Tucked into a peaceful quarter of Orentano, this villa is built for slow days. The walled garden – planted with olive and fruit trees and gated for privacy – sets the pace, with a shaded pergola for long lunches and a covered dining patio for evenings that drift well past sunset. A detached stone annexe adds real flexibility, housing its own kitchen and indoor lounge a few steps from the main house. Inside, a grand archway connects the living and dining rooms, and a quiet reading nook offers an easy retreat when the afternoon heat calls for stillness.

Home truths
All three bedrooms are on the upper floor, so you'll be using the stairs regularly during your stay.
Air conditioning is only available in two of the three bedrooms and the upstairs hallway – the third bedroom has a fan instead, and the rest of the villa is not air-conditioned. Worth bearing in mind if you're visiting in the height of summer.
The annexe kitchen and main house kitchen are in two separate buildings, so if you're using the annexe for cooking you'll be stepping outside to move between spaces.
Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay.
You'll have gated private parking for up to three cars within the garden – useful if you're arriving as a group with multiple vehicles.

About Lucca
Lucca is one of Italy’s best-kept secrets. Surrounded by fortified walls, its core is a warren of pretty piazzas, traditional Tuscan trattorias, and beautifully preserved churches.
