Located only 6 kilometres from the centre of Lucca, Etruscan Jewel is a true countryside palace, and yet you can walk to the nearest trattoria in less than ten minutes. The estate that surrounds this regal home features typical Tuscan features like olive orchards and pine forests, which are perfect for a morning jog or peaceful stroll. The estate is shared between three similarly opulent villas, but the only thing you'll be sharing are the bikes for hire and a tennis court – there's even private access to the home's helicopter pad and chapel. Your private pool is surrounded by old stone walls, loungers, and rose hedges that will truly immerse you in a full sensory experience of the Tuscan countryside. In the spirit of rest and relaxation, cooking can be left to professional chefs who can be hired for any meals. There's no shortage of tours and wine tastings on offer locally, and we recommend that you go on at least one. After a busy day of exploring Monte Pisano and beyond, relax in the luxurious en-suite bedrooms where you can admire original frescoes and stunning antiques.

About Tuscany

Perhaps the first region to come to mind when you think of holidays in Italy, there’s no denying Tuscany’s beauty. The term “Rolling hills” could have been coined here, where grapes ripen on vines in the folds of the valleys and ancient towns crown hilltops.
