The park is enriched by the presence of lemons, oranges, lavender, aromatic herbs and an infinity of flowers with unique colours. After entering the property you come to a convenient parking area located in the immediate vicinity of the villa; from here you will be welcomed by wonderful centuries-old cypresses as well as olive, cherry, pear and medlar trees. The park, comparable in its characteristics to a botanical garden, contains various areas dedicated to relaxation such as the wisteria-covered pergola with the outdoor dining area. Finally, the swimming pool with a breathtaking view of Lucca, offering a unique atmosphere of relaxation and beauty. Please notice that photos are taken in spring, therefore flower blossoming, and the colours of the gardens' grass could be different at the moment of your arrival at the villa.

Swimming Pool:

The rectangular swimming pool, 50 metres from the property, measures 6 x 14 m with the depth varying from 1.20 to 1.80 m. Lined in sand color PVC, it has salt purification, a solar shower and a ladder for access to the water. The sunbathing area on the green lawn is equipped with comfortable sunbeds, deckchairs and director's chairs, all shaded by umbrellas to provide unique moments of maximum relaxation, surrounded by the unique panorama. The swimming pool is open from the last Saturday in April to the first Saturday in October.

Location and distances


The property is only 10 km from wonderful Lucca, an exceptional tourist destination: the town can be easily visited on foot or by bicycle, thanks to its small size and the extensive pedestrian area in the centre. There are many places to visit, including the town walls that are undoubtedly worth a mention, ideal for strolling in every season, Piazza Anfiteatro, famous for its elliptical shape, and the suggestive Torre Guinigi crowned by an ancient holm oak. In the surrounding area are many places of artistic and naturalistic importance: the Garfagnana, the plain of Lucca and the Serchio valley. For those wishing to combine the beauty of the landscape with pleasant days by the sea, just a few kilometres away is the Versilia coast with its renowned resorts: Viareggio, Forte dei Marmi and Marina di Pietrasanta. The property is also a good starting point for visiting the renowned Cinque Terre and beautiful Portofino.
