Four Villa Estates: Lucca Hills
Special Feature: Legally Valid Civil Ceremony can be held outside the Villa.
For those seeking to have their accommodation, ceremony, and reception site all on the same grounds, this expansive Lucca estate, dominating one of the most beautiful valleys in all of the Lucchesia, truly fits the bill. Four lovingly restored grand villas and one intimate hamlet rented as a bed and breakfast spread over 2 hectares of vineyards, olive groves and oak trees comprise Four Villa Estates. Each villa has its own private swimming pool with a fabulous view of the surrounding countryside. The property is under a 15 minute drive to downtown historic Lucca and just a 30 minute drive to Pisa airport.
The bed and breakfast, elegantly restored and furnished with a rustic chic charm, can accommodate up to 34 people and has use of a shared swimming pool. There are also four larger villas that sleep from 10 to 14 people per villa. The total rental capacity of the estate is 80 people. This venue is suitable for both large and small weddings.
Four Villa Estates is part of a larger working farm that produces some of the best Lucca olive oil and wine in the region. Tours of the farm and tastings can be arranged through the owner as a fun way to begin your wedding week and often a nice ice breaker for recently arrived guests.
A rare and very attractive feature of this villa is that they have a full kitchen available to cater receptions. This allows them to provide great Tuscan wedding menus incorporating, of course, their locally grown oil and wine, while keeping the pricing for the service very reasonable. All of the food is done in house in their kitchen as opposed to relying on an external caterer that must bring his own kitchen and equipment, thus keeping costs relatively low, even for small weddings.
A final feature worth mentioning: it is possible to have a legally valid civil ceremony on the grounds of the estate. Those wishing to keep the transportation requirements of their guests at a minimum will truly appreciate the flexibility that Four Villa Estates offers.
