The villa is ideal for couples, families with children, large groups and offers relaxation in the heart of the Tuscan landscape. Here you can enjoy a quiet retreat in the countryside and at the same time a good connection to the vibrant city of Florence.

A bus stop with a direct connection to the center of Florence is also only 350 m from the villa. For golf enthusiasts, the prestigious Ugolino Golf Club is just 6 km away.

It has 7 spacious bedrooms, each with a king-size bed and a television and a safe in each room, as well as 7 bathrooms. The villa is equipped with air conditioning and flying grids are attached to the bedroom windows for additional comfort. On request when booking, there is the possibility to add four sleeping sofas, which makes the villa perfect for larger groups.

    Our Guests Reviews

    We stayed at the Villa with friends and family when our son got married at a close by location. The service and hospitality provided by owners were nothing short of magnificent! We enjoyed the daily breakfasts and modern conveniences and all of the attention to detail at this historical Villa. As the location is tucked away, they helped tremendously with taxis and drivers to various locations for wedding events, meals, etc., since we didn’t have a car. The pool area was a perfect place for all of us to gather any time of the day or evening. Thanks to all for making this stay an awesome beginning to a memorable vacation!

    Wir kamen durch Zufall an diesen Ort, besser gesagt, es war eine wunderbare Fügung, denn besser hätten wir es kaum treffen können. Nur 7 Zimmer oder Suiten, alles aus vergangenen Jahrhunderten, aber liebevoll und behutsam renoviert und bestens gepflegt. Auch der Garten wird unsichtbar in bestem Zustand gehalten, die dafür Zuständigen sind vorhanden, aber kaum zu sehen. Das Frühstück auf der Terrasse, umgeben von feinen Düften der Pflanzen, bei hervorragendem Kaffee und frischen Croissants ist ein Erlebnis. Der Pool und die herrlichen Liegen im schönen Garten: wunderbar! Absolut zu empfehlen, der Service durch den jungen Eigentümer extrem gut, alles sauber und einfach ein wunderbarer Ort.

    Traumhafter Aufenthalt, perfekt. Bei Ankunft war alles vorbereitet, herzlicher Empfang, wunderschönes, blitzsaubere Zimmer. Sehr gepflegter Garten mit Pool, hervorragendes Frühstück, für den Abend exzellente Weine. Sehr praktisch ist außerdem, daß die Innenstadt von Florenz mühelos per (klimatisiertem) Bus zu erreichen ist (Bushaltestelle 700 m vom Haus entfernt); viel praktischer als mit dem Auto. Sehr gerne wieder.
    Schneider, Mai 2023

    Wir hatten für 3 Tage gebucht. Die Villa befindet sich südlich von Florenz in einer hügeligen Landschaft, am Beginn der berühmten 222-Straße durch die Chianti-Gegend bis nach Siena. Die Villa ist etwas abgelegen, aber sehr romantisch. Die Gartenanlagen sind traumhaft, die Atmosphäre ist modern-antik und mit zeitgemäßem, perfekten Service. Hier kann man nur Frühstücken und einen kleinen Lunch vorbestellen. Sehr persönliche Atmosphäre und grandioser Service. Ein außergewöhnliches Haus mit Wohlfühl-Garantie.
    Für Florenz-Besuche Taxi oder eigenes Auto erforderllich. Ein ganz lieber Dank an die Gastgeber! Besser geht es nicht!

    In occasione della mostra su Donatello abbiamo avuto l'occasione di soggiornare in questa bllissima villa d'epoca che dispone di 7 camere a 10 minuti di auto dai Giardini di Boboli e Villa Bardini. Dispone di parcheggio interno e magnifica piscina affacciata sulle colline, ed è dotata di tutti i comfort (aria condizionata, riscaldamento, Wifi ecc). Mantiene tuttavia il fascino della dimora d'epoca grazie agli arredi ed alla ristrutturazione realizzata in perfetta armonia con l'impianto originari delka villa e del contesto. Le camere sono ampie, con letti grandi e super confortevoli. I bagni molto belli e curati in ogni dettaglio. La colazione è deliziosa, ricca e varia, sia dolce che salata realizzata con prodotti freschi e dolci e marmellate fatti in casa. Il proprietario dell'immobile, signor Emilio, insieme al suo staff, ci hanno fatto sentire come a casa fornendoci ogni indicazione utile a rendere questo soggiorno indimenticabile. Davvero da provare.

    Il est difficile de savoir par quoi commencer tellement il y a de points positifs dans ce magnifique maison. Tout d'abord le cadre, la demeure, la piscine... tout est superbe et bien entretenu. 
    La chambre était spacieuse, confortable et joliment décorée (la salle de bain était gigantesque). 
    Il était très agréable de prendre l'excellent petit déjeuner sur la terrasse ou de prendre l'apéritif au bord de la piscine. 
    Emiliano, Francesca et notre troisième hôte (dont nous ne connaissons pas le prénom), ont été adorables, par leur accueil mais aussi par une multitude de petites attentions : Ils nous ont conseillés d'excellents petits restaurants, nous ont proposé de réserver pour nous, nous ont indiqueé les plus belles villes à visiter, nous ont aidé lorsque notre voiture est tombée en panne et que ne connaissant pas l'italien nous étions un peu perdu pour nous expliquer avec le dépanneur,... 
    Nous avons également apprécié que notre petit garçon d'1 an et demi soit si bien accueilli. 
    Nous voyageons beaucoup et avons rarement trouvé un établissement aussi parfait, nous avons passé 2 semaines inoubliables!

    We stayed here for 9 nights and I cannot speak more highly of our experience.
    The owner made us feel welcome and comfortable, like we were coming home.
    The rooms were huge and spotlessly clean and you cannot beat the pool area. It is so beautiful and serene. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to all my friends and family. Thank you!

    Activities

    According to statistics produced by UNESCO, 60% of the world's most important works of art are located in Italy and approximately half of these are in Florence! The city lies on the Arno River and is known for its history and its importance in the Middle Ages and in the Renaissance, especially for its art and architecture. A centre of medieval European trade and finance, the city is often considered the birthplace of the Italian Renaissance; in fact, it has been called the Athens of the Middle Ages. It was long under the de facto rule of the Medici family. From 1865 to 1870 the city was also the capital of the Kingdom of Italy. The historic centre of Florence continues to attract millions of tourists each year and was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1982. Strolling through the centre of Florence is a pleasure, the characterful narrow streets which are mostly closed to traffic are full of surprises and temptations.

    A good starting point is the Piazza della Signoria, it's the heart of Florence's historic centre and an open-air art exhibit. The Loggia della Signoria, which sits on the square, contains a collection of some of the most valuable artworks in the world.

    Head down Via Borgo San Lorenzo and you will find il Duomo, probably Florence's most popular tourist attraction. The given name is Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore. Brunelleschi designed the Dome (il Duomo), which highlights the stunning Chiesa Santa Maria del Fiore, and many climb the 463 steps to the bell tower to enjoy the panoramic view over Florence. The cathedral is also a treasure trove of art with contributions from Michelangelo, Donatello and Brunelleschi.

    The Baptistery of St John the Baptist lies in front of the Duomo. It was built on the foundations of an ancient Roman temple and the golden doors which face the cathedral are replicas of an original set by Lorenzo Ghiberti (extensively copied - including the entrance doors to St Peters in Rome) and termed by Michelangelo as the “doors to paradise”.

    The Uffizi Gallery is one of the oldest and most important Renaissance art galleries in the world and is only outdone by the Vatican museums. Its impressive collection of artworks from the Renaissance period includes Botticelli's Birth of Venus, and art by Giotto, Lippi, Botticelli, Da Vinci, Raphael and Michelangelo. Most of the work was commissioned by the Medici family.

    The Galleria dell'Accademia, contains one of Florence's most renowned symbols, Michelangelo's original statue of David, and an impressive collection of artwork from the 13th-16th centuries including a collection of musical instruments, from the Medici family.

    Ponte Vecchio, lucky to have survived WWII, it's one of only 3 bridges in the world that houses shops.

    For the best views over the city of Florence take a walk from Porta Romana to Piazzale Michelangelo and then onto San Miniato, one of Tuscany's most beautiful Romanesque churches and the oldest standing in Florence.

    Eating out: Prepare to be overwhelmed, Florence abounds with excellent restaurants serving traditional Tuscan and Italian cuisine. The Piazza Santa Maria Novella and the alleyways which run from it are very popular and have an array of culinary options to satisfy all tastes. The best value for money will be found at the Trattorias and Pizzerias, in addition your best chances of finding great value authentic cooking in a family environment will be at a Trattoria.

    Shopping in Florence! Florence has some of the most exciting shopping in Europe, and is really an adventure rather than a commercial outing. Artisans crafts like leather goods, gold and silver smiths (see Ponte Vecchio) jewelry, art, handbags etc. will surprise down almost every alleyway.

    The informal morning markets which sell food, clothing, accessories, arts and crafts, etc. are an invaluable and fun insight into Florentine culture.
