Description
If your dreams of Tuscany feature rolling hills, olive groves, quaint farmhouses and a touch of modern luxury, look no further than VILLA IL CASTELLO. Nestled into olive groves with views of Lucca in the distance, the villa has all the charm of rural Tuscany but makes a convenient base for exploring the area. And although the six-bedroom Villa was restored in 2020 to feature perks like its own Spa, its architecture is still beautifully traditional.
Get a glimpse of daily life in Italy as you stroll the villa’s garden, relax on the terrace, dip into the panoramic swimming pool, grill local produce on the barbecue and sip wine at the outdoor dining area while gazing at the far-off medieval towers of Lucca. Whether you’ve been biking in the countryside or just sampling the local gelato, treat yourself to a session in the villa’s indoor jacuzzi at candlelight and an evening in front of the antique chimneypiece watching your favourite movies in multiple languages.
Though you can see the past of VILLA IL CASTELLO in its traditional brick floors, beamed ceilings and fireplaces, the interiors feel bright and airy thanks to updated furniture and crisp light blue and white paint. Let yourself be charmed by the living room’s geometric-patterned rug and elaborately carved sofa table as you sink into the sleek taupe sectional. A long table, eclectic chairs and a contemporary chandelier make the dining room particularly inviting, and the fully equipped kitchen has a central breakfast bar perfect for gathering around.
The bedrooms at VILLA IL CASTELLO have the same intriguing combination of soft, traditional earth-toned walls and furnishings with a slightly modern edge.
Plan to fly into the Pisa airport, which is only 35 mins from the Villa. The museums, cafes and shopping in Lucca are just under 7 km from the property while groceries, supermarket and restaurants are just 2 kms away, and if it’s not a vacation without Thermal Baths, you’re in luck: Bagni di Pisa is only 15 km away. Take a day trip to San Gimignano, Pisa, Florence, Pistoia, Montecatini Terme, Cinque Terre, Volterra, Bolgheri, Forte dei Marmi, Viareggio or continue your Italian getaway in Rome, 278 km away.

Our family of 8 had the most fabulous stay at Villa Il Castello set in the countryside near Lucca. The beautiful villa was warm, inviting and extremely comfortable. The rooms were charming, well appointed and clean. The kitchen was super well stocked with all the amenities we required. Along with a large dining room, the villa also had two lovely outdoor eating spaces. The views from the garden just outside the vila overlook the large pool and vistas of Lucca city. The Jacuzzi was perfect to come home to at the end of each day
We spent a blissful 5 days at the villa and would highly recommend it to anyone that is interested. The Lucca Apartments and Villa's team coordinated our stay seamlessly over email and once we were at the villa Manuela, our concierge, took great care of us! Special shout out to the amazing Alice who cooked us two delicious dinners in the villa. Thank you for a wonderful stay and we hope to be back again soon! |

Villa Il Castello is situated on a Tuscan hillside very close to Lucca with gorgeous views. We had one of our best holidays here with four other couples. The villa is spacious and intriguing. The Jacuzzi was a huge hit. One evening we had a delicious dinner prepared by a local chef. My best memory is drinking wine on the veranda while listening to the music from the village festival. Simona was the most attentive agent I have ever dealt with. We had Fantastic feelings - highly recommend!

This villa exceeded all of our group's expectations (and that is saying quite a bit as our group of 7 ladies were away from our families for 7 days and wanted a top notch vacation!) The host, Sonia, met us upon our arrival with fresh pastries, a history of the villa and maps with key points of interest. She coordinated our first night's meal by a local woman, gave us in-formation to local favorite restaurants and sites, took us to several behind-the-scenes desti-nations such as the local smithy, olive press and family-owned vineyard as well as massages at the villa. The villa was very comfortable, neat and had many special touches like a wel-come basket filled with local delights. It was ample for a party our size with room to spare. I can not say enough about how truly wonderful our visit was and only wish we were going again this year. Here's to returing for our 50thsooner if we can sneak away from our husbands and children! Ashley from London

We stayed at the property in late March 2019. Our stay was absolutely wonderful. The Vil-la was beautifully done. Bedrooms were comfortable, the kitchen large, the living spaces spacious and more than enough for everyone. The house was immaculate. The grounds were beautiful, the garden was romantic and elegant with many lemon trees and the ga-zebo on the top of the fortress surrounding the property with a breathtaking view. The Jacuzzi pool was a welcome relief in the afternoon and well used by our children. We were also blessed with a lovely owner available for our request and always met with a big smile.
The Lucca Apartments and Villas Team, the host, was outstanding. They were like a personal concierge. They helped arran-ge anything we needed during our excursions thru Tuscany. Advice on best places to see, best spots to park, best restaurants to visit. This is my 8th visit to Italy, but I saw it through new eyes. This note is just to say how much we loved our stay in Villa Il Castello. This Villa was the PERFECT way to appreciate Tuscany: it's location, the views, and especially the hospitality, It is a magical place! We loved every moment. A million thanks. |

Really really lovely place. Very secluded and away from it all, set high in the hills so that you can see wonderful views of Tuscan valleys and still feel like you're in your own little world. The property has 5 bedrooms, we were 2 families (2 adults with 2 kids each) so this suited us perfectly. Rooms are charming and well maintained, the kitchens have a full equipment and the bathrooms are well appointed and all expectations were more than met. We had 4 kids with us (age range 4-9) and they absolutely loved it. The property allows for kids exploration in the surrounding environment and we felt secure in the knowledge that, with a few ground-rules established early, it was all safe for them to have their own space in. The weather in early/mid September was superb (30 degrees each day), so we spent much of our time in the wonderful outdoor spaces - barbecuing, eating outside at the 10 seater table, pool time, playground activities for kids, general chilling, etc, etc. Overall, a really lovely re-treat in Tuscany that provides a great base to, (a) enjoy time in the property's grounds / pool etc revelling in the outdoor life, and, (b) explore the nearby area - we achieved Pisa, Lucca and Florence... all of which were truly wonderful (Lucca being a very pleasant surprise, lovely walled city that seems to have retained its original character). Truly lovely... Thanks Christina and Mrs Sonia, from all of us.

A memorable experience in a part of the world that needs to be explored. The area is ex-tremely friendly and offers travelers interesting past, present and future - no matter the type of traveler you are.

We spent a beautiful week in Lucca celebrating a milestone birthday. Villa Castello is a truly impressive property, with beautiful grounds, an amazing swimming pool and very comfort-able beds. The villa is very spacious and our group of 10 adults found it very comfortable. The kitchen has all the necessary. One of the highlights of the week was meeting our hostess Cristina. Prior to our arrival she asked if we would be interested in some music at the villa and as we were there to celebrate a birthday I quickly took her up on her suggestion. It turned out to be the best night we had at the villa! Cristina and her husband were fantastic, they set up prior to dinner so we had dinner music and then they sang and entertained us the rest of the evening. Cristina is a great singer and her husband is a skilled musician, play-ing several instruments. We danced and laughed the night away! I would highly recommend booking Cristina for your special evening at the villa, it will make your stay that much more memorable. Looking forward to returning to Lucca.

The pool was such a treat at the end of a day of sightseeing, and the cooking class was a blast Christina. We loved exploring the grounds, the communal meals in the huge dining roomoutside under the trees. A fabulous property-thank you Sonia and Christina for a memorable week.
