I want to visit Bagni di Lucca (a collection of small villages in the hills about 25 minutes from Lucca). Has anyone been there? I am looking for any info you can share on accommodations and hiking/walking to explore the nearby villages. I am looking for accommodations. I don't want it to be in the crowded part ( La Villa or Fornoli) but in a quiet area such as Ponte a Serraglio.I would like to be able to walk to the shops and cafes from the accommodation and also hike/walk to the nearby villages. I would consider a B and B or a private vacation rental for 3 people.
