Surrounded by snow-capped mountains, bird-song and the best Italian hospitality, i will recommend this piece of paradise to anyone! After spending a few busy days in Florence and Rome, our family of 6 adults, a 2-year old and 9 month old baby could do with a few days of relaxing...there is no place on earth better to do just that than this wonderful b&b. It is reached via a narrow winding road through a magnificent landscape. We were welcomed with an amazing home-cooked dinner and showed to our rooms which are modestly comfortable while still reminiscent of the old building and activities of many many years ago. The breakfast of fresh yogurt, breads and a different cake each morning was lovely. The little one loved feeding the donkeys and exploring the unique surroundings. It was truly an experience we'll remember forever and we hope to be back some time soon for some cooking lessons with Ilaria!

Thank you for everything Ilaria! We have spent a wonderfull week end in your house, a magic place to relax and enjoy the nature. Your welcome was great, full of little surprises that permit us to completly enjoy our trip. We hope to come back soon! Regards, Morgane and Marine

We had a great time and dinner . The house is cozy. Leonardo was very welcoming and friendly. we enjoy the dinner and wine very much. A lovely stay and would come again, thank you.

We did not meet Ilaria herself as she was away, but she communicated wonderfully up until we arrived. We were greeted by Leonardo, who would be our excellent host for the next 2 days. We had the whole place to ourselves and it was lovely! We had dinner there both nights, which was delicious and a real showcase for their garden. We also had a fun cooking lesson with Leonardo. The waterfall close by is beautiful and a real treat! Thanks again for the lovely stay!

I cannot say enough positive things about our stay! Ilaria & Stefano were wonderful. Ilaria helped reserve a tour of a local castle and winery. The winery was fabulous! We had 2 dinners prepared by Ilaria and they both were amazing! We were a group of 6 friends (35-45yrs old).The location is a little more difficult to get to, but it is worth it. Listen to the reviews & stay here, you won't regret it!!

Ilaria and Stefano are wonderful hosts and their b&b is a fantastic place to spend some quiet days relaxing and enjoying the country life. The rooms are charming and rustic and the surrounding ancient stone buildings full of history and the past. We chose to eat in most of the nights we stayed there and it was a welcome sanctuary after busy days of visiting the local sites. Ilaria and Stefano prepared fantastic feasts of local foods and specialties and for breakfasts there was a hearty range on homemade jams, breads and cakes. We would highly recommend to stay at Ilaria's and Stefano's.

If you are looking for a place far away from the crowds but close enough for day trips to Cinque Terre this is the place to be. An amazing rustic experience tucked up in the mountains with amazing service and loving hosts.

Ilaria and Stefano stayed up late to welcome us and show us to our room. We rented a car in Pisa and the process and drive took longer than we had planned. Ilaria and Stefano were very understanding and accommodating. Ilaria gave us wonderful driving instructions and we found their bnb in the dark without any problems! Our room was amazing, very clean with private bathroom, sitting area, mini fridge and beautiful views of the mountains! Breakfast was served in the dining room. Very easygoing atmosphere. Stefano made me some wonderful coffee and Ilaria gave us a map and recommended places to visit and places in Cinque Terre that were less crowded than others. They are a wonderful couple and their communication with their guests is perfect. Loved the quiet location and the opportunity to meet other guests staying at the bnb as well. One evening we sat out in the courtyard with a sweet German couple sipping wine and enjoying the star-filled sky. After our busy tour-filled trip in Venice, Rome, Amalfi, Pompeii and Pisa, this stay at Stefano and Ilaria's was much needed and enjoyed!

Beautiful location in the mountains. Wonderful accommodation in a classic Tuscan house. During our stay we visited Florence, Pisa, Genoa (aquarium), Cinque Terre and the splendid beach of the city of Vada. We thank Fabio grandfather Ugo for everything you've done for us. They were beautiful days spent in Tuscany. Accommodation in Peretola recommend to all those who love beautiful rural surroundings of Tuscany and want to experience the beauty of Italy.

It is like the house. Beautiful old furniture (except the kitchen, bathrooms and sofas). Very nice host and his friend Hugo, who met us and showed all (much late arrival).

It was a wonderful week in Jacopos House! It is a very beautiful cottage in the countryside, very tasteful furnished, perfectly equipped with everything you need. We spent every evening at the nice terrace in the backyard, having dinner. It is perfectly located for trips to Firenze or Cinque Terre...or anywhere in Tuscany..:-) WE ENJOYED IT!!! Very recommendable!

Last week we enjoyed our stay in Magliano at the house of Lopoco. The house was clean, good equiped and nicely decorated. The outdoor kitchen and BBQ functioned very nicely. Lopoco reacted very responsive when the house required urgent maintenance on sunday and compensated us for the inconvenience.

We spent a wonderful week in Iacopos house in Magliano. Far from everywhere, with breathtaking view on the valley, was a great place to escape to, but also very good starting point to get to know Lunigiana, possibly the most unknown part of Tuscany (during the whole week we only met one nonitalian car in the area). The house is built of stone and impressively tastefully furnished nad equipped. Guest will find whatever they might need in the kitchen and both bathrooms, including fluffy white towels, reminding of a 4 star hotel ;) Small garden is another great feature, while you can relax there reading books and listening to 'italian sounds of the village'. We enjoyed it very much. PS: If looking for a good meal nearby, check Beatrice Pizza and restaurant in Monti.

We spent a week at Iacopo's sweet little house in Magliano. The house is very well equipped and is located in the romantic and almost lonely and small village Magliano. All went well and i can absolutely recommend having a vacation at Iacopos. Many thanks to the pleasent host.

Magliano liegt in einer wunderschönen Gegend, mit vielen Olivenbäumen. Das Haus ist bestens ausgestattet, mit viel Geschmack eingerichtet. Alles ist sehr sauber. Iacopo ist freundlich und hilfsbereit. Alles bestens(URL HIDDEN)G.

Il cottage è davvero ben accessoriato con tutto ciò che serve sia in termini di biancheria che di attrezzature per la cucina (pentole di tutte le dimensioni, microonde, fornelli e forno adeguati a chi, come noi, vuole cucinare in casa). L'arredamento è molto bello e coniuga in modo egregio lo stile rustico con quello moderno. Insomma c'è tutto quello che serve per fare una bellissima vacanza in tranquillità così come abbiamo fatto noi. Grazie Jacopo.

The photos don't do the place justice, it's charming and very comfortable. The hosts are generous and attentive. Our three young children had a wonderful time. Throughly recommended.

We had a wonderful stay in Fivizzano. The house is wonderful and is set on a hillside with an amazing view. My children enjoyed the pool tremendously. Our travel plans changed at the last moment and Rosalind was extremely easy to work with. She and I communicated quickly and efficiently while she arranged everything with her house caretaker. From initial contact to our arrival in the home was less than twenty-four hours although we did pay an additional 50 Euros for that assistance. We feel fortunate to have been able to stay in such a wonderful home.

Excellent pool, fantastic views: we loved our seven nights here, and highly recommend!

Our main concern initially was actually finding the house but Ros' instructions brought us straight to the house pretty easily. The house itself is beautiful and the surroundings are just stunning, the views from the balconies were fantastic. We were really impressed with the pool as well which was bigger than we expected and again the views from the pool area were excellent. Used the wood-burning oven one night which was great. Easy enough to get into Fivizzano in the car, however the roads were very narrow and winding so we chose not to do them in the dark! There was a little problem when we arrived as we could not get in but this was sorted quite quickly. We all really enjoyed our stay, we made pizzas in the wood fire oven and sat out every meal time. The weather was fabulous and we would definitely return!

We had a lovely stay at Anicia and Alessandro's B&B. We were welcome with a special drink and all the rest of our stay was full of little attentions! They helped us to discover some secrets of their region: little river to swim, beautiful and typical village,... The breakfast was amazing, Anicia is such a great cooker! The room is spacious and fully equiped: TV on the ceiling, hammam in the bathroom and even a little place to make its own tea! The B&B is closed to the sea, only 30 minutes by car. You can have a nice day at the beach and then come back to relax in the mountain. To sum up, if you want to discover a typical region and meet wonderful people, B&B Quiconti is the right place to be!

Beautiful room, kingsize bed and a great bathroom. Nice people who are very helpfull. We had a good time in this little village in the mountains.

B&B QuiConti è davvero superiore ad ogni aspettativa: l'accoglienza di Alessandro e Anicia è stata incredibile. Siamo arrivati in una serata di brutto tempo, dopo un pranzo pasquale complesso e ci hanno preparato degli stuzzichini squisiti preparati in casa: salame, involtini di bresaola, formaggi, miele, torta di mele, té etc. La camera è gradevolissima, con tanto di diffusione musicale nel bagno (bellissimo) con sauna. La colazione è stata ancora più sorprendente e la loro disponibilità superlativa. Bravissimi

Sarebbe semplice usare la formula collaudata relativa agli " antichi valori di una volta" per descrivere la nostra esperienza presso il QuiConti B&B, come se "una volta" fosse tutto meraviglioso... Oggi, 2/5/2015 noi abbiamo trovato due persone speciali, gentili, competenti, talentuose per ciò che riguarda l'accoglienza, la cura dell'ospite, coccole enogastronomiche abbinate ad una conoscenza del territorio veramente rara, un equilibrio perfetto di familiarità e discrezione. Grazie Anicia e Alessandro

The house is in the north of tuscany in a small village next to Fivizzano. The rooms are perfectly clean and absolutely cozy. After all, this was by far our best airbnb experience. Their hospitality is outstanding, the food including self made bread, jam, crepes with chocolate sauce and delicate italien specials give you a great impression about how good italian cuisine can be ... Thank you Ilaria and Leonardo for this special time:-)

Magnificent!! A treasure i would like to keep a secret but don't want to be selfish. What a beautiful place! Ilaria was very communicative and sweet, Leonardo was so welcoming and such an amazing chef. Our stay was very relaxing and the surroundings were very peaceful. Our room was very clean and quaint. We took a little drive to the river and went swimming, we went into the small town of Fivizzano and had a great lunch, the animals on the property were so wonderful and at night we got our own personal light show with all the fireflies. Would definitely come back the next time in Italy!!

Love the hamlet! Ilaria made us feel so welcome, and the hamlet and the surrounding land is gorgeous. Her food is amazing, one of our favorite meals in italy, very memorable. Highly recommended for a very special relaxing experience off the beaten path. Thank you Ilaria!

Lovely and cozy place to stay,Ilaria and Stephano are really a great host.thank you

Our stay at Luna Di Quaranazza was great. The building is a very special place and Illaria has done an incredible job of doing it up and decorating it with a lot of character. The town itself is tiny and if you want restaurants etc. you'll have to drive to find it but we were here just to relax and enjoy this amazing place. Leonardo cooks up an amazing Italian dinner which we loved eating under the stars in their tiny piazza, and we loved being shown around the vegetable gardens by Mario and being introduced to Ciuffo the donkey. Illaria's breakfast was also a great experience. Even for one night it was worth the long and windy drive up the mountain!

An incredible place to stay. The views are just awesome and there is nothing bad to say. It was all good. The food, Ilaria and her husband. We couldn't recommend it more. Also the little waterfall/pools nearby is too good to miss.

This place is a bit heaven, after a winding drive up to the village, park the car, and walk down to the most peaceful atmospheric courtyards you will see. Sit, relax and soak it up . Ilaria is a wonderful host and with her husband, and chef produced the most amazing Tuscan food we have ever had. Together with great wine and legendary cat Beni, this place is perfect. The whole house is decorated vintage style, and beautifully done. Thankyou Ilaria, we will be back.

I can't recommend Ilaria's homestay high enough! We only stayed two nights, but it was definitely a highlight of my trip to italy. She's such a warm, gracious host, and we felt so welcome there. The village is about an hour drive from cinqueterre, but the quiet, rural setting was so much more preferable to the crazy tourist areas. We arrived a little late because we got lost along the way because we kept ending up off the highway, unintentionally. Once we were on the small roads into the hills it was very easy to find. When we arrived we joined the cooking class and were so lucky to share the experience and dinner under the stars with another family of guests who were fabulous to get to know. The room is clean, cozy, well appointed and has everything you can need. The food we had for dinner and breakfast was incredible. I'm so glad Ilaria's place popped up on our airbnb search. It looked perfect from the photos, but our experience staying there far surpassed any expectations. Thank you Illaria, for an amazing stay!

Staying at Giulia's house was wonderful. The house is quiet small but you find everything you need to spend a nice and calm holiday (e.g. fully equipped little kitchen, washing machine, dryer, wifi,...). The best part of the house is the garden, which you have for your own. You can lie under the big trees and swim in the great swimming pool. An awesome place to relax! There is a small mini market in the town, but you should go to one of the bigger towns if you want to have a greater selection of - the brilliant - local food. Giulia was super friendly and helpful, even if we saw her only once during our whole stay. Grazie Giulia for having us as you guests - we enjoyed it so much!!

Our host was charming throughout our stay and met us at the property even though we were late due to getting lost a few times. Due to the patchy weather we spent more time inside the (large) studio than we'd hoped which wasn't made with tall people in mind. A few teething problems with hot water which were sorted out immediately. TV and Wifi reception a bit of problem given the location but a friendly bar a few minutes walk away solved that. A lovely pool and beautiful location but very remote and restaurants not always opened when you imagine they might be; stock up at a decent supermarket beforehand if you intend to stay for any length of time, preferably not one in Aulla .

Guilias place was fantastic. Lazy days sitting by the pool under the Tuscan sun was a good way to escape the grind. The house has a very functional kitchen with a good stove and oven. Beds are comfy and everything is in good working order. The tomatoes from the shop down the road we better than a cold shower on a 38degree day. All in all a vey enjoyable stay, we will be back!

Enjoyed our stay - very quiet and secluded place :-) Giulia was a very attentive host leaving tips for things to do and advise on where to go for grocery shopping. The garden and pool area was excellent. The indoor area and kitchen acceptable. Only minor thing was difficulties with the wifi - but was good enough for the basic necessities. All in all we enjoyed our stay and would recommend the place if passing by :-)

Giulia is the perfect host and her place is absolutely wonderful! The pool is fantastic and we hope to come back soon!

I think the first word that comes into mind when thinking of this place is wow. It is truly stunning. The property lays above the small village of crespiano, surrounded by lush forests and hills for as far as the eye can see. The view from the front window is something you will never forget. At night when the stars come out, the whole area feels magical. The gardens of the house exceeded all expectations. Giulia does a wonderful job of keeping it perfectly maintained. Making it a great place to sit my the stunning pool, and just relax. We have all stayed in air bnb properties before, but never have we come across such a good host. Giulia was always there if we needed anything, wether it was advice on the best nearby beaches, or how to work the wifi, Giulia always did her best. She was friendly, warm and helpful, and made us feel totally at home. What more could you ask for? We honestly could not recommend this property enough. It is a great location to go hiking, river swimming and mountain biking, but also for more relaxing things such as days around the pool, trips to the beach or near by cities such as Lucca. We have had a truly amazing time

This house is a dream. A lovely bungalow, beautiful large green yard amd a luxurious pool. And Giulia and her aunt are great hosts! This part of Tuscany is not discovered yet by many turist so you get the real local Italian experience. Our kids also loved it! We will definitly return.

Nous avons passé une très bonne semaine, le cadre est parfait et correspond exactement à ce que nous recherchions, merci à notre très sympatique hôte. A bientôt!

We stayed New Year's Eve in this wonderful casa..un Po out of the way but easy to get .. Giovanna was accurate, friendly and very kind host us in and help us get to the house .. Beautiful place in the countryside ..

Giovanna was lovely. She met us in the town center and drove us to the a nearby parking spot where she moved our bags to her 4x4 and drove us the rest of the way to her idyllic secluded BnB. The apt was clean and the view spectacular. We watched local wildlife during our dinner on the terrace. She also told us where we could find a natural swimming pool in the river, just near Pognana. We stayed for 2 nights and would definitely visit again.

What an incredible house with stunning views of the surrounding Tuscan hills! We had the most amazing week. The house has everything you need and perfect for families or a group of friends!!

This has to be one of the most peaceful places to stay - it is so beautiful, photos cannot do it justice. The rooms are stunning and everything has been thought through to make your stay as special as possible. Roberta and Alberto are charming and superb hosts. Loved it and that pool is amazing.

Magnifique maison, accueil vraiment chaleureux et familiale.

Havre de paix dans les collines de la Lunigiana, nous avons profité d'un séjour d'exception où nous etions tout seuls car avions réservés les 2 chambres. Idéal pour déconnecter et se ressourcer.

Accès facile, accueil chaleureux, cadre époustouflant, chambre bien propre.
