Description The Hills of Lucca: Lucca

This traditional Tuscan home boasts a beautiful setting in the hills of Lucca. The historic city centre is just 6 kilometres away, but you’ll feel far removed from the hustle and bustle in this hilltop haven. The owner – who lives in the annex – is an art dealer who’s put his stamp on this home, with murals and artwork dotted throughout. This is a lived-in, rustic home, so it won’t suit those seeking a sleek, new-build look. We love the outside space, with its olive trees and swimming pool.

Home truths:
*This is a rustic, traditional home with some signs of wear and tear.
*The owner of this home lives in the annex, and shares the entrance gate.
*Hiring a car is essential. The approach to this home is via an unpaved road; the final 600 metres are uphill and bendy. There’s parking for up to two cars here.
*This home is spread over three floors so it may not be suitable for those with reduced mobility.
*The swimming pool is open from 1st June-1st October.
*Your host can provide a cot and high chair for little ones.
