What could be more magical than watching the Tuscan sunset while sipping a glass of white wine? How about a private hot tub on your very own terrace, offering sweeping views of Lucca? Trust us – this penthouse apartment is as spectacular as it sounds. You'll no doubt spend most of your time in the sun-drenched outside space, overlooking the historic town walls. Whether you're snoozing in the afternoon rays, dining alfresco on freshly made pasta or bubbling the night away in the hot tub, it's the perfect setting to enjoy an Italian getaway. That said, the interior is equally impressive. It's got all the charm and character you'd expect for a home in the heart of town – picture original Italian antiques, sumptuous double beds and fine art hanging on every wall. Spend laid-back evenings tickling the ivories in the living area, nibble on antipasto in the sleek kitchen, and relax sore muscles in the Jacuzzi-style bath after a long day on your feet. You also can't beat the location. A myriad of restaurants, bars and old-world churches are within walking distance, while Lucca's famous ancient walls are just 200 metres away. This is the ideal spot to discover the sights and sounds of picturesque Tuscany.
