Anyone Heard of VILLA LA BIANCA near LUCCA?
 
Has anyone heard of the towns called Camaiore or Casoli (about 25km North of Lucca)? I recently booked a B&B called VILLA LA BIANCA located inbetween those 2 towns, but have found very little about either. <BR> <BR>I'd appreciate any information/experiences on the town or the B&B.

Villa La Bianca is a very nice place and you can see some photos at the following address: <BR>http://www.tuscany.net/villalabianca/index.html <BR>even if you have already booked then you can see lots of photos and see if you really like it.

After looking at their website it looks beautiful. I would like to know something about the area also. I find it surprising no one seems to know anything about this place to share something on their experience there.

Hi. Just returned from 2 1/2 weeks in Italy. For some of the time we stayed at a resort in Forte dei Marmi which is on the Ligurian Sea. Only about 1/2 hour from Lucca. We discovered an amazing restaurant in Camaiore called Le Bernadone, an old olive oil factory.

Thanks Amy. I will put it on my list of restaurants to visit. Thank you Eliana for the link. <BR> <BR>It appears the villa is one of those rare places that hasn't been over run with american tourists. I guess I will have to find out for myself if I made a decent choice or not.

I stayed 2 nights in Lucca last year with my family of 4. I enjoyed it and would return. Not a lot going on, but interesting walled city. Good restaurants. Stayed at Hotel Piccilo Puccini in town, nice place to stay.
