Wild Lucca

Wild Lucca: Tuscany

This rustic villa with a private Jacuzzi, sauna, and pool has charm and green shutters in spades. Though the interiors may feel dated, we can forgive that for its outstanding location. Set in a peaceful suburb of Lucca (10km), there are restaurants and shops within walking distance, and Pisa, Florence, and the coastal resort of Viareggio are all within easy reach for day trips. Perfect for three couples wanting to holiday together without crowding each other, each bedroom has an ensuite bathroom. It's worth noting though only one of the bedrooms has air-conditioning, so you'll need to pull straws for that.

Home truths:
*A well-behaved dog (up to 30kg) is welcome to join you for no additional fee.
*This home has ample private parking outside. The owner's house is along the driveway – they are available for assistance but do not use the pool or facilities.
*The inside dining table only has room for four people, but there’s plenty of space for all six of you around the alfresco dining area with an outdoor kitchen.
*Air-conditioning is available in only one bedroom and the landing.
*The swimming pool is for seasonal use from May to October, weather permitting. It’s unfenced, so if you’re bringing little ones, they’ll need to be supervised at all times. Pool towels are provided, so you can pack a little lighter.
*A cot and high chair are available.
