Our View
We love the peaceful gardens surrounded by ancient olive groves, where you can unwind by the floodlit pool while taking in stunning valley views stretching all the way to Lucca’s medieval towers.
Il Frantoio is a beautifully restored 16th-century olive press set amidst terraced olive groves near Lucca. Designed for up to eight guests, it offers four individually styled double bedrooms, each with an en-suite bathroom, and spacious reception rooms including a traditional Tuscan kitchen and comfortable lounge.
Outside, the peaceful gardens surround a floodlit swimming pool, with breathtaking valley views stretching across to Lucca’s medieval towers – the perfect place to relax and enjoy the timeless beauty of Tuscany.
