This wonderful villa is set within walking distance of a variety of restaurants and also just 1.5km from the beautiful, walled historic town of Montecarlo, an area renowned for its quality wines, and olive oil. Here one can also find various bars, restaurants and small grocery shops.... Or, join the 'strada del vino' and have a wine tour! Large supermarket is in Altopascio less than a 10 minute drive.
Montecarlo train station , for trips to Florence and Lucca is just 1.5 km by foot through a shortcut. For more frequent trains then a 5 minute drive to Altopascio station is an easy alternative.
There is a bus stop only 600M from the villa too, although buses are intermittent.

Situated less than 15 minutes from the motorway, and only 20 mins from the stunning walled mediaeval city of Lucca, the location is ideal for exploring other Tuscan towns and cities, with distances as follows:

Montecarlo - 1.5km - beautiful walled town with its own fortress, famed for its vineyards and wine, situated on the 'Strada del Vino'
Stunning mediaeval fully walled city of Lucca - 15 km. Lucca, has regular markets, antiques markets, outdoor concerts with major names, or if you prefer nightly opera recitals, designer shopping, the wall which is wonderful for cycling, relaxing, children's parks, plenty of restaurants and bars, beautiful Piazzas.....
Pisa with it's leaning tower and cathedral - 37 km.
Montecatini Terme - beautiful spa town- 12km.
Florence , home of Michelangelo's David and The Pontevecchio - 60 km.
Beaches of Viareggio - 40 km.
San Gimignano - 70km
Whilst great as a base, the area itself is very beautiful, with plenty of vineyards and beautiful hilltop villages to visit, and the countryside is just stunning.....

NB - owner lives on site but in an 'underground ' property away from the main house, giving guests full privacy, with no worries about making a noise either! Owners available of course if they are needed and they keep the garden and pool area beautiful for you.

Our time in Tuscany
Our time in Tuscany was absolutely wonderful, Franco was such a great host, he had a snack and a beverage waiting for us and it was a pleasure to visit with him. The Villa was so wonderful and we all had a hard time leaving, the adorable little annex was my favourite. We had 4 couples and we each had our own little spaces with our own bathrooms. The pool was refreshing at the end of a hot day and the Restaraunts in Monte Carlo, San Salvatore and Marginone were spectacular. Absolutely loved our Villa, would love to stay again!! Also thankyou Marie at Tuscany retreats for all the arranging of the private Chef and car transfers, she was absolutely wonderful! Sabrina the private Chef and Lucca were wonderful people and the Dinner was amazing!

A week in Tuscany
Our arrival was very early due to a flight change, but Franco did a great job in accommodating us as soon as he could, and welcomed us with drinks and sandwiches. The property lacked nothing, and being split into 3 areas was perfect for a mixture of adults and children. The swimming pool was a must for the very hot weather, and was maintained regularly. Plenty of sunbeds around the pool, and the garden is really nice and has wonderful views. All in all, a great stay.

Bella Toscana
The Villa met all of our expectations, it was private, comfortable & beautiful; as well as being a period building carefully restored by it's original family owner. The location is perfect, being withing walking distance of three villages. There are several choices of restaurants & pizzerias within a short walk. Day trips can be made with ease to Lucca, Pisa & Florence; either by car or by train, the station being 15 minutes walk away.

A perfect Tuscan getaway
A beautiful setting for our Italy adventure. We loved the quiet location that was close to so much. We were not expecting Montecarlo to be so charming. Close to Lucca (a favorite) and some great wineries. The house was beautiful and clean. Pool was lovely and someone came every day to keep it clean. We would definitely consider returning.

Traditional Tuscan Home
This was a very quiet nice old house with a beautiful garden and pool. The location was perfect near a small village of MonteCarlo that was absolutely adorable. It was an easy drive into Florence and surrounded by wineries. In MonteCarlo the food was wonderful and the people were so friendly. The check in process was wonderful and the guys we so sweet and told us all about the property. It's such a nice home and the size was perfect. Unfortunately our family isn't used to only having AC in the bedrooms and even with the AC on it was still very very warm. Our host was nice enough to bring us fans but even with the fans it was still warm. When you open the windows in the main part of the house there are no screens so we had a fun guest join us that we named Sticky Feet (A rather large lizard) but also some not so fun mosquitos that decided to make a meal on us. Over all if you want a traditional Tuscan house with a ton of history this home is for you. Its not for a family looking for all of the modern conveniences of the US.

Perfect location in Tuscany
We planned our family vacation with 14 of us. The pictures don’t do the property justice. There are 3 private areas for sleeping with kitchens. Hanging by the pool is amazing! By car, we were 45 minutes from Florence, 1 hour and 15 minutes from Cinque Terre and only 25 from Pisa. Perfect mid location. There is a small, walled town called Montecarlo s few minutes by car up the road. Lucca, is sbout 20 minutes and offers so much with its walled city, restaurants, activities! The owner was so accommodating and wanted us to enjoy our time. Definitely a great spot for a family or multiple family location!

Amazing place in Tuscany
We had the most amazing time in Franco’s beautiful place. Everything was perfect for 2 families with 11 persons, plenty of space and comfort. Our highlight was the infinity pool with the most beautiful views over the Tuscan countryside. The villa was spacious, elegant and comfortable. Having air conditioning in the bedrooms was an extra bonus. Our 22y old son and his girlfriend slept in the garden house which was also spacious and comfortable with air con. The location is great for visiting Lucca, Florence, Pisa and the seaside. Montecarlo itself was charming with lovely bars and restaurants and it was surprisingly quiet considering it was high season. We loved it there. We can’t thank Franco enough for his kindness and all the great information he gave us. We’d love to come back. Grazie mille!

Superbe demeure toscane
Magnifique gîte, très agréable à partager entre 3 familles amies. Franco est un hôte charmant, volubile et fort accueillant. Ne manquait que quelques ustensiles, éponges et torchons dans la cuisine à l'arrivée.
