About this property

Amongst Mediterrenean perfumes and colours, W/pool, garden,private parking

At the edge of splendid Tuscany, almost on the border with Liguria, a few steps from the sea and the Apennine mountains, surrounded by lush nature, lies THE FARMHOUSE an enchanting holiday home that offers its guests a short break from life daily.
THE FARMHOUSE can sleep up to 9 guests in an oasis of tranquility immersed in a paradise of Mediterranean scents and colours. Located between Lucca and Pisa, two cities rich in history and culture, this holiday home is the ideal place to relax and enjoy the wonders that Tuscany has to offer.
As soon as you cross the threshold of THE FARMHOUSE you are greeted by a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The interiors are furnished with care and taste, drawing inspiration from local colors and traditions. The walls recall the surrounding nature: outside, centuries-old olive trees, lemons and citrus fruits, colorful flowers that give vitality and joy to the spaces.
The rooms are spacious and bright. The furnishings are simple and comfortable, designed to make guests feel at home but away from it. Every detail has been carefully taken care of, to guarantee an unforgettable experience.
Tuscan cuisine is a true culinary treasure. Here, the traditional flavors of local cuisine mix with fresh, quality ingredients, coming directly from local gardens. Many dishes are prepared with love and passion, following recipes handed down for generations. Guests can enjoy specialties in the village such as Tordelli, Torta di Pizzi, Cecina and much more, accompanied by local wines yet to be discovered by the masses such as Lucca's red Montecarlo or Luni's white Vermentino.
Outside, THE FARMHOUSE is surrounded by a lush garden. The olive, citrus, pine and cypress plants typical of the Tuscan landscape create an atmosphere of peace and relaxation. It is the ideal place to spend pleasant moments in the shade of centuries-old trees, stroll among the scents of flowers and perhaps even enjoy a romantic candlelit dinner on the terrace.
The strategic position of THE FARMHOUSE allows you to easily reach numerous places of interest nearby. Both art and culture lovers, as well as excursions and water sports enthusiasts will find a wide choice of activities to do here. The sandy beaches of Viareggio, Marina di Pietrasanta or Lido di Camaiore and the ancient wonders of Lucca and Pisa are just a few kilometers away.
THE FARMHOUSE amongst perfumes and colors of the Mediterranean, is much more than a simple holiday home: it is a complete experience that embraces body, mind and soul. Here, the warmth of Tuscan hospitality combines with the beauty of nature, creating a unique and magical environment in which to relax and regenerate.

Aussergewöhnliche Aussicht auf die Berge der Toskana

Das Haus liegt abgelegen im Grünen. Es hat einen kleinen, aber feinen Pool, indem man mit den Kindern den Tag angenehm verbringen kann. Die Aussicht auf die umliegenden Berge ist atemberaubend. Während man auf der Terasse sitzt ist man umgeben von Orangenbäumen, Blumen und sehr viel anderen Grün. Dies ist wundervoll. Das Haus selbst hat alles was man benötigt. Für uns persönlich war die Lage etwas zu abgelegen, da man wirklich für alles das Auto benötigt. Aber die Ungebung ist wunderschön und wen das nicht stört, der ist hier genau richtig.

Séjour de rêve

Notre séjour à la "Polletta" a été très agréable. Même lors des plus chaudes journées, la grande maison a conservé toute sa fraîcheur. Les autres logements sont éloignés, on ne se marche pas dessus. Et la piscine est suffisamment grande pour accueillir plusieurs familles. Nous avons pris tous nos repas en terrasse, y compris les petits-déjeuners. La proximité de la piscine et des lits bains de soleil est un vrai plus. Stefano est un hôte attentionné, qui répond à toute question de manière claire et dans un excellent français. Le mot "service" fait indéniablement partie de son vocabulaire. L'entretien du jardin, de la piscine, des arbustes est effectué quotidiennement par une personne qui est toujours disponible pour un renseignement, et qui a toujours un petit mot gentil en passant, tout en restant discrète. La région est évidemment superbe et les visites à faire sont nombreuses (Cinque Terre, Pise, Lucques, Florence, la Garfagnana, les plages, ...) Location à recommander sans l'ombre d'une hésitation !

Formidable

Nous avons passé 2 excellentes semaines en famille dans la maison la Polletta. La maison est très accueillante, propre et soignée. La terrasse est très confortable et bien équipée pour avoir toujours de l'ombre. Le jardin est agréable et très joliment arboré. La vue depuis la piscine sur les montagne est dépaysante. Nous avons été très bien accueillis par Stefano, et Vittoria qui passe chaque jour sur le domaine est toujours disponible. Stefano a été très à l'écoute et très réactif pour nous conseiller lorsqu'un de nos enfants a du consulter rapidement un médecin pendant le week end du 15 Août. Ces 2 semaines nous ont permis de découvrir la Toscane et ses trésors. Nous conseillons vivement la Polletta . Merci Stefano et Vittoria !

Escape to this old farmhouse and enjoy the nature around you

Overall 4.5/5 but it doesn't allow for half points. The wonderful old farmhouse with its stone steps and brick floors overlooking the nearby hills, from the scent of honeysuckle each time you pass through the door, to the cool rustic kitchen at the rear of the house. The smaller bathroom could do with a bit of an update and neither bathroom has particularly good ventilation even with the skylight. Mosquito count was low. We did not use the room at the top (with the four bed and an outstanding view) but it did feel particularly warm. There are ceiling fans in all bedrooms but no air-con. Though I would have to question why would one go to Tuscany on holiday, if not for some warm weather and sunshine! The terrace is great to relax on and to enjoy the view, though it does get very hot during the day and the dark coloured umbrellas, whilst stopping the light, do not stop the IR heat. The cheap plastic dining furniture is not in keeping with the property at all and deserves to be replaced with something a little more upmarket and comfortable. The garden area with its loungers under the beautiful trees is a super way to while away an afternoon between dips in the pool. The pool is big enough for a proper swim and despite being shared, was quiet enough to have it to yourself for periods of the day. It is not illuminated which is a crying shame as an evening swim would've been marvellous with such an eye-catching backdrop. There are a couple of other properties on site but it is private enough that you will not be bothered by other guests. The nearby town of Camaiore is walkable but I wouldn't really advise it. The road by the house is narrow and the last 500m or so must be the testing ground for the Mars Lunar Rover such is the poor state of it (both the public section and within the grounds). It is a nice enough town and we would highly recommed the gelateria in the main square (Gelateria Mondo Goloso) and for a morning coffee and pastry, head to the excellent Lorenzo Pasticceria & Caffè (gets very busy on Sat and Sun mornings). Avoid the "Ristorante Pizzeria Mr. G&B", one of the worst pizzas I have ever eaten! We liked the Candalla waterfalls a 10mn drive, ignore the first pools by the mill and head up higher. Viareggio and wall-to-wall soulless private beaches that go on for miles is awful. Head to Lucca instead and rent bikes to ride atop the amazing city walls. We would definitely considering returning to this property and area again!

Collina baciata dal sole

Un'oasi di paradiso. La struttura è situata su una collina isolata e baciata dal sole vicino al centro abitato di camaiore e in prossimità del mare. Questa posizione da molte possibilità di passeggiate più o meno impegnative, di percorsi enogastronomici e di visita a molti borghetti interessanti. Abbiamo trascorso un mese in questa casa meravigliosa dove abbiamo potuto festeggiare tutte le nostre vacanze natalizie in tranquillità e con la compagnia di un fantastico camino che abbiamo usato assiduamente. I proprietari sempre super disponibili e gentili. Un saluto particolare a Vittoria che ci ha assistito cortesemente per tutta la durata del soggiorno. Famiglia Masini Migliore

Sehr schöne und ruhige Unterkunft mit großem Pool, Terrasse und Garten

Wir hatten eine sehr schöne Zeit mit unseren kleinen Kindern und fanden es sehr entspannt so viel Platz für uns zu haben. Der Pool ist toll, die Entscheidung war immer schwierig, ans Meer zu fahren oder da zu bleiben. Wir haben viel das Auto verwendet, da uns zu Fuß mit den kleinen Kindern der Weg zu weit war, aber Erwachsene können auch in den Ort runter laufen und dort etwas unternehmen. Obwohl wir die Toskana schon kennen, fanden wir die Gegend wieder wunderschön. Es wird sicherlich nicht unser letzter Urlaub dort sein!

Très bon séjour en Toscane

Location bien placée pour visiter la toscane (Pise, Florence, Sienne, Cinque Terre, etc.). Il faut compter 30 min de route pour Pise et 2h pour Sienne. La maison a l'esprit des vieilles bâtisses (corps de ferme) avec un confort correct. Il fait un peu chaud à l'étage quand la journée était très chaude. Les ventilateurs au plafond sont bien utiles. L'extérieur est très bien entretenu et plutôt agréable. La piscine est grande et plutôt indispensable pour profiter du séjour. La plage est à 20 min en voiture.

Summer Holiday 2019

We a family of eight and a dog very much enjoyed our stay in the farmhouse. The location of the house is fantastic. Not only regarding the view but also the distance to the village (however, we took our car since the way to the house is quite steep). We liked the charm of the old house and of course the fantastic pool. Our expectation have been exceeded. We liked excursions e.g. to Lucca, Pisa, the beach, but also the small villages which are nearby. The written instructions of Stefano and Margherita were very helpful. We recommend to do the walking tour No 1 in the folder. We fell in love with the landscape and people in Toscana. The atmosphere on a market square in the morning or in the evening is wonderful. Thank you for wonderful two weeks.

Rustic and relaxed - A nice base for exploring or simply relaxing.

The Farmhouse seems quite 'rustic' on first impressions but is well equipped, comfortable enough and does have a simple charm to it. There is a nice patio in front of the 'Manor House' and the 'Farmhouse' so you do have plenty of private space and somewhere to have meals. The 'Farmhouse' also has it's own little terrace garden area. Each of the properties have allocated garden furniture so you don't need to worry about getting space near the pool. The patio has shade in the mornings and evenings, with a large parasol for the middle of the day. Although very warm in the daytime, the evenings cooled down and we had very comfortable nights sleep. The pool is actually saltwater which I was a bit unsure of, however, it is the nicest pool used. The view over the valley is lovely and the properties are surrounded by simple yet nicely maintained gardens, so there is plenty of space if you need it. The owner (Stafano) was happy to answer our pre-booking questions and also provided us with an additional fan as we were concerned about the heat. Vittoria, who looks after the property, speaks very little English but we managed to understand each other and she always there to help us out if we needed it. She visits the property twice a day, watering the plants, cleaning the sun-loungers, checking the pool, looking after the garden and generally tidying up. The water did stop one day but Vittoria quickly contacted the town and arranged for us to have a supply of drinking water. In the area - Camaiore is within walking distance (but bring your torch for the way back) and actually has a reasonable amount of restaurants and bars. Although there is a supermarket, it's quite small and parking can be a bit tricky but there are a number of better supermarkets near Pietrasanta. Actually Pietrasanta is a 15 minute drive but comes alive at night and well worth discovering early on. Viareggio was absolutely not my kind of place at all. A car is necessary. You can get to Pisa and Lucca within half an hour. (We hired a 4 seater bike to pedal around Lucca city walls which was fun for the kids!). Florence and Cinque Terre Riviera are about 1.5 hrs away. Just be aware that the road up to the property is quite narrow so you will need to prepare yourself for some tight manoeuvres should you meet some other cars. Overall we enjoyed the place. It's ideal as a base for exploring the surrounding area, or just for relaxing. We would certainly consider coming back again.

Traumhaft schön!

Wir - 4 Erwachsene und 4 Kinder - haben Ende August einen zweiwöchigen Urlaub im "Farmhouse" verbracht, der uns noch lange in Erinnerung bleiben wird. Das Haus, die Terasse und der Pool sind ein Traum. Das Haus befindet sich am Ortsrand von Camaiore in absolut ruhiger Lage. Der Ausblick ist einzigartig. Es ist alles für einen erholsamen und entspannten Urlaub vorhanden. Insbesondere die Küche ist bestens ausgestattet. Die Vermieter und Frau Vittoria, die sich vor Ort um das Anwesen kümmert, waren sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Man sollte unbedingt eine Ausflug nach Pisa, Lucca, und vor allem nach Pietrasanta machen. Auch die nahegelegene Schlucht von Candalla ist sehenswert. Nicht nur die Kinder, sondern auch wir Erwachsene wären gerne noch länger geblieben!

Beautiful location and authentic rustic farmhouse with excellent pool

Excellent relaxing break in rural setting. Pool is excellent with stunning views. Owners attentive and helpful and Vittoria very helpful day to day. The steep, narrow, winding access road (typical in such places) can be a challenge for drivers, however, and walking in and out of Camaoire is not really practical. Good base for exploring surrounding area by car

A great place to enjoy Tuscany's Dolce Vita

We spent a beautiful week in the holiday house. It has lots of space and is well equipped. Only the internet connection was sometimes a bit weak. The terrace is a place to enjoy and the pool a dream. It was the kids favourite. Especially the view is amazing. It is as if you were swimming directly into the mountains. Camaiore is a good place to start your daytrips from. We went to Pisa, Lucca,Livorno, Viareggio and Firenze. With every destination being an one hour or less drive away. The landscape is lovely and the people very friendly. Coming back to the house after the daytrips was very relaxing. Enjoy.

About the host

Hosted by Stefano & Margherita Lazzari

Host profile image
Stefano and Margherita are happily married since 1981 and have two now grown up children, Livio who is a journalist working in Modena and Maria Francesca a painting restorer with workshop in Parma.
Stefano whose father worked as a manager for Alitalia has lived in Kenya, South Africa, Egypt, England and for 15 years in Rome. He speaks fluently English and a good French He has a degree in Industrial design worked for Macy's buying office in Florence, a major italian houseware glass factory in Fidenza, and a packaging industry in Parma. He also designed, patented and commercialized a cleaning up manual tool for gardens, communities, or large surfaced areas. He now likes to take photographs. Margherita, who studied literature and philosophy loves reading. We live in Quattro Castella (a very small town between Parma and Reggio Emilia)
in Emilia Romagna where we rent out another house (VRBO reference number 402746) That is why we are very seldomly in Camaiore during the summer
as we try to rent out as much as possible to cope with the high property and revenue taxes.
Mrs Vittoria the housekeeper will welcome you and show you around the property. She is practicly every day on the property although she does not live on it. We are at any time at your complete disposal by telephone or by the Internet.

Why they chose this property

This property belongs to Margherita's family since 1947 and she inherited it from her aunt Ludovica in 2000.

What makes this property unique

La Polletta was once a farm. Margherita' aunt started (the place is owned by the family since 1947) the renovation in the 1970's (but keeping it still very rustic) and turned it in a now group of 6 apartments : the Manor, the Farmhouse, the Olive mill, the barn, the Chestnut storage house (Il Metato) and the steward's apartment.
It is a place where friends and families can meet again and again during the cool spring days or the hot summer holidays, share out-door candle light dinners or an "aperitivo" on the houses terraces, meet at the 11x7 meter salt depured swimming pool with stunning view.
A place where the children can safely play in the surrounding two acre terraced gated and partially fenced garden. Where children can meet again their friends from last year's holiday, and year after year grow up together, feel at home and start an ever lasting friendship. It is a place for families that want to share friendship.
A place off the beaten track, encircled by silent nature, even if it is just a mile away from the town's center (Camaiore has just about 10,000 inhabitants), but nevertheless with many things to do to enrich the holiday experience such as: Trekking in the mountains, swimming in the rivers or in the Mediterrenean (just 6 kilometers away), exploring one of Europes most attractive cave, visiting places of interest nearby such as Pisa, Lucca or Pietrasanta (30 minutes), Florence (1 hour) or have a taste of the very good local cuisine.
A place to rest your mind in, and even if it's not Eden, finally stop the everlasting research for new places and stop feeling an eternal rover going through some good some bad some extremelly bad holiday experiences.
We have met, since 2010 (before we lose count of ), 1325 new friends here at La Polletta who spent a total of 3088 nights and in the meanwhile gained a medium 4,5 star rating for our houses and a badge of premium partner as a tenant.
We are ready to welcome you join our friends on board the "La Polletta" .
