Villa Pedone

To stay at Villa Pedone is to a have a glimpse of how nobility lived in Italy. The house is covered in art, the furniture is awesome and often pieces of art in itself, the garden, the surrounding neighborhood. Of corse the comfort is top quality, as it is the sleep, the shower, the amenities, the breakfast. As it is located 6km from Lucca, in a rural area where services are not available, Duccio makes clear to customers that the food and drinks (coffee, tea, fruits, cheese, etc) conveniently left by the dinning table are to be used as self service with no extra cost. Though perhaps a necessity given the location, one can not fail to notice how generous he is by offering quality snacks that can substitute a night meal. Duccio, by the way is a treat in itself. A gentleman, and kind soul, lovenly caring for the family property transformed in this B&B, helped us with cancelling the reservation for one night, as well finding us an alternative place to stay by Lucca's train station, a necessity due to our ill planned logistics to return the car at Pisa and spend another night at Pedone. He spent his time helping us out against his own business and gain. This is rare. As Villa Pedone is a rare experience in anyone's Tuscany experience.

Stayed for 5 nights . Villa is in beautiful surroundings . Made to feel very welcome from the start . Ate there 3 evenings the food and service was superb . Loved the tea and coffee available all day . Couldn’t fault the place . Super find !

We spent 3 nights here after Xmas. The rooms are spacious, warm and very comfortable. The whole villa is beautiful with sitting areas you can relax in and read a book. Breakfast is traditional Italian style and coffee and tea are available all day. There is even a bar with n honesty system - we did not use this. Villa Pedone is set in the hills just a short drive out of Lucca. The location is peaceful, pretty and serene. The host was friendly and offered useful advice on visiting Lucca and local restaurants.
