A wealth of information about Bagni di Lucca and the area of Lucca, fast Internet access at a reasonable price and a great selection of new and used English Books (over 2,000 titles) means that you will probably want to drop in more than once if you plan on visiting or staying in Bagni di Lucca.

Whether you’re searching for local culinary delights, accommodation in an untouched Tuscan village, walks through the beautiful mountain terrain, or just need to know where you can get pampered, Jaqueline is in the know and will let you in on some invaluable information that can’t be found in a guide book or tourist info centre.

Jaqueline loves fruit!

What the Grapevine magazine had to say about Jaqueline’s:

“…there’s almost nothing better than sitting (cappuccino in hand) amid a peaceful milieu and reading for an hour or two. Finding a good book though, is often where the journey stalls with few stores offering cheap, interesting titles particularly the further you get from the bustling Lucca walls. But tucked up in the small, stunning historic spa town of Bagni di Lucca, a quaint little store has just opened selling a wide selection of second hand English books. Just up from the square of Ponte a Serraglio, Jaqueline’s, is a beautiful example of what treasures you can find in Italy’s small mountain villages. With a local’s perspective, coupled with a traveler’s intrigue, the owner, Jaqueline (same name as the shop) has brought a warmth and personality to the Tuscan town famed for the therapeutic virtues of its springs, thermal baths and caves. As a traveler myself, I know the importance of a good book whilst traveling or holidaying…”
