Celebrate a Milestone Birthday in Tuscany

Turning 40, 50, 60 or more deserves more than a quick dinner out. Imagine celebrating with your closest people in the Tuscan hills: long lunches in the sunshine, a glass of local wine as the sun sets over the mountains, and nowhere you need to be.

Why celebrate in Tuscany?

Tuscany has a way of slowing time down. The food is simple and delicious, the wine is excellent, and the landscape is beautiful in every season. A milestone birthday here becomes a shared memory rather than just another party, the kind of trip you will talk about for years.

A private farmhouse, just for you

Stalla di Guzzano is a restored stone farmhouse in the hills above Bagni di Lucca. It is a wonderful place to celebrate with a partner, your best friends or close family. You have the whole house, pool and terrace to yourselves, so you can celebrate exactly the way you want.

Ideas for your celebration

• A long lunch on the terrace, with local cheeses, cured meats, bread and olive oil.
• A birthday aperitivo by the pool as the light turns golden over the valley.
• A wine tasting on the Strada del Vino near Lucca.
• A day of pampering at the historic thermal spas of Bagni di Lucca.
• Dinner out in Lucca, followed by a stroll along the city walls.
• A slow morning with coffee on the terrace and nothing planned at all.

Planning tips

• Book early if your birthday falls in summer, as July and August are the busiest months.
• Consider spring or autumn. May, June and September are warm and green, and much quieter.
• Hire a car. It makes exploring the villages, vineyards and coast much easier.
• Tell us it is a special occasion. We are always happy to share ideas and local recommendations.
