I looked far and wide for a place to stay that would fit into my idea of Tuscany. When I saw this cottage, I loved how it was Tuscan but also very modern and knew we had to stay here. It is so tastefully decorated and is exactly as pictured. The location is in a smaller town about half hour train ride from Lucca and one hour train ride from Florence. We stayed here as a base for exploring Lucca and Florence, then moved on to a road trip of the rest of Tuscany. We had a car, but we could have easily gotten around by foot and train since the station is about a 10 minute walk from the cottage. Everything was very clean, and there were a lot of useful amenities (fully stocked kitchen, towels, robe, washer, water, etc.). We enjoyed our stay and would recommend it for a modern Tuscan stay!
