Il Frantoio - The Coselli Collection

Hotel Overview

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.

  • On the first floor there is a fully equipped Tuscan kitchen with dining area, and a spacious lounge with sofas and armchairs, a music system and satellite TV and internet access.
  • On the second floor there are four bedrooms, each with its own brand-new ensuite bathroom.

For al fresco dining, a wrought-iron table and chairs with large umbrellas are placed on the lawns, allowing guests to dine while watching the sunset over the valley and Lucca beyond.
