Tuscany-Lucca Area Villa 10

This very attractive villa in Tuscany with private pool is located in an exceptionally panoramic position among olive groves, in the hills between the medieval city of Lucca and the Versilia coast. The very well groomed garden and terraces offer the guests many lovely corners where they can sit outside and enjoy the views of the countryside.

The house was meticulously restored from what were formerly an olive mill and a barn, now connected by a large entrance hall and terrace. The result is an impressive stone-built building. Attention has been given to using exclusively traditional materials as well as to modern comforts such as the well-equipped kitchen, Wi-Fi connection, ceiling fans in every room to make this Tuscan villa comfortable even during the hottest days of summer (together with the efficient insulation of the building), and the large service room with washer and dryer available for guest use. Furthermore, the swimming pool has a salted water filter system which avoid the use of chlorine – ideal for those looking to relax by the pool area, swim and enjoy the incredible views over the valley of Lucca.

The interiors have been tastefully furnished with great care in a country yet elegant style. The structure of the villa makes it ideal for groups of friends looking to spend their holiday in Tuscany together while retaining their own privacy as the house is divided into two different areas and every bedroom has its own en-suite bathroom .

This Italian farmhouse is ideally located for those looking to relax in the countryside as well as being able to visit Tuscany and its attractions. There is a small country village 5 minute away from this beautiful farmhouse, ideal to food shops, grab an ice-cream or an International newspaper while at a short drive, clients can reach the beautiful walled city of Lucca, artsy town of Pietrasanta or the coastal resorts in Viareggio and Forte dei Marmi. Furthermore, there is an extensive list of day trips that clients can do when staying at the villa; from visiting the magnificent monuments in Florence, to enjoy some wine in one of the most renowned wineries in Tuscany or enjoying the wild and unspoiled nature in the Southern part of Tuscany, Maremma.

Absolutely fab. Everything was excellent, no problems Everything catered for and internet via wi-fi was very good. Within easy reach of Lucca, 15 or 20 minutes. Good road. o pleasant that we ate at villa every night. Bar on main road at bottom of hill excellent. Morena's meal was exceptional, pasta especially. Tremendous value and very tasty.

I brought my family (12 p) to stay  for a week to celebrate a special occasion. We also rented La Fiora (6 p) which is next door. We have been quite fortunate with travels throughout the years and have grown accustomed to expect the very best. It exceeded all our expectations. We loved every aspect of the property. It is very beautiful indeed and has been renovated with an eye to authenticity but also towards what a modern traveler looks for. The setting is almost to good to be true. You will dine on the terrace while overlooking a beautiful valley and an immaculate garden (at least for Swedish standards). The pool is great. Extra plus for being salt water pool.  The house maid was fantastic. We had a recommended chef come in to cook for us, Morena, and she also did a great job. Of all the properties I have seen in the neighbourhood this is by far the most beautiful. We have nothing but the very best to say. This property is great for family, friends and kids. Loved it!!!

We had an awesome holiday! We flew in from South Africa and met up with family from the UK.

We have had the most wonderful family holiday in this marvellous house. The views and sense of peace relaxed everyone - from grandfather to the 4 year old. Apart from the odd trip to Lucca we felt no desire to leave!

From WS - UK - in 2011-07-01
The villa far exceeded expectations; lovely to be so clsoe to the tourist hot spots! (...) We found Florence to be a fantastic city to visit, but we were happy enough to remain at villa the remainder of the week!

From EA - USA - in 2011-06-01
This was paradise in Tuscany.The Villa was very clean and comfortable. Our party of 10 loved all the little sitting areas which meant we had space to ourselves when we needed it. The pool was clean and in a lovely area to sit. The views from the house were stunning and the garden was lovely. We booked Morena for 3 meals which were excellent. Altogether we would thoroughly recommend this property to anyone. Party of 10 from Boulder (US), Calgary (Canada), Essex and Shropshire UK.

From CJ - - in 2010-05-01
This is a wonderful property in a beautiful setting. We really enjoyed our time. Our party of eight adults found that there was plenty of space for everyone, so no one felt crowded. It made a great base to explore Tuscany. I am extremely happy that we chose this property. We hired Morena to cook for us for two nights while we were there. She is a wonderful cook and great lady. The meals were superb! The villa is actually two buildings which are attached, There are two living room areas, and one kitchen. This is perfect for groups of people who don't necessarily want to do the same things at the same time, or simply want some "alone" time. It was very clean. The landscaping is outstanding. The location is exactly what we wanted. However, any renter should understand that the villa is out in the country, and can be a little challenging to find at first. I don't believe that the website does the property justice.
