3 Bed 4 Bath Private Villa, Heated Pool, Spa, Firepit, BBQs, Pizza Oven, Garden

Detached Villa, light and airy, elegantly furnished, stylish, spacious in private enclosed gardens, parking within the grounds for several cars—smart TVs, Wifi 50 Mbps.
Complimentary wine and Prosecco on arrival. Hampers on request.
The modern kitchen on the ground floor is equipped with everything you need to prepare a fabulous Italian feast. Off the kitchen through the patio doors, dine on the shaded terrace with a sizeable black granite table overlooking the garden.
The heated private pool, measuring 9.5 x 4 x 1.5m, is paved with travertine and decking. The hot tub, featuring 76 jets, has seating for five and includes two chaise longues. The outdoor kitchen features gas and wood-fired BBQs, with wood provided, a pizza oven, a fridge, a sink and workstation, and a bar with stools, creating a friendly poolside area for grilling, making pizza and cocktails. The loggia also offers shaded dining in the garden. The fire pit features comfortable seating, perfect for enjoying cosy evenings while watching the stars. Beautiful lawns surround all this, and beyond are olive terraces and forest.
Inside the villa are three bedrooms, each with a balcony offering lovely views, very comfortable beds, cool memory foam mattresses, beautiful white linen, and tasteful furniture carefully chosen to give each room individuality and space. White Christy's bath towels and spa bath robes are provided, and four bathrooms 2 are en-suite, all with quality fittings, Carrara marble tiles and heated towel rails. The sitting room is comfortably furnished with a huge log fire and glass door (logs provided). There is a sofa bed in the sitting room and a shower room next door. 50-inch Smart TV, Wifi in all rooms, garden and pool area.
The villa is ideally situated on the edge of a medieval village at the foothills of the Apennines, an unspoiled part of Italy, with nearby destinations including Pisa, Lucca, Florence, and beaches such as Lerici and the Cinque Terre, with the five famous fishing villages, all within easy driving distance. You can catch the boat from Lerici or La Spezia to the Cinque Terre; boat hopping is a popular way to see the Cinque Terre. If you prefer to take the train, you can reach all these places from Villafranca, 4km from the property.
The area is a paradise for country lovers; at dawn and dusk, it is possible to see the occasional deer and even wild boar. Watch the eagles and other rare birds as they soar above the hills and down the valleys. There is plenty of walking immediately on the doorstep, and mountaintop meadows are abundant with flowers heavy with perfume. The region is scattered with castles steeped in history; you will enjoy the best of Tuscany, the beautiful landscapes, many local restaurants, good food and a warm Italian welcome.
Chef available for Classic Tuscan dishes or BBQ, Pizza, your choice. Food and wine hampers on request.

Perfect house in beautiful scenery

A fantastic villa with all the amenities you could need for your stay and great follow-up from Bill and Lynn. The garden area is perfect for a stay at the pool during the day and for evenings by the outdoor BBQ area for dinner.

Excellent

We had the pleasure of staying at this fantastic villa a few years ago, and I mustadmit that we were a bit worried it wouldn’t live up to our cherished memories.However, I’m thrilled to say that we were not disappointed at all!The villa was spotless and beautifully presented, just as we remembered. Everydetail was thoughtfully curated, making it feel both luxurious and welcoming.One of our favourite features was the outdoor kitchen—it was such a joy to cookand dine al fresco while soaking in the stunning surroundings.And let me tell you about the bird song! We’ve never experienced anything likeit. Bill, explained that it’s the symphony of song performed by birds looking forlove, and it’s the same every spring. For us city dwellers, it was simplyunbelievable. It added a magical touch to our stay, making our mornings evenmore special.Overall, Villa Ariola exceeded our expectations and rekindled our love for theplace. We can’t wait to return and create more beautiful memories! Highlyrecommend

Home from home in the beautiful Italian countryside

We had the most wonderful stay at Bill at Lynn’s beautiful home. We were made to feel incredibly welcome, like we were part of the family, from the first communication to the moment we left. They couldn’t have been more helpful or accommodating if they tried - from finding vegan cake shops in Italy (no easy feat) to making dinner reservations - nothing was ever too much trouble. The house and garden are pristine. The kitchen and outdoor kitchen fully stocked and the bed linen was beautifully soft and smelt incredible. We loved the pool, making outdoor pizzas and dinners on the terrace. We couldn’t recommend this enough and we would love to visit again.

Luxurious bolthole in Tuscany

This house has everything you need. The heated pool, high tech hot tub, fire pit seating area, the out door kitchen, air con…. We use the outdoor pizza oven lots! On my request Lynn and Bill made sure we had pizza dough in the fridge when we arrived and we used it all week - we really got the nack and the pizzas were lovely and crisp! Nothing is in walking distance so you have to drive but that’s okay - we organised day trips to Lucca (Marikas horse and cart ride is great), Pisa (we literally stopped for 40 mins on our way back from Lucca to see the leaning tower), cinque terre - we took the ferry which was fine but if we were to do it again I would splash out on a private boat tour (the ferry gets crowded) We also did a local bike tour (electric bikes! - you need them on those Tuscan hills) we thoroughly enjoyed this I must make a special mention for the hosts, they were there to greet us on arrival with plenty friendly advise and instructions on how to use everything to get the most out of our stay. We have stayed in a few private holiday homes and I have never contacted the host but Lynne was so friendly and wanted to help - they organised somewhere for us to watch the Euro final, they recommended and reserved restaurants and even sent info on things they thought we might like in the area Thanks Lynne and Bill! PS the wine at the villa is delicious!!

Perfect location for a retreat

The villa was a beautiful retreat in a hamlet at the top of a hill surrounded by forest. The villa was well looked after and very clean attention to detail on amenities was very good everything was provided a welcome basket to tide you over for a couple of days till you went shopping. The owners Lynn and Bill were very helpful and informative nothing was too much trouble for them, if you needed help with places to visit or restaurants they could help and book them for you. The local village had all the amenities you needed. Any problems Bill and Lynn would be there to sort for you. If the day was a bit cool you could always use the hot tub instead of the pool. Amazing villa. Thank you Lynn and Bill for making our holiday perfect and being so friendly best villa we have stayed in and Alec is even considering looking into booking for next year, Now that's a first

Lynn and Bill, our hosts, exceeded all our expectations. They were proactive, helpful, and extremely tuned to our needs. They make us feel at home. The house is beautiful. It’s secluded and peaceful, which is not trivial. Because it’s about 500 meters above see level, the temperature there is much nicer than most of Italy during the summer months. The house is well-equipped and can easily accommodate large groups. The area is beautiful, with many small villages to explore. Highly recommended!

5 star Villa Ariola

We have just returned from a fabulous family holiday in Villa Ariola. The villa is set in an extremely tranquil location and is an ideal spot to unwind and relax. It is an upgraded traditional rustic style Villa with all mod cons. It is very well appointed with everything a family would need. The beautiful outdoor space has something for everyone and is the ideal spot to either chill by the pool through the day, take advantage of the fabulous bbq area, Pizza oven and bar or chill with a drink in the evening watching the stunning night sky that is visible in this hilltop location with minimal light pollution. The Villa is perfectly located to enable exploring Tuscany's many attractions. We were able to visit Florence, Pisa, La Spezia, Sarzana, the Cinque Terre and the stunning local villages of Bagnone and Malgrate. Lynn and Bill are fabulous hosts, nothing was too much trouble and they genuinely go the extra mile to ensure the perfect holiday. We dined in several of the restaurants they had recommended, and kindly booked for us, in the beautiful coastal locations of Porto Venere, Lerici and inland in Filetto and Bagnone. They were all excellent suggestions and the food was fabulous in all of the restaurants. In addition to the excellent restaurant food we were able to enjoy produce from Bill and Lynn's vegetable garden not to mention Bill's delicious home made jam. They also provided an excellent food hamper upon our arrival with everything we needed to get settled in including some excellent wine! In conclusion, a delightful Villa for those wishing to completely relax and get away from it all but still be in a location that enables exploring all Tuscany's numerous attractions.

Bill and Lynn were wonderful hosts, and the house was perfect for us with lovely rooms, cool living room, large kitchen and fabulous outdoor space. Inside it has absolutely everything you could need and more. We had planned some day trips and meals out, but apart from a few mornings to local villages we didn't really leave!

Fantastic Tuscan Family Holiday

We spent 2 weeks at Villa Ariola, and had such a great time. The villa was lovely and clean - with Bill and Lynn going to extra mile to ensure that it was COVID-19 safe. The kitchen had everything you could need and the outdoor kitchen was so useful for the kids to get drinks without having to go into the Villa. The pizza oven and BBQ were great to use and was making pizza from scratch an enjoyable activity for all the family. The whole villa is spacious, the addition of having a washing machine came in really handy with a messy 4 yr old too. The pool was in use from morning till night, and the hot tub a great place to relax at night. We chose Villa Ariola so that we could get away during the pandemic and feel safe and we certainly got that. Villafranca was close by for shopping and it was easy to get to Lucca and the Cinque Terre to explore a little more of Italy. Bill and Lynn were really helpful hosts, suggesting and booking us our restaurants which both were fantastic.

Fabulous week at Villa Ariola

We can't praise Villa Ariola highly enough - we spent a fantastic week relaxing up in the mountains of Tuscany. The villa is really a home from home, as soon as we arrived we felt welcome and relaxed. The village is very peaceful, we spent long days lazing in and by the pool, with only the sounds of the local wildlife to be heard. Lynn was wonderful to deal with, communication was open and frequent right from when we made our booking and nothing was too much trouble. It was lovely to meet her at the property on our arrival. The villa is well equipped and was spotlessly clean. The welcome pack of food is very generous and provides most of the things you'll need for the first couple of days of your stay. The bathrobes were a welcome addition for using the hot tub (another great feature of the villa!) as later in the season it can be a little chilly in the evening (relatively speaking , 30+ degrees in the daytime and probably 20 in the evenings!) We loved our time at Villa Ariola, it was a real opportunity for total relaxation and we didn't want to leave, either during or at the end of our stay! We will certainly be back. Thank you so much Lynn and Bill for sharing your lovely house!

Great place for a group

This place is a great summerhouse for a group of people. With 3 bedrooms we where 6 people there easily. The pool is nice and clean. And works perfectly to cool down in the day, and is slightly hot in the evening. The hot tub is nice and hot, and easliy fits three adults. The hosts/owners are nice, and easy to contact. They have made a guide for anything in the house, and suggestions for the local area. Also recommends to take the walk down to the waterfall, although the return trip is up 260m in height

Very spacious and clean property. Great outdoor area with a luxurious feel and many different seating areas and shade. Large kitchen with everything you need.

Excellent stay

Superhost and super house. Everything you need for a perfect holiday. From the private chef you can book to the local wine that Lynn arranged. Everything well organized. At arrival even a full basket with groceries. Would recommend this villa to anyone!

Beautiful villa in Tuscany

Villa Ariola was absolutely amazing. We stayed for 4 nights and really enjoyed our stay. Everything was perfect. Owners Lynn and Bill were very friendly and helpful and they really made us feel welcome. Thank you Lynn and Bill! We couldn't be more satisfied with this wonderful villa and hopefully we have a change to come back again someday. Highly recommended!

Fabulous week at Villa Ariola

A wonderful week at Villa Ariola! We were well looked after by Lynn and Bill who were on hand for great tips of where to go, where to shop and appeared in an instant for minor house issues, they were lovely and made our stay very personal. The villa itself is wonderful especially the outdoor kitchen area and pool. The wood fired pizza oven was everything we hoped for and had some great meals roasting everything in the oven. The house is lovely, great air con in the bedrooms and kitchen well equipped. It was so hot the week we visited that we didn’t venture far but found the location more remote than other Tuscan areas we have visited in the past but given the heat it didn’t matter, we just maxed out on the villa facilities. We will most definitely consider coming back again in the future and highly recommend.

The perfect Tuscan hideaway

We had the most wonderful stay at Villa Ariola. It was truly the most beautiful place we’ve ever stayed. All of the facilities are spotless, well-looked after and comfortable. The location is stunning, a perfect “Tuscan hideaway”! The village of Irola Di Sopra is beautifully quaint whilst the surrounding mountain forests provide a beautiful backdrop to the garden. We were lucky to see wild boar and deer at dusk, and the night time display of fireflies was mesmerising. Even before we arrived, property owners Lynn and Bill could have not been more helpful and friendly. The instructions to the property are perfectly clear and it’s an easy drive from Pisa airport. The villa is immaculate and has everything you could ever need during the stay; all manner of cooking utensils and crockery, games, DVDs etc. The instructions to work/operate the kitchen and amazing outdoor facilities are very clear and the detailed guest book provides all the useful information you could need about the local area. We could barely tear ourselves away from the poolside, but when we did we found plenty of things to do and places to see, all within an hours drive of the villa. We can’t recommend Villa Ariola enough. Thank you Lynn and Bill for a perfect stay.

Bella Villa Ariola

The pictures don't lie, this is a beautifully presented Villa which has been finished to a high standard. We enjoyed our stay and using this as our base were able to explore as far as Florence & Pisa quite easily. Lucca was also well worth a visit if you want to get away from the crowds. Returning to the comforts of Villa Ariola in the evening never disappointed.
