The house needs to be updated. Electricity needs to be updated. Really only suitable for 8 people
The house was in a beautiful setting. Easy to find as the German flag with Eagle on was flying from the flag pole in front of property. Unfortunately the walls of the house were damp and the ground floor (some bedrooms) was damp. Bed was damp. Signs of damp both on internal walls and external walls where they had been painted over, but paint was bubbling up/flaking off where damp was particularly bad. Good area for exploring Lucca and surrounding villages. Electricity supply to the house was a major problem as if we had two or more electrical items on at any one time, the fuse would continually trip. An upgrade to the electrics is urgently needed. Hot water supply was sometimes a problem to the kitchen sink. Although house advertised for up to 10 people, it really is suitable for 8. Only 8 sunbeds and 8 bed towels at the property. House easy to find as German flag flies high at the front of the house, along with statue of an Eagle. Basically the house was clean on arrival, but pictures, ornaments and cobwebs could have been attended to. A bit dusty. Lovely pool setting and walks around the grounds. The owners of the house gave us some wine as a goodwill gesture for our annoyance with the things as mentioned. Main concern was however the dampness and electrics. It has not put us off going to Italy, as we have been many times before staying in villas at various locations.;
