A glorious stone farmhouse in the hills near Lucca, Quaranta lies in a tiny, hillside hamlet that overlooks a vast swath of rolling, green hills. With spacious living and dining areas on the ground floor, the building has been divided into seven comfortable and virtually self-sufficient suites – an ideal configuration for a large group with a variety of agendas. The traditional beamed ceilings and terracotta floors are matched with comfortable contemporary furnishings, with lovely murals decorating some of the walls. The pool is set above the house to capture the best views from its broad tiled terrace, and seating areas are dotted around the garden for those in need of a quiet moment in the sunshine. A restored barn in the garden offers an outdoor kitchen and a games room with a ping-pong table.
