This rustic farmhouse is one of four holiday homes set within an authentic Tuscan working farm. Nestled in the hills, it's surrounded by countryside views over the valley of Lucca that you can enjoy from the shared swimming pool, the private terrace, and even the bedroom windows. There's plenty of room for the whole family, with a bathroom on each of the three floors and lots of outdoor space. Fire up the barbecue or the pizza oven for shared meals under the shaded terrace, or take your pick of traditional Tuscan trattorias and restaurants in Ponte a Moriano or Lucca – both are just a twenty-minute drive away.

Home truths

  • This farmhouse is one of four holiday homes for rent in this farm. If there are other guests in these homes, you'll be sharing the swimming pool with them.

  • The swimming pool isn't fenced. If you're bringing little ones, they'll need to be supervised at all times. It's also only available for use between 4th May and 28th September.

  • Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. There's free parking, but it's worth noting that the driveway is quite steep.

  • The traditional decor here might not be to everyone's taste. It feels a little dated in parts.

  • One well-behaved dog is welcome to accompany you during your stay.
