Villa Viola Residenze Seicento

Stunning outdoor living spaces and indulging interiors make VILLA VIOLA an ideal choice for a holiday any time of year in the rolling hills of Tuscany, just a 5 mins drive away from the city centre of Lucca. Spend a stay relaxing in the gardens exploring the photogenic Colline Lucchesi region, and sampling local wines, cheeses and more from nearby shops. The property was recently restored with care and consideration, and today this historic home boasts sophisticated décor and four bedrooms with space for eight friends and family members.

The villa is set amid expansive gardens planted with rosemary, wildflowers and even vegetables. Let the scent of the herbs and Tuscan sun wash over you as you lounge by the outdoor patio or under the pergola, and as evening falls, serve aperitifs at one of the al-fresco dining areas as the barbecue heats up. After a day of sightseeing, stretch out in the woods inside the property or simply share your favourite snaps via Wi-Fi.

A recent restoration brought out the authentic character of this luxury vacation rental while giving it a modern . Cotto floors, beamed ceilings, shuttered windows and stone fireplaces give a warm, traditional look to the two sitting rooms, kitchen and formal dining room. Contemporary details such as lounge chairs, WIFI connection and even a dock station are unexpected yet playful. The fully equipped eat-in kitchen is both stylish and practical, with custom cabinets, a breakfast table and state-of-the-art appliances.
