About this villa rental
Colle di Compito (near Lucca)
Roocello is the perfect Tuscan house for a family gathering or group of friends.
Located on a tree-lined road in a small Tuscan village just 30 minutes from the enchanting city of Lucca.
Nestled between two streams in a peaceful setting, this characteristic mill has been restored and transformed into a splendid and elegant family home with a private swimming pool.
This unique property is full of character and retains many original elements, including the stone hydraulic wheels of the mill.
The spaces
The interiors of Roocello are an elegant mix of traditional Tuscan furniture and modern comforts, including Wi-Fi, laundry and satellite TV. The outdoor spaces and gardens are a true delight, with tree-lined courtyards, an ancient cypress and a sunny terrace situated beneath the original mechanism of the mill's water wheel.
Located on the outskirts of the village of Colle di Compito, Villa Roocello offers complete privacy and tranquillity, yet in just five minutes on foot you can reach the heart of the village with its narrow cobbled alleyways. Here you will find a small grocery shop, a bakery where you can buy fresh bread every morning and a butcher's shop.
VILLA DETAILS - GROUND FLOOR
LIVING ROOM AND DINING ROOM WITH FIREPLACE
From the internal courtyard, you access a magnificent room with a vaulted ceiling, pleasantly cool during the hot summer months and equipped with a wood-burning fireplace in an ideal position for winter.
This characteristic room of 100 square metres was once the main part of the ancient oil mill, where local inhabitants brought their olives to be pressed. Today this magnificent space still houses two original ancient millstones, once essential for olive oil production.
The living room, elegant and comfortable, offers the perfect space for a family gathering or a group of friends. Near the fireplace, there are 2 spacious sofas and 2 comfortable armchairs.
The formal dining room offers seating for 8 people.
KITCHEN
The fully equipped kitchen is located on the ground floor, next to the dining room. The traditional style kitchen also features a large table with seating for 8 people.
BATHROOM
In the basement there is also a small bathroom, equipped with a toilet, sink and European-style bathtub with shower head.

BATHROOMS (2)

GARDENS AND OUTDOOR SPACES
Villa Roocello boasts enchanting outdoor spaces: shaded corners for relaxing with a book, sunny areas by the poolside for sunbathing, a delightful interior garden rich in summer flowers and hidden corners concealed beyond a small red brick bridge that crosses a stream.
SWIMMING POOL AND POOL DIMENSIONS
The swimming pool is perfect for cooling off during the hottest hours of the day.
Pool dimensions in metres: 5.5 x 3.5 metres, depth 1.3 metres.
ACCESSIBILITY AND PARKING
Villa Roocello is accessible via two roads: one narrow unpaved country road and the other a winding cobbled lane that runs through the centre of the village. Despite their narrowness, the roads are flat.
In the courtyard there is parking available for one car, while on the street in front of the entrance there is space for another car. Within 100 metres there is a public car park.
Guest access
The entire villa and gardens are for the exclusive use of our guests.
Other useful information
The villa is located in a rural setting, on the outskirts of the village, adjacent to a farm; you may hear the lowing of cattle. In this area, the use of pesticides is not widespread, therefore during the summer mosquitoes can be a problem. We therefore recommend bringing insect repellent with you. In case of allergic reactions to mosquito bites, we will arrange for garden disinfection and provide mosquito coils.
