Set within ten acres of olive groves, woodland and wandering wildflowers, Cottage Le Torrette is a quietly atmospheric Tuscan hideaway where an old olive mill has been reinterpreted with gentle modernity. The landscape feels wonderfully rural, yet the villa lies only a short drive from Lucca, with Florence, Pisa and the elegant shores of Forte dei Marmi all comfortably reached for day trips. Medieval towns, vineyards and slow hilltop villages unfold in every direction, offering plentiful opportunities to explore at an unhurried pace.
The estate’s gardens drift between cultivated beds and wilder corners, with a small vineyard, vegetable patch and aromatic plantings that thrive in the long Tuscan light. Stone paths meander through the groves, leading back to the house where the character of the mill remains visible in its arches, timber beams and old stone floors. Interiors favour natural materials and a soft, understated palette, creating a welcoming calm throughout the living spaces. The bedrooms — twelve in total across the main house and its annexe — are filled with light and individually styled, each with its own bathroom, Egyptian cotton linens and air conditioning. Two of the suites include private sitting areas for those seeking a little extra quiet.
Above the villa, the saltwater pool occupies the historic mill-pond terrace, positioned for far-reaching views over the hills. Generous loungers and shaded seating make it an easy place to linger throughout the day, while a dedicated yoga deck sits slightly apart, surrounded by greenery and ideal for stretching or quiet morning practice. The wider grounds hold corners for reading, wandering or simply enjoying the warmth of the sun.
The annexe mirrors the villa’s simple, elegant aesthetic with two additional bedrooms, bathrooms and a small kitchen and living area — a natural extension of the main house that provides flexibility for larger groups.
A stay at Cottage Le Torrette can be enhanced with a range of services, from private chefs and cooking lessons to massages, yoga sessions and curated wellness experiences. Whether gathering as a family or travelling with friends, the estate offers space, tranquillity and an authentic connection to the Tuscan countryside.
