location, surrounded by a lush valley with the enchanting name "La
Valle del Canto." The house offers the perfect setting for a relaxing
holiday with family or friends. The large, well-kept grounds also make
it a paradise for children.
The large village of Nave is just 4 kilometres away and offers a good
selection of shops, restaurants, and a small supermarket. The beautiful
town of Lucca, with its impressive city walls and many churches, can be
reached in just 20 minutes by car. On the third weekend of every month,
it also hosts one of Italy’s finest antique markets. Pisa, Montecatini
Terme, the popular seaside town of Viareggio, and the cultural hub of
Florence (100 km) also make great day trips.
he house is built from natural stone. One end features exposed
stonework, while the other is rendered and painted in a warm cream
colour. The manicured garden includes a lovely dining pergola draped in
wisteria, numerous seating areas, hammocks, comfortable loungers, and a
shaded lounge spot. Entertainment is provided with table tennis and a
small football pitch. The large pool is another highlight.

ceilings and natural stone walls, combined with light floors and modern
furnishings, create a bright and airy atmosphere. Colourful accents add

About the area
Lucca, Italy, is a captivating city that embodies the quintessential charm of Tuscany. Enclosed by well-preserved Renaissance walls that have been transformed into a pedestrian promenade, the city invites visitors to step back in time and explore its historical treasures at a leisurely pace.
The heart of Lucca is its old town, a labyrinth of cobblestone streets, picturesque piazzas, and elegant buildings. The Piazza dell'Anfiteatro, a unique elliptical square, is a highlight, built on the ruins of an ancient Roman amphitheater. Visitors can enjoy the vibrant atmosphere of the piazza, which is lined with cafes and shops, perfect for sipping a cappuccino and people-watching.
Lucca's rich history is showcased in its numerous churches, the most famous being the San Michele in Foro with its stunning façade and the Lucca Cathedral (Duomo di San Martino), which houses remarkable artworks and the revered Volto Santo di Lucca, a wooden crucifix. The city's religious heritage is further celebrated during the Luminara di Santa Croce festival, where Lucca is illuminated by thousands of candles in a breathtaking display.
For those with a taste for adventure, climbing the Guinigi Tower offers a rewarding experience. The tower is notable for the ancient oak trees growing atop its roof, providing a unique vantage point over the city and the surrounding Tuscan countryside.
Music enthusiasts will find Lucca especially endearing as it is the birthplace of the famous composer Giacomo Puccini. The Puccini Museum, located in his childhood home, is a pilgrimage site for opera lovers, and the city hosts an annual summer festival celebrating his works.
Beyond its historical and cultural offerings, Lucca is also a gateway to the Tuscan landscape, with opportunities for cycling and hiking along the Serchio River or through the nearby hills. The city's culinary scene is equally enticing, featuring traditional Tuscan cuisine, fine wines, and local specialties like Buccellato, a sweet bread that is a Lucca staple.
Lucca's blend of history, culture, and natural beauty, combined with its relaxed atmosphere and friendly locals, makes it a destination that offers a truly authentic Italian experience. Whether you're seeking to immerse yourself in history, enjoy the arts, or simply indulge in the pleasures of Italian life, Lucca is a city that will capture your heart and leave you longing to return.
