Description
Only 20 minute drive away from the city of Lucca and 15 mins to Montecatini Terme sits VILLA LORENA, a family villa rich of character that dates back to the 16th century and now completely decorated to transport you to the an era of vintage beauty and country shabby elegance.
Kids will enjoy the proximity to the village of Collodi with its Pinocchio’s Park and hometown of the writer that gave birth to the character. The villa is setted at the top of a hill with gorgeous views and a heated indoor pool with grand windows overlooking the valley. The house comes with 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, a private Spa with sauna and gym, a spacious fully equipped kitchen, air conditioning, a grand private outdoor swimming pool with a magnific view, a panoramic terrace, an outdoor dining area among the trees with barbeque and a wood fired pizza oven.
Extensive manicured grounds with magnificent views over the woods and the small stone villages completes the list of highlihts of VILLA LORENA. No matter what your ideal vacation looks like, the medieval city of Lucca and its surroundings offer so many opportunities: if you like to keep up with your workout, the paths along vineyards and olive groves are a glorious backdrop to stroll, power-walk, jog or cycle to; for the beach lovers the coastal strip of Versilia, reachable within 30 minute drive, is the place to be; for the music aficionados many classical and rock/pop music festivals are held here throughout the year. That’s why Lucca is becoming one among the elite summer destinations in Tuscany.
Please kindly remark that the house is reachable through an unmade road, therefore it is not suitable for sport cars, cars with low suspensions or drivers who are unfamiliar with country roads.

We just got back from our week vacation here at the villa. With a family of 11, there was room for all of us. We enjoyed all the different seating areas and especially enjoyed the pool on these hot July summer days. The AC worked great in all the bedrooms. The goats were fun for the grandchildren to see. We hired a chef to come one night to cook us a meal. We all went out to different places during the day and ended up together at night. Villa Lorena is a great place for a large family reunion.

The only thing I would recommend is some kind of written instructions at the property as to the separation of the recyclables.

I can't begin to describe how wonderful our stay at Villa Lorena was. We just got home today and I have to sit down to quickly respond to review our stay. First of all, the Villa is so charming, comfortable, nestled in a lovely setting and filled with creative decorations. Our family of 9 was so happy there, we were sad to leave. Chiara (the manager) was incredible. She was always available to assist in any way we needed, making recommendations, helping us with things that came up. She was professional, kind and warm. Everyone felt like family to us. Graziano (the groundskeeper) also was such a wonderful person. I can go on and on but suffice it to say, you should stay here as soon as you can! The location is perfect. We took excursions to Cinque Terre, Florence, Lucca and Siena with ease. We used services recommended by the management for transportation to and from the cities we visited as well as having chefs come to the home. (I highly recommend TauTouring for car services and Graziella for Chefs at the home). I have such a warm feeling about our vacation at Villa Lorena. If I could give it more than 5 stars I would.

We spent the last days of 2021 in this house and we had a lovely time! The house is cozy and very practical for large groups, it’s decoration and interior makes you feel like you are going to stay in a family’s country house: lived and full of memories. The veranda where the dining table is located is where we spent most of our time together (we were 10 adults) and it is such a nice area: on a clear day you can see all the nature around you (little donkeys included!). The house is full of amenities, in particular the kitchen and its layout allows for both privacy and time together. As described, you will take a short off road street to reach it, but it is short and absolutely doable with a bit of attention (we had bigger cars but also a Smart car). Cristina and her daughter Elisa who manage the house and our main point of contact were absolutely kind and helpful. Before our arrival we communicated very easily on a series of points l: from cribs for kids for instance, we had two new borns with us, to making sure that the house was heated for our arrival. They have also supported with meals: Elisa prepared for us ready-to-heat meals, a very practical formula for big groups , but also a wonderful New Year’s Eve dinner which she cooked and served on the spot! Thank you!!

Do you want to spend unforgettable moments with your family and friends in a traditional country home on the top of a hill in Tuscany and be able to see olive trees, vineyards and cypress trees, while drinking your cup of Italian coffee in the morning, your glass of wine during the day and cook with your family a wonderful risotto with local ingredients and have the chance to do small trips around the beautiful Tuscan region? If your answer is YES, this home is for you... Wonderful people to deal with, house has soul and you can tell that wonderful moments as family were spent there... Bravo!

Nothing much to add to previous reviews, except that we were a fairly large group (10 persons) renting a mini van for 17 persons (quite big!) and there were no problems reaching the villa. Last part of the road (approximately 500 meters) is country road, but not ruggedoff road as mentioned before. Sidrak and Cristina replied to all our questions within 15 minutes, very helpful and punctual. Villa itself is very charming, with a touch of past throughout, decorated with style and passion. Highly recommended!

My family stayed at Villa Lorena and loved the villa and its property. It was the perfect setting for an Italian vacation with places to sit outside and inside. The rooms were spacious and decorated as an Italian villa should be. Bathrooms were very nice and every couple had their own. We had Cristina and her helper come and make dinner for us for my daughter in law's birthday and we were able to decide on the menu choices from dishes she offered. It was a very memorable meal!
The area is so close to so many places to explore and we had a great time finding them! As so many people have said in other reviews, the road up to the villa is challenging. It is very rough in places and is a bit daunting. We usually went out only once a day so we bumped our way down and up again. We cooked some meals at the villa and had a great time working together because there was room to have us all involved. My family enjoyed the pool and the lighting in the pool at night was very nice. We were so comfortable looking out at the beautiful hills with all the olive groves and vineyards. There was a fig tree with a couple of ripe figs to taste. Herbs were growing near the door to the sunroom and my son found some additional fruits growing nearby too. How can you not like a piece of paradise? |

Dopo un primo impatto di disagio con la natura e alcuni problemucci prontamente sistemati dalla proprietaria, abbiamo avuto un soggiorno ineccepibile. La casa è da sogno, ci sono molti spazi per stare insieme (agli amici o alla famiglia), per mangiare all’aria aperta o per fare aperitivo. Intorno al cortile ogni tanto compare qualche asinello - e sono affettuosi e adorabili!- e c’è anche un bel gatto che ama stendersi sul terrazzino. Se cercate una casa da sogno in campagna questa è quella che fa per voi. Attenzione solo allo steccato che conduce alla proprietà che potrebbe creare qualche problema al fondo dell'auto se sportiva.
