Hospitality that comes from the heart
Between the hills that stretch from Lucca to Florence, in the timeless village of Buggiano Castello, lies a place where hospitality still feels personal. Villa Sermolli is a historic residence where every detail tells a story, and every guest is welcomed with warmth, care and authenticity.
More than a vacation — a real experience
Staying at Villa Sermolli means experiencing Tuscany with honesty and depth. There’s no cold front desk or impersonal buffet. Here, guests are welcomed by name, their needs are listened to, and stories, recipes and local secrets are shared. Hospitality here is about sincerity and simplicity.
Rooms with soul
Each room at the villa is unique — with antique furnishings, restored frescoes, and views of the garden or village. Nothing is standardized. Those who choose Villa Sermolli embrace authenticity, charm and the beauty of imperfection.
Slow mornings, intimate evenings
The day begins with a leisurely breakfast: fresh bread, homemade jams, seasonal fruit and pastries from the villa’s own kitchen. You can enjoy it in the garden, on the terrace or in one of the frescoed halls. In the evening, a private Tuscan dinner can be arranged on request.
Local insights and hidden corners
Everyone at Villa Sermolli knows the territory and loves to share it. Guests receive personalized tips — from scenic trails through olive groves to artisan shops, hidden chapels, and secret gardens. The experience feels curated, not scripted.
Tuscan hospitality between Lucca and Florence. Villa Sermolli, a perfect location between two art cities
Buggiano Castello is strategically located: just 15 minutes from Montecatini Terme, 30 from Lucca and Pistoia, and under an hour from Florence. And yet, once you return to the villa, it feels like a world apart — peaceful, silent, and timeless.
For travelers seeking authenticity, not luxury chains
Villa Sermolli is the perfect choice for those who seek soulful places over luxury hotels. For those who want to feel like a guest, not a number. For those who wish to connect with people, nature and the true spirit of Tuscany.
