Villa with Private Pool on the Lucca Hills in S. Andrea di Compito
Villa Matilde is a superb farmhouse in the medieval hamlet of S. Andrea di Compito, south of Lucca. With its stone facades set amid cypress trees, colourful gardens, and majestic vistas, the villa evokes the quintessential character of antique Tuscany. Beautifully restored and renovated interiors provide a comfortable vacation home infused with rustic charm, lovely living and dining areas both in the main villa and in the adjacent hayloft.
Built gracefully into the hills at just 10 mins from Lucca, the villa's intimate terraces and gardens beckon you into the Tuscan sun. Plunge into the swimming pool and relax on lounge chairs beneath the blue sky at the top of the hill. Withdraw into the shaded gazebo for cool drinks and delectable lunches from the well-appointed indoor kitchen. In the evening, gather in the veranda adjoining the villa's dining room, relishing local wine and alfresco dinners as the sun sets over Lucca just over the antique bell tower in the garden which dates back to 1200s.
French doors imbue the home's interiors with gentle summer breezes and exquisite light. The décor is a lovely mélange of period pieces and modern artwork, forming an ambiance at once elegant and welcoming. Heating and air conditioning keep you comfortable in all seasons.
In the main house, the master bedroom features a double large size bed and a second bedroom with a double French size bed along with two bathrooms. A fully equipped kitchen, a living room and a dining room completes the main house. The adjacent hayloft features a veranda/living room with grand glass doors, another dining room, a laundry room with washing machine and clothes dryer, a bathroom and upstairs panoramic bedroom with glass all around with a large double bed.
Villa Matilde is just a two-minute walk into the ancient hamlet of S. Andrea di Compito known for its architectural beauty and for the antique gardens hosting majestic Japanese Camellia trees brought in the gardens of the local villas in the 18th century directly from Asia. Two restaurants are located close by (walking distance) as well as a baker and a grocery store selling local food. More shops, restaurants, supermarkets, groceries, ice cream shops and pizzerias are located within 5 minutes by car.

Hands Down the Most Magical Place I Have Ever Stayed
So not to tear up writing this review, I will simply copy what I wrote in the guest book...
17/4/2022
We are equal parts hearts full and cup runneth over, while also heartbroken at the very same time with thoughts of leaving tomorrow.
When we arrived at Villa Matilde after two weeks in country, we knew we had left the best for last...but then our expectations and dreams were even surpassed! I lost count of how many times I uttered "is this even real?"
I will dream of this place until I return, my belle Toscana! You have my heart!
Grazie mille un milione di volte!
(We traveled as two adults and two teen boys)
IF I HAD TO think of anything to make this spot more magical...maybe a swing.
