Montefiore – A Serene Tuscan Retreat with Panoramic Views and Modern Comforts
Nestled atop the picturesque hills on the southern side of Lucca, Montefiore offers a unique blend of rustic charm and modern luxury. Just 7 km from Lucca’s historic city center, this enchanting farmhouse is the perfect retreat for those seeking the tranquility of the countryside while staying within easy reach of one of Tuscany’s most beloved towns.
For outdoor enthusiasts, Montefiore is a gateway to scenic hiking trails, some of which start right at the property. One trail even leads to a charming traditional restaurant, where you can savor authentic Tuscan cuisine after your hike.
Authentic Tuscan Charm Meets Modern Amenities
Montefiore has been thoughtfully restored to preserve its authentic Tuscan character, featuring traditional beamed ceilings, terracotta floors, and original fixtures like a wood-fired pizza oven and an outdoor barbecue. These timeless elements are complemented by modern comforts, including Wi-Fi, air conditioning in most bedrooms, and mosquito nets on all windows, ensuring a relaxing and hassle-free stay.
Spacious and Comfortable Accommodations
The property accommodates up to 10 guests across six beautifully appointed bedrooms and four bathrooms. Four double bedrooms and two single rooms provide ample space for families or groups of friends. Most bedrooms, apart from one single room, are equipped with air conditioning (included in the rental price), ensuring a cool and restful night’s sleep during the Tuscan summer.
A Family-Friendly Oasis
The highlight of Montefiore is its fully fenced swimming pool, making it an ideal choice for families with children. The pool features an upstream swim function and is surrounded by comfortable seating, including sofas and chairs, perfect for unwinding while taking in the stunning views of the surrounding hills.
An Unbeatable Location in Tuscany
Montefiore’s prime location makes it an excellent base for exploring the rich culture, history, and culinary delights of Tuscany. Whether you’re strolling through the cobblestone streets of Lucca, visiting nearby vineyards, or venturing to Florence and Pisa, this property puts you in the heart of it all.
Travel Tips
Please note that the final stretch of the road leading to Montefiore is narrow and winds through beautiful antique stone walls. For a smoother journey, we recommend renting a mid-sized vehicle rather than a large van.
Montefiore is more than just a rental property—it’s your home away from home in Tuscany. Book your stay today and immerse yourself in the timeless beauty of the Italian countryside.
