Inside Lucca's ancient walls, this gorgeous apartment is the epitome of romance. Hand-painted wallpaper, sparking chandeliers, white-washed wooden ceilings – every nook and cranny oozes charm and Italian character. We don't know what we love more – the chic living area ideal for kicking back with a glass of Italy's best wine or the sumptuous bedroom that's just the ticket after an adventure-packed day exploring Tuscany. And speaking of adventures, you'll have plenty waiting for you on your doorstep. Just off Via della Rosa, this apartment is mere steps from the city's most famous medieval churches (including Chiesa della Rosa), the Roman Ruins, and Piazza San Giovanni. Delicious restaurants, laid-back bars, and independent boutiques are all within walking distance, so this is the best spot to see what Lucca has to offer.
