About this cottage rental
The house has all modern conveniences whilst maintaining its original Tuscan style and charm. There are 2 bedrooms with bathrooms en suite on the lower floor with access directly into the garden. Upstairs there is a very light spacious sitting/dining room with a characteristic Tuscan fireplace. The kitchen is well equipped with a lovely picture window looking out to the surrounding hills. Leading out of the kitchen is a terrace for al fresco eating.
There is mosquito netting.
Podere Consani is a group of old houses on the top of a small hill - it lies in an idyllic setting amongst well-tended natural gardens,(lavender, roses, lemons and herbs) that lead into the adjacent olive groves, vineyard & woodland, in the hills between Lucca and the coast. The house shares a swimming pool with another property in the garden - this is also possible to be rented if you are a bigger group (See property 75096 Casa Cherubino - sleeps 6/7).
The owners take great care to ensure guests are happy during their stay whilst respecting their privacy. They produce their own wine and olive oil.
Nature-lovers,painters and walkers alike cannot fail to enjoy the wonderful surroundings and lovely views and although Podere Consani is set in this oasis of peace, it is however only 15 minutes before the majestic walls of Lucca come into sight.
There is the possibility to have cooking lessons or have a meal cooked for you in the house.
It is also possible to have a variety of massages at the house or in the garden.
We can organize for you to rent bikes to tour the area or to be taken on a tour.

10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Oct 2025
The villa was lovely, equipped well for cooking and quintessentially Tuscan. The host was super friendly, accessible,quickly replied to questions, and provided very helpful sightseeing tips for places to see. The pool was very welcome after a day of sightseeing. Parking was safe but very tight due to narrow drive and limited spaces. The location was very remote and the bumpy road up is not paved the entire way, has some switchbacks and one way spots, so you need an appropriate vehicle. No access to restaurants without a drive. Washing machine was in a basement under the villa with access to outside clothes line. The one hairdryer in the house did not work, except in the kitchen due to plug issues. The villa is tranquil but very rural. Loved the daily visit of the owners dog Nepo who adopted us. We had a good time during our week there.

This stay was idyllic and everything that was promised. Privacy, serenity and beautiful surroundings. Loads to do in the area and off the beaten track enough to have a sanctuary from tourism. Susan was the hostess with the mostess. Always there for suggestions, but never intruding. Her family are quintessential Italian and we loved hearing her grandchildren calling each other across the garden, hearing the neigh of the horses and next doors donkey in the distance. If you like some solitude with your surroundings this is the place for you. We will be back.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Oct 2024
We thoroughly enjoyed our week long stay at Podere Consani despite the weather not always being cooperative during our stay.
The location was very quiet and had beautiful views. It was only a 12 to15 min. drive to the centre of Lucca.
Susan was prompt at communication and was attentive to any needs we had on our visit.
We enjoyed being able to see the olives being harvested.
Grazie Susan!
5.0 / 10.0·Oct 2021
Perfect place to stay and relax but also be flexible and close to major touristic sites and beaches within 30-60 minutes drive. Susan and her family gave us a warm welcome, took care of all our questions and requests and had good recommendations for all our activities. We enjoyed the stay and wold recommend this to everybody with a car/ moto who seeks silence, rest and great hospitality without being stuck in the middle of nowhere but rather be close to Italian life (Lucca, Pisa, Florence and Viareggio) also.
