A little about the area
Pass beside the famouse Devil's bridge on the way up from Lucca, and 20 minutes later you will reach this old Mill ocated 500M down an unmade track road, beside a trout stream.
The very pretty village of Coreglia with its basic shops and two restaurants is only a 1.5km walk (uphill). and there are plenty of other places to eat within a 15/20 minute drive.
For days out:
Lucca: Coreglia itself is situated in the Media Valle part of the Comune di Lucca, only a 40 minute drive from the wonderful walled City of Lucca itself where one can cycle or walk the ample intact walls, visit the 100 churches, climb towers, designer shop til you drop, go to concerts, daily opera recitals, or just people watch with coffee or prosecco in one of the many piazzas. Dining is a treat.
Pisa with its famous leading tower- 1 hour
Beaches of the Versilia - 1 hour
Florence - 1 hour 15 mins
The majestic Garfagnana is only a 20 minute drive away with its National Parks and stunning scenery, good local food, and ancient fortress.
If you like adventure then there are various country adventure parks with zip wiring, tree climbing, rock climbing, caving, river canyoning, paddleboarding etc. Choose from Parco Levegliese, Orrido di Botri, the river Lima, Buffardello park and Grotta del Vento which is a a fascinating cave system in the mountains. These trips vary from a half hour to 40 minute drive.
A visit to Barga is recommended - a half hour drive, and here you will find markets under the stars, regular music, well regarded restaurants, and there is alot of art too. Visit the Cathedral commanding this mediaeval town from above and admire the stunning views of the area.
The real beauty of this area is the hundreds of hill top villages to discover and the wonderful countryside.

We stayed for nine days as a family of seven and had an excellent experience. The property offers great value for money and is set in a truly unique and remote location in the mountains near Coreglia Antelminelli. We were initially surprised by how remote it was. The surrounding area is vast, peaceful, and perfect for relaxing or exploring.The weather was quite hot during our visit, and the pool was incredibly useful — a great way to cool off and enjoy the beautiful views. Paola, the host, was very pleasant and helpful, making sure we had everything we needed. Altogether, a memorable and special place to stay in the Tuscan countryside.

We enjoyed a fantastic two weeks in this stunning part of Italy - a place of forests, mountains and rivers. The mill is set in very spacious grounds and has a nice pool well heated by the sun. Inside was very clean and bedrooms are a good size. BBQ and covered sitting area were conveniently placed and we ate outside every day.
Ideally located to visit beautiful Lucca and Florence is easily accessed by motorway. Coreglia is a very pretty village with good restaurants and friendly residents.
Our host, Paola really made our trip - she is so kind and generous. Our first night was made really special by her making us pizza (honestly the best of the holiday!) and she kindly shared produce from her amazing garden including honey, eggs and salad. She made a real effort so we could enjoy our holiday so we would like to say a big thank you to her (& Danni for her helpful translation). Hope to visit again.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Jun 2023
Pure tranquility with the constant burble of the trout stream. The house is quite someway up a mountain, down a dirt track and in a valley - not for the faint hearted. Pool relies on sun to heat and the temperature was still quite fresh in June. Great location for access to Florence, Pisa, Chianti wine region, and host of beautiful hilltop towns and villages. Only complaint is that the towels are not adult body sized for drying off after the shower so advise you to take own bath towels. Ideal for our dogs.

Wir sind nun schon ein paar Tage zurück in Deutschland. Doch diesen Urlaub werden wir nicht vergessen.
Alles war wie im Inserat beschrieben oder vielleicht sogar noch ein bisschen besser. Denn wenn man erstmal dort ist lernt man diesen Ort sehr zu schätzen. Ja die Anreise ist ein wenig holprig aber das stört nicht weiter. Am Haus angekommen begrüßten uns Paola und ihr Mann, zwei wirklich herzensgute Menschen. Die Beiden wohnen direkt nebenan aber stören niemals die Privatsphäre. Wenn man jedoch etwas braucht sind sie zur Stelle. Man fühlte sich gleich wie Freunde und nicht wie Gäste. Das Grundstück würden wir eher als Anwesen beschreiben denn es ist riesig und sehr ruhig in den Wald eingebettet. Das einzige was man dort hört sind Vögel und den Bach der mit direktem Zugang am Grundstück vorbei fließt. Die Mühle ist wunderschön und gut ausgestattet. Ja hier und da knackt der Boden aber das ist genau das was man von einem Gebäude von 1600 erwartet. Im Haus ist es immer schön kühl sodass man angenehm schlafen kann. Der Pool ist größer als es auf den Bildern aussieht. Perfekt war das er nicht zu tief ist. Unsere 8-Jährige konnte darin stehen. Jeden Abend verbrachten wir unsere Zeit auf der sehr gemütlichen Terrasse bis zum Anbruch der Dunkelheit. dann ging es auf die Wiese um die unzähligen Glühwürmchen zu sehen. Dieses Schauspiel konnten wir uns jeden Abend ansehen und es wurde nicht weniger faszinierend. Man kann viel erleben in der Umgebung jedoch ist dies immer mit ein wenig Fahrtzeit verbunden. Es wurde uns nie langweilig. Restaurants und Supermärkte sind in der Gegend genügend vorhanden sodass es einem an nichts fehlt. Paola verwöhnte uns mit Pizza am Anreisetag und zwischendurch mit Kirschen und anderen Geschenken. Danke dafür !!!
Ich könnte noch soviel schreiben aber das würde vermutlich den Rahmen sprengen.
Fazit: Die Erwachsenen waren glücklich, die Kleine war glücklich und der Hund war glücklich, denn auf dem eingezäunten Grundstück konnte er sich frei bewegen.
Das schönste Ferienhaus und die beste Vermieterin die wir jemals hatten.
DANKE für Alles und bis zum nächsten Mal.!!!!
Liebe Grüße
Marcel, Sabrina, Katelynn und Koba
