  Spectacular Beautiful Warmhearted Tuscany

  Left on 10/20/2011 for a stay in October 2011
  
  

  Villa La Cappella is spectacular. The photos can't show how wonderful the total experience of the Villa is. The location offers amazing Tuscan views as well as beautiful gardens and the serenity of being in the Tuscan countryside. The house itself is pure charm and beauty. Everyone was pleased with their room. We cooked together in the big kitchen and the long rustic tables (both inside and out) accommodated all 12 of us. The owners not only open their beautiful La Cappella to visitors but open their hearts. They are there for whatever you may need. Our family loved Lucca and the surrounding areas and felt very welcomed by the people of Lucca. We are all trying to figure out how to return to this heavenly place.

  A perfect week in Tuscany

  Left on 08/31/2011 for a stay in July 2011
  
  

  This incredible villa was the perfect Tuscan setting for our family of 13. There was more than enough space for everyone and the suites on the 3rd floor were beautiful. All of the rooms have wonderful views. We spent most of our time in the incredible kitchen and outside at one of the many seating areas and the pool. The initial drive up to the villa is intimidating as it is at the very top of the mountain, but once you have done it a few times, it becomes much less so (and you cant beat the view). With the villa only a few miles from Lucca, we drove into town almost every day. While we enjoyed many meals out, we really loved cooking in the villa. The owners were lovely and had grocery shopped for us so that there was food in the villa once we arrived. The owners have a private portion of the house, however they stayed at a location off the property while we were there. Overall, it was a very relaxing fun week. Thank you Villa La Capella!
