We spent one week at the Stone Villa. There are many many good things to say about the place as well as Franco and his family. We have three children aged 7. 5 and 3 and it was the perfect place for them. You open the door in the morning and the kids do what they want, you don't have to supervise them. And there's lots to do for them. The boys loved the small football pitch with goals, there is table tennis table football and the pool. We used the pool the first two days before the temperatures dropped. It's very large and even has a small springboard. Franco put some toys out for the girl and she spent the whole day playing with them. One morning she came running telling us that new toys have been put out. The stone house itself is really nicely decorated. Everything is thought through, you feel more in a hotel than in a vacation rental. Plenty of towels, bath robes, really well equipped kitchen and everything in style. And they have everything, don't go buying toiletries, washing tabs. detergent etc. It's all there. And a lot of extras like a bottle of wine, morning pastries and so on. And if you need anything, Franco and family are on the property so there is always help around. The house is in a good location, no view from the property itself but you can reach many nice places within 45 minutes or less driving distance: Pisa, Lucca (totally worth a long visit, much nicer then Pisa, we loved it), Montecarlo nearby for a stroll or a lunch/dinner, the Pinocchio park and the Gardoni gardens, a trip to the sea etc.
We had a really enjoyable stay, you feel that Franco and family are proud of their place and they do everything they can to make you feel welcome and that you are at complete ease.
