This B&B met all expectations...set in a gorgeous location, with absolutely fantastic hosts, a very comfortable room and last but not least a feast for breakfast!! We only stayed one night but it made our very short trip extremely memorable....We loved it so much we might return for Christmas:-) If you go here you will not be disappointed.

First ..thank you Roy and Shirley for the wonderful holiday you provided us at Casa Marchi. It was absolutely wonderful and everything we ever dreamed Italy could be. The accommodation/food/service was just first class and the town/countryside and nearby towns gave us a wonderful holiday where we could relax and at the same time not be bored. The cooking lessons... More

Casa Marchi and our first meeting with Roy and Shirley were exactly what we needed to convince us that our first trip to Italy was about to become wonderful. After a previous night at another B&B which included preparing our own breakfast, and a bit of a twist when we couldn't get our car through the passageway to their upper... More

We have recently returned from a trip to Roy and Shirley in Casa Marchi, Gombereto. We decided to try the holiday rental this time and it was fantastic.

We decided to request dinner at Casa Marchi one evening and it was the best meal we had in our entire stay in Italy - 4 courses of the most amazing, fresh italian food,... More

We recently visited Casa Marchi again and had such a lovely stay that we simply had to mention it again. The hospitality we remembered came flooding in back and the weather shone and the clear mountain air came as a welcome relief after such a wet summer in London. Roy still does the cooking classes and Shirley's treatment courses are... More

Casa Marchi is a perfect oasis of calm and luxury nestled in the delightful cobbled narrow streets of the beautiful medieval Tuscan village of Gombereto in the wooded hills above Bagni Di Lucca. The views across the valley to the little hilltop villages are just georgous and the village itself so picturesque there is no need to wander far in... More
