Casa Tognarello, Diecimo - Borgo a Mozzano - Lucca
This spacious 300-year-old farmhouse has bags of character. The owners have cleverly added touches of modern luxury in the bathrooms and kitchen, while the original terracotta floors, stone walls, high ceilings, exposed beams and scattered antiques speak of history. Casa Tognarello will easily absorb up to eight guests, its large rooms, terraces and private pool offering parties of family or friends the chance to gather or chill out separately, as moods dictate.
It will be genuinely difficult to stir from this house and substantial garden, with its pool and views of surrounding mountainous terrain, but medieval Lucca and Barga are close by, with Pisa less than an hour’s drive. If your party is more activity orientated, the beach and carnival at Viareggio are also within easy reach; or choose from local walking, cycling, tennis (Lucca) or golf (Massarosa). In the heat, the house is delightfully cool. Two terraces, both with table and chairs, offer alternatives for outdoor dining in a balmy evening breeze. As the summer wanes, an open fireplace in the lounge beckons.

Our Thoughts
Casa Tognarello’s beautiful rooms and rural setting offer a holiday that will live in the memory for a lifetime. Where else will you find an artwork made from a 1951 Moto Guzzi motorbike on the bathroom wall, together with an exquisite antique side table and bookcase of German literature? One day, the pool will be the favourite hangout, the next perhaps the welcoming kitchen or light-filled lounge. Generous is the word that seems to sum it all up.
Notes
Four bedrooms. Three bathrooms. An elderly person lives next door whose cats you are likely to see, but this will not affect your privacy. You are welcome to help yourself to fruit from the garden.
Bumpy unpaved road
The oval-shaped swimming pool, surrounded by stone paving (supplied with sunbeds) and a well-maintained lawn, offers a panorama of the surrounding mountains. To one side a vine-covered pergola gives shade. The water is accessed via metal ladder steps.
The pool is chlorine cleansed, it is 8x4 metres and 1.4 metres deep. It's open from early may to the end of September, weather permitting.

Guest reviews: Casa Tognarello 
Aidlingen, GermanyWould you like to translate?
Das großzügige Haus (welches wir nur zu viert beiwohnten) ist sehr individuell, es trifft altes auf neues. Vor allem auch die große Küche hatte es uns angetan. Wunderbar sind die verschiedenen Sitzgelegenheiten draußen, zu jeder Tageszeit ein passendes Schattenplätzchen! Der Pool ist sauber und gepflegt, unsere Kinder (6+8)) hatten dort sehr viel Spaß.
Im Ort ist eine Pizzeria die ist zu Empfehlen, hat aber nur Donnerstag bis Sonntag
geöffnet. Einkaufen kann man 10 Kilometer weiter in einem Supermarkt da bekommt man alles. 1 Kilometer vom Haus gibt es eine Bäckerei und halt Kleinigkeiten.
