Description
Immersed in the green and luscious hills of Lucca, with unspoilt views all around, the house and it's gardens appear magically crafted out of the pages of Burnett's "Secret Garden." A lived in family retreat that marries the best of Tuscany with the charm and taste of a British Art Collector.
It' s conveniently located to allow access to Lucca, Pietrasanta, Pisa, Forte dei Marmi, Carrara, The Apennines, and Florence, so one can mix quite and rest with culture, or outdoor action with shopping.
Immersed in the green and luscious hills of Lucca, with unspoilt views all around, the house is conveniently located 20 minutes from the city centre and 30 minutes from the hip seaside town of Forte Dei Marmi. Originally built in medieval times as the parish house next to the church, the house has been sapiently restructured as a charming country family retreat by it's owners who have merged the best of the Italian style with the charm of the english eccentricity.
The Garden
Carefully planned to reflect with it's plants and flowers the different seasons of the year the garden is full of paths and little walks. Every corner, every turn, presents a new surprise view of the house or of the valley below. A stream, and a fish ponds, a tree house, the rose garden, an olive grove, a cypress archway, a secluded swimming pool, and for those who like to play, a croquet set, a ping pong and hidden away from view even a football ground.

This estate is a wonder. It is not a house designed to be a short term rental, it is a personal experience curated by the hosts and generously shared with the guests. The house and the garden are full of treasures to be discovered (the garden changes with the light over the course of the day) and have clearly been built and cared for over time. We felt so privileged to be able to experience them both. Communication with Sidrak and the team was quick and easy, the house was beautifully prepared for our arrival, and the guestbook was full of honest and useful information.

I can’t say enough about this amazing property … everything from the gardens to the architecture to the interior design was stunning. While the location is a bit remote, we found it a delightful location to spend quality time with family and friends. We indulged in a cooking class, making homemade pasta topped off with Tiramisu. Truly one of the most memorable trips our very well traveled family has experienced.
