Description

This old farmhouse, “Antico Casale”, dates back to the 16th century and is testimony of the wealth of the silk merchants who gave fame to Lucca throughout Europe. Rebuilt during the years, these holiday apartments near Lucca have recently been restored to its origins owing to the hard work of the owner. The farmhouse consists in elegantly decorated apartments, with antiques, fireplaces and the beautiful grey Matraia stone quarried nearby. All the apartments are bright and enjoy a lovely panorama.
Situated on the hills of Lucca, among olive groves, the farmhouse has a beautiful view and is bathed in sunshine all year round with a refreshing breeze during the summer. One can also enjoy a spectacular view from the salty water pool which is located at the edge of the property.
The position of these Tuscany vacation rentals is ideal for visiting art centres such as Lucca (at 15 min.), Pisa (at 40 min.) and Florence (at 50 min.) or the nearby beaches of Versilia. Very near are the famous historic Villas and gardens of Lucca, open for visits throughout most of the year, and old churches and farms, where one can taste local products. It is also possible to follow the famous Wine Trails, “Strade del Vino”, tracking the local wine production of the area, while nature lovers can go for long walks through woods, vineyards and olive groves.
