This is an exceptionally beautiful and unusual place — a lovingly conserved/restored medieval village on a mountainside above the Lima River, with comfortable and rustically charming apartments and a delicious restaurant, surrounded by nature, operated on principles of environmental sustainability, and staffed with wonderful people! We were upgraded to a larger and very comfortable and homey apartment (grazie, Mila!) and given an excellent introduction by Daniela, who provided maps and some history and suggested things to do in the region. The breakfast buffets were bountiful, and on the last afternoon we joined other guests in a fun pasta-making class led by Daniela. Despite being somewhat remote (in a good way), there's a lot to do. We went on a lovely 8- to 10-km hike up a mountain trail, passing through several other villages; spent an afternoon in Lucca; and on a rainy day drove further into the mountains on winding roads with beautiful views and enjoyed a hearty Tuscan soup in a cozy restaurant in a ski village. We loved our stay here, hope to come back, and would recommend it to anyone who needs a little peace and quiet, the sound of a river, and the tinkling of goat bells.

No complaints! My only suggestion would be to turn off the music/radio in the dining room in the morning — but maybe some people like it. Note that it may not be as quiet on weekends, since the restaurant is open to the public and obviously popular. We stayed from Sunday to Wednesday, and many Sunday-lunch guests were leaving as we arrived. After that, things quieted down considerably.

This is a very quaint and beautiful village, with wonderfully furnished rooms. The buildings may be old but they have all the modern fittings, good heating during winter, and the beds were comfortable. We had an amazing night here and wished we had booked for more days. The hosts Daniela and Massimo were extremely friendly and you can tell they just love this place with all the hard work they have put into it and the way they explained their work and interact with the guests. This place makes their own honey, jams, cheeses and wine. The restaurant is fantastic, and is honestly one of the best meals we had during our trip.

Very nice and rustic place Good food to a very reasonable price!

-Smell of firewood from the kitchen was constant in the apartment -Many people around especially on the weekends (birthday parties etc) so it’s quite noisy -Horses weren’t available during our stay which was sad because that’s what we were looking for most

Such a wonderful place with a great history and engaged people that work there. We all loved it very much. The pool was warm at the beginning of June, the chess playground was a wonderful idea, we ejoyed playing very much. The breakfast was the best we had during our two weeks trip in Italy. The surroundings, animals, nature, views are amazing. It was great that we could have lunch and dinners at the place and not to leave the farm not for a moment. I hope we will come back.

We loved the location and the very interesting history of the village and were also very keen on the ethos and the ecological approach to sustainable living of the owner and staff. We had a unique and very quiet stay as we were the only visitors staing in the off-season.

A wonderful experience from the moment we arrived till the moment we left. The area and location of the place is breathtakingly beautiful . Lovely famil the breakfast and dinner superb. Would highly recommend

Overall this place is beautiful! The staff are lovely and helpful. The property is amazing! The restaurant is fantastic, great food and also great staff! The bed is perfectly okay... only for personal reasons the bed was not so comfy... for others it might be just right.

The room was okay.. it was dark and the bathroom was tiny. Except for dust webs along the ceiling the room was very clean. The location is beautiful but in the middle of no-where. Meaning it takes a long drive along small streets to get there.

The place is magic, if you want to experience real agriturismo you should go there. The restaurant is so good. The people are very nice. We had a great time. Thanks

Delicious food, including an excellent breakfast buffet. Staff were welcoming, friendly, polite and knowledgable. Professionally trained in table service etiquette which is so rare nowadays. We will return without hesitation, if we in the area again.

picturesque and peaceful but easy drive to Lucca. lovely, helpful staff.

Drive up to house is precipitous but doable.
