Overall: We enjoyed our time at the villa. There was a wonderful dinner provided by staff at the main house. Enjoyed Most: Very pleasant grounds - enjoyed sitting by pool. Paths through gardens are delightful. Enjoyed Least: Only two of bedrooms have full showers. Surrounding Area: Loved Lucca and the farmhouse restaurant just a few kilometers up the hill from our property. Restaurant had a lovely view and excellent food. Tips or Restaurants: Farmhouse restaurant up the hill. Bring a comfortable pillow (hard to travel with!) and spend a day in Lucca. Directions: There was a road closed so initial directions took us a back way to villa. While there, the main road opened and we had no problems finding our way. Check In Out: Marcello was delightful and check-in/check-out were very easy.
