About the villa

In an elevated spot to the northwest of Lucca, this very elegant villa looks out to lovely views, down the valley below and across to the Apuan Alps. Immaculately groomed gardens match the splendour of the house within, scented with roses, jasmine and lavender, studded with small palms and oleander, and terraced with long lawns which surround the large swimming pool, a sundowner table under young olive trees, a built-in barbecue and table tennis. Beside the house, a charming walled courtyard is home to a garden chess set and a dining table in the shade of an oak, and a door from here leads in to the villa’s breakfast room. High ceilinged reception rooms are furnished in ornate traditional style and include a sitting room with French doors to the garden, an intimate snug with fireplace, and a dining room adjacent to the well-equipped kitchen. Four en suite bedrooms in the main house are complemented by three in a separate Guest House, which has its own dining kitchen and sitting room, and attractive country style décor. Villa Regina offers optional cook service and is 13km from Lucca and 5km from shops at San Martino in Freddana.

About the area

Lucca, Pisa & Lunigiana

Average weather

Although they are only 17km apart, Pisa and Lucca instantly feel like different worlds. The former is a lively student city on the River Arno, and has one of the world’s most recognizable monuments: the Leaning Tower of Pisa. Understated Lucca is compact and genteel, ideal for a Tuscany villa nearby, with handsome piazzas that frame churches in the Luccan-Romanesque style. Those on a Lunigiana holiday occupy the Apennine foothills in far north-western Tuscany. It is rolling, blissfully empty terrain whose few inhabitants have cultural links with neighbouring Liguria.

Essential Information

Having a barbecue in Italy is one of the best ways to cook your food but you may find that due to long drought periods in high season barbecuing may be restricted in some areas. You will be informed if this happens by your house staff or local representative.
