In the 1700s, a Count created a haven in the hills that surround the ancient walled city of Lucca. Today that haven is an elegant and exclusive Tuscan villa immersed in a splendid parkland of ornamental ponds, antique fountains, courtyards, and a traditional Italian garden, sweetly fragranced by lemon and other flowering plants.

Villa Cardo, situated on a large estate in the hills surrounding Lucca, is conveniently located near attractions such as the city centre of Lucca, only four miles from the estate, Pisa and its famous tower, 12 miles from the estate, and the famous beach spot of Forte Dei Marmi, just 12 miles away.

The estate harmonizes its historical, noble heritage with modern luxuries, creating a timeless, classic aesthetic. The common living areas include a wine library with private collection of Tuscan wines, a billiard and cards room, a music room with log fireplace and a domed ceiling, a grand banquet room, a large, fully-equipped Tuscan kitchen, several comfortable lounges and living rooms, and a private gym.

Villa Cardo features 12 individually decorated bedrooms, which can accommodate up to 24 guests. The bedrooms are characterized by features typical of Tuscan villas, such as terracotta floors and wood-beamed ceilings, providing a warm atmosphere.

With original features and picturesque views over the hills of Lucca and the surrounding olive groves, this classic Tuscan villa offers tranquility, peace, and luxury. It is the perfect space for a gathering of family or friends, offering the aristocratic refinement of years' past with the comforts of modern luxury. It is a truly luxurious retreat.
