Casa Freddana

Cloaked in blossoming climbers and set amid long lawns, Casa Freddana is a typically Tuscan farmhouse both indoors and out. Tiled floors, beamed ceilings and colour-washed walls, characteristic of its age and location, are enhanced now with charming country-style comfort throughout its inviting interiors. In the kitchen modern appliances complement a fireplace and the original wood oven, and French windows open on to a south-facing dining terrace, overlooking valley views and shaded by a rose-draped rustic pergola.A bright sitting room, adjacent dining room and twin bedroom share the ground floor. A second twin room enjoys independent access from the garden at lower ground level, and three bedrooms on the upper floor include the spacious master suite, with its four-poster double, soft toned décor, and en suite bath and shower. In the sloping grounds above the house, a generously sized swimming pool is surrounded by lawns, shrubs and olive trees, and makes a relaxing look-out point for fabulous views of forested hills. And all this is just 3km from shops in San Martino in Freddana, and 8km from Lucca’s excellent eateries.
