  : We enjoyed our visit to A Casa Del Tosi. The facility is family owned for over a generation. The hospitality was great. Antonella provided great restaurant recommendations and helped book reservations for us. Breakfast was nice. We had a great conversation with her son, Leonardo about travel in Italy. We enjoyed our stay in the country rather than centrally in a highly touristy area. Our children enjoyed seeing the cats/dog/chickens/donkeys on site. They also appreciated the pool after a long day of sightseeing. We were able to visit Pisa and the walled city of Lucca during the stay.

  : Situated at the foot of Tuscan mountains and run by the most welcoming family imaginable, you would struggle to find a more genuine and rustic Italian experience. The family live in a house on their working farm, which produces olives, vine fruit, honey and more. They've renovated some attached buildings to create a couple of self-contained family holiday apartments and the whole place looks amazing. The one we stayed in was packed with traditional features, had loads of space and a pool in the incredible gardens, which was much appreciated in the 30+ degrees heat. The kids loved the many animals who also lived there including several cats, a dog and some donkey. Antonella could not have been a better or more friendly host. Nothing is any trouble at all and she also provides a delicious and filling buffet breakfast every morning. There's something for everyone, even the vegans. Her husband and son were also very welcoming and never failed to look up from their work to wave and say hi. The quiet location is perfect for getting away from a busy life although you definitely need a car to get around. It's in a mountainous region close to the walled city of Lucca, the coast with its endless beaches and major cultural hubs such as Florence. If you need any local information or tips, Antonella is more than happy to help and gave us several recommendations that were far better than what we had planned. And I promise to practice my Italian more on Duolingo before the next visit :)
  : The wifi isn't great but it's nice to be away from it for a bit so who cares?

  : The hostess is very nice
  : Everything is old, musty, not maintained, not clean. There is no ventilation in the bathroom. It can be said that there is potential if only they maintain it properly
