If you have found a vacation rental in Pistoia and are spending time exploring the surrounding area and the beautiful, lush landscape of this part of Tuscany, then there is one special little spot that is perfect for those who want to get a little off the more traditional beaten tourist path for international visitors. While famous among locals and other Tuscans, the Ponte Sospeso di San Marcello Pistoiese is likely unheard of to most foreign tourists. Therefore, you can expect busy crowds on weekends but you’re going to take in something a little more unusual and that you didn’t expect to find.

Guest Reviews for Le Panche
Das Haus liegt sehr ruhig und weit oben auf einem Berg. Die Fahrt vom Städtchen im Tal dorthin dauert ca. 20 - 25 Minuten. Es sieht alles so aus, wie auf den Bildern abgebildet.
Die Reinigungsgebühr von 70 € merkt man auf jeden Fall, es ist alles sehr sauber im Haus!
Die Besitzer sind super nett, haben uns mit hausgemachtem Wein, Honig und Olivenöl begrüßt und uns öfter mit Obst aus dem Garten versorgt. Auf den Gemüse- und Kräutergarten durften wir ebenso zugreifen!
Alles in allem sehr schön und gemütlich dort!
Die einzigen zwei Mankos waren, dass wir ein alleinstehendes Haus ohne weitere Menschen gesucht haben. Wir dachten auch, dass wir das mit diesem Haus gefunden haben. Direkt nebenan haben aber die Eltern von den Besitzern gewohnt (ich denke, es waren die Eltern). Die Besitzer hatten ihr Haus oberhalb und kamen täglich um kurz im Garten zu arbeiten. Alle Personen dort sind wirklich sehr nett, aber alleine ist man eben nicht!
Das zweite kleinere Übel war das W-Lan. Der Empfang war teilweise schlecht und die Besitzerin meinte, man soll damit keine Filme oder Videos schauen, da sie es sonst öfter aufladen muss und das recht kostspielig ist.
Es war für uns trotzdem ein schöner Urlaub und es waren zwei tolle und ruhige Wochen!
(English translation - The house is very quiet and high on a mountain. The drive from the town in the valley takes about 20 - 25 minutes. It all looks like in the pictures.
The cleaning fee of 70 € you notice in any case, it is all very clean in the house!
The owners are super nice, greeted us with homemade wine, honey and olive oil and more often supplied us with fruit from the garden. We were also allowed to access the vegetable and herb garden!
All in all, very nice and comfortable there!
The only two shortcomings were that we were looking for a single house without more people. We also thought that we found this with this house. Right next door live the owners parents (I think it was the parents). The owners had their house above and came every day for a short time to work in the garden. All the people there are really nice, but you are not alone!
The second minor shortcoming was the Wi-Fi. The reception was partly bad and the owner said, you should not watch any movies or videos, as they usually have to recharge more often and that is quite expensive.
It was still a nice holiday for us and two great and quiet weeks!)Would you recommend this property to a friend? Yes
