Gorgeous house in gorgeous surroundings
Absolutely loved my solo stay at La Balconata! The house itself is unbelievably stunning, full of a huge variety of books and art and decorated with great taste and care. Kevan went above and beyond in making me welcome and comfortable; couldn’t ask for a better host. Highly recommend, especially for writers, photographers, and artists who are seeking peace, serenity, and beauty in a place that great writers like the Shelleys and Byron once spent time exploring and creating in. And the extremely well-stocked kitchen is a definite perk!

Lovely characterful and old house
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful, rustic house high above the Bagna di Lucca valley. Charming bedrooms and bathroom on the top floor, comfortable spacious living room on first floor and huge well-equipped kitchen on the ground floor (worthy of a castle!) with doors leading onto the sunny terrace, perfect for dining and relaxing. Lovely views over the valley from all floors. Many thanks to Kevan, our helpful and friendly host. We would love to return.

Tuscan Life
Our stay was wonderful wishing we could stay longer! If you're wanting a true Tuscan experience then reserve a stay at Bagni di Lucca. The rustic home overlooks a beautiful valley. Kevan has restored a 2,000 year old structure providing a Tuscan country home of years fone by. We thought it was superb. This is a place to experience older Tuscany. If you're wanting city life environment this is not the place. But if you're looking for a "tucked away" mountain retreat reserve it now.

A relaxing place to take in a view.
We had a very relaxing stay in this old farm house which is full of character with amazing views across the valley to the mountains beyond. The property is situated high in the mountains, it requires a car drive and driver to negotiate the winding road to the car park which is about 50 Mts from the house down a made road. The house is comfortable with a great kitchen for cooking in. The bedroom we had was cosy with an on-suite bathroom. The decor is basic but pleasant. The views are wonderful.We stayed the beginning of October and the evening's were cool and the house will benefit from the new stove about to be fitted on cooler night. We enjoyed the time we had there and may go back but at a different time of year.

A True Paradiso
There is beauty in every corner of this farmhouse, of this property, of this village. Our hosts, Kevan and Maureen, were incredibly warm and gracious during our 10-day stay and managed to strike the perfect balance between being available to us and giving us our privacy. The house was very clean and well-stocked with everything we could have possibly needed, from detailed maps of the area to a fabulous library to red currants grown and jarred by our generous hosts. The surrounding villages and towns are also lovely to explore, and this is a great base for day trips to Lucca, Florence, Viareggio, etc. That being said, it was hard to leave the terrace where we spent hours breathing in the magic and beauty, the smells and the sounds of this Paradiso. In a troubled world, this is a place of true peace. Thank you so much, Kevan and Maureen - we can't wait to come back!

Atemberaubende Villa mit einem wunderbaren Gastgeber
Die Zeit bei Kevan war einfach traumhaft. Die liebevoll eingerichtete Villa hat unsere Vorstellungen komplett übertroffen. Die Lage bietet einen spektakulären Blick auf die Berge und die nahegelegenen, malerischen Bergdörfer. Die gut ausgestattete, riesige Küche lädt zum Kochen ein. Gemeinsam essen kann man an einem riesigen Esstisch innen oder auf der Terrasse im Garten. Wer einerseits die Ruhe genießen aber auch in den umliegenden Bergen und grandiosen Wäldern wandern möchte, kommt hier voll auf seine Kosten. Ausflüge zum Meer und in die nahegelegenen Städte Lucca und Pisa haben unseren Urlaub komplett abgerundet. Kevan war ein super Gastgeber und stand uns für alle Fragen und viele gute Tipps stets zur Verfügung. Wir wären gerne noch länger geblieben und kommen auf jeden Fall wieder. Danke für die schöne Zeit. Rewana, Mirko und happy Dog Eddi :-)

Traumhafte Toskana
Wir haben eine erholsame Zeit mit viel Platz im wunderschönen Haus von Kevan verbracht - uns hat es an nichts gefehlt. Wer Ruhe und Abgeschiedenheit in ursprünglicher Natur mag und Entschleunigung sucht, ist hier auf jeden Fall richtig - ein Auto ist für Ausflüge sehr hilfreich. Ein großes Plus war, dass Kevan ob seiner umfangreichen Kenntnisse jederzeit bereit und in der Lage war, uns mit Tipps und Infos rund um die Themen Einkaufen, Essen gehen, Schwimmstellen im Fluss, Strandtipps etc. zu helfen. Immer in Erinnerung bleiben wird uns der wunderbare überdachte Terassenplatz mit unglaublichem Blick in die Berglandschaft mit ihren pittoresken Dörfern. Ach und das WLAN funktionierte tadellos auf allen Etagen und sogar draußen. Ein Dankeschön an unseren herzlichen Gastgeber und besondere Grüße von unseren Kindern an seine beiden lieben Hunde!

Wir hatten zwei wunderbare Wochen in Kevans Haus. Viel Platz, super ausgestattete Küche für Selbstversorger, tolle Ausblicke und richtig gute Insider-Tipps vom Gastgeber. Das Haus ist ein perfekter Ausgangspunkt für viele Ausflüge in alle Richtungen, aber auch der Ort, um sich in Ruhe zu erholen. Und nicht zu vergessen: Schnelles WLAN von der traumhaften Terrasse bis zu den Schlafzimmern unterm Dach.

Wonderful place!
We've been to more than a few holiday homes until now, and this one is definitely best of all! Splendid location, stunning views, huge and beautifully decorated living room and kitchen, we couldn't stop making photographs of it, and they all look like 17th century paintings... You can easily go for (dog)walks from your doorstep, and there's a lovely restaurant a bit higher upon the hill. Kevan and his mum (who both live in another, separate part of the large house) are very nice and helpful people. Highly recommended!

Authentiek Toscaans verblijf van hoog niveau
Het vakantiehuis is schitterend gelegen op een helling in het gehucht Granaiola (Bagni di Lucca) met vrij uitzicht over de omringende bergen. Het huis is ruim en zeer compleet ingericht. In de grote woonkeuken is alles aanwezig om maaltijden te bereiden. De bedden zijn uitstekend. De inrichting van het huis is smaakvol en met veel kunst aangekleed. Je hebt zelfs de beschikking over een uitgebreide bibliotheek aan boeken over kunst, cultuur en koken. De verhuurder, Kevan, is een geweldige gastheer. Hij is graag bereid tips te geven over bezienswaardigheden in de omgeving en kent de beste plekken om authentieke Italiaanse producten te kopen. La Balconata is het perfecte huis om te verblijven in de buurt van de Garfagnana en steden te bezoeken zoals Lucca en Pisa. We zouden er graag nog eens terugkomen.
