4 Bedroom Villa in Lucca

Savor dreamy, unforgettable days among the romantic gardens and views of Villa Dondolino, relax on elegant loungers in the olive grove and bathing in the swimming pool. In the afternoon, make your own grillade and relish it alfresco. Then sip digestivi on the veranda.
The villa's interior includes multiple living salons with beautiful period furnishings and paint finishes. Prepare delicious Italian meals in the fully equipped kitchen, featuring modern appliances and a lovely veranda with breakfast table, and gather in the gorgeous formal dining rooms for festive feasts.
Glorious walks abound from your front door leading to hilltop views of high mountain ranges and glimpses of the glistening Mediterranean. Explore nearby ancient churches and the well-preserved medieval hamlets around, once a resting point for weary pilgrims travelling the Via Francigena, the famous pilgrim route that connected Northern Europe to Rome and then on to the Holy Land.
Villa Dondolino enjoys an ideal location on the surrounding hills A 15 mins drive brings you to Lucca—a medieval gem of a town famed for its fortified city walls, historic architecture and monuments as well of course for its wine production. Its narrow streets and splendid squares are filled with intriguing shops, enticing cafes and great restaurants. Take a bicycle ride on the battlements or set aside a few hours to tour a local vineyard and taste your way to a new favourite wine. On a day trip away from your rural retreat, stroll along the sandy beaches or take a swim in the warm waters on the bustling Versillian Riviera just 25 mins away; it’s a unique Italian seaside experience with bathing establishments stretching for miles along the sandy shores from vibrant Viareggio to sophisticated Forte dei Marmi. Florence, Pisa, Siena, Volterra, San Gimignano, Montecatini Terme, the fishing villages of the Cinque Terre, the spectacular mountains of the Garfagnana and many other highlights are all within easy reach.

Summary: We recently stayed at Villa Donaldino and overall had a very enjoyable holiday. The villa itself was clean and spacious, with large, well-appointed bedrooms and spotless, functional bathrooms. The gardens were lovely, featuring olive trees and shaded areas perfect for relaxing, and the pool was excellent—easy to keep clean despite a few insects.However, future guests should be aware that the villa sits at the top of a very long, winding, and quite narrow road, taking around eight minutes to climb by car. A car is absolutely essential, as there are no shops or restaurants within walking distance, and every outing requires navigating this road.During our stay, there were several mornings disturbed by local neighbours using garden trimmers and other motorised tools, which we did have to complain about. The villa has a recycling system, but the lack of sufficient bin bags led to organic waste odours between collections.The outdoor dining table, although lovely, doesn’t comfortably seat eight as advertised—the positioning of the legs makes it awkward for more than six. While the bedrooms were spacious, the bedding and pillows weren’t of the highest quality. The kitchen was a particular disappointment: poorly organised and equipped with low-quality utensils and cutlery, which felt surprising given the premium price of the villa.That said, Villa Donaldino is well located for visiting Lucca, which is about a 20-minute drive away and was a highlight of our trip
