Le Lunghe is a restored cottage in beautiful Tuscany 5 mins. walk to restaurant

"Friends of Tuscany Ltd." manage all aspects of your villa booking with tailored information to get the most from your holiday. We can help to arrange a shopping delivery service, home made meal on arrival, wine tours, children’s activities, wild swimming spots, festivals, events, and restaurant recommendations based on our personal knowledge of the area built up over 30 years.

An excellent summer or winter retreat, Le Lunghe is a lovely house in the beautiful Garfagnana region of Northern Tuscany, perched in a spectacular position on the outskirts of the medieval village of Sassi. There is a 3.5m diameter, 90cm deep, lightweight swimming pool on the lawn which is great for play or cooling off, and a paved terrace as well as a delightful shaded eating area.

The house has stunning views and is ideal for people who seek peace and solitude, but is within a few minutes walk or drive of all amenities. There are two bars and restaurants within a short walk and you shouldn't have to go much more than 10 miles in any direction to appreciate what the area has to offer.

The house has been recently restored and extended and has a fully fitted dining kitchen, sitting room with sofa bed leading to a large covered verandah and a large bathroom with shower and washing machine. Upstairs there are two double bedrooms, one with a double bed and the other with twin beds or a double.

There is an excellent restaurant in the village 5 minutes walk away.

Garfagnana is 'Hidden Tuscany' at its best. With its' stunning scenery it is the best area in Tuscany for walking and outdoor activities.
Friends of Tuscany are the oldest agency in the area, and we have close ties with an Outdoor Activities company who offer many international class adventures. Friends of Tuscany can also help you arrange Art classes with a well known artist, excursions to the Cinque Terre, Florence and Lucca, visits to vineyards, historical guided tours to Florence and Lucca, and Italian cooking lessons. A great way to see some of essential Italy.

Friends of Tuscany can help you arrange a pre-arrival shopping service, and also a prepared Tuscan meal for your arrival.

See our Facebook page Friends of Tuscany for details of local events.

Wonderful place
Le Lunghe beat all imaginable expectations: the house is wonderfully functional with dishwasher, washer and dryer and everything else you would need for a perfect stay. I can't even begin to describe the view from the property, it's simply amazing and we had it all to ourselves. The peace and quiet of the area was beyond expectation, we spent a whole month there and couldn't be happier. Giancarlo not only checked in on us to make sure everything was perfect, he became our family in that short time. We will miss Le Lunghe and Giancarlo dearly and will be back next year! Thank you!!!

Charming host and cottage in a stunning location. Our host was warm and welcoming and very kind and helpful. The property managers were helpful and was a lovely base to do day trips from. We visited Pisa and Florence within our 1 week stay.

El Lunghe
Wonderful, peaceful location, although an interesting drive to and from the property! The house was also very atmospheric with a range of tables with fantastic views of the Garfagnana to eat at and an outdoor barbecue which we made much use of. The restaurant in the nearby village of Sassi (Il Totto) is easily walkable and does one of the most authentic Italian three or four course dining experiences you could wish for. We almost literally rolled back down the hill afterwards. The star turn however is Giancarlo, both for the breakast pastries he generously provided for us and his willingness to drive our luggage up to the road at the end of the week when I was unwilling to risk doing so in the hire car.

I could look at the amazing views forever.
We chose the property with a wish list in mind: Scenery, tranquility, food, and wine. And we got it all, in spades. We had most meals under the rustic lean-to because we could look at the hills and mountains to the west, north and east. The garden is beautifully kept. There were trees with apples, pears, figs, olives and Giancarlo has a tomato vine which he encouraged us to pick. I mean, we are talking real, big, funny-shaped proper tomatoes. Delicious. As if that wasn't enough there were large rosemary bushes that went on the chicken on the BBQ and a sage that found its way into the vitello escallops we fried. Marsala wine at under 5 euros a bottle made it for an amateur's saltimbocca. Giancarlo, the host who lives next door (I use the term next door loosely) is a great fellow. Often checked to see we were ok but not in the least intrusive. The house is a restored farmhouse and all the plumbing, electrics, water, gas etc is bang up to date. TV is good and the wi-fi is excellent Shopping is easy in the huge Conad supermarket down the hill in Gallicano. The local restaurant, Il Totto, we went to four times in the week. They don't run a menu, just what they have fresh on the day. I had the best ever sliced steak in oil and balsamic sauce and we still savour the home-made ravioli with spinach and ricotta. The track down to the house is interesting but totally do-able. Our hire car, a humble 1.2litre Lancia which I dubbed "entrail-free" (gutless) made it up and down every day. In many ways this review doesn't do justice to the property. That's because it is so hard to describe serenity and mountain views. We were totally smitten by the variety of wildlife: goats, deer, friendly lizards, butterflies. In the evenings we liked to hear the owls call to each other and the sound of crickets after the sun went down.

Interior needs updating and a good clean value for money totally over priced
Nicely isolated very quiet. Nice views the track to the villa is very daunting and needs attention ok in 4x4 but anything else is a struggle if any problems English speaking woman not to helpful. Needs outside rubbish bin as have to take rubbish up to village 15 min walk or drive on daunting track house needs a good clean top to bottom cobwebs dead spiders dirty cooker and plenty of dust lamp shades filthy furniture fit for bonfire. It could be very nice. Sort it out home and away totally overpriced

Simple,clean house in amazing setting.
A clean,simple house,well equipped and with wonderful views.The area is beautiful.The owner is kind and helpful but not intrusive.The track surface to the house is poor and probably only suitable for 4wheel drive .But park on the road at the top and enjoy walking through the meadow to the house.Torches required!

Fabulous stay in picturesque location with fantastic views
We really enjoyed our week at Le Lunghe, which was beautifully presented and well equipped. Our only concern was the exposed metal reinforcing on the concrete section of the track leading to the house and we actually found it easier and more enjoyable to walk down the path from the road.

Secluded rustic Italian home in the Tuscan hills
A fantastic place to stay. This is a secluded spot on the edge of a fantastic medieval village. Despite its apparent seclusion, all amenities are within relatively easy reach. The house itself is well kept and pretty. It’s not luxurious as such, but that’s the point. This encourages exploration and there is so much to see in the local area. The trail running is wonderful and the local waterfalls/ lakes make wonderful alternatives to beach trips if you want to swim. The local restaurant is great. There is no menu but you’re served generous portions of traditional Tuscan food at seemingly impossible prices! The owner is very nice and pops in regularly to check on how things are. Although some English is spoken locally, basic Italian is definitely an advantage. We couldn’t recommend it more.
