Description from the manager
Of our many Tuscany villas for rent, this one in Lucca stands out as being particularly charming. Hedged by cypresses and furnished in richly detailed country décor, this Tuscany villa accommodation offers more than just a place to sleep: it's an authentic cultural environment. Whether you're staying at home to enjoy the sprawling yard and private pool, or out playing at the beach and exploring medieval towns... we think this villa rental in Tuscany offers a wonderful experience all around.
[5,000 m2] This villa is located on the plain of Viareggio, close to the coast, and is situated within a large and well maintained, completely... fenced garden. A high green hedge surrounds the garden, creating lots of privacy. In the garden is a large swimming pool [12m x 6m, 1.5-2.5m deep] which also incorporates a small children's pool for little ones as well as sun lounges and umbrellas. There is also a large covered patio with dining table and chairs, a barbecue, and a wood oven. The manager of the property lives in an independent annex on the property, along with her adult children. Occasionally they will also use the pool. A laundry room with a washing machine and a dryer is available for use.
[360 m2]
Ground Floor: Entering on the ground floor, you will find a large, beautifully decorated living room with a fireplace, satellite TV, CD and DVD player, and a half-circle sofa. A dining room has a table with bench-seating for about six people. The kitchen, which has another dining table for four, is well equipped with a cook-top, oven, dishwasher, and microwave. This floor also has one guest WC.
First Floor: Upstairs there are a total of four bedrooms. There are two bedrooms with 160 cm queen-size beds, air conditioning and their own en suite bathrooms with sink, toilet, and shower. The third bedroom has a 160 cm queen-size bed that can be split into two single beds upon request. The fourth bedroom has a bunk bed suitable for two children. The third and fourth rooms share a bathroom with a sink, toilet, and hydro-massage tub. There is also a laundry room with a washing machine and dryer.
This villa is located near the village of Piano di Mommio, where you can find a grocery shop, pharmacy, bank, and post office. Restaurants and trattorias are also found nearby. The villa is also very close to Viareggio, the famous beach town of Versilia. In Viareggio a long promenade stretches alongside the beach, where there are bars, restaurants, and many shops. Just a short drive away is the walled city of Lucca. This jewel is worth enjoying simply for its medieval charm, but there are also a number of interesting sights to visit, as well as a great antique market held on the third Sunday of each month. The Duomo di San Martino and the Church of San Michele in Foro are both gorgeous examples of period architecture, while the Casa di Puccini, where the composer was born, has been transformed into a small museum in his honor. You can also climb the 130 foot Torre Guinigi, but on the other hand viewing the tree-topped tower from below might be just as enjoyable… and a lot less work!

Lack of air conditioning in two bedrooms. One person had to sleep in a room without it, and the second floor was stifling without it. The washer-dryer did not work properly.
It was definitely beautiful, and local restaurants were easily accessible.
The villa itself is lovely and charming. Spacious, nice open grounds.
It is located near an industrial park. Also, the owner's cottage and the villa share the same driveway entrance. She and her daughter drive right by the villa and pool area on the way to their cottage. We had expected to have absolute privacy.
