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.
