住宿简介

Villa Lorena, a Family Vintage Home with Indoor Pool, Air Conditioning, Outdoor Pool, Fitness Room & Wifi

  • Only 20 minute drive away from the city of Lucca and 15 mins to Montecatini Terme sits VILLA LORENA, a family villa rich of character that dates back to the 16th century and now completely decorated to transport you to the an era of vintage beauty and country shabby elegance.



    Kids will enjoy the proximity to the village of Collodi with its Pinocchio’s Park and hometown of the writer that gave birth to the character. The villa is setted at the top of a hill with gorgeous views and a heated indoor pool with grand windows overlooking the valley. The house comes with 6 bedrooms (all air conditioned) and 4 bathrooms, a private Spa with sauna and gym, a spacious fully equipped kitchen, air conditioning, a grand private outdoor swimming pool with a magnific view, a panoramic terrace, an outdoor dining area among the trees with barbeque and a wood fired pizza oven.



    Extensive manicured grounds with magnificent views over the woods and the small stone villages completes the list of highlihts of VILLA LORENA. No matter what your ideal vacation looks like, the medieval city of Lucca and its surroundings offer so many opportunities: if you like to keep up with your workout, the paths along vineyards and olive groves are a glorious backdrop to stroll, power-walk, jog or cycle to; for the beach lovers the coastal strip of Versilia, reachable within 30 minute drive, is the place to be; for the music aficionados many classical and rock/pop music festivals are held here throughout the year. That’s why Lucca is becoming one among the elite summer destinations in Tuscany.



    Please kindly remark that the house is reachable through an unmade road, therefore it is not suitable for sport cars, cars with low suspensions or drivers who are unfamiliar with country roads.



    VILLA LAYOUT:



    Ground floor:

WOW Villa Lorena!!

A super last-minute booking due to extreme weather in the area (105 degrees!!) so we switched to Lorena since it had air conditioning ... and SO we glad we did! Incredibly private with views and multiple outdoor eating areas (despite the heat we took advantage of two of them, it was too good to pass up!). Felt like a mansion, unbelievable amount of space and rooms and bedrooms ... place is three times the size of my house at home. And again the grounds and the views and the peacefulness!! Comfy beds, great charming old style Italian decor.

Family vacation

The villa was a great home base to enjoy Tuscany, with a relaxing vibe. Most of our day trips were less than an hour away. Our villa manager, Martina, was very helpful and helped us reserve a wine tasting, arranged a private chef for an evening and provided insight for restaurants and sight seeing. Our only issues were the american coffee maker didn't work, the lack of extra towels, and the clothes dryer wasn't installed.

Grazie tante!

Do you want to spend unforgettable moments with your family and friends in a traditional country home on the top of a hill in Tuscany and be able to see olive trees, vineyards and cypress trees, while drinking your cup of Italian coffee in the morning, your glass of wine during the day and cook with your family a wonderful risotto with local ingredients and have the chance to do small trips around the beautiful Tuscan region? If your answer is YES, this home is for you... Wonderful people to deal with, house has soul and you can tell that wonderful moments as family were spent there... Bravo!

Family Vacation at the Villa

We just got back from our week vacation here at the villa. With a family of 11, there was room for all of us. We enjoyed all the different seating areas and especially enjoyed the pool on these hot July summer days. The AC worked great in all the bedrooms. The goats were fun for the grandchildren to see. We hired a chef to come one night to cook us a meal. We all went out to different places during the day and ended up together at night. Villa Lorena is a great place for a large family reunion. The only thing I would recommend is some kind of written instructions at the property as to the separation of the recyclables.

Amazing villa , with acres of surrounding space

Nothing much to add to previous reviews, except that we were a fairly large group (10 persons) renting a mini van for 17 persons (quite big!) and there were no problems reaching the villa. Last part of the road (approximately 500 meters) is country road, but not ruggedoff road as mentioned before. Sidrak and Cristina replied to all our questions within 15 minutes, very helpful and punctual. Villa itself is very charming, with a touch of past throughout, decorated with style and passion. Highly recommended!

Tuscan Serenity

Remotely situated in the foothills of Capannori, the six of us very much enjoyed time for rest & relaxation at Villa Lorena. We scheduled a number of day trips (some with and some without the expert assistance of the property's manager, Martina). We're very glad to have rented a car for the duration of our time there as there is nothing within walking distance of the property. We booked car service for some of our excursions/dinners, and found it extremely expensive, often costing more than dinner itself. We definitely recommend booking a chef (Francesca was fantastic!) as you will find this to be another way to enjoy the property. Martina, as the owners representative, was very responsive and helpful.

wonderful place to relax

The place is outstanding. It provides you with everything you might expect for a relaxing holiday in the countryside of the Tuscany. We stayed there in October with a group of ten people, aged over three generations. There are different places inside and outside to sit all together talking or doing games. Whenever you're looking for a silent place to read a book, there are different spots to sit, relax and enjoy the view and the nature. The youngest enjoyed the little indoor pool as well as the in this time of year rather refreshing outside pool. The bedrooms are spacious, the beds comfortable and as you're out in the nowhere it is absolutely quit. The road leading to the house is a bit of an adventure but no problem to drive on. We recommend this villa to all those who want to enjoy the wonderful countryside of the Tuscany. All of us enjoyed it very much and would like to come back.

A Piece of Paradise

My family stayed at Villa Lorena and loved the villa and its property. It was the perfect setting for an Italian vacation with places to sit outside and inside. The rooms were spacious and decorated as an Italian villa should be. Bathrooms were very nice and every couple had their own. We had Cristina and her helper come and make dinner for us for my daughter in law's birthday and we were able to decide on the menu choices from dishes she offered. It was a very memorable meal! The area is so close to so many places to explore and we had a great time finding them! As so many people have said in other reviews, the road up to the villa is challenging. It is very rough in places and is a bit daunting. We usually went out only once a day so we bumped our way down and up again. We cooked some meals at the villa and had a great time working together because there was room to have us all involved. My family enjoyed the pool and the lighting in the pool at night was very nice. We were so comfortable looking out at the beautiful hills with all the olive groves and vineyards. There was a fig tree with a couple of ripe figs to taste. Herbs were growing near the door to the sunroom and my son found some additional fruits growing nearby too. How can you not like a piece of paradise?

If you are looking for an authentic experience, that's the place.

Authentic tuscan country house. Hidden from the main road of the village. Led to by a beautiful dirt road. The villa itself has everything you may need. If you are looking for a modern stay, book at Hilton. If you are looking for an authentic experience, that's the place.

Villa Lorena for a wonderful family vacation

I can't begin to describe how wonderful our stay at Villa Lorena was. We just got home today and I have to sit down to quickly respond to review our stay. First of all, the Villa is so charming, comfortable, nestled in a lovely setting and filled with creative decorations. Our family of 9 was so happy there, we were sad to leave. Chiara (the manager) was incredible. She was always available to assist in any way we needed, making recommendations, helping us with things that came up. She was professional, kind and warm. Everyone felt like family to us. Graziano (the groundskeeper) also was such a wonderful person. I can go on and on but suffice it to say, you should stay here as soon as you can! The location is perfect. We took excursions to Cinque Terre, Florence, Lucca and Siena with ease. We used services recommended by the management for transportation to and from the cities we visited as well as having chefs come to the home. (I highly recommend TauTouring for car services and Graziella for Chefs at the home). I have such a warm feeling about our vacation at Villa Lorena. If I could give it more than 5 stars I would.

Best location ever

We spent the last days of 2021 in this house and we had a lovely time! The house is cozy and very practical for large groups, it’s decoration and interior makes you feel like you are going to stay in a family’s country house: lived and full of memories. The veranda where the dining table is located is where we spent most of our time together (we were 10 adults) and it is such a nice area: on a clear day you can see all the nature around you (little donkeys included!). The house is full of amenities, in particular the kitchen and its layout allows for both privacy and time together. As described, you will take a short off road street to reach it, but it is short and absolutely doable with a bit of attention (we had bigger cars but also a Smart car). Cristina and her daughter Elisa who manage the house and our main point of contact were absolutely kind and helpful. Before our arrival we communicated very easily on a series of points l: from cribs for kids for instance, we had two new borns with us, to making sure that the house was heated for our arrival. They have also supported with meals: Elisa prepared for us ready-to-heat meals, a very practical formula for big groups , but also a wonderful New Year’s Eve dinner which she cooked and served on the spot! Thank you!!

Una Villa Da Sogno!

Dopo un primo impatto di disagio con la natura e alcuni problemucci prontamente sistemati dalla proprietaria, abbiamo avuto un soggiorno ineccepibile. La casa è da sogno, ci sono molti spazi per stare insieme (agli amici o alla famiglia), per mangiare all’aria aperta o per fare aperitivo. Intorno al cortile ogni tanto compare qualche asinello - e sono affettuosi e adorabili!- e c’è anche un bel gatto che ama stendersi sul terrazzino. Se cercate una casa da sogno in campagna questa è quella che fa per voi. Attenzione solo allo steccato che conduce alla proprietà che potrebbe creare qualche problema al fondo dell'auto se sportiva.

Completely satisfied

This place is even more beautiful than the photos. The grounds are impeccable, and per-fect for kids to safely run around on or just have a leisurely walk. The villa itself was exa-ctly the Tuscan experience we were looking for - tranquil, has it's own impeccable grounds, beautiful views and near distance to a lovely little village with great restaurants. The kitchen is awesome and fully equipped to cook yourself a Tuscan meal to eat al fre-sco. The caretakers are awesome and so helpful. The road to the villa was easy to mana-ge and we did not have any problem. My entire family loved the place, and dream of co-ming back bringing more people to enjoy it. Highly highly recommend this place.

De merveilleux espaces mais des équipements vieillissants

Très belle villa avec vue panoramique dans un endroit rural et calme, très bien située pour se rendre à Pise, Luques ou Florence (en train) La villa offre de très beaux espaces de vie. Nos 4 enfants de 5 à 10 ans ont profité à fond de la piscine! Nous avons passé un très bon séjour. Mrs Sonia, Christina et Franco sont très serviables, la communication était facile et rapide. Cependant, nous avons été déçus de quelques éléments : la route pour arriver jusque la villa est effectivement en mauvais état, pénible et stressant avec une voiture de location..., ce qui ne nous avez pas été mentionné au préalable. Aussi le four est minuscule, ce qui est dommage pour cuisiner vu la capacité d'accueil de la villa. Les prises ne fonctionnent pas toutes, le vélo fait beaucoup de bruit et est juste à côté des pièces de vie, donc nous n'avons pas pu en profiter. Nous n'avons pas eu beaucoup de chance avec le temps, beaucoup de pluie, des orages... et du coup la maison était très humide. En dehors de cela la villa est comme décrite dans l'annonce.

Beautiful view & quiet

Lovely old villa with panoramic view in a quiet rural location. Wish the owner had mentioned (in the advertisement) that the villa was located on an unmaintained road, which is uphill. The rental cars took quite a beating from overgrown shrubs, loose stones, and ruts. It may not be the owners fault that the road is not maintained; however, the owner should make an honest statement about the road situation prior to payment. Renters should also be aware of undisclosed additional payments for air conditioning and gas for running the indoor pool (as well as olive oil). Lots of bees, be sure to bring the eppipen (viisited in August 2018). Outdoor grill is not maintained and there is no oven inside the house. Aside from that the villa is as advertised!

Perfect!

Perfect - pretty much sums up our overall experience. First, Sonia and Cristina were easy to work with and they made sure someone was available for any questions that might arise. Cristina provided some good recommendations for local coffee and pastries as well as villages to go to and wineries to try. The Villa is located at the top of a dirt road surrounded by olive trees and grape vines. The Villa itself was comfortably large enough enough for our family of 12. There was plenty of space inside and out to find a quiet spot if you wanted. The house was very clean and comfortable. There were also numerous areas outside to sit or dine in groups. One evening we had Cristina cook for us and all 12 of us ate outside under a pergola. The food she made was amazing! I highly recommend her if you would like a meal at the house. The location was great and allowed day trips to Lucca, Pisa, Florence and Cinque Terre. Don't miss the village of Monte Carlo which is only 20 minutes away.

Traumvilla in der Toskana

Ein herrliches Anwesen: Großzügig in Platz und Ausstattung. Riesiger Garten mit Ausblick auf Olivenhain. Kleiner Wermutstropfen: Letzter Feldweg zur Villa ist sehr eng und mit großen Schlaglöchern versehen - nichts für tiefergelegte Edelkarossen.

Relaxing for large family group

We had a wonderful stay. We enjoyed a full week at work he villa with our mother and friend of the family. It was a total of 8 of us but there was more than enough room. Everyone had space the kids had a blast in the pool. The kids were from 5 to 12 years old so the size was just right for them. There was only 3 kids. The pool may have been to small for more kids. The management company was great and very personal able. The addition cost for both gas and electric was nominal but we did not use the air conditioner as the weather was nice and it was not needed for us. Just open the windows and let the fresh country air come in. We have rented several villas in Italy and this was a good experience. The kitchen had all you need to cook. The coffee maker could have been a k-cup to make it easier to have a cup. But we managed. There is also a great bakery close by for the morning cappuccino and sweets. They also offer nice sandwiches for lunch. Great location for parties and large groups. The house was well appointed with interesting nic-nacks collected over time. There were two mules (or donkeys) not sure and a horse which was nice to look at while sitting in the sun. Overall it was a great experience and We would stay again.

exceeded our expectations

We had the best family vacation in Tuscany over the Easter holidays!! Our love for Tuscany started at the Villa LORENA. The Villa LORENA was an amazing place to stay. It was just what we were looking for to experience the beauty of the country and the lifestyle of the culture. It is located in a quiet area of the Lucca Hills. The property exceeded our expectations. There were endless places inside and outside the home to gather for meals, relaxation and socializing. The home is sprawling, and even with twelve of us, there was still always a place to also experience private moments. The views from this property are spectacular from inside and outside of the home. We explored the beautiful Tuscan cities of Lucca, Florence, and Pisa and also took a day trip to Cinque Terre in the Liguria region. A big thank you to Cristina who met us the first day we arrived and later in the stay provided her services to us with a memorable cooking experience, followed by an amazing supper prepared for the whole family. The greeting and the goodbye were both welcoming, organized and attentive. This home is everything it says it is and more. Thank you so much for an amazing place to stay on a family vacation in Tuscany Cristina, Katrina, Sonia and family.

Fantastic Tuscan Villa

It's hard to describe what it feels like to arrive at the property, see the house and the view, hear the church bells chime every 30 minutes. Though we had plans to day trip all over the area, we could not resist spending the first day just relaxing, cooking and enjoying the wonderful atmosphere. The property is very private, with views across a small valley to a village with the church. There are two very cozy outdoor dining areas, and multiple places to sit and just enjoy the sunset, with a glass of wine. Mornings are peaceful as well, with the sun lighting up the village while you drink coffee in the dining room or outside. All rooms are very clean, and comfortable, with the master having its own outdoor deck facing the same view as the rest of the house. Two bedrooms have en suite baths, one with a full, very large, bathtub. There are two large dining rooms on either side of the spacious kitchen, each seating 8, but the larger of the two outdoor spaces could accommodate everyone outside, too. The kitchen has everything you would need, except there is no oven. We did not miss it. There IS a brick oven outside in a small patio area, but I would not know how to use it well, anyway. Unlike other properties listed, this is actually the entire house and all the grounds surrounding it, and is a fantastic value. It has been in Catarina's family for generations (the daughter of the owner we met), and there are family touches throughout the home, making it a very pleasant and intimate stay. There is a working fireplace in the living room, and yes, an indoor heated pool that is wonderful for soaking after a long day walking Florence (45 minutes East), Lucca (15 minutes west - DO NOT MISS) and Pisa (45 minutes West). An hours train ride will get you to the Cinque Terre, which will be a highlight of any trip, and you can spend days wandering the rest of Tuscany which stretches southward from the area. Despite being so quiet and private, the A11 freeway is 10-15 minutes south, making this villa a great central place from which to explore all of northern Italy. (Rome is still only two hours away, by driving or taking the train, to Florence, then the high speed rail.) Other notes: Grocery is ten minutes in Pescia, or Lucca. Road to house is unpaved, and may surprise you the first time. Keep going!! :) (You will be met and guided to the house the first time for check in) Say hi to the burros on the property - they love carrots.
