Villa Buggia

Nestled amidst the rolling hills of Tuscany, Villa Buggia exudes an inviting warmth and familial charm that immediately envelops guests in a sense of belonging. Situated between the historic cities of Lucca and Florence, this lovingly restored villa offers the perfect blend of convenience and serenity, with vibrant villages just a stone's throw away and breathtaking natural beauty at every turn.

Step through the doors of Villa Buggia, and you are greeted by elegant and welcoming interiors. The main villa and its annexe, fully renovated in 2021, boast a homely ambience that seamlessly marries traditional Tuscan design with modern comforts. From the moment you enter, it is evident that every detail has been thoughtfully considered, reflecting the heartfelt dedication of the family who calls this place home.

The heart of the villa is undoubtedly its fully serviced kitchen, a bustling hub where culinary delights are prepared with love and shared among family and friends. The kitchen is equipped with all the essentials, including a spacious dining area and cosy seating nooks.

Each of the six double bedrooms is a sanctuary in its own right, offering a tranquil retreat after a day of exploration. With ensuite bathrooms and plush furnishings, they invite guests to unwind and recharge.

But it is outside where Villa Buggia truly comes alive. The sprawling garden, dotted with ancient olive trees and a thriving vineyard, beckons guests to embrace the slower pace of life and reconnect with nature. Children play freely amidst the verdant landscape while adults gather for leisurely meals under the shade of the pergola. The swimming pool is a shimmering oasis of cool water. Surrounded by sun loungers and umbrellas, it is the perfect spot to soak up the Tuscan sun.

Whether exploring the nearby villages, sampling the family's renowned olive oil, or simply basking in the warmth of Italian hospitality, Villa Buggia offers a truly authentic Tuscan experience that's as enriching as it is unforgettable.  

Nestled in the heart of Tuscany, Villa Buggia enjoys a prime location between the historic cities of Lucca and Florence, making it an ideal holiday destination for those seeking the perfect balance between cultural immersion and rural tranquillity. Situated just a scenic drive away from bustling villages, guests can easily explore local markets, charming boutiques, and authentic eateries, immersing themselves in the rich tapestry of Tuscan life.

Additionally, the villa is a few minutes drive from the nearest restaurants and bars, ensuring convenience without sacrificing the peaceful ambience of the countryside. With Florence a mere thirty-minute drive away and Lucca just twenty, Villa Buggia is a convenient base for day trips to iconic landmarks, world-renowned museums, and architectural marvels.

Whether wandering through medieval streets or lounging amidst vineyards, guests at Villa Buggia will discover the timeless allure of Tuscany.
