Tuscan rustic house with exclusive private garden

Rustico Dora is located in Montemagno, a small hill town on the ancient road of the Via Francigena.
Surrounded by the greenery of olive groves and vineyards, it is an excellent starting point for peaceful walks; ideal to reach in a few minutes the beaches of Versilia and in a strategic position to visit both the main art cities located in the heart of Tuscany (Lucca, Pisa, Florence, Siena) and tourist destinations such as Garfagnana, the Carrara marble quarries and the romantic Cinque Terre.
The house, comfortable and welcoming, is a characteristic rustic furnished in Tuscan style with terracotta floors and ceiling with wooden beams, is equipped with appliances, wi-fi connection and private parking. The garden with patio and barbecue, surrounded by aromatic plants and fruit trees, is an excellent refuge for relaxing, while a few steps away two restaurants offer typical Tuscan dishes.
The accommodation of about 100 square meters is located on two levels. It consists of: 1 double bedroom, 2 bathrooms, closets, dining room, kitchen complete with every comfort, garden with patio and independent entrance.
Pets are not allowed in the structure and smoking is prohibited. The cottage is suitable for children but unfortunately it is not suitable for the disabled.
It is advisable to use your own car, however, a few steps from the house is the bus stop that allows you to reach railway stations and airports.

Alessio's correspondence, service, help, advice and speed of replies are truly exceptional and the house is just beautiful, homely and so well maintained. It has everything you need to cook, relax and make you feel at home and I cannot recommend it highly enough.

Lovely Tuscan getaway
Rustica Dora is lovely house, as described. The garden is a great spot to relax or BBQ and is full of fresh herbs and roses. It’s a very short walk into the village, where there 2 restaurants and 2 bar/cafes. Everyone is super friendly and it’s a great base the explore Tuscany from. A car is a must. Alessio, the host, was very helpful and always available- many thanks, we had a great stay and highly recommend.

Great appartment centrally in Northen Tuscany
The apartment is centrally located in northen Tuscany only a 30 - 60 minutes drive away from attractions like Lucca, Pisa, Cinque Terre and Florence, Montecatini Alto and Bagni di lucca to name a few. Great beaches like Lido di Camaiore are only 15 minutes away. The apartment which was very clean has a large kitchen and dining room with all appliances needed, 2 bathrooms with showers and 3 bedrooms. The showers were good as was the bed we slept in. The apartment has a good wireless connection, tv's, an alarm system, a washing machine and private parking. The house, which is attached to a church, is beautiful and has a large private garden where you can enjoy your meals or just relax and bask in the sun. There are hiking trails nearby and the Via Francigena trail lies through the village. There are several restaurants to pick from but we always picked Le Meraviglie across the street. We highly recommend this restaurant. Alessio was very kind and helpful and met us even though we arrived late in the evening and had prepared a very welcome treat for us with local wine, cheese and more. He explained everything concerning the appartment and surroundings. This is a perfect place to stay if you prefer a spacious apartment with a private garden away from the crowds but still a short distance from main attractions.

Beautiful little property perfectly situated in the heart of Tuscany
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, the villa was immaculately clean and very well appointed. Couple of great eateries in the village, and a lovely friendly little bar. Nestled in the Tuscan countryside there are some fabulous walks directly from the house. Whenever we ventured out for the day (and there are plenty of places to visit within easy reach) we always looked forward to coming back here. We would highly recommend this property, so much so we hope to return in the near future.

Beautiful Tuscan experience
Allessio was kind enough to meet us in town to accompany us to the home (as our GPS seemed a bit confused)....we drove along a beautiful winding road with impressive, sweeping views of the valley, on our way to the home. When he opened the gate to our charming country garden....we were delighted to see that the table was enticingly set with a board of cheese and meats....and a bottle of local wine....a wonderful way to begin the stay. The home has an Old World charm that we were looking for (stone walls, beautiful wood beams, etc.).....and the decor to complement it all. There were nice touches everywhere throughout the home - from the scented candles to the lavender bouquets on the bed. Additionally, there are a few restaurants nearby (walking distance) - as well as trails through the countryside. It is also only a short drive to Cinque Terre - an easy visit with the benefit of not being caught up in the crowds. We highly recommend staying here to experience Tuscany as a local, off the beaten path.

Perfect holiday home in the North of Tuscany
We stayed one week in this spacious stonehouse behind the local church. Nice garden where we could bbq and relax day or night. The small village containing a few restaurants but no supermarket though, is centrally positioned if you are planning to see the north of Tuscany including Florence, Lucca, Pisa, but also easy enough to drive south to Chianti or Montepulciano although you are looking at 2 hour drive. We have a lovely time here, and can only recommend it :)

Schönes Toskana Haus
We stayed at this house up on the mountain and drove about 14 Km to the Camaiore beach. The house is beautiful, with a beautiful enclosed garten, kids can play around without worrying them running to the street. The renter has almost everything you need in the house...There are 2 great restaurants nearby, and a bike /Cafe Shop (there are many bikes/bike tours/e-bike tours passing thru this road). It is situated next to a main road, so it can be loud if you have the windows open...But with closed windows you can barely hear anything.

Nice place
The place and the furniture is nice but quite old. The garden is great, we liked that the most of this place. The location is good, but also a bit noisy from the street nearby and it's located next to a church. The place looks clean, but the toilets/shower were a bit smelly. We had a great time and can recommend this place for people who are looking for a simpel stay.

Toskana Urlaub
Wir hatten nach Florenz sowie Siena im Hotel uns auch noch für die Ziele Pisa und Lucca interessiert . Hierfür hatten wir das Haus gebucht. Das Haus war sehr sauber, sehr liebevoll ausgestattet und es fällte uns an nichts. Allessio der Vermieter war immer sofort per whats up für uns erreichbar und immer sehr bemüht. Wenn man etwas bemängeln kann, dann nur das es im Ort keine Ausfall für Frühstück gibt sowie dass das Haus an eine Durchfahrtstraße liegt. Wir würden selbst immer wieder kommen.

Eine hervorragende Gegend für Fahrradtouren in die Umgebung (Lucca, Pisa ...). E-Bikes waren für uns (60+) dann aber doch erforderlich! / Era tutto lì. Potremmo cucinare da soli e cenare meravigliosamente in giardino. Il nostro padrone di casa era sempre pronto ad aiutarci ed era disponibile per tutte le richieste (mance incluse).

Wunderschöne Unterkunft
Die Unterkunft wurde mit viel Liebe zum Detail eingerichtet. In unmittelbarer Nähe sind zwei Restaurants, die man in 1-2 Minuten zu Fuß erreichen kann. Ein Parkplatz ist ebenfalls vorhanden. Für uns war das bisher die schönste Unterkunft die wir bisher gebucht hatten und daher sehr zu empfehlen. Aber man muss bedenken, dass das Haus etwas weit vom Schuss liegt, daher ist ein Auto empfehlenswert.

Maison magnifique et avec beaucoup de charme
Nous avons profité fin août de cette belle maison. Tout est parfaitement conforme aux photos, l'intérieur comme le jardin sont très soignés et agréables. Le plateau d'accueil avec charcuterie, fromage et vin local est à noter également. Seul petit inconvénient, un peu de bruit à cause de la route voisine. A recommander sans hésiter !
