About this farm stay rental

The perfect holiday home for a large family gathering or a group of friends. Accommodation is split between the farmhouse, La Fattoria and the self contained apartment, La Stalla, 80 metres away. The facilities are shared, including a large, lavender fringed salt water pool, a ping-pong table, a boules court, a yoga deck and hammocks all of them set in extensive, private grounds on an organic farm.

La Fattoria provides beautiful comfort in its lovingly restored traditional Garfagnana farmhouse which includes 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
Relax in a hammock with a good book from the extensive library, have a game of table tennis or lawn boules, wander through the many terraces and chestnut groves or contemplate a little peace on the hill top yoga deck. Should your passion be cooking, the kitchen is well equipped and there is seasonal organic vegetables available on site.
The house is well appointed with a comfortable sitting room, wisteria-covered dining terraces, a huge BBQ and a beautiful ancient pizza oven. There are 4 elegant bedrooms and 2 bathrooms on the 1st floor with an additional bedroom and bathroom on the ground floor.
La Stalla is an elegant, ground floor apartment in the owners' house up the hill from La Fattoria.
The large bedrooms each have huge double or twin beds and antique furniture.
The bathroom has a big wet area shower, WC, bidet and basin.
All linen, towels and pool towels are provided.
The sitting room is comfortably furnished and includes a wood burning stove, a writing desk, a range of books, Ipod dock and games.
The small sunny kitchen is sufficiently equipped for most culinary adventures and opens out onto a private terrace.
There are spectacular views from every room and a delightful rose covered loggia with dining table that seats 4 and reclining chairs to snooze away the afternoons.
La Stalla apartment is only available taken with the farmhouse during July and August.

Local shops and restaurants are minutes away but should you wish to be delighted there is a resident chef who can prepare a candlelit dinner on the terrace especially for you. Alternatively, she can offer a riot of colour and flavour in a family pizza night.
The owners, Ailsa and Jamie Reynolds live up the hill and are happy to offer advice - where to shop, what to see, book restaurants and galleries and generally help you have a memorable holiday whilst respecting your privacy. A shopping service is available if you want to arrive at the house to find your fridge packed with local goodies.
Cooking classes and guided walks are available on request.
Col di Lavacchio truly is the perfect place to explore the magic of this timeless slice of Tuscany.

The property did not live up to its advertisement and was not as described. We were highly disappointed when we moved in. All the food went off overnight because their unfit-for-purpose fridge was at 18C. It was a health and safety risk and a potentially life-threatening situation if we ate from it. The kitchen had ants, the beds were unmade, and the oven wouldn't start. When I asked for bed linen, Ailsa, the owner, refused, saying she was busy entertaining guests at her house, so we couldn't cook our lunch because she could not start the oven and was occupied with her friends. The other house we paid for offered my guests a rundown, dirty apartment. The filthy pool was full of insects and lizards. The loungers were old and ripped, and the pool umbrellas corroded. When we talked to Ailsa, we felt let down. She initially asked us to leave, displaying a lack of professional responsibility. It seemed like she cared more about our money than addressing property issues. The next day, she offered a £4000 refund but only gave us £3,382.00 and blamed Vrbo for taking a huge commission. We spent over £5000 for three nights and had a terrible experience. This forced us to find alternative accommodation, causing significant financial loss and the inconvenience of finding a new place at short notice. It's a shame that the property doesn't live up to its 'rustic' description. We feel misled and expect a full refund. We have photographic evidence to support our claims if needed.
