Spread across three floors in the hills above Lucca, this villa is built for groups who want space and ease in equal measure. The panoramic pool looks out over the rolling Tuscan hills – the kind of view that makes a long afternoon feel effortless. Below, a manicured garden wraps around an alfresco dining terrace where evenings naturally stretch out. Six bedrooms across the floors mean everyone gets room to retreat when they need it. The Duomo di San Martino and Piazza dell'Anfiteatro are both within a short drive whenever you feel the call of the city.

Home truths

  • This home is set over four floors connected by stairs, so it might not be the best option for those with reduced mobility.

  • If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair at no additional cost. You'll need to request them in advance.

  • You're on a hillside outside Lucca's centre, so a car is essential for reaching the city, restaurants, and shops. The good news is private parking is available at the villa.
