Villa with Private Pool on the Lucca Hills in S. Andrea di Compito
Villa Matilde is a superb farmhouse in the medieval hamlet of S. Andrea di Compito, south of Lucca. With its stone facades set amid cypress trees, colourful gardens, and majestic vistas, the villa evokes the quintessential character of antique Tuscany. Beautifully restored and renovated interiors provide a comfortable vacation home infused with rustic charm, lovely living and dining areas both in the main villa and in the adjacent hayloft.
Built gracefully into the hills at just 10 mins from Lucca, the villa's intimate terraces and gardens beckon you into the Tuscan sun. Plunge into the swimming pool and relax on lounge chairs beneath the blue sky at the top of the hill. Withdraw into the shaded gazebo for cool drinks and delectable lunches from the well-appointed indoor kitchen. In the evening, gather in the veranda adjoining the villa's dining room, relishing local wine and alfresco dinners as the sun sets over Lucca just over the antique bell tower in the garden which dates back to 1200s.
French doors imbue the home's interiors with gentle summer breezes and exquisite light. The décor is a lovely mélange of period pieces and modern artwork, forming an ambiance at once elegant and welcoming. Heating and air conditioning keep you comfortable in all seasons.
In the main house, the master bedroom features a double large size bed and a second bedroom with a double French size bed along with two bathrooms. A fully equipped kitchen, a living room and a dining room completes the main house. The adjacent hayloft features a veranda/living room with grand glass doors, another dining room, a laundry room with washing machine and clothes dryer, a bathroom and upstairs panoramic bedroom with glass all around with a large double bed.
Villa Matilde is just a two-minute walk into the ancient hamlet of S. Andrea di Compito known for its architectural beauty and for the antique gardens hosting majestic Japanese Camellia trees brought in the gardens of the local villas in the 18th century directly from Asia. Two restaurants are located close by (walking distance) as well as a baker and a grocery store selling local food.

Perfect stay!
The house was beautiful! It was somehow better than the photos. It was perfect for three couples and a great location to explore Tuscany. The suggestions for a wine tour and a private chef were outstanding and really made for a magical trip.

The best Italian property we’ve had the pleasure of staying in. A beautiful place in a beautiful location with all the amenities you could need. The owners went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. We travelled with a baby and a toddler and they would have been happy to never leave the gorgeous swimming pool! Easy to get to Lucca and Pisa with a car and only an hour from Florence.

Thank you so much
As an adult family of 6 we have enjoyed a lovely 10 days holiday in Villa Matilde.
We love visited Lucca, FLorence, Viareggio and a local vineyard but also enjoyed great relaxing days by the pool!
It is also a great idea to just walk around the immediate village and see the beautiful views.
It's a shame that the Church wasn't open when we went.

AMAZING!
Amazing villa in a very beautiful and quiet countryside. We had a great time at the pool and in the surrounding area - definitly worth a stay, everything was available as advertised and communication with the host was quick and easy. Make sure to pack some bug spray for late evenings outside.

The villa is amazing! Exactly what the pictures showed. The garden has sun and shadow all day. Lucca is just a 15/20 minutes drive and Florence 1 hour. The baby bed and high chair were also prepared for us.

Fabulous Stay
We had a most enjoyable time at the Villa Matilde. The facilities are great and we all enjoyed the pool. In the local village is an excellent pizzeria serving very good food. There is also a small shop for bread, cheeses & other groceries.
A little modernisation in the kitchen is probably needed. Plastic glasses for use around the pool would also be safer.

We had a wonderful family holiday
We travelled from Hampshire.
All enjoyed the garden, pool, pidgeon and ants. Marvelous sunshine.
We dinned in the garden gazebo all the nights. We "did" Lucca several times, much of the neighborhod, as for as Lerici (by the sea)when we had local fish and pasta BELLISSIMO!
The "crispy Pizza base" Pizzeria in Calci was exceptional value for money and was full of LOCALS!
Friendly and welcoming, not other tourists. LOVED IT ALL

Beautiful, peaceful, well kept property!
We stayed at villa Matilde near Lucca for 12 days in June. Lovely property divided into two and was ideal for our family, parents with two children and grandparents. The property was tastefully furnished. The kitchen had everything you needed and lots of hot water no matter what time of day. Beautiful, peaceful, well kept garden with pool and lovely dining out area under a big canopy. Any queriesquestions were dealt with promptly
We would definitely use Lucca Apartments and Villas again.
