This historic villa and its sprawling grounds look out over the rolling Tuscan hills. In fact, the villa was once owned by a noble family from Lucca, and its opulent history is still evident in the home's period features. Admire the original beamed ceilings on the ground floor, and unwind in the elegant living room in front of the fireplace. Upstairs, antique furnishings adorn the bedrooms, and windows look out over the beautiful gardens. We think the lovely outdoor space is where you'll spend most of your time, either relaxing with a drink under the shade of the olive trees or swimming in the pool. As evening approaches, light the candles and enjoy a barbecue with a glass of local wine. The tree-lined roads surrounding the property are the perfect place for a morning run, and it's only a ten-minute stroll to the local village, where you can enjoy a meal in the medieval square. There's so much more to explore a short drive away, too – venture to the coast and relax on the beach at Viareggio (a twenty-two-minute ride), or wander the Renaissance-era city walls of Lucca, a thirty-minute drive away.
