Just a short drive from Lucca and within easy reach of Pisa, Florence, and the Versilia coast, this villa is perfectly placed for your Tuscan escape. When you’re not out sightseeing, it’s a peaceful spot to unwind, surrounded by vineyards, olive groves, and countryside views. There’s a private pool for lazy afternoons and a pergola-shaded terrace made for long alfresco meals. Inside, the farmhouse has everything you’ll need for a comfortable stay, including a well-equipped kitchen. When full, two will sleep in the separate annexe, which offers flexibility. Best of all, the estate produces its own wine, olive oil, and more – with tastings included, you can savour a true taste of Tuscany without leaving home.
