Villa Clarissa

Villa Clarissa sits within impressive grounds, just 5km from lovely Lucca. Traditional Italian interiors feature pastel coloured walls with grand chandeliers and ornate wooden furniture throughout the house. A large sitting room is decorate in pale yellow and blue with a baroque ceiling and wallpaper, while the dining room centrepiece is a long wooden table seating up to 16 for indoor suppers. An additional sitting room provides space to relax in front of the television, while a billiard room offers entertainment and further sitting in the form of luxurious velvet settees. The country style kitchen is well-equipped for cooking up a feast, which completes the ground floor.

Accommodation is split across two further floors upstairs. There are 10 bedrooms altogether, eight of which are en suite and a mixture of double and twin rooms. Each bedroom is decorated in a different pastel shade, with ornate wooden beds and matching wardrobes. Outside, there are two separate areas for guests to enjoy. The first is a large lawned garden encircle by tall trees, with a gazebo covering a long dining table for al fresco meals. The large private pool is in another picturesque part of the grounds, with comfortable sunbeds, umbrellas and a shaded seating area.  Closest amenities can be found just 5km away in Lucca, will Pisa is further afield yet within easy driving distance.
