New Review Submitted for Il Palazzetto located in Castelnuovo Di Garfagnana, Tuscany, Italy.

Rental Date: Saturday 30th of July 2011.
Renter Rating: 4/5.
Review Details:
We hadden een goed verblijf in "il Palazetto". De verhuurders zijn erg aardig. Ze zijn er als je ze nodig zou hebben en hebben ons laten proeven van producten uit eigen tuin. De inrichting van het huisje is eenvoudig maar goed. Met 5-6 personen is het goed toeven. (7 is ook wel mogelijk) De woonkamer/ keuken is niet zo groot, maar wij hebben vooral buiten geleefd onder en om de tentluifel. Het uitzicht vanuit de tuin is geweldig. Genieten van het zicht op de Appenijnen en de ondergaande zon achter het Fort aan de overkant. Carfagnana heeft een centrale functie in het dal en heeft daardoor goede voorzieningen. Vanaf het huisje is het 10-15 min. lopen naar winkels etc. In de omgeving zijn plaatsen als Lucca, Pisa en Pistoia goed te bereiken en de moeite waard. De Appenijnen en het Apuaanse gebergte biedt veel wandelmogelijkheden. POI's zijn: Grotto del Vento, Parco del Levigliese (klimmen, Canyoning, kanoën), Lago di Vagli (met verdronken dorp), Passo del Vestito (richting kustplaatsen en langs marmergroeven) etc. etc.

[English translation courtesy of Easy Reserve] We had a good stay in "Il Palazetto". The owners are very nice. They are there when you need them and let us a try their home grown vegetables. The interior of the cottage is simple but good. With 5-6 people is a nice place. (7, it also possible). The living room / kitchen is not big, but we have mostly lived outside under the tent. The view from the garden is great. Enjoying the view of the Apennines and the sun setting behind the Fortress across the street. Carfagnana has a central function in the valley and therefore has good facilities. From the house it is 10-15 mins walk to shops etc in the area are places like Lucca, Pisa, Pistoia, easily reachable and worthwhile. The Apennines and the Apuan mountains offer many hiking possibilities. POIs include Grotto del Vento, Parco del Levigliese (climbing, canyoning, canoeing), Lago di Vagli (drowned village), Passo del Vestito (towards coastal towns and along marble quarries), etc.

New Review Submitted for Agriturismo S. Agata: Michele located in Castiglion Fiorentino, Tuscany, Italy.

Rental Date: Saturday 30th of July 2011.
Renter Rating: 5/5.
Review Details:
Wir waren zu dritt für 2 Wochen in dieser Unterkunft, speziell im Haus "Michele" (vermutlich nach dem ältesten Sohn der Gastgeberfamilie benannt). Es hat uns sehr gut gefallen, auch wenn die Anfahrt recht anspruchsvoll ist. Ich empfehle einen Wagen mit Automatikgetriebe, es sei denn man ist gut im Anfahren auf Bergen.
Die Familie Bernardini ist eine sehr nette Familie. Sie haben vier reizende Kinder. Diese spielten auch mit unserer Tochter bzw. mit uns. Das gemeinsame Spielen aller Kinder aus allen angereisten Nationen war sehr schön. Der Pool ist groß und ausreichend für alle. Man kann dort trotz vorhandener Kinder (wem so etwas stören sollte) sehr ruhige Tage verbringen.
Die Unterkunft ist sehr schön.
Vielen Dank auch noch einmal an Roberta Bernardini für die vielen gemeinsamen Essen aller Gäste.
Die Unterkunft können wir 300-%ig weiterempfehlen.
Wir waren im August 2011 dort.

[English translation courtesy of Easy Reserve] The three of us stayed for 2 weeks at this property, in the unit called Michele (presumably named after the oldest son of the host family). We have thoroughly enjoyed it, even if the road to get there is quite challenging. I recommend a car with automatic transmission, unless you are good at pulling away on hills.
The Bernardini family is a very nice family. They have four lovely children. They played with our daughter. The children off all nations that played together was very nice. The pool is large enough for everybody. You can spend some calm days there despite the presence of children (for those who should be disturbed by such a thing). The accommodation is very nice. Many thanks again to Roberta Bernardini for the dinner we had together with all guests.
We can 300 % recommend this accommodation. We were there in August 2011.
