About the home

Lovingly rebuilt to high standard with the traditional teracotta tiles and chestnut beams with all modern facilities. There are 4 bedrooms, all with electric fans, 2 doubles with private en suite bathrooms, and 2 twin rooms that can also be made into doubles. The underfloor heating is perfect for low season and open fire for cosy winter months, and all bathrooms have heated towel rails. The kitchen is well-equippped for self-catering, although we can also recommend a cook!
All bath towels and pool towels are included, we also provide hairdryers in each bedroom, & we offer WIFI for personal use. The terrace is perfect for dining al fresco with stunning views of the lush countryside & valley below. There is also a fully functional pizza oven for a family fun meal! The beautiful salt water pool is in the proximity to the Farmhouse Villa, set in lovely gardens. Perfect setting for peace, solitude, relaxing and sunbathing, but close enough to the busy ancient walled city of Lucca. Thriving with exciting shops, and history for the avid sight-seeing guests.
