Lucca Area Villa for Rent: Borgo Lago del Sole - Cometa - Property 87885

About the Experience
Become a part of a hamlet with this Lucca villa rental, great for a family traveling together. Whether you're relaxing at this Tuscany vacation villa for rent or exploring the surrounding area, you'll never be bored. On-site, you'll have access to the enormous shared swimming pool, the gym, and even a Turkish bath! And since this villa in Tuscany is within a few minutes' drive of Lucca-- you will have a beautiful medieval city to explore.

Location
This villa complex is located in the hills surrounding Lucca, in a beautiful position. It is close to Pieve Santo Stefano, where there are two excellent restaurants. Lucca is worth enjoying simply for its medieval charm, but there are also a number of interesting sights to visit, as well as a great antique market held on the third Sunday of each month. 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! Also nearby is the town of Pisa, famed of course for its less-than-level tower, and along the coast to the north you'll run into Pietrasanta and the marble town of Carrara. Florence is also certainly within day trip distance, as there are frequent trains passing Lucca in that direction.
