External Description :

The Villa Matraia and the “Borgo” are surrounded by lovely, well maintained open spaces, similar to those you would find in an estate belonging to a prestigious ancient palazzo or villa. The Estate has a wonderful panoramic outdoor swimming pool and patio area built on a natural terrace on the hillside, and since it faces south, the area is bathed in sunlight all d...ay long.

The Estate has been carefully renovated and restored in keeping with the rustic Tuscan style of that area and has been designed around a small square that leads to all of the apartment buildings – each one uniquely located, designed and furnished. The Villa Matraia, however, is located on one side of the Borgo and is set right in the heart of an ancient and prestigious parkland.

The Villa is a unique example of 16th Century architecture and thanks to a very careful restoration over the last few years, the Villa has been restored to its former glory and still retains its original Tuscan character and charm. The Villa’s former annexes have also been converted into several delightful farmhouse style apartments.

Since the Villa is very spacious, the Ground floor where the state rooms are, has been conserved in its original state, complete with all the antique furniture, living room with original wood fireplace and panoramic loggias (covered terraces), all of which is accessible to guests of the Estate.

The first floor of the Villa, however, has been transformed into several very spacious and luxury, panoramic apartments and the upper floors, further 7 beautifully furnished apartments.

Internal Description :

Modern Loft, on the 1st floor of the Villa, is definitely the most attractive apartment. It comprises 2 levels and can accommodate up to 4 guests.

  Under the Tuscan Sun

  Left on 09/14/2011 for a stay in July 2011
  
  

  We stayed at Matiria Estate as part of a world journey and had an amazing time. The apartment was spacious and comfortable with the modern conveniences. The pool area was our fave as it was hot. Unfortunatley the tennis court was out of order which was one of the reasons we booked. The only complaint about the apatment itself was the upstairs widows, sky lights, did not open properly so the rooms were stuffy and it made it difficult to sleep.
  Luisa in the office was amazing. She helped us find things to do in the area, made our restaurant bookings and gave us solid advice.

  Beauty in the Tuscan Hills

  The location is spectacular with views from the hills above the city of Lucca. Disappointed we did not get welcome basket, as promised. The apartment had been fully renovated recently, was bright and clean.
