About this villa rental
VILLA IL TINAIO Farmhouse is a private country villa nestled among acres of vineyards and olive groves halfway between Lucca and Capannori, on the hills of Sant’Andrea in Caprile where it lies the beautiful wine country of Colline Lucchesi. Characterised by rolling hills and sweeping olive groves, this lush landscape promises exceptional views
This former hayloft to the main villa where the owner lives has been totally transformed into a luxurious yet relaxed country home by an interior decorator.
Built in the 16th century, VILLA IL TINAIO was once a hunting lodge belonging to the Guinigi family. Having been in the possession of the current owner’s family for 200 years, the dedication to the upkeep and restoration of the house is evident.
There are two large, comfortable indoor living rooms on separate floors along with a beautiful summer sitting area under a pergola that runs the entire length of the house overlooking the pool area. With breath-taking views and gentle summer breezes, the pergola is the ideal shaded spot for friends and family to gather for leisurely meals, conversations or drinks.
The villa has been designed with ample space to provide quiet, memorable moments. Leading off the entrance hall on the spacious ground floor is the living room with its large, open fireplace. The adjacent dining room and kitchen open onto the south-facing, wisteria-covered shaded pergola. Walk down the stone steps to the pool with a fragrant landscaped garden that offers the perfect place to relax and cool down on a Tuscan summer’s day.
On the ground floor there is a master bedroom with ensuite bathroom with shower, a second bedroom with two twin beds with a second bathroom with shower.
Up on the first floor there are a third and a fourth master bedrooms with a third bathroom with tub.
This villa, with its complementary mix of antique and contemporary furniture, old handmade terracotta tiles and beautiful gardens, along with all the latest comforts such as sat tv, air conditioning in each room and a strong WIFI connection makes it a recommended setting from which the many gems of Tuscany can be enjoyed.
The pool is open from April 1st to Oct 31st.
Heating if used is charged extra according to consumption.

The Villa is just stunning, so beautiful. We had such a wonderful holiday and Daniela was so helpful. You definitely need a car to be able to appreciate the beautiful area and what it has to offer. We loved it thank you, wonderful memories made x
I would suggest a welcome pack on arrival with just some basic local products. We have had this before at other Villas and was very welcoming.

The villa was big enough for 4 different families, it was located with a nice view over the mountains and hills, air conditioning functioned well in all rooms, the pool was nice and refreshing, the facilities to make your own meals were good, and the two
chefs who made the anniversary dinner were excellent too! A short drive and you could reach the old town Luca and all the castles and vineyards nearby
Nothing! We liked it all very much

Such a beautiful property, excellently presented, and in a wonderful landscape. We had a wonderful time and would highly recommend Villa Il Tinaio.
The kitchen sink has great character but does not drain well.

Stayed there as a big family and it was the perfect hub to explore the surroundings of Tuscany. Not far from Florence, Pisa and Cinque Terre - beautiful views and peaceful at night. The house itself was in superb condition and the host was responsive and helpful.

The villa was internally beautiful as were the garden and pool areas.
Equally fantastic were the spectacular views across the valley and over looking Lucca
Th Villa h0st/ manager Daniiela was truly amazing .Her helpfulness and great communications made the experience completely stress free.The team at Lucca villas also were exceptionally helpful ( Simona and IIaria) .We would highly recommend this villa but also the company .We have already started to browse villa options for later in the year.

I can’t say enough about this Villa! It is absolutely stunning inside and the view and location are just what you would dream of in Tuscany. Our family of six was very comfortable. We had room to spare. The hosts were accommodating with check in and check out. The showers were warm and good pressure. It is just as beautiful as in the pictures! You won’t be disappointed.

We had the most magical holiday at this wonderful villa. Everything from the location to the facilities were fantastic and we would return in a heartbeat! It was the perfect location for two important family birthdays and an engagement.
Cristina (who checked us in) was so lovely and helpful. If you're arriving late in the day, I really recommend going via Cristina to arrange groceries so you have food at the villa when you arrive.
The pool area is just beautiful and very private, the pool is very well maintained and cleaned regularly, the sunbeds comfortable!
Due to the huge cost increase of hire cars (with 6 guests) following the pandemic, we decided to trust in local transport and it did not fail us! Highly recommend using the app 'AppTaxi' which links to a local taxi firm (you may need to just adjust the pick-up location to the main road and walk from the villa to this point) we had some fantastic local taxi drivers and this was still a much cheaper option to get in and out of Lucca than a large hire car vehicle, though hopefully the costs will settle down as the world finds its feet again.
We are now planning a return to Lucca, but this time will need a bigger villa as many other family members want to come with us next time! Would 100% stay here again though, if it was a smaller group of us again.

Wir haben tolle zwei Wochen in der VILLA IL TINAIO verbracht. Die Unterkunft liegt etwas ausserhalb von Lucca an toller Lage zwischen Olivenbäumen. Wer etwas Ruhe braucht und den Tourismuslärm satt hat ist hier richtig. Die Villa hat alles was man braucht. Viel Platz und Grünfläche zum Spielen und einen tollen Pool zum abkühlen. Die Terrasse ist der perfekt Ort um den Tag zu Starten und Abends einfach nur zu geniessen. Die Beschreibung und Bilder entsprechen dem was wir angetroffen haben. Toll eingerichtete toskanische Stimmung in jedem Zimmer. Tagesausflüge auf Pisa oder Florenz sind mit dem Auto gut erreichbar. Die Villa empfehlen wir auf jedenfalls und bedanken uns für die unkomplizierten zwei Wochen.
5.0 / 5.0
The location is just amazing, lost in the Olive tree fields, very quiet and relaxing area and still close to Lucca or Forte Dei Marmi.
Very comfortable house with proper equipment and very good quality beds, bath/shower room.
The garden and the separate area for the pool are very nicely maintained and flowered.
The owner is very welcoming !!!
Lovely location
Kitchen is very small, nothing you can change, but to have a cupboard with the equipment in it would be great (pots, pans, forks and knifes,...). Not easy with everything in the living room.
The only very small details you could improve would be to supply more kitchen towels, one is not enough and the table cloth is really old and damaged, to have 2 would be nicer.
Shower towels were OK as we were only 4, otherwise 2 per person would be better in this kind of nice villa.
Even Cristina was very helpful, it would be great to create a book with the services in area (supermarket, butcher, bakery, cleaning services, a few restaurants...)
5.0 / 5.0
This is a perfect location to spend some time with good friends: a beautiful house, nicely furnished, very clean, wonderful pool and a great lounge area on the terrace. The description of the house and the property was very accurate and the communication with the owners before and during our stay was perfect. The owners were very friendly and helpful. We will come back for sure!
