About this property

Spacious 5 bedroom villa with private pool, full wheelchair access with lift

"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.

This is a fantastic opportunity to experience a summer holiday in one of the loveliest villages in Tuscany. Villa Corrado is set just above the medieval walled village of Castiglione. There is a view of the ancient castle from the house and garden.

There are 5 bedrooms in the newly built villa, which is perfect for families or a group of friends.

The villa has also been equipped with a lift and designed with the aim of being comfortable and accessible for wheelchair users.

Downstairs, at the ground level with stair and lift access through the internal garage, there is a large double bedroom with easy access to a bathroom with handrails, a low sink and a wheel-in shower with a seat and rails. There is also a twin room downstairs.

On the first floor there is a main door which leads into a roomy lounge with a 10 seat dining room table. For colder periods there is a cosy open wood fire. The lounge has French doors to the large balcony, which is a feature throughout the villa. The kitchen has easy access to the balcony through a French door.

Also on the first floor there is a lovely master bedroom with French doors leading to its own balcony with views over the pool and the beautiful countryside beyond. There is a double room and a single room which also has a door which goes down to the pool and solarium.

The 12 metre private swimming pool has steps and a lift hoist for people with disabilities. The outdoor pool furniture is of high quality. The pool is cleaned 2x per week (early morning).

The house is also equipped with free fast Wi-Fi, a ping pong table and a BBQ.

Castiglione has a number of bars and shops, and a restaurant all within 300 metres of the villa.

In 2012 Castiglione was voted as one of the nicest villages in Italy. The walled village is strategically situated in the spectacularly scenic area known as the Garfagnana, arguably the most beautiful part of all Tuscany. It is now officially recognised as one of 'Italy's most beautiful villages', and also renowned for it's excellence in music, with many free concerts during the year.

We can help you arrange cooking classes, a private chef, electric mountain bike tours, trekking tours, horse riding, gorge walking and caving.

We give all our guests very detailed information about the area. Our house manager has experience of helping disabled people and can provide useful advice.

Toscana is beautiful
Nice house there were as the the pictures and discription told us. The area is beautiful with all the mountains. A little challenging to drive from and around, but you get used to it. Really nice with the pool. Everything is around you, from restaurants to daily shopping. All in all a place we would consider coming back to.

We had a wonderful week
Such a lovely house and area with the nicest view. The cleaning was in top and the hosts were very sweet and welcoming. Be aware that the number of the address written in VRBO is wrong. The numbers need to be switched around. Thanks for a wonderful stay. We might come back another time. All the best and greetings from Family Andersen

About the host

Hosted by Molly McKean

Host profile image
Beginning in 1988, Friends of Tuscany are a family run business providing accommodation, activities and specialised information about the Garfagnana region of northern Tuscany, Southern Tuscany and Umbria.

We know all the owners personally and we have first hand knowledge of the area.
Local information – cafes, restaurants, shopping, festivals, excursions and activities.

We work hard to match you with accommodation and the local amenities to suit your specific needs. All the houses and owners are known personally to us and our knowledge of the area comes from first-hand experience of spending time there ourselves over a 31 year period.

Why they chose this property

This property is excellently situated to enjoy what Tuscany has to offer. It is only 1.5 hours from Pisa, 50 minutes from Lucca, 2 hours from Florence, 2 hours from Cinque Terre, 50 minutes from the nearest beach.

The house is in a private position but still in a village which means you can walk home after a meal.

The views from the house are fabulous.
