Description

Villa Boschiglia is a beautiful and luxurious villa built around the middle of 17th century near the medieval town of Lucca. Secluded and protected by an enclosure wall, the villa is the true expression of Lucca’s traditional architecture. The layout of the property is typical of an old era and lifestyle featuring a symmetrical distribution of rooms around a central salon and a noble floor located on the upper level.


Displaying the easy elegant lifestyle of the period, finely decorated with very precious antiques and rich fabric the noble, or main, floor is raised from the country floor, and entered through a portal atop the outside double flight stairway, with a symmetrical distribution of the other rooms around the central living room. There is also interior access to the country, or ground, floor where guests can enjoy delightful dinners in front of a large fireplace.

Guests are embraced by the gentle colours and sharp fragrances of the panoramic countryside.

Upon the opening of the private gate, the guest’s first sight is an alley of ‘tall and pure’ cypresses. The wide park of the Villa with lime-trees, oaks, olives, magnolias, large bushes of aromatic plants, and roses is the ideal background for the inviting Romanic swimming pool.


The wide park of the Villa with lime-trees, oaks, olives, magnolias, large bushes of aromatic plants and roses is the ideal background for the Romanic style swimming-pool nowadays winded by a romantic pergola of Bouganvillas.

The pergola, entwined with Bougainvilleas, offers a pleasant area for outside dining and relaxation. In this atmosphere, culture and art are matched together in the sight and experience of living in this truly gorgeous Villa, where the lifestyle of the guests is quickly adapted to the surroundings.

The historic town of Lucca features many attractions and unlimited historic charm. Take a stroll or rent a bicycle and ride on its ancient walls and through the town past famous monuments, several churches and the Guinigi Tower, which has trees planted at the top. Make sure to visit the church of Saint Michele and then enjoy a cappuccino in Saint Michele square. Don't miss shopping along Via Fillungo!
North of Lucca, the famous Garfagnana Valley extends for miles, a splendid natural vista of mountains and hills. Along the way, stop at the famous "Devil's Bridge"—legend says the Devil himself has visited this spot. A huge Halloween celebration is held here every year. In Pisa, the famous Leaning Tower awaits. Some say it is one of the wonders of the world, and all agree that a sight of the Leaning Tower is a must for all those coming Italy. The nearby Forte Dei Marmi is one of the most popular places in Italy during the summer, boasting a beautiful beach, elegant shops and boutiques, and an active nightlife of bars and clubs like La Capannina and the Twiga Club.
