About this property

Beautiful Eco-Friendly Farmhouse:Cooking Lessons, Meals, Driver, and More !

Farmhouse, little apartment, Studio.

This Studio is about 35 mq, has a fully equipped kitchenette, a separate double bedroom and a bath with shower.
Outside, in front of the kitchenette the Studio has its own space with table and chairs under a gazebo, where you can eat or relax in the shade.
We also suggest you to contact us before booking because we can offer a discount on longer rentals!
We have 2 Studios so if you are 4 people you can contact us and ask for renting both units though the 2 units cannot be adjoined!
We are happy to help you if you need a driver or if you are interested in cooking classes or in meal, but please let us know in advance about it because these are services not always available.
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 Apennines, and the National park of Apuan Alps in the distance. We produce our own olive oil, bake our own bread, make jams from our own fruit trees, prepare home-made yoghurt and classic Italian sauce from our own tomatoes, and grow a variety of vegetables.
Our solar powered and beautifully restored farmhouse has 2 comfortable, fully furnished Studios 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. At our above ground swimming pool and a whirpool where guests can enjoy sunbathing with an incredible view. You can look at the property Homeaway ID 108278 that is where we list the Studio because you can rent just one apartment or you can rent 2 apartments if you are coming with friends or relatives
Our love and respect for the environment can be seen in our organic farm with free-range animals, olive groves, a vegetable garden, and fruit trees. We use solar panels for hot water, to help with the wood boiler heating system.
We chose an above ground, moveable swimming pool because it has less environmental impact. We have two gazebos near the pool with photovoltaic roofs.
Here a car is really necessary.
Driver service: If you don't feel like driving, the owner or one of her relatives can be your driver and guide: they can pick you up at the train station in Lucca or at the airport in Pisa or Florence, bring you to the farmhouse to get settled, help you to visit undiscovered surroundings and Tuscan beautiful towns.
Cooking lessons and catering : You can learn how to make classic Italian dishes in our large country kitchen and enjoy your meal in our lovely dining room. The owner speaks excellent English and is a talented cook. You can choose the menu with her, deciding what you would like for your delightful cooking lesson. If you do not feel like cooking, ( when possible) you can enjoy being catered authentic Tuscan dinners If you do not feel like cooking, you can enjoy being catered authentic Tuscan dinners (a full menu from starter till dessert) for €35 per head with excellent local wine included. If you'd like a lighter menu, for example only a main course and a second course with vegetable the cost can be EUR 25 (no starter, no dessert).

Wonderful experience at this farmhouse
If you want an experience that will provide you with how local residents live in this area, this would be a wonderful opportunity. The farmhouse is quaint, well supplied for making meals, comfortable, and the views are stunning. You can walk to the nearby village and get staples, cheese, fruit, and bread and meet the owners. We highly recommend this experience. Add cooking classes with Lella, and you will learn many Italian techniques in her kitchen.
