From the owner

Enjoy the magic of living in a historic house, and in the very heart of Tuscany.

Villa Di Lupo Parra opens its doors and welcomes you in an incomparable atmosphere of art and nature.

The apartment named " Three centuries of art" is on the first floor of the villa; you will get there through a large, magnificent staircase, which features amazing frescoes on the walls and the ceiling. The rooms are large, peaceful, comfortable, bright, smartly furnished with precious antiques, and with a beautiful view. . The apartment is composed of a large living room, a double bedroom, a kitchen and a bathroom. Two additional single beds can be provided in the living room. Sky channels are available.

This apartment is the most peculiar in the house as it is an extraordinary witness of the evolution of taste in fine arts over the centuries. During a recent restoration we have found on the walls of the living room, under some layers of common paint, three different frescoes one over the other, which date respectively from 18th, 19th and 20th century, and we have kept all of them in view, so you can see how the room has changed its look over the time.The frescoes featured in the bedroom depict the symbols of arts (music, architecture, sculpture and painting). The apartment is provided with a piano and its atmosphere is perfect to make art lovers feel at home and enjoy their stay here.

The apartment and its equipment are accurately cleaned and sanitized before any check-in and after any check-out. The gap between a check-out and a new check-in is at least 24 hours so that the rooms can be aired a whole day according to health authorities' anti-Covid recommendations.

Thanks to the considerable indoors and outdoors space social distancing and safety requirements are fulfilled.

A beautiful garden of 2.7 acres surrounds the villa, where it is nice to stay in the shade of magnificent old-age trees.

There is everything for a relaxing holiday of culture and good life, far from crowds and in a true noble Italian villa.

Bicycles are available for guests, free of charge.

Located just 2 minutes from the motorway exit, the property is the ideal base for your art itineraries to Pisa, Lucca, Firenze, Volterra, San Gimignano, and Siena.

Shops, restaurants and cafés are within walking distance, as well as a bus stop and a train station with direct trains for Pisa and Florence, and connections for the main cities of Tuscany.

The sea is not far, with beautiful beaches in Tirrenia (just 20 minutes away by car) and in Viareggio (30 minutes), as well as picturesque bays with cliffs and beaches near Livorno.

In November and December do not miss the famous local white truffles, as well as excellent wines and pure olive oil from local producers.
