The property is very well equipped and comfortable. It wasn’t warm enough to go for a swim at this time of year but the view and outlook is beautiful and very near to Lucca, Pisa and Florence. We had friends come and stay for a few days with us too. Stephania is very pleasant and accommodating.

The property was impeccable, well supplied with amenities, had glorious views, and most importantly, Stefania was at the villa when we arrived, delivered all information about local and broader excursions, grocery store, train stations-all we needed to enjoy our stay. She was available at all times to answer questions we had. Our stay was unforgettable and delightful.

Amazing Property & Host
Stefani was the best host we could have asked for. She was very accommodating with our late check-in and was willing to grab a few groceries for us as stores were closed the day we arrived. The property is beautiful and kept up very well, approximately 15 minutes away from Lucca. Renting a car is ideal to reach this location. It was a wonderful stay!

Great Stay
Stefania is a great host. The property is gorgeous with smaller details which needs updating. In summertime I am certain this is a fantastic place to be. The 4 star rating is only down due to the slightly inflated electricity prices one will be charged after check/out and that there was construction on both sides going on which would have been nice to be made aware of. Otherwise a great place to be.

A really wonderful experience
My husband and I couldn’t have been happier staying at Stefania’s house outside of Lucca. Everything worked out perfectly for us for our week’s stay. The location is great. The house is in a very residential and quiet neighborhood, but an easy drive to all food stores and services you might need. And only about a 15 minute drive into Lucca, where you can park just outside the walls and walk all over that lovely city. Plus of course Pisa, the sea, and all the other delights of visiting Tuscany. The house itself is charming, with an open plan living room/dining room/kitchen downstairs and the bedrooms upstairs. Everything in the house is nicely decorated but it’s also very comfortable. The living room seating is comfortable, with good reading lights, the bed and pillows are super-comfortable (we slept so well) and the outdoor chairs for sitting in the garden are also comfortable for relaxing in the late day sun after a day of sightseeing. Which brings me to the garden, which is pretty much the highlight of the property. The grounds are beautiful with space to sit in the sun or shaded under the pergola where there is a dining table. There is also a lovely pool, but it wasn’t the season for using a pool when we were there in April. I imagine the pool is a huge benefit for people who stay in the summer. And finally the owner, Stefania, was really great. She was very helpful before we arrived with advice on restaurants and even made us reservations. And she checked on us regularly during the week to make sure everything was going well. And it always was, because her place is so well maintained and instructions very clear. You can’t go wrong renting this home.

Amazing stay - beautiful cottage and fantastic host
We couldn't be happier for having chosen to stay at Stefania's beautiful traditional cottage in Capannori . We stayed for a month for a working holiday and found it very comfortable with all amenities available - kitchen, wifi, bathroom, heating, etc. The garden is an absolute dream, even though we stayed here during winter... imagine in summer!! Stefania is a very welcoming and responsive host, and did everything to make sure we had an amazing stay - thank you! She also made a very valid recommendation regarding our means of heating the house in order to manage the cost, which we found very helpful - we definitely recommend making the most of the fireplace as much as possible! The location was just right for a quiet holiday close to the city (10-15 mins from Lucca and close enough to other great places which we had the privilege of visiting, including Chianti, Florence, Prato, Pistoia and others). Baker, butcher, supermarket are only a short drive away. Staying at the Pennecchio was a dream and it was a pity we had to leave, but will definitely highly recommend it and hope to stay here again some day :)

Traditional Renovated Tuscan Cottage
We had a brilliant stay in this, well-equipped , traditionally renovated Tuscan cottage (brilliant, new fridge-freezer). It's extremely clean and we appreciated the enormous, well fenced, secure garden for our dogs, who loved it here. You do need a car but it is very well situated to visit Lucca, Pisa and Florence. Stefania is very friendly, easily contactable, extremely efficient and an amazing host. Nothing was too much trouble, which was especially invaluable in these Covid times. The house is in a small hamlet but the neighbours are very friendly. We stayed during the winter period and made a lot of use of the wonderful log burner. We were in lockdown for some of the time so it was useful to have plenty of walking straight from the house onto the Route de Ville, which had some beautiful houses to admire. We would highly recommend the villa for a peaceful, relaxing holiday. We hope to return very soon. Grazie mille Stefania, a presto.

Stefania was an amazing and very helpful host throughout the whole trip. The house was equally great and very enjoyable: the garden with the olive trees was the highlight: perfectly fenced for dogs and beautiful to look at, while snacking on olives and drinking in the shade of the pergola. Highly recommended.

Wonderful
We stayed for four weeks. The property is comfortable, well equipped and pleasantly presented. It is also very well kept. The area is very tranquil, and allows the sort of relax one looks out for his holiday. The views are brilliant, and we enjoyed our sunset dinners looking at fascinating colours and views. The owner, Stefania, lives nearby, and is very helpful, efficient and welcoming with her friendly approach. One couldn't ask for more. Capannori is also ideal to discover the region, the nearly magnificent villas, the world famous versilia coast, and of course Florence. But we enjoyed immensely discovering Lucca, beautiful, full of surprises, and makes for excellent shopping and dining out. For dog owners, the huge garden is a haven, absolutely safe and escape proof. Wonderful for the peace of mind of dog owners. Brilliant. A presto Stefania.

Picture Perfect in Tuscany
We had a beautiful week in Stefania's lovely holiday villa. Everything was as promised. It is a great place to relax and from which to take day trips, which we did about half the time. We loved snipping rosemary from the bushes and adding it to our omelettes. Other foods were readily available at the Esselunga (supermarket). We were glad we had GPS for navigating, although after a few days we sort of had a feel of which way to go when. We had planned on having two full bathrooms, but the shower in the ground floor bathroom was really too small to turn around in, so we all used the bathroom upstairs for showers. Since we could only shower one at a time anyway (there was plenty of hot water, and water pressure was good, but the water temp would change unexpectedly if a second faucet was in use), that was okay. And we were unsuccessful in using the outdoor grill, but agreed with Stefania that we probably should not have tried to use charcoal left by previous tenants, since it probably had too much moisture from all the humidity. (So -- get yourselves a fresh bag of charcoal!) A real highlight for me was just walking around the expansive grounds, viewing the olive trees and, through the fence, the next-door vineyard. The mountains and sunsets were stunning too. Stefania keeps the property and the house in beautiful condition, and she is very accommodating in answering questions and providing what you need -- she is a fine host.

Lovely house in great surroundings, large clean swimming pool, good outdoor eating area.
Our stay was spoilt by the weather. Only 4 days of sun in 2 weeks. Owner very easy to get on with...happy to help at all times.. definetly need a car as no supermarket or small shops to hand. Kitchen could better equipped with more bowls and mugs. All pillows rather hard and we felt each bed should have at least 2. We enjoyed our stay..visited the hills,lovely Lucca and by train to a very busy Florence .

We spent a very happy week at this charming property at the beginning of September. The owner, Stefania, gave us a warm welcome, showing us round and giving us lots of useful tips - she'd also been great about answering questions by email before we arrived. The spacious garden, large swimming pool and generous outside seating area are truly exceptional - and, for us, a perfect setting for a sunny, Tuscan holiday.

We felt at home immediately in this lovely place. We stayed 2 weeks with our two dogs. The place has a very well-stocked kitchen and a huge fridge, a cozy living room and plenty of space in 2 bedrooms and one smaller extra room. The pool was amazing, even in the slightly colder autumn weather, and the pergola was our absolute favorite spot. We enjoyed our meals here, had BBQ's, or just a coffee. Stefania is a very friendly host who takes care of the property and checks in with her guests regularly. She's always ready to give a good recommendation on where to go or where to eat. Thank you, Stefania! :) Our dogs had the time of their life in the vast garden. We miss the house already! ;)
