The Country Villa of a Noble Luccan Family

Villa Sardi is located on the Brancoleria hills 10 km from the historic center of Lucca.

The Sardi family was one of the most important families of Lucca, so much so that it influenced the political and social life of Lucca for several centuries. They were particularly active, from the 16th to the 19th century, for their social life trade abroad, their standard of living and their charitable activity.

The construction dates back to the end of the 15th century and was acquired by Count Sardi at the beginning of the 16th century. In the 18th century, Villa Sardi, which was the oldest property of the family, was partly modified through the insertion of an external staircase, a loggia, a turret with clock and a refined Italian garden.

Villa Sardi is currently owned, through female inheritance, by the Count of Nigra and is active as a luxury boutique hotel.
