Toller Aufenthalt
Wir waren zwei Wochen in der Unterkunft. Die Zeit dort war sehr schön und erholsam. Der kurze Weg zum Eisladen war für das Portemonnaie gefährlich. Wir haben fast jeden Tag dort gegessen. Die Kommunikation mit der Agentur war super. Immer erreichbar und immer eine Lösung parat. Auch die Eigentümerin durften wir kennenlernen. Auch sehr angenehm.
Das Haus liegt sehr ruhig und ist sehr geräumig. (Wir waren zu sechst + Hund.)

Ein guter Ort zum Entspannen
Die Villa Matilde ist ein guter Ort zum Entspannen. Das Haus ist sauber, der Blick von der Terrasse wunderschön. Die Kommunikation mit Loretta war sehr gut und verlässlich, im Haus und im Außenbereich hat alles funktioniert. Es gibt sehr schöne Bergdörfer in der Umgebung, die einen Besuch lohnen (Barga z.B.); nach Pisa & Lucca braucht man ca. eine Stunde mit dem Auto. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und Restaurants sind in der Nähe, ein Auto ist empfehlenswert. Wir haben den Urlaub sehr genossen - viele Dankesgrüße nach Italien.
