Apartment for 6 people in Lucca

The accommodation

You’ll find our “Puccini” in the Historic Centre, in front of the tree-lined circle of the urban walls.
On the second and final floor, the rooms of this beautiful "period" apartment open like a flower: the noble “Tessieri” pavements act as a union between the connecting rooms: the kitchen, the dining room and the living room for the hours shared together; three bedrooms and two bathrooms where you can relax. There is 120 sqm filled with light, and a beautiful view towards the gardens of the internal courtyard. It’s spectacular to open the windows in the Springtime and enjoy the pink colours of the trees in bloom... to walk downstairs and amongst the blooming Magnolia trees of the Street right at your doorstep... to walk on the walls of the city shaded by the “centuries old” trees of which the colours change season after season... will be a true pleasure!
