Our charming villa, with its rustic elegance, sits high on the panoramic Ciciana hill in one of the most picturesque corners of Terre di Matraia: an area known for its excellent wines and some of Tuscany’s most beautiful historic villas.Just 20 minutes from the heart of medieval Lucca, the villa offers a peaceful, timeless atmosphere with breathtaking views all around.Once a hunting lodge, the house has been lovingly restored by its owners with great care and attention to detail. Traditional Tuscan materials like cypress beams, pietra serena, and terracotta tiles blend beautifully with refined, simple furnishings to create a space that feels both welcoming and inspiring, a place where memories are made.Spread across three spacious floors, the villa offers plenty of room for everyone. Thoughtfully designed common areas make it perfect for groups, while still giving guests the space and privacy to relax at their own pace.Each of the 11 beautifully decorated bedrooms is air-conditioned, has Wi-Fi, and boasts sweeping views of the surrounding Forci estate: 1,000 acres of olive groves, vineyards, and woodland.The heart of the home is its Tuscan-style kitchen, where you’ll be introduced to the region’s culinary traditions and feel the warmth and hospitality of this magical place.Outside, the colorful garden unfolds in layers of beauty: elegant lounge areas, a panoramic swimming pool, and a wisteria-draped pergola with a long table perfect for alfresco meals. There’s also a barbecue and plenty of quiet corners for soaking in nature’s charm.The garden invites you to unwind and reconnect: with the land, your creativity, and yourself. It's an ideal setting for outdoor crochet or simply walking and breathing in the fresh country air.The swimming pool, set about 50 meters from the villa, is a true gem. Surrounded by sun loungers, large tables, and umbrellas, it’s the perfect place to relax under the Tuscan sun.The pool measures 6 x 14 meters, with a depth that gently slopes from 1.20 to 1.80 meters: ideal for a refreshing dip at any time of day.
