You can almost hear the swish of satin gowns and lutes playing as you walk around this traditional Tuscan home. Housed in a farmhouse villa that dates back to the 15th century, there’s an air of seductive, Casanova–like charm that makes you feel like you’ve stepped back in time. Stone walls and floors, beamed ceilings, candelabras, elegant drapes and dark furniture create a warm, intimate atmosphere with additional decorative delights hidden behind elaborate iron gates. To add to the romance, there’s an indoor hot tub, complete with a candle chandelier. After a relaxing soak, head out to the garden for an aperitivo at sunset before strolling down to the plant-framed pergola where a dining table and barbecue invite intimate alfresco meals. When it’s time for bed, lay back and watch the stars twinkle above you through the skylight, or watch the moon above the stunning aqueduct from the large window. With Lucca within easy reach by car in under five minutes, or on foot in twenty, this is the perfect base to experience Tuscany in true, romantic fashion.

There’s a buzzy nightlife scene centred around cool enotecas and craft beer bars. On Via Fillungo, you’ll find some of Lucca’s finest boutiques, with high-end...
