A slice of paradise to relax and decompress
First of all, the place is just a Tuscan dream. You wake up to the sound of the wind flowing through the mountains and a subtle sunlight that’s guarded by the mountains surrounding you. Second, the cottage is so connected to nature that it really gives you the chance to finally relax, eat, read a book or do whatever you need to recharge. Finally, Maria Luisa is such a sweet lady and she really gives you all the details (and space) you need to work around all the utilities. We highly recommend staying here if your looking to desconnect and relax.

Mooie rustige locatie in de bergen
Heerlijke rustige locatie met alles erbij wat je nodig hebt. Keuken met oven, goede bedden en badkamer en lekkere stoelen in de tuin. Plus een zwembad dat je deelt met de andere gasten. De weg ernaartoe is wel smal maar goed te doen, je went er aan.

A peaceful getaway full of nature’s beauty!
Our stay here with Maria Luisa was the best place to unwind and enjoy everything nature has to offer. As a group of 7 women we all had our own space to retreat. Whether it was at the pool, in a hammock, in the beautiful gardens, there was a place for everyone. The pool and garden area was a favourite place to enjoy the vast surroundings. Maria Luisa was a gracious host ensuring all our needs were met. One week was not long enough. Each dwelling on the property had it’s own particular charm. This home was perfect for my sister and myself. A cozy, picturesque place that we called home and look forward to returning to some day. Thank you Maria Luisa for a memorable time in Italy!

Fantastisk smukt sted
Et dejligt sted i smuk natur og dejlig ro. Skøn have og fantastisk poolområde. Man skal dog være indstillet på, at der er ca. 15 minutters kørsel fra Londa ad meget snoede og spændende veje, men de skønne omgivelser opvejer dette til fulde. Meget venlig vært. Vi var dog afsted i en meget varm uge (32-37 grader) så vi savnede aircondition for at køle boligen ned om aftenen. Og så kunne køkkenudstyret godt trænge til en opgradering. Men et helt unikt sted.

Die totale Entspannung 😁👍
Wir haben die Zeit dort sehr genossen. Ich kann es nur weiter empfehlen. Nur die letzten paar km der Anreise sind etwas Abenteuerlich. Dafür bekommt man jedoch Entspannung pur 👍 gerne wieder 👍

Erholung pur
Wir wurden sehr freundlich von Maria Luisa empfangen, waren begeistert von dem Ferienhaus, dem Garten und dem Pool. Alles ist sehr gepflegt, gemütlich und urig. Die Ruhe und die Natur (Olivenplantagen, mitten in den Bergen mit traumhaftem Ausblick) lassen 100%ige Erholung zu. Der Weg zu diesem kleinen Paradies war anfangs recht abenteuerlich, man gewöhnt sich schnell an den Weg. Wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen. Vielen Dank auch für den leckeren Wein und das Olivenöl! Es war ein toller Urlaub.

Totale Erholung
Das Haus liegt sehr idyllisch in den Bergen von Londa. Eine schmale , sehr kurvenreiche Straße führt zu den Häusern von Maria Luisa. Nachdem wir ihr unsere ungefähre Ankunft mitteilen konnten, empfing sie uns herzlich direkt am Haus. Sie wohnte mit ihrem Mann direkt an der Ferienunterkunft und konnte jederzeit angesprochen werden, was aber nicht nötig war. Das Haus ist zweckmäßig eingerichtet. Die Betten sind bequem und alles ist sehr sauber. Natürlich ist bei einem alten Haus, welches ursprünglich ein Stall und eine Scheune war, nicht alles modern. Aber uns hat das Einfache gefallen. Besonders gut hat uns gefallen, dass trotz hoher Temperaturen, der Schlafbereich kühl blieb. An die Mücken und Fliegen mussten wir uns gewöhnen. Aber das lag bestimmt am der Jahreszeit und dem Klima. Die Kinder waren happy mit dem wlan und wir alle haben Abkühlung im Pool genossen. Wir sind mehrfach nach Florenz und können das Parkhaus unter dem mercarto centrale empfehlen. Von dort kommt man gut überall gut hin. Das Restaurant il colonnello ist sehr zu empfehlen und liegt ca. 15 min von Londa Stadt entfernt in den Bergen (Achtung: wieder viele Kurven uns steile , enge Straße). Zusammenfassend lässt sich sagen, dass wir eine sehr schöne Zeit in Londa hatten. Gerne wieder.
