About the home

Lucca is a beautiful Tuscan town whose historic centre is uniquely encircled by its 16th century walls - no other city in Italy or Europe has anything like it. These ancient city ramparts, 5 kms in circumference, today form a wide walkway on top of the walls, shaded by large chestnut tress where you can walk, jog or cycle.

The city is surrounded by hills which are famous for their historic villas, many of them open to the public and within cycling distance of the city. There are numerous places to sample the local wines and olive oil along the 'The roads of wine and olive oil' (Le strade del vino e del olio) that wind their way through the local countryside of vineyards and olive groves.

Travel a bit further out (half an hour from the city) and you will find yourself at the Versilia - an endless stretch of beach where you can eat wonderful seafood spaghetti in Viareggio all year round, go clubbing in some of Italy's best known nightclubs, or simply, for a six months a year, lie on the beach, go for a swim and get some sun. If you're looking for something more active, then go walking and hiking in the beautiful hills around the city - a 30 minute drive will take you further up into mountains which range up to nearly 2000 metres high. An hour's drive away and you can go skiing in Abetone from December to March.

The Tuscany / Lucca Province region

Lucca is a beautiful Tuscan town whose historic centre is uniquely encircled by its 16th century walls - no other city in Italy or Europe has anything like it.

These ancient city ramparts, 5 kms in circumference, today form a wide walkway on top of the walls, shaded by large chestnut tress where you can walk, jog or cycle.

The Lucca area

Lucca is a wealthy town with a strong sense of its traditions and independence of spirit, the city provides a diverse programme of contemporary and classical culture, that draws a more discerning tourist than Florence or Pisa. It is sufficiently off the beaten track to have kept its character and authenticity - a 'best-kept secret', yet only 30 minutes from Pisa airport.

This small, compact city of of 80,000 people means its very easy to really get to know and the best way of getting around is on foot or by bike. You will be delighted by some of Italy's finest medieval and renaissance architecture, local family-run restaurants serving typical Tuscan dishes, and being the home of Puccini you can enjoy all year music festivals, concerts and recitals. In summer the city also moves to another beat with the Lucca Summer Festival with stars such as Elton John, Moby, Anastasia descending on the city.

The all-year round programme of open-air events range from the ice rink and christmas market in December, wine tasting and food festivals for the month of September , and every month the city hosts the second largest antique market in Tuscany that takes over the streets and piazzas of the old town with furniture and bric-a-brac stalls. Combine this with the late night openings of the Contemporary Art Gallery, the nightclubs and inimitable Italian beach culture on the coast 20 minutes away, skiing one hour away and you have the ingredients for a holiday to suit all ages and tastes.
