Nestled just a short drive from the medieval walls and towers of Lucca, this elegant 19th-century villa is set on a stunning estate. Perfectly positioned near the ancient town of Lucca, it offers the ideal base for exploring the region’s many treasures. Guests can bike along the medieval walls of Lucca, ascend the Leaning Tower of Pisa, visit one of Florence’s numerous museums and churches, or spend the day shopping or enjoying the beach in the picturesque towns along the Versilia coast.

Once the esteemed residence of Prince Frederick of Denmark during his Grand Tour of Italy, Villa Controni stands as a stunning villa rental nestled in the heart of Tuscany, making it an ideal haven for large families or groups of friends eager to immerse themselves in the rich culture and beauty of the region. Surrounded by lush greenery, the enchanting walled garden serves as a serene retreat, featuring a large swimming pool where guests can refresh themselves under the Tuscan sun. Adjacent to the garden, the original summerhouse has been transformed into a well-equipped fitness room, catering to those who maintain their wellness routines while on holiday.

The outdoor spaces are designed for convivial gatherings, with a spacious alfresco dining area that invites guests to savour delicious meals al fresco, and a beautifully furnished loggia that offers shade and comfort, complete with an adjoining barbecue area perfect for enjoying traditional Tuscan feasts prepared by an in-house chef. After a day of exploring the charming surroundings, guests can unwind in the elegant billiards and reading room, a cosy sanctuary for relaxation and entertainment, ensuring every moment at Villa Controni is a memorable one.
