Villa Marlia: A Treasure Chest Of A Garden Near Lucca

The Villa Reale, or Villa Marlia, is one of the many beautiful historic estates located in the Tuscan countryside. There are lots of wonderful villas in the area around Lucca, in particular, and this property in an area called Marlia is especially lovely.

A former royal palace with extensive and stunning gardens, it is filled with surprises around every turn and if you have found a luxury villa in Lucca, it is the perfect place to head off for a day trip.

Exploring the grounds, alone, will take up to two hours and if you want to picnic in the gardens (which we recommend) or visit the villa (although it is currently closed for renovation work), you will need additional time. Off the beaten tourist track and away from intense crowds but full of things to see and do, it is the ideal place to wander at your leisure and truly enjoy your downtime while on holidays.

In our last post, we discussed the beautiful Medieval Tuscan town of Collodi and its connection to the creation and tales of beloved character Pinocchio. The biggest attraction in the town is a theme park dedicated to the famous puppet, Pinocchio Park, which is a real highlight of the region for children and adults alike and a great day out.

However, despite the town being relatively small and unheard of, it actually has a couple more attractions that will keep everyone in the group happy and provide a nice break from trips to museums and churches for kids exploring Tuscany and her culture and history. Once you have found a luxury villa in Collodi, these are a few of the things that you will want to check out in the town.

The Tuscan town of Collodi, not far from Florence, is most famous as the place where the beloved children's character Pinocchio was created by author Carlo Collodi and featured in the 1883 book, “The Adventures of Pinocchio”. Propelled into fame on a global scale when the story was made into an animated classic by Disney in 1940, Pinocchio became an integral figure in the lives of many children throughout the world. Those who are particularly fond of the puppet who learned how to become a boy and his story and who have found a luxury villa in Collodi (or who have found a luxury villa in Florence and are planning a day trip to the area) will, no doubt, be sure to plan a trip to the theme park dedicated to character, Pinocchio Park. Throughout the town, too, you will find lots of different tributes to the story and plenty of souvenirs on sale from the massive statue of the puppet visible all over town to the little Pinocchio figures sold all over. However, if you are not merely interested in Pinocchio, you will find that the charming little town of Collodi actually has more to offer visitors beyond the park with its rides and whimsy, it is also home to the exceptional Garzoni Gardens and the Butterfly House, which are located just a few minutes away on foot.

Those who are thinking of booking a villa in Tuscany on the Tuscany Villas website and who are browsing through our incredible listings, may have spotted the text underneath the Book Now box on the property pages of some vacation rentals that reads, “Interest-free Installment Plan.” This is the indication that the property in question is part of our recently launched installment payment plan.

The first of its kind of this sort of payment scheme in the tourism sector, this allows our customers who are looking to book well in advance of a trip to secure a dream vacation rental in Tuscany without having to spend a larger sum of money all in one go. Completely free of interest, this payment option has no hidden costs but is simply an easy way to pay off a smaller amount of the total at a time with calculations of payments made based on the property and dates and nothing else.

If you’re passing through the cosy little town of Collodi in Pistoia province during your next vacation in Tuscany then you should certainly spend a few hours walking around the splendid Garzoni Gardens. Designed in 1652, the Garzoni gardens are a beautifully sculpted landscape that extends outwards from the grand Villa Garzoni.

The layout is nearly exactly the same today as it was back then. Tourists wishing to spend a few days in the area to explore them and other tourist attractions have a fine selection of beautiful villa rentals in Pescia, less than six kilometres away from the gardens.

The stunning Renaissance style geometry of the Garzoni Gardens with a hint of Baroque styling are truly magnificent to behold! There’s a fragrant array of flora and fauna that are growing throughout and pruned to perfection. Stroll around the winding paths and admire the awe inspiring sculptures and exquisite water fountains.

One of the most internationally famous and beloved of all Italian characters ever created has to be Pinocchio. Created by author Carlo Collodi and featured in the 1883 book, “The Adventures of Pinocchio”, he was propelled into the spotlight on a global scale when his tale was adapted for the big screen by Disney in 1940. However, Carlo Collodi wasn’t the author’s real name but rather a nom de plume taken from his home village of Collodi in the Tuscan hills, not far from Florence.

Today, the town has been clever enough to embrace this beloved character and is dedicated to all things Pinocchio. A giant statue of the puppet-boy is visible throughout the town, little Pinocchio toys are available all over so you can bring him home with you and there is even a theme park, Pinocchio Park, dedicated to him.

If you are travelling Tuscany with kids or have nostalgic fondness for the story, just find a luxury villa in Collodi and spend a day exploring the park and town.
