This old and impressive fourteenth century Lucchese villa was restored during the seventeenth century and has a very distinctive period style. The grounds of the villa make a perfect setting, and are planted with oak, cork and bay trees. Situated just below the Romanesque church of S. Michele in Escheto, the hotel is well situated for the motorway to both Florence and the Versilian coastline. Lucca is just 2 kilometres away, Pisa 12.
