OUR HISTORY

A history spanning the centuries

Of medieval origin, Villa Hugo holds over 800 years of architectural memory and Tuscan life. Over the centuries, the residence belonged to the noble Lucchese Trebiliani family, becoming part of the cultural and rural heritage of the countryside around Lucca. Authentic architectural details still tell the story of the villa's original character today, preserved through careful restoration and enhancement work.

Acquired by the Matteucci family between the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Villa Hugo also lived through one of the most intense chapters of European history. During the Second World War, the property was chosen as a strategic command post for the American armed forces engaged along the Gothic Line. Even today, its walls preserve the quiet charm of a place that has crossed the centuries and observed history from a privileged position.

UNIQUE EXPERIENCES

Experience Tuscany, with natural elegance.

A saltwater pool with hydromassage, shaded pergolas, centuries-old olive trees and outdoor spaces designed for sharing time and beauty. Every room in the villa has been restored to preserve its historic character while discreetly integrating contemporary comforts.

Villa Hugo has long pursued a genuine vision of sustainable hospitality: the estate's energy is supported by a substantial photovoltaic system, the heating system is powered by renewable sources — in particular self-produced firewood — and the property's organic orchard continues to produce local fruit and oil, offered to guests as a gesture of welcome. An approach born from respect for the land and the villa's culture, long before sustainability became a trend.

For those wishing to reach the villa with maximum convenience and discretion, the property has a private area suitable for helicopter landings, offering swift, exclusive access to the heart of Tuscany.

Saltwater Pool with Hydromassage

The saltwater pool with hydromassage is an invitation to the most authentic relaxation. Surrounded by the estate's greenery, it offers a place to recharge, letting wellbeing merge with the peace of the Tuscan countryside.

Centuries-old Olive Trees

The olive trees that grace the estate tell a story of time, tradition and a deep bond with the land. These trees give rise to Villa Hugo's extra virgin olive oil, an authentic expression of the Lucchesia.

Unique Outdoor Spaces

Manicured gardens and elegant outdoor lounges turn every moment into an experience to be savoured slowly. Places designed for sharing, relaxing and enjoying the beauty of nature in total privacy.
