Relais Corte Rodeschi
Classic Tuscan villa — think frescoed ceilings in the main villa, marble-named suites in the White Villa, and the kind of hush that comes from being in a real hilltop hamlet with no tourist foot traffic. Run by the owner-doctors who restored it with evident personal investment.
The access road into the property is very narrow — reviewers consistently flag this. Come in slowly and ideally in a smaller car.
Why It Matters
One of the few genuinely owner-operated historic relais in the Versilia hinterland, curated by a husband-and-wife team (both doctors) who converted the estate themselves. Three marble-themed suites named Marquinia, Calacatta, and Onyx — each referencing stone quarried nearby in the Apuan Alps — are a clever nod to the region's identity. Listed on Tablet Hotels.
An 18th-century aristocratic villa paired with a 19th-century farmhouse, both sitting on a hillside estate in the tiny hamlet of Nocchi, converted into a 15-room boutique hotel. The grounds are proper estate stuff: a manicured garden, a seasonal outdoor pool with sun loungers, and unobstructed views across the Apuan Alps. It sits squarely between mountain trails and the Versilia coast — Forte dei Marmi is a 20-minute drive, Lucca about the same.
