Description The Grapes of L’Appia: Capannori

There’s room for all twelve of you to pile into this colossal three-storey villa fringing the Tuscan town of Lucca. Built in 1650, the more-is-more opulence of the interiors may be a little fussy. But you can’t help but swoon at the vast living spaces, including a library and study for work, and the generously proportioned bedrooms, each with a bathroom. Lounging about the private pool surrounded by ancient oak, olive, and lime trees, it all feels blissfully secluded. But when you’re ready to sample Tuscan life, the medieval town of Lucca is just an 8-kilometre drive away, and there’s a Nonna-style pizzeria just footsteps from your door.

Home truths:
*A complimentary daily breakfast is included throughout your stay.
*There is ample private parking on the driveway of the villa. Due to the home’s location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay.
*This home is set out across three floors with internal stairs, which may be unsuitable for guests with restricted mobility.
*There’s a dedicated office space for remote working.
*The swimming pool isn't fenced. If you're bringing little ones, they'll need to be supervised at all times.
*While the five rolltop baths with shower head mixer taps are charming, there's only one standalone shower.
