Apartments in Farmhouse: Aquilea 1495
Description
Our small organic farm sits on a hill along Lucca's beautiful northern
countryside in the hamlet of Aquilea, with stunning views over the
Valdottavo
valley, the high peaks of the Appenines and the national park in
the distance.
It's the ideal place to relax and to go for lovely walks both on foot and by
bike. It's therefore ideal for families and or small groups of friends in
love with nature with the mountain bike or for motorbikers looking for peace
and quiet. We produce our own olive oil and chestnut flour, bake our own bread, make
jams from our own fruit trees and classic Italian sauce from our own
tomatoes, and grow a variety of vegetables. Our solar powered (well, some
electric!) farmhouse has two comfortable, fully furnished apartments that
will feel like home the moment you step inside! Each has its own entry on a
lovely terrace where you can relax and enjoy outdoor dining, including pizza
from a brick oven. At our above ground swimming pool, guests can enjoy
sunbathing with an incredible view. Our love and respect for the environment can be seen in our organic farm
with free range animals, olive groves, vegetable garden and fruit trees, as
well as our beautifully restored farmhouse and apartments. We use solar
panels for hot water and to help with the wood boiler heating system. We
chose an above ground, moveable swimming pool that has less environmental
impact, which is also heated by solar panels. The poolside gazebo has a
photovoltaic roof.
If you like, we can pick you up at the train station in Lucca, bring you to
the farmhouse to get settled, then loan you a car for exploring the Tuscan
countryside. You can learn how to cook classic Italian dishes and, if you do
not feel like cooking, enjoy being served delicious catered meals. You can
even learn the Italian language. The choice is yours. The owner speaks excellent English and will cook authentic Tuscan dinners
for euro 25 per head. For an extra euro 35 per head, guests can enjoy a delightful
cooking lesson. You will take your lesson in our own, large country kitchen
and enjoy your meal in our lovely dining room.
Lucca with its monuments and its famous walls, is only 20 minutes away. The
famous Ville Lucchesi with their extraordinary parks can be reached in about
15 minutes. Within a few kilometers the Ponte del Diavolo, in Borgo a
Mozzano, the Spa in Bagni di Lucca, Barga with its beautiful cathedral.
