A little about the area:Please note that automated distance information can be misleading in rural areas. Although some places may appear close “as the crow flies,” walking routes are often impractical.


From Casa Capannina you can take a safe walk to the local village of Camporgiano and enjoy a morning coffee, lunch or dinner, pizza etc and when you have the car there is a supermarket there too.

Just across the valley is the stunningly located fortress of Verrucole, which you can see from the garden in the distance, and also the zip wire park which is great fun for both children and adults, and ideal for a day in the welcome shade! You can also picnic and BBQ here if you want to make a day of it.

The local attractive market town of Castelnuovo, famous for its Thursday morning markets, and with all facilities is just a 15 minute drive. This town has bars, restaurants, gelaterias, and a river...In high season the town really comes alive, and often hosts outdoor evening entertainment.

The beautiful mediaeval town of Barga with its cobbled streets, renowned restaurants, Cathedral and stunning views is a 40 minute drive, and often there is free live music here.

Lucca, with its fully intact walls can't be missed for a day out and cycling around the walls is a firm favourite with day trippers and locals alike. Here, spend the day meandering in the shady streets, sitting in the open piazzas, dining al fresco, climbing towers, visiting the Opera (this is the birthplace of Puccini) or just shopping!

The Grotta del Vento, the famous Wind Caves is also a family favourite...

There is lots to do if you wish, but the real beauty of the area is the countryside and the scattering of small villages wherever you go....Just relax!

Beautiful setting with amazing views. A very peaceful week with visits from wild boar, deer, foxes and a couple of cats. The house is well equipped especially the kitchen. The covered outdoor room on the first floor was a great place to shelter from the hot sun or the thunderstorms (which were great to watch rolling in over the mountains). Lots of places to visit nearby (by car) but we mainly spent the time reading and cooling off in the lovely pool. Definitely recommend the house and local area.

it was a wonderful stay. the house is well kept, the pool big and cleaned every day, big garden perfect for playing. very silent and the view into the mountains is magnificient. Perfect stay for people who love hiking and nature. Loretta and Renzo are perfect hosts. But you need your time to come to historic sites and cities.

Beautiful setting, great gardens and pool. The house is spacious and airy with lots of different areas to sit, eat and explore. The villa isn't really walking distance to the village and the unmade road can be difficult to drive especially after heavy rain. There needs to be some modifications to the house, it's all very traditional and brown and the gas hob takes forever to heat up (boiling a kettle is a 20 minute job). The beds are pretty uncomfortable but apart from that it was a lovely villa for us to stay in and the owners are lovely and speak a little English.

We enjoyed a wonderful two weeks with our two adult children at Villa Loretta. The setting is spectacular and Renzo and Loretta were lovely hosts, very discreet but friendly and helpful. Renzo keeps the beautiful pool and gardens immaculate with a daily early visit. There was a generous supply of towels and everything was homely, very clean and tidy. There were plenty of sun loungers with cushions and parasols and loads of shady spots around the garden and under the pergola. We made use of the various outside areas and the pizza oven but the elevated eating area was out favourite with light breezes and stunning views. We made regular trips into the welcoming village, a short but steep walk. It was very safe, our adult children would head into the village for morning coffee or in the evening to the pizzeria or sports bar. Prices in the village were exceptional compared to the tourist spots. We were able to visit Pisa, Lucca and Florence. A car is essential as the setting is rural but the views from the villa are breathtaking. We spent evenings watching fireflies in the garden, watching spectacular electric storms, enjoying eagles soaring and listening to cuckoos in the wood. All the family returned home rested and we would all love to use this wonderful property again.

We stayed 14 days at Loretta & Renzos house, just after the reopening of Italy. It was a wonderfull vacation. The communication with the owners is easy. They are friendly and helpfull. The images are surpassed by reality, this is a great place - we will be back.

Villa Loretta is a fabulous, spacious rustic property with a large, very clean pool and well maintained gardens. Renzo and Loretta were so warm and friendly. We felt part of the family and locality. The elevated eating area with stunning views across the valley was a particular feature. I agree with other reviews, the photos are unable to to capture the beauty and peace of this lush valley. We would definitely visit again!

Our stay at Camporgiano was wonderful, and the property comes exactly as advertised, a gem in an exquisite section of Tuscany. The directions in were helpful, but we still needed some assistance from a local to get to the property. A sign at the "wheelie bins" and again up the road at the fork in the road by the older empty house would have been helpful,but we found our way there. The villa is spacious, well-equipped and Lorenzio was wonderful in welcoming us and answering any questions we had. The pool was a bonus, as the weather was unseasonably hot for the middle of September. The location is a bit remote, although we grew to love that about it. The quiet and relaxing atmosphere was a time of great enjoyment. Exploring the surrounding towns and down to Lucca was a treat, although driving in Italy takes some adjusting! We can recommend the property highly, and hope someday to return.
