Lucca farm rentals

Wilma’s apartment is everything one could ask for. It was everything we could have asked for and more . In our 10 night stay we felt like it was our home. It’s beautifully furnished , very well supplied with breakfast condiments through to basics . Michele, Wilma’s hubby, very generously picked up from the train station and chauffeured us to the apartment. We then met up with Wilma who went through all we needed to know about the apartment and to top it off we were gifted a bottle of wine and some Italian biscuits . The location is great because it’s close to everything. A lovely piazza to look out onto, a couple of minutes walk from the wall and the main street of Lucca. With double glazed windows, the apartment is very quite and peaceful. All in all, we would definitely recommend Wilma’s apartment. As far as we’re concerned, it’s perfect. Thank you Wilma for making our experience in Lucca that much more memorable.

Good points: weather permitting the rear verandah is superb for outdoor dining with a fantastic view overlooking Lucca. Bedroom accommodation size was good and pleasantly decorated. Upstairs bedroom windows equipped with flyscreens and shutters. The kitchen and laundry was adequate for small numbers. The water spring at the bottom of the hill was refreshing and provided many a bottle of fresh water. The Bad: on arrival and departure luggage transfers was possible via a deteriorated steep pathway or many stairs through an adjoining private property which proved difficult. Daily movements through neighbours property felt uncomfortable and intrusive. The internal living area in the property is too small for the suggested number of people to be comfortably accommodated. The ugly: In our opinion driving on the access road to the property after dark is not safe and prohibited our movement in the evenings. The dishwasher filter was extremely dirty and was in need of a good clean. The mould around the shower recess was given a good clean together with the tiles on the kitchen bench as they were mouldy and unhygenic. The toilet brushes require replacing.
