Casa Pinocchio, a Luxury Country Apartment with Pool in Lucca

Only 6 units so very quiet. Only problem was unreliability of internet at times. Pool was well kept with lots of seating and shade covers. Roadway was a bit of a challenge to drive but we got proficient at driving it. Wished we had discovered little pizza restaurant earlier. It was on main road at bottom of driveway and called “Pizzeria Orlandi”. Be sure to have translator app as menu only in Italian!

This quaint apartment was ideal for four adults. Quiet surroundings and easy drivability to northern Tuscany. Silvana was amazing to work with and helped us find a local oil and wine tasting that was amazing. Only wish we could have stayed longer. Nothing, it was perfect.

Beautiful place to relax and make trips in the surroundings. The apartment is clean, spacious and gives a lot of privacy with the two bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. Pinocchio apartment is at the outside of the building you have your own, shaded place to sit outside. The swimming pool is nice has beautiful relax beds and seats, shadow places and a shower. This part of Tuscany we did not know yet and it is a nice part of Tuscany. We have had a wonderful time with 4 adults at . The trip to Lucca is only 25 minutes. The digital guide book works well and Martina our hostess is friendly and supports during our stay. With these warm temperatures an airco becomes almost necessary in the apartment. Please inform guests that the last 500 meters the road to the premises is unpaved and has some challenges. This is nice to know upfront.

We had a lovely stay. The apartment was really comfortable and the grounds were beautiful. Would definitely stay there again.

Great apartment and a very beautiful location. Friendly hosts and very clean.

We had a super week in Tuscany. Property is lovely - and nicely equipped. Jim was excellent - so many thanks. Graham

We have just returned yesterday from a wonderfully relaxing 10 day stay in Il Borghetto, and cannot praise it enough. The ride up the track made us realise just how hidden it was, but was well worth it. We arrived in a thunder storm, but Jim was ready with umbrellas and a wonderful welcome for us. The storm passed quickly and warm weather resumed for the rest of our stay. The cosy, clean apartment had everything we needed for a comfortable stay, and was just what 2 work weary couples needed to re-charge our batteries! The house has been beautifully renovated, and is a credit to Jim, who obviously put his heart into turning a very run down, but lovely old house back into somewhere that is very much loved and tasteful. The pool was a very welcome addition with great views up towards the tiny village, which is an easy 20 minute walk up from the house. It was lovely to wander round on the Sunday as there were some craft stalls heading up towards the church, and we had a good meal in the very pretty garden at the back of the cafe/bar ( drinks only at the front in the covered area) It's a great base to explore from, Lucca is a great to spend a day, as is the old town in Pistoia, Montecarlo is tiny quaint village worth visiting for a good meal and beautiful views, and if you want to see the hillside villages of the Cinque Terre, for a better experience than the train we suggest you go by boat from Port Venere. Jim is a lovely man and the 'font of all knowledge' regarding places to go and couldn't have been more helpful, with information for us when we said where we were thinking of going and also with booking a table at a family run restaurant nearby, so a big thank you for making our stay even better. If its a tranquil hideaway you're after, then this is it! Thank you Jim, from your very chilled out guests Sue, Kev, Julie and Bernard

Beautiful apartment in terrific location. Modern, clean, pastoral, convenient, quiet.

We had a great week in Casa Pinocchio and found it very comfortable and well equipped. The property is very peaceful and surrounded by beautiful scenery. Our three year old had great fun in the garden; it was too cold to go in the pool but we could imagine it would be fantastic in warmer months. Jim was a great host and was very helpful both before and during our stay promptly answering any questions we had via email and giving tips for the local area. We would definitely recommend a stay at Il Borghetto!

This was our first time abroad and we couldn't have gone to a more beautiful villa!! The apartment was perfect for two people. It was spotless and perfectly maintained. Jim and Debbie were phenomenal hosts; warm and helpful with every aspect of our trip. Lucca is charming and although we rented a car, the villa is located quite close to train stations, restaurants and coffee shops. We look forward to returning to this magnificent Tuscany villa in the near future and will absolutely highly recommend staying here to all our friends and family!!!
