Set within lush private gardens and just beyond the ancient ramparts of Lucca, this 17th-century mansion is a memorable base for group holidays. We imagine days here will be spent drifting between alfresco breakfasts on the terrace, cooling dips in the outdoor pool and sociable evenings gathered in the lush garden. Inside, historic details dial up the regal atmosphere, while outside, you have plenty of space to unwind under the wide-open Tuscan skies. When you're ready to explore, Lucca is just five minutes away, too.
