Once an olive press used by villagers to press their yearly harvest, Il Frantoio is surrounded by beautiful terraced olive groves. Its recent renovation has converted this charming structure into a comfortable home offering views across the swimming pool and down the valley towards the medieval walled town of Lucca.
Inside, Il Frantoio has maintained its rustic character, with original terra-cotta tiles and wooden beamed ceilings throughout.
