About this property

Beautiful Eco-Friendly Farmhouse with gorgeous montain view!

At our farmhouse we have 2 units that we usually rent separately.
Here we are listing one of our Studio that can sleep 2 people and the price is for 2 people. This is a Studio that is organised also for hosting disable people, wheelchair users. So it is on the ground floor and it's a very large room with 3 windows and a door with glass, that has a double bed (or 2 single beds) and in a corner has a fully equipped kitchenette. We can add a single bed for a third person, may be a child, but you have to be aware that you will sleep all together. The bathroom is large enough as well as the shower that can be used by wheelchair users. Please look at property 1419100, that is our other Studio. So in total we can host 4 people ,adding an extra bed maximum 5 people. We have cots for little children so each Studio can host a baby in a cot.
Just in case I want to let you know the price of the second Studio, the separate Studio is exactly the same of this little unit.
We also suggest you to contact us before booking because we can offer a discount on longer rentals and we can offer you a better accomodation considering your needs !
Our small organic farm sits on a hill along Lucca’s beautiful northern countryside in the hamlet of Aquilea, with stunning views over the Valdottavo valley, the high peaks of the Apennines, and the National park in the distance. We produce our own olive oil, bake our own bread, make jams from our own fruit trees, prepare home-made yoghurt and classic Italian sauce from our own tomatoes, and grow a variety of vegetables.
Our solar powered and beautifully restored farmhouse has 2 comfortable, fully furnished apartments that will feel like home the moment you step inside! Each has its own entry on a lovely terrace where you can relax and enjoy outdoor dining, including pizza from a brick oven. At our above ground swimming pool, guests can enjoy sunbathing with an incredible view.


Our love and respect for the environment can be seen in our organic farm with free-range animals, olive groves, a vegetable garden, and fruit trees. We use solar panels for hot water, to help with the wood boiler heating system, and to heat the swimming pool. We chose an above ground, moveable swimming pool because it has less environmental impact. We have two gazebos near the pool with photovoltaic roofs.

Here a car is really necessary.

Driver service: If you don't feel like driving, the owner or one of her relatives can be your driver and guide: they can pick you up at the train station in Lucca or at the airport in Pisa or Florence, bring you to the farmhouse to get settled, help you to visit undiscovered surroundings and Tuscan beautiful towns. This kind of service has to be arranged in advance before your arrival, because at the last minute when you are here it can not be assured.

Cooking lessons and catering : You can learn how to make classic Italian dishes in our large country kitchen and enjoy your meal in our lovely dining room. The owner speaks excellent English and is a talented cook. You can choose the menu with her, deciding what you would like for your delightful cooking lesson.

If you do not feel like cooking, ( when possible) you can enjoy being catered authentic Tuscan dinners If you do not feel like cooking, you can enjoy being catered authentic Tuscan dinners (a full menu from starter till dessert) for €35 per head with excellent local wine included. If you'd like a lighter menu, for example only a main course and a second course with vegetable the cost can be EUR 25 (no starter, no dessert).

Italian language lessons : We can organize Italian language lessons upon request.
Car or driver, cooking lessons or catering, Italian lessons – the choice is yours. Join us for a true Tuscan vacation.

Warm Farm Get Away
If you are looking for a wonderful in the country experience, visit Lella on her olive farm, Agriturismo "Abbacca-là" Apartments near Lucca She embodied the heart of Italy in her hospitality. We had many great experiences of watching the sunset over the valley, cooking lessons, learning Italian and just relaxing. We chose the Lucca area as our anchor point. It is beautiful place to visit but also close to so many other places within an hour or so; wine tasting, Cinque Terra, marble quarries, small towns, beaches as well as Siena and Firenza. The accomodations are farmhouse motif and the hospitality is warm and welcoming. The road up is very winding, but keep going. You will get there.

Schönes altes Bauernhaus in herrlicher Landschaft
schöne, rustikale, kleine Ferienwohnung in altem Bauernhaus, in sehr ruhiger Lage. Gastgeber sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Ca. 20 Minuten Autofahrt über kurvige Straßen nach Lucca und zum nächsten Supermarkt.

Soggiorno autunnale
Il casale si raggiunge inerpicandosi su una bella stradina costeggiata da piante di ulivo. La proprietaria ci ha accolto con calore e gentilezza (ci ha offerto dolci appena sfornati)e ci ha fornito tutte le informazioni necessarie per il nostro soggiorno.L'appartamento era curato ,pulito e ben equipaggiato.Purtroppo erano giorni piovosi e non abbiamo potuto usufruire dello spazio esterno attrezzato.

About the host

My husband and I in the picture : we are in front of the facade where under the plaster we had found the date in which that part of the farmhouse had been built :1718 !

Why they chose this property

This had being been our dream, we wanted to move to live in the country, but not too far from Lucca where we were working.
In 1988, a few months after the birth of our oldest son, we bought this abandoned property and step by step we renovated the building and we started replacing olive trees. We moved here in 1994 and after a lot of works in 2005 we were ready with the rental units. So finally I could devote myself to this full-time job.

What makes this property unique

As soon as you arrive you immediately fall in love with the view of the mountains and the peaceful feeling that the view gives you. You can think to be really in a remote area, out and far from stressful life, while in 7 minutes you can reach Ponte a Moriano, that is the closest little town, where you can find everything you can need.
