About this property

Beautifully situated in a panoramic position in the heart of the Garfagnana, 1 hr 15 mins north of Lucca, Rustico Chiozza is a newly renovated house with its own pool, which is fenced and gated for security.

Just over 3.5km away is the busy village of Pieve Fosciana with all facilities except railway station which is at Castelnuovo. There are a couple of very good restaurants at Pieve Fosciana and plenty in Castelnuovo.

Up in the hills and only a 15 minute drive from the mountain peak village of San Pelligrino, this is a perfect place for those looking for a very peaceful holiday with lots of walking opporunities.

On the ground floor there is a small living room with SAT TV, DVD, and CD and a utility room with washing machine.

On the first floor there is a large kitchen/diner with great views, open fireplace, eating space for 6. Kitchen is fully equipped with oven, 5 ring hob, dishwasher, microwave, fridge/freezer, along with a twin bedroom and shower room. The kitchen area leads out to an eating terrace.

Outside there is a large open space/garden, with panoramic views over the mountains and a private pool of 9M x 4M which is gated for safety. BBQ. Pizza oven

Spectacular Views

We had a great relaxing holiday away from the hustle and bustle of tourist spots. The area is really amazing if you are looking to escape from it all. Alessandro and his family were very accommodating for any requests we had. The kids loved the pool (aged 14, 11 and 9) even though it was only waist high. The views from the pool were out of this world! The traditional farmhouse was very clean upon arrival and well equipped. We didn't get to see wild deer but we did have a regular bird of prey circling in the nearby fields and the kids got to see a real scorpion towards the end of the holiday! Highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a unique vacation stay.

Spectacular Views

We loved our stay so much we are definitely returning next year. The views are more spectacular than they show in any photograph - seeing is believing! We had a pair of deer come to the edge of the very large garden every night at twilight, and if we stayed still and quiet they came pretty close. Amazing. The hosts are very friendly and came to make sure we had everything we needed. Great place to stay. Ian and Jacky

Stunning location

Beautiful property, you have to be careful on the wooden staircase and be prepared for insect visitors of a night time, and you must wear shoes when crossing the grass to the pool as there are many bees in the heather, but other than that the house is heaven. It's in a stunning location with views to die for, the pool was fabulous and the house was fantastically well equipped. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again and loved every second. Highly recommend the pizzeria in Chozzia as well!

Lovely house in a stunning location

The house was set in the most stunning location, the views were incredible and make the house worth renting on their own. The house is a nice traditional property, it is very well equipped and has everything you might want on your holiday, the pizza oven was a lovely bonus and had lots of areas for relaxing. The pool was great for the kids and will plenty of land around the house there was lots of room for our children (4 & 7) to explore.

very relaxing

This was our 1st trip to Italy. We had a fantastic week here, family of 4 2 adults and 2 children aged 12 and 15. Kids loved the pool and wifi. Lovely weather helped! Used the bbq a few times but didn't try the pizza oven. The approach to the house is up a long winding road, if hiring a car a small one would be easier to manoever up the roads. We was a little sceptical about the pictures but can confirm that the view really is that great. The owner and his family greated us on the 1st night and returned mid week to do the necessities with the pool. Would definitley recommend
