Private Tuscan Villa Farmhouse with Pool Near Lucca – Secluded Hillside Retreat

Set high in the peaceful hills just outside Lucca, this private and secluded Tuscan villa farmhouse offers complete tranquility, breathtaking views, and an authentic Italian countryside experience. Surrounded by ancient olive groves, woodland, and beautifully landscaped gardens, the property enjoys a privileged position with panoramic vistas across the rolling Tuscan landscape. This is a place to truly disconnect, relax, and immerse yourself in nature, while remaining conveniently close to historic towns, the coast, and major transport links.

The villa farmhouse has been beautifully and stylishly rebuilt, blending traditional Tuscan architecture with modern comfort. Original features such as terracotta floor tiles, exposed chestnut beams, and stone details have been carefully preserved, giving the house warmth, character, and timeless charm. Every element has been thoughtfully designed to create a welcoming yet refined atmosphere, ideal for families, couples, or groups of friends seeking an authentic Tuscan stay.

The property comfortably sleeps up to 8 guests, offering 4 spacious bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, ensuring privacy and comfort for everyone. All bedrooms are equipped with electric fans, making summer nights cool and restful. For spring and autumn escapes, the villa also features underfloor heating and an open fireplace, creating a cozy retreat during cooler months and making this farmhouse an excellent choice for year-round holidays.

At the heart of the home is an extremely well-equipped kitchen, perfect for food lovers, keen cooks, and even cookery demonstrations or culinary retreats. The kitchen offers ample space, quality appliances, and everything needed to prepare anything from simple family meals to elaborate Italian feasts using fresh local produce. Whether you enjoy cooking yourself or hosting private chefs, this kitchen is designed to inspire.

Just a few steps up from the main living area is what quickly becomes a guest favourite: the beautiful summer room. With large fold-back doors that open completely to the outside, this space perfectly captures the essence of al fresco living. It is ideal for pre-dinner aperitivos, long relaxed lunches, afternoon siestas, or simply sitting with a glass of wine while admiring the stunning countryside views. Light-filled and airy, it seamlessly connects indoor comfort with outdoor beauty.

The outdoor areas are equally impressive and perfectly suited to enjoying Tuscany’s wonderful climate. The villa features a fully functional traditional pizza oven and BBQ, making outdoor dining a highlight of every stay. The surrounding garden includes a lovely flat grass area with sun loungers and shaded spots, ideal for relaxing with a book or enjoying time with family and friends.

The large saltwater swimming pool (12 x 6 metres) is set within the garden and enjoys uninterrupted views of the hills, offering a peaceful and refreshing escape on warm days. Whether you prefer an early morning swim or lounging poolside in the afternoon sun, this space has been designed for pure relaxation and privacy.

Despite its secluded hillside location, the villa farmhouse is exceptionally well positioned for exploring Tuscany. The historic city of Lucca is just 20 minutes away (14.5 km), offering beautiful city walls, charming streets, restaurants, and cultural attractions. Pisa International Airport is approximately 45 minutes away, making arrivals and departures straightforward.

This farmhouse is also ideal when rented together with the nearby main villa, making it a perfect solution for large families, weddings, celebrations, yoga retreats, cooking holidays, or group gatherings, while still allowing guests to enjoy privacy and independence. The two properties together provide flexible accommodation without compromising the peaceful atmosphere.

We had a wonderful stay. Property is great. Donatella is the highlight of the property. From the day we checked in she was so welcoming and helpful. She hosted a pizza night and dinner and both were amazing.

Beautiful villa!
Beautiful villa!
We felt fortunate to stay at the beautiful Pianella farmhouse villa for a week. The views were incredible and the atmosphere so serene and relaxing. The villa itself is quite spacious and we appreciated having a bathroom for each bedroom. The pool area was our favorite and had plenty of pools and umbrellas to take cover under. Even without AC the home usually stayed cool enough with the use of the many fans provided. The kitchen was well equipped, having everything you needed for cooking meals at home. Donatella cooked one night for us and the meal was quite large and included many of the rich local dishes. She was also readily available for help if needed - such as driving us into town for groceries. We weren't comfortable driving ourselves up the twisty narrow road so this was especially appreciated! We used Andrea's driving service for trips into the hill towns, the Chianti wine region and to Cinque Terre. They had safe and helpful drivers. Overall a heavenly place to spend a week or more!

After negotiating the road up to the Farmhouse, we felt entirely relaxed and cared for during our 7 night stay by the excellent caretakers Valeria and her husband. The home is spotless with a well-stocked kitchen and modern bathrooms; yet it retains its historic character beautifully. We all LOVED the salt water pool and enjoyed a dip after a day's sightseeing in nearby Lucca, Pisa, San Gimniano, Siena and Florence. We enjoyed three dinners prepared for us by the amazing Donatella and her daughter, Sonya - a real treat with Tuscan specialties. The house commands a lovely view over the valley which we enjoyed every day; truly a memorable and happy time together.

Beautiful home and wonderful time with family
Beautiful home and wonderful time with family
Our family (2 adults, 4 children ages 8-13) spent a wonderful week at the La Pianella Farmhouse this summer. We would highly recommend this rental. The house, pool and surrounding grounds were beautiful, exceptionally clean and well maintained. Mary Ann and Clare were wonderful in helping us arrange our visits (this was our second visit) and checking on us during our stay. Valleria also checked on us regularly and helped us with any question or concern. The views of the beautiful grounds and surrounding areas are magnificent (from both inside the house and the outside seating areas). We all enjoyed swimming and relaxing by the beautiful pool. The inside of the house was lovely--so clean, beautiful and comfortable. We loved our days relaxing at the villa. We also enjoyed several daytrips to Lucca, Pisa, Florence and the beach. We were very fortunate to have Sonia cook for us during our stay. We are very thankful to Sonia for her wonderful cooking and kindness to our family. Thank you Mary Ann and Clare for sharing your beautiful home in Tuscany. We would love to come stay again!

We have recently returned from a fabulous week at La Pianella farmhouse. Our initial trepidation at the narrow steep road to the house was quickly replaced by amazement at the house, grounds and views. The farmhouse had everything and more that we needed and catered excellently for our party of 4 couples, especially as each room had lovely views and a private bathroom. The house is beautifully decorated and furnished to a high quality and it has a lovely salt water pool. There is a very well stocked supermarket in the village which was very handy. It was lovely to meet the owners and their friends whilst we were there and they helped make our stay a memorable one. Mary Ann showed us around the larger villa which is also very well furnished and is ideal for a large gathering. Valeria, Enzo and Donatella, the property managers were very welcoming and made us feel comfortable and at home and were available if we needed anything. The property is ideal for visiting Lucca and the coast which are a short car journey away. It was easy to take the train from Lucca to Pisa and Florence and to venture further afield into the heart of Tuscany by car. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay as it ticked all the boxes and more. We would have no hesitation in recommending the villa to anyone. It is a truly wonderful place- thanks!

Incredible week at the Farmhouse Villa
Incredible week at the Farmhouse Villa
We spent a fabulous week at the Farmhouse Villa with 2 other couples, it was amazing The owners made the booking process very easy and made us feel at ease throughout he process. The villa and the grounds are maintained to a vey high standard, the rooms are spacious and well laid out. The pool area and patio are very beautiful with amazing views and tiered olive trees The Villa is close to Pizza, Florence, Lucca and Cinque Terre, we visited all during our stay. Donatella and her daughter cooked for us every night and the food was better than any restaurant and the great thing was that we never had to leave the Villa. Donatella has a charming personality and we quickly became friends and look forward to seeing her again. The property is even better than the pictures which is rarely the case. We are looking forward to returning again some day soon. Thank you for the great vacation. Chuck, Kim, Todd, Dorie, Tom, Lynne
