The villa was quite large with good sized bedrooms and plenty of bathrooms. The kitchen was large, had a dishwasher and more plates, glasses, silverware and cookware than 12 people could possibly use! The washing machine was used several times as we had a baby travelling with us and it worked very well. The pool was beautiful and had a whirlpool section. The grounds were magnificently planted and kept. There was a grass tennis court, pool table, football, ping pong table and even a small fish pond. The gym has equipment that is fairly old but there is a treadmill, stepper, bike and a few hand weights with a bench. The caretakers were lovely and lived just adjacent to the property. We scheduled the wine tasting which was a lot of fun as well as the cooking class. Who knew we could make pasta ourselves that tasted so good?! We also reserved Elena to cook dinner for us which was absolutely delicious. It's a little tricky to find and the driveway leading to the villa from the road can be a bit scary as it is narrow and winds up a hill but it's worth it. I have no hesitation in recommending this property and would gladly return there myself.

Don't look any further for your dream vacation! Email communication was prompt and courteous. Arrangements were fully described and the property was exactly as advertised. I had originally reserved a date that I had to postpone as our son and daughter in law announced they were due to have a baby around that date. I was given a discount equal to my forfeited deposit when I rebooked for the following year.

The owners are exceptionally welcoming, friendly and generous. The wine tasting and cookery lessons were fantastic, authentic and thoroughly enjoyable. The villa itself is very spacious with lots of things do if you stay in. The kitchen is very well equipped, and in the garden there are many loungers and seating areas for every occasion Toiletries are provided, but are basic and functional. The gym is old & minimal.

Villa Denise is an amazing rustic Villa at the top of a nerve wrecking drive up to it ! The road was quite narrow for our Fiat Ducato, it was just the width of the car in some parts. Elena , Antonio and Pongo warmly greeted us and showed us the Villa. they couldn't have made us feel more welcome. Facilities were perfect for our 3 generations, ranging from 83 years down to 17. Loved the comfy sitting room for the evenings with the big pool table, plenty of competitions and laughs had by all. The extra large outdoor dining table was fab, where all our meals and days adventures were discussed and planned. Elena gave a fabulous cookery lesson, which we all enjoyed the fruits of ! What an experience !! Also, Elena cooked for us on our last night, what a great meal! Both are a must to book !! We purchased their own wine, limoncello and olive oil to bring home. Superb! Antonio also recommended and booked his favourite local restaurant for us on one evening. Would highly recommend this Villa for large family groups, especially with small kids. Pool, tennis, football pitch, table soccer, ping pong table, plenty to keep them amused while you sunbathe and swim. Not too far from the lovely city of Lucca and the beaches along the coast.

Dear Agostino and Elena, We have had a truly wonderful time on our summer family holiday. We had a wonderful quality time together. Our children loved playing in the pool and our youngest daughter swimming really improved. The perfect location, Lucca so close and also the beach. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home.

This week has been a dream come true. Everything about this villa was perfect. The rooms are comfortable and the kitchen was everything needed and more. there are so many activities available on the property that we didn't have the time to do them all. Agostino and Elena (and Cloe) are the most gracious hosts. Cooking class was the best! Of course Elena’s fine cooking was wonderful. Thank you for making this a terrific vacation for all of us!

We had a magical time here at Villa Denise. Everything we needed was provided for. We made full use of the facilities, especially the pool, pool table and BBQ. The highlight of the day was sitting down together for the evening meal, eating what we had prepared from the local products helped by a generous supply of oils, wine and limoncello! The sun shine every day, a factor which will enhance the memories we take home from our trip to Tuscany.

Thank you such a wonderful host and hostess. You made us feel welcome form the moment we arrived. Enjoyed all the samplings of your wine, and limoncello. Of course dinner Elena that you prepared for our 44th anniversary will never be forgotten. We found the villa to be charming and enjoyed the warmth of the wood burning fireplace in October. Loved going to Lucca, walking the wall, and visiting all the villages close by. Thank you again for making our stay so special. The highlight of our Tuscan experience has to be meeting Elena and Agostino. Two wonderful individuals, who truly know the meaning of hospitality. Our invitation to the tastes of Tuscany began with Elena’s olive oil, wines, jams and preserves all served in a wonderful culinary display. We truly enjoyed their warmth and generosity and welcoming us to both Villa Denise and their home. Lucca is thick in history and amenities. Puccini evening was very special for all of us. Thank you to our gracious hosts for providing us with many memorable moments.

All the Tomasson family enjoyed their stay at Villa Denise. we specifically liked the surroundings the house, pool and really everything here. Not the least did we enjoy the good atmosphere and kindness from Agostino and Elena. We will specially remember the wine tasting and the two super meals cooked by Elena. We look forward to come here again.

Agostino and Elena were lovely, warm and welcoming hosts. The location of the villa got the balance just right, being close to lots of historic and interesting places to visit, whilst enjoying peaceful and quiet surroundings. We feel in love with Lucca. plenty to do for all of us at the villa, the pool, pool table and ping pong were great hits with this family. Fantastic home produced wines and oil and the highlight of the week, a wonderful birthday meal by Elena, what a treat. Thanks for the cake and fizz. A brilliant place to begin our exploration of Tuscany, very much hope to be back.

A mixed party of 10 - ages 6 to 47. We had the most relaxing time here, enjoying the great cooking facilities (in doors and out) - yes - we lit the pizza oven and made our own. Thank you also for the wonderful meal on our first night here. We also enjoyed and recommend the home-grown produce - wine, olive oil and enjoyed some fresh figs picked straight form the tree. the variety you provide here from the pool, ping pong and billiards were fabulous and kept our children and young adults thoroughly entertained.

Villa Denise…our home from home for the past two weeks- wow- what a place. We have had the best holiday here, with much fun, laughter and relaxation. Te pool is just fantastic and all the other activities here have meant we haven't ventured very far form here!!! Elena, the two meals you cooked for us were exceptional and loved by all, especially Rachel's birthday cake. as all other visitors have testified-the wine, limoncello, jams, chutneys, and olive oil you produce here are outstanding. We have eaten and drank here so well!!! Both Elena and Aogostino have been wonderful hosts, nothing was ever to much trouble for them and we loved having Pongo around the place what a sweet boy he is. Thank you both- Grazie mille!

Had a lovely time in Villa Denise. Many towns, cities and historic places within an easy drive. Elena cooked us up some awesome Italian classics a true highlight of the trip, and the vino was a treat not to miss. Enjoyed some late evenings by the pool and the pool table was the location of some late night completion. A sweet Italian holiday.

What a lovely place to celebrate Nana's 75th birthday. The villa accommodated 2 grandparents 5 x 40 something's and 4 teenagers, all happy to rest and relax when required in the lovely garden and cool off in the pool. Do not dive too deep. Elena cooked like a true professional on 4 occasions and we loved it all our waist are certainly larger than when we arrived. Agostino and Elena are very attentive and helpful providing all sorts of bits and bobs we had forgotten or run out of. Trips to Pisa and Florence gave the kids some culture they will never forget. Fantastic holiday!
