Big Private Garden, AC, Swimming Pool, Hot Tub, Huge Play Area, & Great Views

Casa Mennone is a magnificent holiday villa in an elevated, quiet, rural location near Lucca, Tuscany, with spectacular views across the plain and sun from dawn to dusk.

For centuries the farmers who lived here grew corn, grapes and olives on the surrounding land, for local aristocratic families.

The expansive garden has a circular saltwater pool, sun loungers, large children’s play area, ample shade, spa hot tub, barbecue and wood fired pizza oven.

The house is thoughtfully decorated, comfortably furnished and well equipped. Quiet air conditioning in every room, fast Wi-Fi, refrigerator with ice-maker, coffee machine, bar and a veranda for alfresco dining.

Laid out to accommodate large family groups, there’s plenty of space to socialise and many quiet areas to relax, read or play games.

Dating to circa 1600 the original, traditional farmhouse has been extended over the years. Our family carefully restored it and has let it as a holiday home since 1987. We continue making Villa Mennone even more sustainable. Recent eco-friendly upgrades include installing a low energy air conditioning system, solar panels for hot water and converting the swimming pool to saltwater.

Our family continues to oversee every aspect of our guests’ stay to ensure they have the best experience and most relaxing holiday possible.

Perfect for hosting extended groups of family and friends in maximum comfort, in a traditional Tuscan setting.

Villa Mennone is a truly memorable destination for your next holiday.

We love it! Way bigger than it looks in the photos!
The property is amazing! In reality it’s way bigger than what we imagined. The pool, the garden (soccer 4 vs 4 no problem), the view, the jacuzzi. The Pool gets cleaned and if you have questions you can just write via WhatsApp. Just everything was perfect. And with 16 people (18+) it was really affordable (in May). Would go there again!

Relaxing stay with gorgeous surroundings
The stay was excellent and a great retreat for our family! Mario’s communication & hospitality was excellent & the villa was very clean & even more beautiful than the photos. We had 4 generations of family and everyone enjoyed the experience. We meant to do more sightseeing, but frankly everyone wanted more time just being together as a family. The views were amazing & both the pool & hot tub were enjoyed. The family even enjoyed a competition of ping pong. One of everyone’s highlights was when local Chefs came & cooked an unbelievable 3 course dinner with appetizers & deserts - we highly recommend. We are very thankful to Mario for sharing their place so we could build many happy family memories.

Fantastic house and very hospitable owners!
Casa Mennone is a fantastic house in the mountains near Lucca. The view from the house is amazing and the garden and surroundings very beautiful with grapes and olive trees. The house itself is large and all bedrooms nicely furnished with antique furnitures. The house was clean and everything worked well. The owners Loretta and Guiseppe are very hospitable and generous. You will need a car to get around, but you can easily make a daytrip to Firenze/Florence, Lucca, Pisa and the coast. We can really recommend this house!

In paradiso again!!!
We spent the second time a Casa Mennone...this time in September with our family and our friends and we enjoyed it soooooo much, the wonderful house with the fabulous view to Lucca, the garden, the swimming pool and the whirlpool .....we never had such a paradise in Toscana before. This time we although made our first pizza in the big and very special pizza-oven - great! mointainbiking and walking, dancing and playing ping-pong kept us fit and the greatest moment was the invitation of our owners to their wonderful villa. Thankyou so much, dear Loretta, Giuseppe, Elisa & Mario for your hospitility !!! We are looking forward to our next holidays in your wonderful domicil!!!

AMAZING STAY!
15 of us came to celebrate my husbands 60th bday. The communication was unbelievably perfect. Mario the owner helped us before we got there. (Finding a Chef, transportation etc). Once there, Lisa ,the house manager, consistently answered many questions. She was so helpful as to where to eat, getting us a taxi. The property is SPECTACULAR! The pictures don’t do it justice.A trip of a lifetime. Hope to get back someday, couldn’t have been any better than it was. PERFETTO. Do not hesitate this beautiful property, memories that will last a life time. Grazie Mario and Lisa!

Beautiful large hillside farmhouse with incredible views
The large 9BD house perfectly accommodated 17pp (4 families ages 16-61). Home is large and immaculately clean with plenty indoor and outdoor space to relax and gather. Appreciated the individual air conditioning units in the bedrooms and gathering rooms which were perfect since we stayed during the end of July. The outdoor garden, large pool and jacuzzi were the highlight with views for miles. Sunrise and sunsets were amazing. The home is in the hillside and need to maneuver some narrow and windy roads, but worth it for the views and solitude of the home. Having a car is a must. We didn’t rent a car which was our mistake (no one wanted to drive) so we had to use a car service (and costs quickly added up) for grocery shopping and sightseeing to Lucca, Pisa, Florence and Cinque Terre. It was a trip of a lifetime and Casa Mennone was perfect.

A great place to stay.
There were 16 of us staying spanning the three generations of the family. The house was large enough for us not to get in each other’s way while at the same time allowing us to have a fantastic time in each other’s company. The children were hardly out of the pool!

Amazing huge house on the hills
The view is spectacular, the house itself is big for a family getaway, the house has everything. The bed that we stayed had a great mattress. Many bathrooms, kids toys and entertainment. Mario was very kind and also Lisa. We are so glad we find this house for a family reunion and hopefully we will be there next year!

A Tuscan Dream
We spent 3 weeks here and this property is amazing. It is the perfect blend of a true Tuscany experience with modern comforts. It was handicap accessible (wonderful for my 80 year old mom). The amazing pool, yard, hot tub was great for the kids. It has comfortable beds, great showers, AC, WIFI, modern stove and incredible views. We loved the nearby town of Lucca and the location is easy for day trips to Pisa, Florence and the coast. The host responded immediately to any questions and provided great information on the area, food recommendations, close by winery and even travel recommendations. Our family (12 people ranging from 6-80) loved it. We hope we could return someday!

Everything was perfect
We had a great stay at Casa Mennone! Highlight was the huge outdoor space with a really gorgeous view from the terace, pool and jacuzzi. We hardly left the premises due to Covid, but with all the possibilities in the garden, the six children in our party never got bored - and neither did the adults. :) Also, we regularly made use of the pizza / bread oven and bbq. Also indoors, nothing was missing. Everything was there you could possibly need for a large group. Communication was very easy. The host family was extremely nice and always quick to give a helpful answer. All in all: Great vacation, great house, absolutely recommendable!

It was a great week! We loved this house!
We were celebrating with our family the 45 years of marriage of my parents. The house and facilities were clean and great. The view, the pool, pizza oven and garden were our favorites. We have visited Lucca and Collodi during this week. As this house is in the wine area of Tuscany we visit one of these wine houses. The contact and communication with the family of the house was very nice, quick and enthousiastic. We had contact with Mario and Elisa. If we had questions, they were there! Thank you for make this week unfortgetable for my parents, but also to us all. We loved this place!!!
