Awesome Villa
Wow what a great place! Perfect for four adult’s and four kids. Gated pool was a huge bonus, when locked we could let the kids explore the large terraced garden whilst the adults took in the amazing views with a glass of wine. Christina left a huge welcome basket and had some great advice on the area. Would love to go back!

Fantastic villa in beautiful rural location
We had a wonderful holiday at Villa Oliva, is located in the beautiful and peaceful town of Campo in the Garfagnana region. The house is spacious and so well equipped although there is no Aircon. The fans provided helped on the hot nights. Cristina left us a welcome basket with lots of local produce which was delightful. The pool was loved by the kids and the villa was surrounded by lots of local produce which we were allowed to eat such as grapes, olives, herbs and fruit. The view from the villa across the hills was breath taking and enjoyed at every opportunity. We visited lots of fabulous towns such as Lucca, Gallicano, Pisa, Castelnuovo & even went to the beach for the day at Livorno. The only downside was the number of midgie bites we got which isn't the fault of the villa or owners. it was just an inconvenience and irritation. We would highly recommend this property to others and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay there.

Idyllic location
A beautiful villa in the Tuscan hills with lots of great villages and towns nearby to visit. We were met at the villa by Cristina, who was very friendly and helpful and had even left us a welcome basket of provisions, including the olive oil that is produced there. We were also given some really useful notes on things to do in the area, which we used a lot throughout the week. The kids loved the pool, which was lovely and warm and a good size for swimming. A fantastic week and thoroughly recommended!

Everything we'd hoped for - and more!
Villa Oliva proved the ideal holiday location for all 3 generations of our family. We loved the pool and it's surroundings - ideally located, and well equipped. For a family of foodees, the kitchen was generously equipped and the bar b q a source of delicious dinners - no need to venture far to eat well! The views were spectacular and our host, Christina, could not have been more helpful.
