Frommer's Review
Fitted into the olive-blanketed hills where Lucca's valley rises to Le Pizzorne mountains, the agriturismo of Fattoria Maionchi offers you the chance to stay in an outbuilding of a 17th-century farming estate -- with concessions to modernity such as fully outfitted kitchens and a pool overlooking the grapevines. A motley assortment of antiques acquired over the centuries are scattered throughout the spacious multifloor apartments, but the overall scheme manages to remain rustic. Recent renovations, such as those to the old mill, have not only doubled the accommodations, but are also more modern in appearance. The friendly owners will show you their cellars and let you sample their wine -- good enough to be the house red of Lucca's top restaurant, La Buca di Sant'Antonio . A stay here (must be at least a week) makes a perfect escape in the country; you're close enough for easy excursions into Lucca (15 min. by car; 16€/$21 by taxi) as well as trips into the Garfagnana mountains.
Facilities:
Restaurant (Fri, Sat dinner, Sun lunch); 2 outdoor pools (1 private to a single apartment); free bikes; children's center; babysitting
