We love this charmingly rustic apartment high in the Tuscan hills. Boasting sweeping views of the valley below and under a thirty-minute drive from Lucca, this hillside home is also within easy reach of the medieval town of Pescia, where you’ll find twisting cobbled streets, ancient churches and palaces, as well as shops, restaurants, and gelaterias. The apartment’s open-plan living and dining area welcomes you with traditional timbered ceilings, a stone fireplace and a well-equipped kitchen. This room would be perfect for hanging out with friends and family – if you can stay away from the outdoor areas, that is. With a mature garden blooming with roses and lavender, panoramic views, and a shared pool, we bet you’ll find yourselves spending most of your time out here. And while much of the outdoor space is shared with the other apartments in the building, you get a private terrace designed for alfresco meals, evening aperitivi, and much more.
