About The Experience

Great for a family vacation, this villa features a large garden with a private swimming pool and grass-landscaped lawn perfect for picnics in the sun! You won’t need to travel far for those nice views as you can easily see the surrounding hills, olive groves, and vineyards from this self-catering accommodation. Plus, the majestic city of Lucca is just 20 minutes away! This property can also be rented for 8 guests. Please see our listing for Casa Montecarlo 8.

Location Description

The property is located 0.8 kilometers from a restaurant and two kilometers from the village of Gragnano, which has a few food shops, a post office, restaurants, and a bar. Four kilometers away is the town of Montecarlo where there are shops, restaurants, and markets. The main sites here are the churches of Sant Andrea and S. Anna. Fifteen kilometers away is Lucca, which is worth enjoying simply for its medieval charm, but there are also a number of interesting sights to visit. The Duomo di San Martino and the Church of San Michele in Foro are both gorgeous examples of period architecture, while the Casa di Puccini, where the composer was born, has been transformed into a small museum in his honor. You can also climb the 130-foot Torre Guinigi, but on the other hand viewing the tree-topped tower from below might be just as enjoyable… and a lot less work! Plus there are plenty of shops and restaurants for your enjoyment. Other great day trip destinations include Pisa, Florence, and Pietrasanta.
