi, where you'll find an excellent restaurant and a small shop. A newly completed road allows for easy access to the nearby market town of Castelnuovo di Garfagnana, now only a 10-minute drive away. Castelnuovo offers a variety of restaurants, cafés, bars, shops, and a vibrant weekly market. The town is also home to a train station providing convenient links to Lucca and beyond. By car, you can reach Lucca in 50 minutes, Pisa and its airport in 1.5 hours, Florence in 2 hours, and the stunning coastal villages of Cinque Terre in 2.5 hours. For a beach day, the nearest sandy shore is just over an hour away.

Furthermore it was excellent. The bed and the shower ( nice hot ). The steep road to the house was a challenge but to do. The kitchen is fully equipped. There was even a washing machine.

The house was also very atmospheric with a range of tables with fantastic views of the Garfagnana to eat at and an outdoor barbecue which we made much use of. The restaurant in the nearby village of Sassi (Il Totto) is easily walkable and does one of the most authentic Italian three or four course dining experiences you could wish for. We almost literally rolled back down the hill afterwards. The star turn however is Giancarlo, both for the breakast pastries he generously provided for us and his willingness to drive our luggage up to the road at the end of the week when I was unwilling to risk doing so in the hire car. ##### David G.

I can't even begin to describe the view from the property, it's simply amazing and we had it all to ourselves. The peace and quiet of the area was beyond expectation, we spent a whole month there and couldn't be happier. Giancarlo not only checked in on us to make sure everything was perfect, he became our family in that short time. We will miss Le Lunghe and Giancarlo dearly and will be back next year!

Het ligt in de buurt van een heel klein dorpje midden in de bergen. Het adres wat we van Molly doorkregen was Le Vigne en de rest van het adres. Bij Le Vigne aangekomen na eerst stuiterend met de auto van een super steil paadje de berg af, wisten de twee Italiaanse vrouwen niet wat we bij hen zochten. Terug naar boven gekropen met de auto. Verschillende paadjes geprobeerd, bij een huisje een eindje verderop gekeken of er iemand thuis was… niets. Ondertussen twee uur later aan de kant van de weg overlegd.. wat te doen. Friends of Tuscany waren telefonisch niet meer te bereiken. Toen… kwam er een man aanlopen, hij zei mijn naam. De huisbaas! Hij was ons aan het zoeken !

Der Vermieter spricht nur italienisch, ist aber sehr freundlich und bemüht. Schaut regelmäßig vorbei, ohne aufdringlich zu sein. Für große Naturliebhaber ist es toll: Im Garten kann man auch schon mal Rehe beobachten. Gleichzeitig sollte man keine Angst vor Skorpionen im Haus und Wespennestern unter dem Terrassentisch haben. Eben sehr naturnah. Dementsprechend ist der Pool nicht immer gut nutzbar. Zu bestimmten Tageszeiten sind so viele Bremsen und Wespen unterwegs, dass man den Pool kaum genießen kann. Bis zum Strand in Viareggio benötigt man ca. 1,5 Stunden. Ebenso nach Pisa. Die ersten 20 bis 30 Minuten fährt man dabei durchgehend Serpentinen. Die Zufahrtsstraße zum Haus ist die größte Herausforderung. Ohne Allradantrieb durchaus problematisch. Es handelt sich um eine steile, enge Schotterstraße, die bei leichtem Regen kaum zu bewältigen ist. Wir sind mit einem kaputten Reifen davon gekommen. ##### Barbara D.

La casina di Giancarlo ha soddisfatto in pieno le nostre aspettative. I punti di forza sono, il panorama, il silenzio, lo splendido giardino, la pulizia, e il letto: mai dormito meglio in vacanza. Un solo punto debole: la strada. Noi siamo stati sfortunati perché ha piovuto molto e ha reso la strada, già non tanto bella, particolarmente difficile da ripercorrere per uscire.

La maison est simple, propre et confortable. Le petit jardin, les différentes tables/chaises et la vue invitent a la détente et la petite piscine est parfaite pour se rafraîchir. Le gentil propriétaire habite la maison voisine et vient régulièrement voir si tout va bien. La communication est cependant restée très limitée car il ne parle qu’italien. Nous avons ainsi été un peu frustré au début du séjour de ne pas avoir une présentation rapide des équipements de la maison et des bases (poubelles, chemins d’accès..) que nous avons du découvrir par nous-mêmes. Peut-être que cela pourrait être ajouté dans le guide envoyé par Friends Tuscany par ailleurs très complet sur les choses à faire dans les environs ? Il nous semble que deux points pourraient être clairement améliorés : -Mentionnée dans de nombreux commentaires précédents depuis plusieurs années : la route d’accès à la maison. Celle-ci devrait VRAIMENT faire l’objet de travaux prochainement car actuellement des tiges de fer (servant a maintenir le béton) sortent du sol a plusieurs endroits sur 50 mètres. L’étroitesse et la pente du chemin fait qu’il est impossible de les éviter. Même en faisant très attention nous avons éraflé l’un de nos pneus au moment du départ… Il existe évidemment l’option de se garer au village mais avec des jeunes enfants, le fait de marcher 15 minutes a travers les champs et les bois avec tous les bagages (Et surtout la nuit) n’est pas envisageable. -après le depart de chaque vacancier, il faudrait que l’agence ou le propriétaire puisse vérifier le matériel à disposition: (quelques objets en partie cassés: aspirateur, chaise de jardin, plat en plastique...) et le kit de cuisine de base (il ne restait ni sel, ni huile d’olive, ni thé ou café, pratique quand on arrive et qu’on ne connait pas encore la cafetière à disposition). Malgré ces deux points, cette maison reste idéale pour passer une bonne semaine au calme dans un endroit magnifique ! ##### Cyrille D. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michelle M. Aug 3, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### erholsame Tage zu zweit Wir haben eine Woche im Ferienhaus von Giancarlo verbracht. Das Haus war praktisch eingerichtet und die Lage wunderschön! Unser Auto war nicht geeignet für das letzte Stück Strasse, deshalb hat uns Giancarlo abgeholt und am Abreisetag auch wieder zu unserem Auto gebracht. Giancarlo war sehr zuvorkommend und hilfsbereit. Obwohl wir kein Italienisch sprechen konnten wir uns einigermassen verständigen. Wir haben die Tage sehr genossen und uns gut erholt. ##### Michelle M.

We chose the property with a wish list in mind: Scenery, tranquility, food, and wine. And we got it all, in spades. We had most meals under the rustic lean-to because we could look at the hills and mountains to the west, north and east. The garden is beautifully kept. There were trees with apples, pears, figs, olives and Giancarlo has a tomato vine which he encouraged us to pick. I mean, we are talking real, big, funny-shaped proper tomatoes. Delicious. As if that wasn't enough there were large rosemary bushes that went on the chicken on the BBQ and a sage that found its way into the vitello escallops we fried. Marsala wine at under 5 euros a bottle made it for an amateur's saltimbocca. Giancarlo, the host who lives next door (I use the term next door loosely) is a great fellow. Often checked to see we were ok but not in the least intrusive. The house is a restored farmhouse and all the plumbing, electrics, water, gas etc is bang up to date. TV is good and the wi-fi is excellent Shopping is easy in the huge Conad supermarket down the hill in Gallicano. The local restaurant, Il Totto, we went to four times in the week. They don't run a menu, just what they have fresh on the day. I had the best ever sliced steak in oil and balsamic sauce and we still savour the home-made ravioli with spinach and ricotta. The track down to the house is interesting but totally do-able. Our hire car, a humble 1.2litre Lancia which I dubbed "entrail-free" (gutless) made it up and down every day. In many ways this review doesn't do justice to the property. That's because it is so hard to describe serenity and mountain views. We were totally smitten by the variety of wildlife: goats, deer, friendly lizards, butterflies. In the evenings we liked to hear the owls call to each other and the sound of crickets after the sun went down. ##### Eric W. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Helen M.

Wenn man Ruhe und Entspannung sucht ist man hier genau richtig. Die Aussicht auf die umliegenden Natur und die Berge sind überragend. Im nahe gelegenen Dorf Sassi lässt sich besonders das Restaurant Il Totto erwähnen, bei welchem man absolut authentisch essen gehen kann. Wir haben uns hier sehr wohl gefühlt und wären gerne noch geblieben. Auch der Eigentümer Giancarlo ist ein äußerst herzliche Gastgeber. ##### Sebastian R.

Und dabei das Restaurant nur fußläufig entfernt! ##### Nadja S. Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Nick G. Feb 13, 2019 #### Interior needs updating and a good clean value for money totally over priced Nicely isolated very quiet. Nice views the track to the villa is very daunting and needs attention ok in 4x4 but anything else is a struggle if any problems English speaking woman not to helpful. Needs outside rubbish bin as have to take rubbish up to village 15 min walk or drive on daunting track house needs a good clean top to bottom cobwebs dead spiders dirty cooker and plenty of dust lamp shades filthy furniture fit for bonfire. It could be very nice. Sort it out home and away totally overpriced ##### Nick G.
