Description
Potted plants and cypres still shade VILLA CLARA from view at this former 18th Century Small Mansion gone glam in the Tuscan countryside. Lush gardens frame a sparkling pool at this restored farmhouse near Lucca, in a village known for its Camellias festival and bespoke Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Beamed ceilings, brick floors, and archways retain the original ambiance, and a dining loggia shows off the views through a parish at the top oft he hill. Cut into local produce in the bright kitchen, relax and play chess in the stone-built pool house -once a horse stable- opening onto the patio by your private swimming pool. Horseback riding, tennis, and golf are all within range.
Grey-toned fabrics, and crystal chandeliers that fill this open-concept home frames big windows revealing rolling hills around the villa say “country estate”, but the city center of Lucca is only 12 kilometers away.
Listen to the bird’s twitter as you stretch out on a lounger by the saltwater pool, play on the lawn, or steal away to the shade of the covered outdoor living area. Savor the complimentary fresh fruit and bottle of wine around the alfresco dining table for 10 before heating up the barbecue for dinner with sunset views.
Stone walls and a tiled roof still give the impression of a period villa, but inside, the home shows off its style in color, texture, and artwork.

The villa was very impressive and exactly how the pictures looked. Luigi and Mariapia were vey helpful upon check in and check out and very accommodating. We have travelled to many villas recently throughout Europe and this was our favourite thus far, a great outdoor space.

As mentioned to Luigi, the only thing we could really think of was something to play music outside (we carry a speaker normally).

This is a beautiful Villa with enough space to comfortably accommodate 8-10 persons. True highlight was the outdoor kitchen with roof and it fast became a place where we spent most of the time.
Nearby is the comfortable Lounge which invites for an evening drink. All rooms had air conditioning and were nicely furnished. Also the outdoor and pool area is presented in a beautiful and well maintained way. The owner Luigi is a friendly and a pleasant host who is taking care for the needs of his guests. He daily cleaned the pool and took care of garbage, without disturbing us. As well Villa was fully cleaned once per week. Luigi supported us with all questions we had and was ensuring truly personal approach. We can recommend to ask him for the delicious homemade olive oil. Overall we spent a perfect time here without any negative impressions and truly looking to come back! |

Our party of 6 adults truly enjoyed the beauty of the Villa. The privacy was wonderful as well as the views to the hills with the church. The recommended chef was not available during our stay, however Luigi found another chef for us to use and he was wonderful. There is nothing better than the beauty of the Tuscan region along with the food and friendly Italian people we were able to meet. Thank you again for a great vacation in Tuscany!

Best villa ever!

A truly 5* villa. It exceeded our expectations in pretty much every way. Luigi, the owner rushed over when the hot water stopped working, nothing was too much trouble and we had the best week ever! We will definitely be going back again.

We were concerned in the beginning that with the staged on-line photos that it may not look like that in reality but that definitely was not the case. The villa was beautiful, very clean, comfortable and very stylishly decorated. It did not disappoint. The welcome committee, Maria, Micah and the villa owner Luigi were very gracious, very helpful and made us feel most welcome. Luigi came each morning (very early) to check on the pool, clean up blossoms that had fallen from the numerous flowers in the garden. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the villa and would definitely recommend this villa to anyone who is looking for a comfortable, central location in Tuscany. We will plan a return trip as one week in Tuscany is not enough and will definitely return to this villa if it is available. Thankyou Maria, Micah and Luigi for making us most welcome and for all of your advice.

This was a gorgeous house but the outdoor dining area and pool made our stay! The house was very clean and the details like the tile floors and frescos on the ceiling were absolutely beautiful. The outdoor dining area was amazing for a large group and we spent 90% of our time outside. Although the location is about 20 minutes from downtown Lucca it was great to be in the countryside and there was a great market 8 minutes away. Our only complaint was that the pillows were very flat and hard which made sleeping uncomfortable. This seems to be common in Italy however! Out entire group loved their stay and we would definitely do it again.

Die Villa Clara ist ein Traum. Stilvolle Details und Ambiente, gute Raumaufteilung waren 8 Personen aus 3 Generationen. Frühstück, Mittagessen und Abendessen wurden ausschließlich in der Outdoor Küche eingenommen. Bis aufs Schlafen und die Mittagsruhe hat sich die ganze Woche nur draußen abgespielt. Klimaanlage in allen Räumen ist so montiert, dass sie nicht direkt aufs Bett bläst. Werden sicher wieder einmal kommen.

The villa was absolutely spectacular! It is as beautifully appointed and tastefully furnished as described and pictured on Airbnb. All amenities are high quality and the place itself is very well maintained. Indoor and outdoor spaces are both beautiful and comfortable. We absolutely enjoyed the additional outdoor kitchen by the pool (overlooking a castle). This place can comfortably fit 10 adults. Also just to add: the check-in and check out process were smooth as well and the owner recommended a great chef for a dinner hosted at the house. I highly recommend this house!!!
