Villa Matraia, Matraia - Capannori - Lucca and Viareggio

4 bedrooms 3 bathrooms 9 guests Private Pool 5 - Superb - Superb 5

With a gorgeous stone exterior draped with wisteria, Villa Matraia is every inch the classic Tuscan villa. Close to the town of Matraia, the property comprises a villa and a separate country cottage, making it a good choice for an extended family or small group of friends, with space to accommodate up to nine. Villa Matraia provides views in abundance: its hilltop position offers breath-taking panoramas over the walled medieval town of Lucca and surrounding hilltop villages.

The main house is spread over three floors and striking features include a beautiful stone fireplace, antique furniture, marble-topped dining table and a delightful loggia in which to relax and dine. A sense of traditional Tuscany has been retained in the exposed beams and brick flooring. The cottage, meanwhile, is full of charm, featuring exposed stone, and the dramatic open-plan design lends a sense of space. Each property has a terrace with outstanding views, making it ideal for guests who wish to come together to socialise but also the opportunity for private moments. Set in a garden packed with Mediterranean flowers and shrubs, the private pool and the adjacent pergola-shaded area are ideal spots for communal gatherings. The only requirement is to sit back and drink in the dreamy views.

Our thoughts
Villa Matraia is the quintessential Tuscan villa, effortlessly combining medieval stonework with 21st-century style and comfort. You will delight in the superb panoramic views of the surrounding rolling countryside, valley and distant mountains. Whether you are organising a trip for extended family or group of friends, this will make an atmospheric choice. The triple bedroom in the attic of the main villa has a steep slope in the roof making it suitable - indeed perfect - as a children's hideout.

Notes
Four bedrooms. Two bathrooms. The twin beds can be converted into a double if requested when booking. The triple bedroom is recommended for children only, due to the steep sloping ceiling. The separate cottage is partly attached to the owners' residence a few metres away but has a separate entrance and is not overlooked. Three cats and a well-behaved dog live on site.
