Tour of our beautiful untouched village in Tuscany Italy.
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
A tour of the village where we bought our Italian villa to renovate. The village is almost untouched and filled with hidden passageways and paths, and full of surprises. This was filmed on the 27th of June 2020.

For a young child, this is an Aladdin's cave, memories will never be forgot.
Spent 1980-86 in Gaeta Italy (age 10-16) travelled all over the place while there, Tuscany is beautiful. The treasure hunter in me is going crazy looking at all those old ruins, I remember my dad diggin Roman coins by the handfuls when we lived there.

HI Metal, there is history everywhere you look in Italy, and so much of it is untouched! Maybe I should get a metal detector!

Let me add that in medieval villages (I live in one too) the slopes on the passageways were built with stones buried sideways that functioned as steps. Hard to describe. The lumpy bumpy way the stones were laid was to ensure good foot grabbing for people and to make the passageways easier for animals to manage, to get them to and from the cantinas (under the volte/archways). It is clear that over the years, Guinadi residents have paved over those ancient steps to make the sloping walkaways which are MUCH easier to traverse.

Welcome to Guinadi ! My family has been here since, I don't know but a lot of time ! We have two houses and one was in the same state as yours (with the " chestnut room ") with no first floor, my parents had it renovated and know it's very beautiful. We live under the vault (19:05) at the end of it. We'll be here by the very end of July (like all the others), maybe we'll meet ! Oh and if you don't know what to do about the damigiane (the wine containers) we would like to take some ! So happy to see people like you renovating and taking care of those old houses. :)

I was born in London but my parents emigrated to Canada when I was a small child, a few years after WWII. Maybe the house this KZreadr is renovating (he won't provide his name haha) was at one time part of your family property. The extensive cantinas indicate a lucrative agricultural income for that previous home owner, not to mention the prestigious loggia with columns, high ceilings, end-of-via position, and other architectural artifacts. Maybe you can research it more and find out. It would add to the existing richness of your family's history don't you think?

Thank you for a wonderful tour of the village! Walking around the villages near my house is one of my favorite hobbies! I'm waiting on someone down in Rome to process my petition for a reciprocal amateur radio license. Once that arrives I will be able to enjoy another hobby. Until then I can't get enough of wandering around and looking at homes that were built in the 13th, 14th, and 15th centuries! The locals are not overly impressed with the age, but it is very impressive to me. It's great that Italy has public services (water, sewer, gas, electric) in localities with so few residents. I saw a couple of post boxes on people's homes, and wondered about home mail service. Where I live I have only seen 1 letter carrier come to the street 1 time. The post office is only open for two or three hours each day. I'm always at work, so I've never seen it open. I won't go on and on. Again, thank you for the tour. It's great to see your village with sunshine. Have a wonderful day. David

Im new to your site. Trying to catch up on all your videos. What a lovely place. I absolutely enjoyed the walk. Its funny Im from the states, born here anyway, and my grandparents came here as children just after WW1 from the UK. They are from Yorkshire, mostly York and my grandmothers family are Scottish mostly from inverness and isle of sky. Still have lots of family there and was so fascinated growing up listening to my grandmother tell me stories of back home. So just after 911 I sold up and moved to the UK for 7yrs.My mother fell ill and had to move back to the states to care for her. I use to visit France a lot and traveled all over the UK reconnecting with family and such. I always wanted to go to Italy and never made it. Your really giving me that itch again to see Italy. So enjoying your videos. I love how you really find the beauty and value in the history, the village and the architecture. Its how I felt when I moved to the UK. ; )

That was a lovely tour, especially for those who have never been to Italy before, nor seen an ancient stone village in Comune di Pontremoli. The hillside villages of Lunigiana are special indeed. But let me say that Guinadi is not a small village by a long shot. It's a good size village and is well known for the community spirit, and activity there. It has a couple of restaurants, a community center, a bar and it used to have a small post office. But a few years ago, a lot of our village post offices were closed. At any rate, this is a thriving medieval village and a wonderful place to own a home. Well done! :-)

Grondola is a lovely village. Because it's built on a ridge, it is always so much cooler there in the summer that in places below. I live oly about 450 m. altitude in the hills of Comune di Tresana. But in the summer, my borgo is always about 5 to 10 degrees Celsius cooler than in the Magra river valley below. And in the winter, it's more temperate here. Our borgo faces a valley where much food and fruit is grown. It's a microclimate up here and very fertile. I think it would be much colder in Grondola in the winter.

Hello, beautiful lady how are you doing today?.....
All these terraces would look so beautiful gardened up.

Glad you enjoyed it
I only discovered your channel last week and have been slowly making my way through your journey. This video has given me much food for thought about doing something similar to what you have achieved here.
So beautiful. I do hope this ancient village will be preserved and never altered too much. It goes to show that the built environment can be sympathetic to the surrounding areas. While watching I felt an appreciation for the organic nature of the stone buildings and tunnels, that are very sympathetically a part of the natural landscape. It is indeed idyllic.

Hi Carole, I am glad you liked it, There will never be too much change here, because the area is not worth enough money for people to invest a lot, and so it is preserved!

How stunning! You’re very fortunate to live in Europe, to have so many options! I’m in Western Aus, and nothing is as beautiful, historical and culturally as this! I’m enjoying your videos and can’t wait to see the end result! 🌺🦋🍃😊
