Our Story So Far...
Our story began in 1973 when Barry and Christine Pearson (pictured left in Florence 1970s) began renting luxury villas in Versilia, on Tuscany’s golden coast.
Today, we remain family run and managed. Our expertise has been built over a lifetime of living, working & holidaying in Italy which means we know Italy’s culture and customs intimately and well equipped to assist you with your villa rental needs.
We have visited many of the villas in our portfolio – If we haven’t visited your luxury villa of choice, we will find out the necessary information from a trusted contact on your behalf, saving you precious time.

When you are ready to book we require a deposit to secure your villa rental and the balance will be due 8 weeks prior to arrival.
Hear from our happy customers
"Your recommendation to stay near Lucca, given the age and experience mix of the party, was spot on. The villa was wonderful and Alessandro welcoming and helpful. We would happily stay there again and would definitely both recommend you and hope to rent a villa through you again."
Amanda Lee
"We had a wonderful meal in Lucca at Buca Di S. Antonio from your suggestions and also in a local trattoria near the villa suggested by Alessandro. The written directions to find the villa were clear and when one car in our party got separated, it meant that they found the villa without too much hassle. Best wishes"

We are back from an absolutely glorious week at Villa Marzio (in Villammare) - everything was more than we hoped for, Marzio runs an excellent villa, extremely comfortable and great for little kids (though we were on full alert because pool not gated) .... but Marzio was super attentive to all our needs, there is so much to do in the area, hikes, boat trips, pool amazing.We are super thrilled with how the holiday went. Many thanks indeed for organising this for us.

We arrived to a bottle of wine and a note from you - thank you so much for all of your attention to detail, planning and recommendations. I really don't think that we'd change anything about our trip. We will of course pass on your details to anyone who asks and recommend you without a second thought. Thanks again. Mike & Julie
