A luxury villa near Lucca – Casa Camilla

A small city with a rich history settled in dazzling Tuscan countryside. What city are we talking about? Lucca of course. Traces of Roman, Medieval, Renaissance and the nineteenth century can all be found in Lucca’s urban fabric, much of which has remained surprisingly well self-preserved.

Narrow medieval streets wind and twist, presenting a hidden surprise round almost every corner. Dazzling white marble Romanesque churches contrast starkly to the many orangey/red buildings of the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. Unlike in many cities where greenery is almost entirely void, lush foliage is visible all over Lucca, a reminder of the intense greenery that surrounds this Tuscan city. Yes, it’s safe to say that Lucca is more than worthy of a visit.

So we’ve managed to sell Lucca to you as your next European travel destination, now you’ve got to find somewhere to stay. Let us recommend Casa Camilla, just seven kilometres from Lucca and all its treasures.
