They say about us…
Arrivati a Ferragosto con lei in dolce attesa, abbiamo trovato l’appartamento fresco anche senza accendere l’aria condizionata e tanto silenzio turbato solo dai grilli la notte è dagli uccellini alla mattina, che dormite! E che mangiate nei ristoranti consigliatici da Alberto!
Ci sono le colline toscane, gli uliveti dietro il podere, le vigne davanti e i tramonti che fan venire voglia di star fuori a guardarli, con un bicchiere di vino in mano o una tazza di caffè. La zona, manco a dirlo, è piena di agriturismi e case vinicole. Super comoda la vicinanza dell’autostrada per raggiungere Lucca, Firenze o anche il mare. Bello e rilassante. Non mi rimane che tornarci.
Un posto accogliente in mezzo alle colline toscane. Siamo stati ospiti durante la settimana del Lucca comics con un gruppo di 4 amici; il proprietario, gentilissimo, ci ha messo a nostro agio e ci ha dato indicazioni utili per la cena e su dove parcheggiare con praticità vicino a Lucca. L’appartamento pulito e ordinato e con un buon gusto estetico, mantenendo qualche elemento originale dalla cascina. Lo consigliamo vivamente.
Volevamo fare un weekend rilassante e in contatto con la natura; abbiamo trovato il posto giusto! La pace è totale visto che La Casina é in piena campagna e poi si può scendere nei campi dove abbiamo visti molti animali selvaggi, anche i cinghiali! Piacevole anche rilassarsi in giardino sulle sdraio.
