VILLA BENEDETTA, Blessed House # 2

Villa Benedetta is located in Garfagnana, a geographic region of Tuscany very ancient and rich in traditions. It was erected in 1636 and hosted the Este nobles, in particular the Duke of Modena Francesco IV D Este who stayed there to hunt. The apartments have been created inside the very suggestive villa whose loggia, paved in stone, immediately transports the visitor into an ancient atmosphere. The location of the building dominates the valley. Exposed to the south / east, it enjoys sunlight for most of the day. The front garden, and the splendid swimming pool with sun loungers and deck chairs, allow you to rest in full relaxation. While, the ancient stone source with its spring water will help to brighten your stay. The environment is also particularly suitable for children. Relevant to the villa is the ancient family oratory which, on request, can be visited like other parts of the building.
The "Casa Benedetta" apartment consists of a double bedroom, a bedroom with two single wrought iron beds, a private bathroom, a kitchen and a lounge with a two-seat sofa bed with direct access to the veranda.

Heaven on Earth
We had the most amazing stay at Villa Benedetta with our kids. The historic charming villa just next to the pool overlooking the whole Valley. Everything is clean and looked after with respect to the history of the house. We drank the cleanist water from the mountains that ran through the villa during our stay so we didnt have to bring heavy bottles from the supermarket. You get your privacy and the feeling of being Home away from Home. All this due to our amazing host Paolo, who has the most friendly welcoming attitude towards his guests. And he makes the best pizza Margarita we all agreed :-) Paolo really would like for you as a guest to enjoy your stay. The close city Castelnuovo di Gafagnana is also a very Nice small village with a tranquill atmosphere. Thank you for having us. :-) Ciao fra Noam, Samuel, Michael & Camilla (and also Thor and Julie off course who stayed 3 nights with us :-))

Sehr gastfreundlich und sauber
Wir waren leider nur 2 Nächte, aber wir kommen wieder. Der Pool ist der Hammer .... Sauber sehr gepflegt. Wir wurden sehr herzig empfangen und fühlten uns rund um wohl. Es war alles sehr sauber, Kompliment an Paolo der sehr hilfsbereit, zuvorkommend und gastfreundlich ist. Danke für den schönen (leider sehr kurzen) Aufenthalte. Bis zum nächsten mal

Terrific stay
We stayed for a week in the apartment Benedetta at the back of the mansion which was built I believe 3 centuries ago. The mansion is being beautifully restored by Paolo the landlord. He is a very friendly, warm and funny person. We laughed a lot. He offered us real homemade pizza's on our first night because we arrived rather late. Later in the week he ' officially' cooked us a real Tuscan dinner which was really great. We enjoyed the pool and loved the view from the terrace where we used to have our breakfast. I wouldn't be surprised if many more will enjoy this place.

Fantastisk autentisk feriebolig omgivet at smukke bjerge og beliggende i skøn lille landsby.
Hvis man ønsker fred og ro i smukke omgivelser er dette stedet. Vores børn elskede poolen og free internet gjorde at de ikke kedede sig. Lejligheden var ren, stor og rummelig med et veludstyret køkken. Temperaturen i huset var fantastisk sval og specielt om natten hvor der absolut ikke var brug for aircondition. Værten var meget venlig og hjælpsom. Stedet kan ikke anbefales for gangbesværede ellers kan jeg kun give stedet mine varmeste anbefalinger.
