In the heart of Lucca, this apartment is perfectly located for sightseeing. Twenty minutes on foot is the Duomo di San Martino, while the bustling Piazza dell'Anfiteatro is walkable in ten. Factor in the nearby shops, restaurants, and cafes, and it's easy to see why we were drawn to the area. Location aside, there's a lot to love about the home, too. It's contemporary yet traditional – think original tiles, vintage furniture, and bright spaces. The modern kitchen has everything you need to rustle up meals, while the collection of comfortable bedrooms is just what's needed after a long day on your feet.

Home truths
The main bedroom with an en-suite does not have air conditioning. However, the thick walls should keep things cool during the summertime.
If you’re travelling with little ones, your host can provide a free cot and high chair – please request these when booking. You’ll have to bring your own cot linen, though.

This apartment is on the first floor of a building without a lift.
