Light fills this refined Lucca apartment from generous windows, making the living and dining space feel calm and unhurried – a good place to cook something slow and eat without rushing. When the day cools, the furnished garden comes into its own, with a covered dining area strung with warm lantern light for long alfresco evenings. A private terrace sits above the rooftops for quieter moments. Piazza dell'Anfiteatro, the elliptical square built over a Roman amphitheatre, is a fifteen-minute walk, and Lucca Cathedral is eleven minutes on foot – enough history on the doorstep to fill the days easily.
