This is an inspiringly beautiful and most special place with unique and incredible views, immersed in an ancient dry stone wall terraced olive grove.

La Lucertola is perfectly located to make the most of the many glories of Tuscany and beyond. Pisa, is only a 20 minute drive away, as is Lucca, with her all-embracing city walls and immaculate medieval centre with exquisite boutique shops. Florence is just an hour away, the coast is reached in less than 30 minutes and the spectacular Cinque Terre can be reached in just over an hour. This unique location offers two wonderful, independent and beautifully decorated houses, both of which are on two floors and each are very spacious. They can be rented together or individually.


This house offers a large and fully-equipped kitchen with marble worktops, a hand-made dining table with six chairs for indoor dining when required. For the colder months there is central heating and a fully functioning fireplace/ firebox in the lounge - very cosy! The lounge is next to the kitchen and is very spacious and comfortable. It has a wonderful, top-of-the-range, luxury sofabed, (a double) as well as a SmartTV, DVD player, books and a large box of toys for younger guests. Free Wi-Fi works both throughout the house and outside areas.

Upstairs there are two bedrooms, two bathrooms and one long balcony leading from the main bedroom offering fabulous and uninterrupted panoramic views. Both bedrooms are large and have been beautifully decorated with hand-painted murals of plants and birds that reflect the beauty and tranquillity of the outside space. One of the bathrooms is ensuite to the main bedroom. The main bathroom has a bath and both bathrooms have showers.

There is a large terrace outside the house with sun loungers, a shade pergola, with hand made wooden table and six chairs ideal for relaxing, sunbathing, dining and generally contemplating the infinite. There is a BBQ area and an original wood fired oven, perfect for making pizzas and much more - fantastic fun for everyone and of all ages and cooking abilities!

The beautiful shared salt-water swimming pool is in a secure fenced off garden area with unique olive tree shower, two dedicated sun-bathing and relaxing areas, above and below the pool, sun loungers, shade pergolas, tables and chairs. This truly special and unique place really does refresh the body, mind and soul!

Location and house were beautiful. Luisa and Colin (and Maurice!) were all so welcoming and friendly. So helpful with any questions we had, but also unobtrusive, if you just want a quiet place to relax.

Home on the hill
We only had four nights in this beautiful house but Colin and Louisa made us feel right at home. They were there to greet us, give us tips on places to visit and were just so friendly. The house is ideally placed for Pisa, Florence and the hilltop villages of Tuscany, but also provided an ideal place to relax.

Wonderful getaway, but car required!
While we loved our stay, we would definitely recommend making sure you have a car. This was definitely a mistake on our end and nothing to do with the wonderful La Lucertola! We selected it because of its location being between Pisa and Lucca but definitely made the assumption that we would easily be able to get a taxi or car service to come get us, which was not the case and we ended up having to walk up and down the very large hill/driveway. Beyond that the house comes with everything you need and Colin & Louisa were just wonderful hosts! Would recommend especially for a family looking to have an easy welcoming spot to stay!

The view was amazing
Pros: Colin was Amazing, we got to cook our own pizzas in the oven and the view was Astonishing!! Cons: the Driveway was terrifying, literally hair pin turns, my husband had to sleep on top of the comforter covering with a towel because of bed springs, we had to use the same towels for 5 days I'm leaving a 5 star rating bc this is their business and if anyone else has different opinions on what I think would be bad I don't want my star rating to deter them. I would honestly give a 3.5 ⭐️. I have a small business and think someone else should give it a try like we did, to judge for them selves. If you do stay, please go to Lucca. It's the most incredible little quaint vibrant and lively place!!!! Whatever you do, don't check in at dark because of the driveway, they are 2-point possibly 3-point turns and you won't want to do it in the dark the first time.

A beautiful and great location!
The house is beautiful- well-equipped and in the most glorious setting with breathtaking views over Pisa and beyond! Its location is hard to beat - Florence just over an hour, Lucca 20 minutes, Pisa 20 minutes, the sea 25 minutes and the mountains in 45 minutes, the Cinque Terre in under an hour. What a fabulous holiday!!

The house is perfect. It has amazing views and is in a great location. Colin and Louisa are very hospitable but without being overbearing. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, swimming in the pool and eating dinner outside overlooking Pisa.

Great location! Fabulous accommodation !
20 minutes from Pisa, 20 minutes from Lucca, 25 minutes from one of the few ‘wild’ sandy beach at Marina di Vecchiano AND 0 minutes from a staggeringly gorgeous house, a breath-taking view and a wonderful pool and lounging area. The hosts are friendly, but not invasive, truly helpful and lovely people! What a find!

An Amazing Holiday
Once we got to the top of the twisty road – which was the only challenge of holiday - and we got out of the car we were presented with the most spectacular view of Pisa and beyond. The iconic Learning Tower and Cathedral could clearly be seen on the horizon, acting as a rubber stamp that we had arrived at somewhere special. Our villa – 1 of 2 - was set in several acres of olive groves with a swimming pool, which was essential. The villa was well equipped with all the facilities we needed, washing machine, BBQ, outside table and chairs and a balcony to once again admire the view. Colin and Louisa – the owners – are an incredible couple and were always available to advise on what to do and where to go. The 2 home chef nights went down a storm, the 2nd ending in a sing-a-long in Colin’s recording studio. We spent 2 weeks here and traveled around Tuscany, Pisa, Lucca, Florence and it flew by. We really enjoyed every minute, the Villa and Colin and Louisa played a big part in achieving this and of course the Wine helped.

A little peace of paradise in this busy world!
This was only our second villa stay, the first being the week previous in Provence, and despite our noviceness we were glad we chose this property as it lived up to all our expectations. We arrived late afternoon, and having read past reviews we were expecting the challenging driveway; it is a challenge but proved no problem for us whatsoever, you just need to go steady. On arrival we were greeted by Becky, Louisa's cousin as they were on holiday, and she gave us a guided tour. This villa is in a stunning location, near to the sea, Pisa, Lucca and Florence (a bit further away) so if you want to do stuff there is loads to see and do. If you want a quiet relaxing holiday go to the supermarket and get the weeks provisions in and you could stay there all week and do nothing. The views are spectacular to say the least, and having cooked a meal on the wood fired barbeque you can sit back and watch the sun wane whilst looking down over the leaning tower of Pisa, interspersed with the occasional ring of the local bells in the village. Perfect. There is not much in Pugnano, some restaurants should you need them, we didn't and only ate out when making a trip somewhere. The pool and deck area are superb, although at times we felt the lower area could have done with a bit more useful shade especially under the hot sun. The barbecues were good, as was the wood fired oven, unlike our pizzas which were not so good. We had the 'Meal at Home' option one evening and this was superb, highly recommended. The villa itself was fine, it had all you needed, but we did feel it lacked a little 'homeliness' in places and a bit more furniture in the bedrooms might have been handy. One comment we would make is that the non ensuite bathroom could do with some better showering facilities. These minor things made no difference to us, we arrived, relaxed, ate, drank and relaxed some more - this is a great place to do this! Even the fresh lemons on the tree finished off our G&T's to perfection! Many thanks Luisa Colin and Max, we loved our stay and we were glad to meet you albeit for a short time. Rest assured, Becky filled your shoes well!

Idyllisches Ferienhaus mit traumhaftem Blick
Das liebevoll gestaltete und sehr gepflegte Ambiente, sowohl des Interieurs als auch des Außenbereichs, hat uns ausgesprochen gut gefallen und unsere Erwartungen mehr als erfüllt. Lediglich die steile Serpentinen-Zufahrtsstraße zum Haus war eine Herausforderung, die aber mit einem traumhaften Blick belohnt wurde. Wir haben die Zeit auf unserer Terrasse, den Blick aus allen Zimmern übers weite Land und den besonders schönen Pool-Bereich besonders genossen, außerdem die Nutzung des Grills und des eigenen Steinofens zum Pizzabacken. Tolle Sache! Luisa und Collin hatten uns schon im Vorfeld zuverlässig informiert, haben uns herzlich empfangen und einen zurückhaltenden, aber sehr persönlichen Kontakt gepflegt - das hat sehr zum Wohlfühlen beigetragen. Vielen Dank an beide, wir kommen gerne wieder! Familie Egger aus Karlsruhe

Idyllic getaway close to Pisa
We are a family with four children and had plenty of room to relax. One bedroom has 3 single beds and the downstairs sitting room had a sofa bed. The villa is up on the hillside with stunning views of the area. Our kids shared the pool with the other family in the adjoining property. The pool area is lovely and the pool was a godsend in the summer heat. The owners provided a fan for each room. You can eat inside or al fresco. We even cooked pizza in the woodfire pizza oven with fantastic results. Pisa is 20 mins drive (once you know the way) and Lucca is 20 mins in the other direction where you can hire cycles and cycle wound the walled town. Florence is best reached by train. We even managed to drive our 9 seater van up the hair pin bend driveway up to the property everyday. The owners are just next door of you have any needs or questions. Would definitely stay here again if we come back to the area.

Peaceful, tranquil, relaxing countryside retreat
Lovely seclusion in the side of a steep hill, this self catering rural retreat is a treat! Bring your family and their family and rent both Villa's side by side! Be the envy of your dad and the joy of your mum, the wood fired pizza oven makes gastronomic treats - by you, of course! Fire up the BBQ and munch on some side salad, this is lazy days sunning by the pool and soaking in the lower valley view of Pisa. The lovely shopping village of Lucca is actually closer than Pisa, but we got the most Joy and value out of the Alimantari just north of the nearby village Ripafratta. Don't be afraid to spend between 7-10 Euro for a decent Chianti, you will be rewarded - absolutely delicious and has knocked Pinot Noir out of my number 1 position in terms of flavour!! Have fun, chill out and take everything you need.

Wonderful !
Just back after spending a wonderful time at La Lucertola. As I drive all year round, we decided not to hire a car for the whole trip as it was our two daughters ( 16 and 12 ) first trip to Tuscany and we weren't going to venture too far. A couple of days hire to stock up was worthwhile. Our day trips to Lucca and a day to Pisa by bus were more than enough for a first visit. Luisa and Colin had kindly done an initial shop and the Prosecco and Peroni were an added surprise ! Ciapino's in nearby Molina di Quosa was great for some lovely local dishes.....great wee deli. The hospitality and friendliness of the hosts was superb...wee things like this can make a holiday. Always there if needed but never intrusive. The location is incredible. The view from the balcony, looking down on the countryside with Pisa in the distance was a special memory for me. Every morning had the same effect. Stunning. Days at the pool...making pizzas in the wood-fired oven....picking herbs and fruit from the surrounding trees for various recipes...lovely ! The American family from Baltimore who were in the next farmhouse were so nice....Hi, guys, loved your company ! For a base to discover Tuscany, it is great. Thanks Colin, Luisa and Max....we will be back. Bob, Tracey, Amy and Hannah.

Vackert hus nära Pisa med fantastisk service
Huset ligger på sluttningen med utsikt över Pisa med väldigt vacker natur runt om. Vi anlände på natten men värdarna hade ordnat med belysning så att vi skulle hitta infarten till huset. De erbjöd sig även att göra en första handling så att vi skulle ha frukosten klar till kommande dag. Invändigt hade huset allt man kunde önska och utvändigt likaså. Väldigt väl städat och bra underhållet. Väldigt trevliga och serviceinriktade värdar som verkligen månade om att man hade allt man behövde. Rekommenderas varmt!

Beautiful property, spectacular views!
We stayed here for a week with another couple and had a wonderful time. It's a perfect location for day trips to the hill towns or beaches, and very close to the amazing walled town of Lucca. We also had some very relaxing breaks just hanging out by the private pool, or sitting on the patio enjoying the panoramic views with a glass of wine! There are plenty of good restaurants in the area, but we took advantage of the well equipped kitchen to make a few home cooked meals using the delicious local ingredients. Our favorite dessert was persimmons picked right from the trees on their property with vanilla ice cream! Our hosts, Luisa and Colin, were extremely helpful and we really appreciated all their tips about the area. Our only issue was the steep, narrow drive to reach the property. As other guests mentioned, there are several hairpin turns which are a bit challenging to navigate until you get comfortable with them.

Nice and relaxing property
First let me say that Luisa and Colin were wonderful host. The property is a little hard to get to, but it is very nice and has a wonderful view. The outside area is great for dining or for cocktails after a day of activities. It is nicely located between Pisa and Lucca and only about 50 minutes from Florence on the autostrade. I would and will definitely recommend this place to my friends and family. Paul

Traumhafte Erholung
Bei dieser Ferienwohnung stimmt einfach alles. Schön eingerichtet, wundervolle Terrasse mit unglaublicher Aussicht. Ein herrlicher Pool. Die Bilder geben wieder, wie schön und liebevoll alles gestaltet ist. Und die Vermieter sind einfach klasse. Gute Tipps für Unternehmungen, hilfsbereit und total nett. Die Wohnung liegt gut, um mit dem Fahrrad nach Pisa, ans Meer oder nach Lucca zu fahren. Vor allem Lucca lohnt sich unbedingt. Aber auch Sienna oder Firence sind gut zu erreichen. Von Lucca fährt stündlich eine Bahn nach Firence. Wir haben einen tollen Urlaub verlebt. Freunde, die unsere Bilder gesehen haben, haben uns direkt nach der Adresse gefragt. Wir selber kommen auf jeden Fall gerne wieder. Ansgar und Ulla

Spectacular!
Three woman traveling together staying at this amazing Tuscany Farmhouse Villa. The Villa was absolutely everything we pictured and more. The views were amazing from the bedroom window to outside by the pool. Breathtaking views! We stayed June 4th to June 7th and did not want to leave. Definitely need a car to travel to and from villa if going to grocery stores or anywhere else. We went to an amazing beach which was recommended by Luisa and Colin called Marina Di Vecchiano The drive up the hill to the villa was a bit challenging at first, we even went up the wrong road at first. Colin was so helpful in coming to our car with his vehicle and guiding us up the right way. After doing the drive several times it became very easy. We rented a FIAT which was the right size car for the narrow roads. Luisa and Colin were the nicest people you can meet. So helpful with anything we needed or inquired about. The pool was so relaxing and refreshing. The one thing we would suggest is maybe having a fan in each bedroom for the evenings. The house downstairs was always very cool and comfortable. We highly recommend this villa in Tuscany. Hopefully we can come back one day! Thank you Colin and Luisa

Idyllic property, stunning views
Stayed here for a week. Fabulous location but the drive up is NOT for fainthearted. 5 hairpin bends 2 of which require 2 goes to get round. View though from the house is spectacular. Owners so helpful but in no way intrusive. They just want you to have a wonderful time. A fantastic wood fired brick pizza oven let's you experience making your own authentic pizza. Well equipped kitchen and well stocked vegetable and herb garden you are invited to help yourself to and a lovely new swimming pool and deck area to relax with. Abundant olive trees and sounds of nature. A truly relaxing place. WiFi is patchy but who needs to be in touch with the real world when you are in paradise.

Tuscan vacation
My family loved our stay in this charming house in tuscany. This is a great location to visit Lucca, Pisa and other small towns. Beach is nearby and it is nice. Surrounding countryside is very peaceful. House itself is clean and welcoming. Bedrooms are spacious and newly decorated. Furniture is nice and bathrooms are new and clean. One has a shower and other one bath. Patio outside adds to the house. The are two units side by side and it is good for larger families to get both properties. We had a nice family next to us and spend many nights enjoying the outdoors. Our hosts live on the property , next to the rental and are available for help if needed. The view from the house is amazing. Be sure to have a good car since the road to the house is quite steep and needs a car that can get up the hill. We rented a big car (long) and it was too big to maneuver it around the bends. We changed it to a Nissan pickup which was better. I would recommend this property for its location and charm and the owners!!! Luis's was very prompt and responsive when we inquired about the property and the booking was very easy. Directions to the property were very good , I just wish Italians have better signs!!

Serene and beautiful !
Stunning views and unique private feel ! Was as described, clean and well-maintained, great fireplace and well cured wood supplied. Owners were lovely, helpful and proud of their property and it showed ! Switchback up to the terrace daunting at first but once there became routine. Daytrips to Lucca, Florence, Siena and Volterra were short drives. Supermarkets within 15 km, wonderful wood fired Pizzeria just down the hill adjacent a 12th cent. church!. Would highly recommend-country house and fine hosts!
