Small-scaled, authentic and child-friendly. The ruralhut is surrounded by vineyards, olive groves and forests against the foothills of the Apennines at an altitude of about 450 metres. From the area where this ruralhut is located, you have a beautiful view over the valley of Pescia and Uzzano (in the Pistoia province). You can even see Lucca and Monte Serra, behind which Pisa is located, and you can observe a glimpse of the sea in clear weather. A winding road brings you to the farm that has been completely ecologically rebuilt and equipped with all modern comfort. There are two apartments and two fully furnished safari tents on the domain. A little further in the woods is another lodge that is also completely furnished. Each accommodation has a barbeque. The owners have dogs, cats, two donkeys. The latter may bray at night. Dogs are welcome (up to two per family), provided that they are sociable with the other animals of course. The tents are fenced and can be provided with a doghouse. Please report this when booking.
Nature and surroundings
The scenery of Tuscany is very suitable for beautiful walks. The towns and villages are sometimes true outdoor museums. Especially outside the high season you will not encounter many tourists while at the same time being very pleasant due to the lower temperature. Furthermore, there is the option to take one of the donkeys to carry the luggage. Small children can ride on their backs for a while after a long walk. The ancient city of Pescia about 6 km away is an important centre for flower cultivation and has a large flower auction. There is also a big flower exhibition every two years. Collodi at about 8 km distance, is where you can visit the Park of Pinocchio or the beautiful Villa Garzoni with its gardens landscaped against the mountain side. Several villas of the Medici are located between Pescia and Lucca. Montecatini and Monsumano Terme both located at about ten kilometer distance have elegant Liberty-style thermal complexes, where you can clean your mind and body with bathing, mud baths, massages and drinking of healing water. Lucca, about 20 km away, with its beautiful city walls surrounding the inner-city, where an antique market takes place every third Sunday of the month in a large part of the city centre. At 20 km distance one will find a beautiful natural swamp area where many, often rare, (water) plants and birds can be spotted. There are nine hiking routes in the area. The "Centro di Ricerca, Documentazione e Promozione del Padule di Fucecchio" in Castelmartini organizes walks for adults and children.

Unfortunately, the tent we had rented was disappointing. Especially the fact that it was not clean was reason for us to move on after only 1 night. This was possible in good consultation with the owner regarding the financial aspect.
Helaas viel de tent die we hadden gehuurd ons tegen. Met name dat het niet schoon was is reden geweest om al na 1 nacht door te reizen. Dit kon in goed overleg met de eigenares wat betreft het financiële aspect.
The tent is in a small campground, on top of a mountain accessed by a narrow road.
De tent staat op een kleinschalige camping, bovenop een berg die via een smalle weg te bereiken is.

The cottage is beautifully located in a cozy campground on a hill with nice views. You do hear some noise from the town below. The safari tent is in the donkey enclosure which on the one hand is very cozy but on the other hand makes you eat, sleep in the manure smell, your clothes start to smell like it etc. The tent cannot be closed, lots of moths and spiders inside. It is cozy but the mattresses are bad and musty. There are musty synthetic blankets in a closet for when only sheets are too fresh. Cushions on the chairs and benches are also far from clean. When also the owner's dog in heat was running around in the tent bleeding on chair and bench (there is a fence but the dachshund just walks under it) we decided to leave. Plumbing was slightly cleaner than the tent but could be better maintained. There is no room to change in the shower and there are no privacy. Owner does not take the trouble to respond to mail with explanation of early departure and request for the remaining days money back.
Het huisje ligt prachtig op een gezellige camping op een heuvel met mooi uitzicht. Je hoort wel wat lawaai van de stad beneden. De safaritent ligt in het ezelverblijf wat enerzijds heel gezellig is maar anderzijds ook zorgt dat je in de mestlucht eet, slaapt, je kleding er naar gaat ruiken etc. De tent kan niet dicht, veel motten en spinnen binnen. Hij is gezellig ingericht maar de matrassen zijn slecht en muf. Er liggen muffe synthetische dekentjes in een kast voor als alleen lakens te fris zijn. Ook kussentjes op de stoelen en bankjes zijn verre van schoon. Toen ook nog de loopse hond van de eigenaresse in de tent rondliep te bloeden op stoel en bankje (er is een hekje maar de tekkel loopt er gewoon onderdoor) hebben we besloten te vertrekken. Sanitair was iets schoner dan de tent maar mag wel beter bijgehouden. Er is geen ruimte om je om te kleden bij de douche en van die louvredeurtjes waardoor er geen privacy is. Kan ook niet op slot.
Eigenaresse neemt niet de moeite te reageren op mail met uitleg van vervroegd vertrek en verzoek om van de resterende dagen geld terug te storten.Beautiful surroundings
Prachtige omgeving

The tent is large and everything works well.
The furniture and the cutlery and crockery are from the thrift store, but that adds atmosphere. The bed is not comfortable.De tent is groot en alles werkt goed.
De meubels en het bestek en het servies zijn uit de kringloopwinkel, maar dat geeft wel sfeer. Het bed ligt niet lekker.It was quiet and large. Lots of flowers, trees and animals. Sometimes in the evening music from the town below.
Het was rustig en groot. Veel bloemen, bomen en dieren. Soms in de avond muziek vanuit de stad beneden.
