Traditional stone villa with terrace & gardens, in the hills of Lunigiana, Northern Tuscany.

Casa Nirvana is a traditional, stone built detached villa with balconies, terrace and garden. It has been lovingly restored and refurbished by the present owner and features cotto floors and an open fire, together with a pleasing blend of traditional and contemporary styling. Accommodation is provided on 3 levels: ground floor cooking and living, first floor bathroom, master bedroom and second bedroom and second floor mansarda (King sized room at the top). The landscaped garden boasts a spacious terrace for alfresco dining, sunbathing, or simply enjoying the magnificent scenery; and the enclosed lawn provides a safe play area for children. Car parking is both ample and convenient. Being just 1 hour from Pisa airport and within reach of excellent beaches and skiing, Casa Nirvana is centrally located in Lunigiana. It is a perfectly luxurious hillside retreat, for those not inclined to venture far; yet is ideally situated for the more adventurous to explore this beautiful part of Italy.

Tranquil rural location
This lovingly restored hillside property is in a tranquil setting offering fantastic views over the surrounding mountains and valleys. The property is spacious and with a large garden there are lots of opportunities to relax in comfort. Maintained and equipped to a high standard the property is likely to exceed expectations. During winter months access to the property may be difficult due to the remoteness of the hamlet.

Spectacular location
Perched on the side of a mountain-top village, with its labyrinthine arched lanes and tucked-away houses, Casa Nirvana is a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the scenery. The terrace/garden is beautiful with stunning views and the house was clean, bright with plenty of space and everything we needed (even Cluedo and chess!). Highly recommend.

La tranquillité en montagne
Après des séjours dans des villes et des centres urbains, cette propriété est l’endroit idéal pour relaxer et décompresser. Les vues depuis les chambres sont splendides. L’appartement est propre et frais. C’est aussi un bon pied à terre pour faire des voyages de jour sur la côte. Attention, mieux vaut aimer la conduite dans des routes étroites et sinueuses en montagne pour séjourner dans cette villa - c’est ce qui fait le charme du retour à la villa en fin de journée. L’épicerie dans la municipalité Aulla, à 15 minutes de conduite, propose une foule de petits plats du terroir. De plus, Colette est adorable. Je n’hésiterais pas à revenir y séjourner .

Beautifully restored old house with excellent mountain view
We had a wonderful week in the house which was equipped with everything we needed. The house is located in a small charming mountain village offering a very authentic Italian experience, still in short driving distance of tourist highlights, shopping and restaurants.

Beautiful view and surroundings
Casa Nirvana was a haven to hang out in with beautiful views of the mountains and a peaceful feeling within the house and surrounding village. It being August and very busy in all the touristy places, we mostly preferred to hang out at the house as a family and enjoy the lovely space and view.

Laue Abende
Der Urlaub war einfach super erholsam. Man konnte schön ausschlafen. Fast zum Mittag frühstücken und dann wieder entspannt ein Buch lesen.

Herrliche Entspannung!
Wir waren für 6 Tage in Casa Nirvana und fanden es einfach traumhaft. Das geschmackvoll eingerichtete Haus liegt in wunderbarer Hanglage und wir haben den Ausblick und die Ruhe jeden Tag genossen, nachdem wir davor 2 Wochen in der Toskana herumgereist sind. Danke für diese tolle Unterkunft.

außergewöhnliche Lage, tolles Haus
Das Haus ist etwas Besonderes: urig, eigen, schön. Es liegt an prominenter Stelle im letzten Dorf eines Ausläufers der Appeninen, bietet Ruhe und eine phantastische Aussicht. Für schnelle Ausflüge zum Meer oder zum Einkaufen ist es allerdings eher weniger geeignet. Kommunikation und Organisation waren topp!

Sehr schönes Häuschen in kleinem Bergdorf
Wir haben die Ruhe und die Aussicht, die das Häuschen bietet, sehr genossen. Bei gutem Wetter ist man auf der schönen Tereasse oder dem kleinen Garten sehr gut aufgehoben. Die Wohnung ist schön eingerichtet und hat alles was man so täglich braucht. Die Verwalterin ist sehr hilfsbereit und kümmert sich hervorragend um alles was so anfallen kann. Es war eine sehr schöne Zeit!

Sehr schöner Aufenthalt
Eines der schönsten Häuser in denen wir je Urlaub gemacht haben. Das Haus ist perfekt aufgeteilt. Es gibt insgesamt drei Schlafzimmer mit je einem Doppelbett, welche sich im ersten und zweiten Stock befinden. Im Erdgeschoss befindet sich das Wohnzimmer und die Küche. Die Küche bietet alles, was man für ein leckeres Abendessen benötigt. Vor dem Haus befindet sich die Terrasse und ein kleiner Garten. In diesem kann man schön entspannen und man hat einen wunderschönen Ausblick ins Tal. Die Kommunikation mit den Vermietern hat wunderbar funktioniert und auch vor Ort hat man eine Ansprechpartnerin, die bei Fragen uns immer hilfsbereit unterstützt hat. Insgesamt kann ich das Ferienhaus nur weiter empfehlen!

Steinhaus
Ein tolle Haus mit einer mega Lagequalität. Der Rückzugsort für unsere Familie war genau richtig in dieser nicht leichten COVID Zeit. Kleiner Wehrmutstropfen war der nicht zu gebrauchende, verrostete Aussengrill und zu kleine Bratpfannen für zwei Personen (wir waren zu fünft). Family Künzler

Angereist mit zwei Personen, fanden wir die Casa Nirvana wie auf den Bildern zu sehen vor. Die Abende können gemeinsam auf der großen Terrasse genossen werden. Zum Abend kann der Blick in ein naheliegendes Tal der Umgebung und auf die Apuanischen Alpen am Horizont sehr entspannend sein. Nahe des Hauses befindet sich auch ein Wanderweg, der quer durch die Gegend von Tresana und weiter führt. Wer gerne kocht findet in der geräumigen Küche einen großen Gasherd und einen Ofen, muss aber mit einer etwas kleineren Auswahl an Pfannen und Töpfen rechnen, aber es war alles da, was notwendig sein könnte. Wir hatten einen sehr schönen Urlaub und konnten diesen in der Casa Nirvana wunderbar genießen.

Sfeervolle woning in rustig bergdorpje
Casa Nirvana ligt prachtig in een rustig bergdorpje. Mooi uitzicht over de heuvels en Apenijnen. Huis is compleet en schoon met een lekker terras. Als je van een bad houdt is de badkamer prima, ben je een douche type dan is enige lenigheid geboden. Hoewel noordelijk gelegen ten opzichte van toeristische steden zijn Lucca, Pisa en Florence goed te doen. Aanrader als je van een ontspannen week houdt.
