Casa Verde

The house has green shutters can be seen as you approach the village from the road below, sitting aloof among the chestnut trees of the mighty hillside above. The house has an old fashioned charm with many old stone and wood features, echoing two centuries of habitation and family life.

Casa Verde is at Vellano (near Lucca) a hillside village sitting grandly in the high narrow wooded valley above the town of Pescia in Tuscany.

The house has recently been restored with modern services. The house has a fantastic view of Vellano and its terraces rise above its old garden where we grow many types of fruit and vegetables for our guests. Visit us and discover a quiet, gentle and friendly part of Tuscany close to all the glorious attractions of the Renaissance.

Casa Verde sleeps up to 6 in 3 bedrooms with two bathrooms and is spacious and comfortable with panoramic views over Tuscan landscapes. There is a terrace with garden furniture suitable for dining, reading and sun bathing. A swimming pool is only 10 minutes drive away.

The village of Collodi is 20 minutes away. Collodi is the home of Pinocchio who is a fictional character that first appeared in 1883, in The Adventures of Pinocchio by Carlo Collodi

A few kilometers to the east of the Villa Mansi is the Villa Torrigiani, another sumptuous country house, originally dating from the 16th century but remodeled in Baroque style. It has a beautiful park.
