About this farm stay rental
This charming period farmhouse is a country family retreat, the perfect place to relax and unwind with the treasures of Florence on your doorstep. Set on a beautiful peaceful hillside 18 km from Florence, the traditional farmhouse has been meticulously restored by its owners, retaining its original stone arches, beamed ceilings and terracotta floors. The well furnished and equipped main house is cool, with three double bedrooms and one three bed room, plus 3 bathrooms.
Oriental fabrics and pastel colours define the large, airy living areas, opening onto the terraces surrounding the house. The courtyard, pergola, terraces and loggia provide unparalleled outside living and dining areas with stunning views. Surrounded by pretty gardens and terraced grounds (6 hectares), the house has a lovely 12 m pool. Very comfortable and child-friendly, basic help included and cooking can be arranged as required.

We had a wonderful stay here for two weeks in August 2024. Eleanor and her family couldn't have been more helpful with logistics before, during and after our stay (including finding my son's retainers and sending them on to him at boarding school....!). The property and gardens are absolutely beautiful with lots of spots for sitting and relaxing. The location at the end of a steep and narrow driveway, along with the views from the swimming pool across the Arno, gave a real sense of seclusion, making for a proper escape from the realities of every day life. We had three meals cooked for us by a local lady, which were delicious, Tuscan, and almost too much food for two adults and four teenagers. Train into Florence and Pisa was super convenient (15 minute drive to station, ample parking), and we discovered the wonderful Edy Piu restaurant nearby and visited a couple of times. Large supermarket with everything you need 15 minutes away by car. It was 35-37C most days, and so the airconditioning in the bedrooms was very welcome. All-in-all exactly what we wanted and would gladly visit again.

The villa was rustic and lovely as advertised. The view is incredible and property beautiful. Eleanor was a great host and very responsive.

A huge thank you for a fantastic holiday! The beautiful house and setting were perfect while the excellent pool, air con, spacious rooms and amenities ensured we had a brilliant family holiday, despite a 40 degree heatwave.
The villa’s proximity to Florence and so many other locations is obviously a pivotal feature, but it’s the villa, its grounds and the views down the hillside that are most remarkable. It’s an amazing location that I’m struggling to find superlatives for - it’s simply stunning. Thank you again - we had one of the best family holidays ever!

Wir haben uns im Haus von Eleanor sehr wohl gefühlt und haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Das Haus bietet sehr viel Platz und ist top ausgestattet und wird sehr gepflegt. Der Pool war ebenfalls ein Highlight, welchen wir zu unserer alleinigen Benutzung zur Verfügung hatten. Der Pool und die Umgebung sind auch in hervorragendem Zustand und werden laufend gereinigt (Kompliment an Fernando). Vom Haus ist man in rund 30 Minuten in Florenz, daher bietet es eine hervorragende Ausgangslage für Exkursionen in der näheren und ferneren Umgebung (beispielsweise aus Siena, San Gimignano, Lucca oder ans Meer. Vielen Dank an Eleanor für den sehr netten Empfang und die guten Tips u.a. für Restaurants in der Umgebung. Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder!
