Lovely stay in Tuscan countryside
Classic Tuscan farmhouse with great pool. We had a lovely stay. Worth noting that a car is required as, particularly throughbheight of summer, the local town/village is not walkable (25min walk). The tram to Florence is a 15min drive from the house.

Tuscan delight
Set inthe Tuscan hills outside of Florence this rustic and charming farmhouse was everything we had hoped for and better. We arrived in August when they were experiencing high temperatures in the late 30 degrees. Diana the amazing owner had left bottles of wine for us and met us after arrival. The house was perfect for us all and a huge plus was it had air conditioning which was necessary in these temperatures. We had a week here and most days did day trips to towns in the area.(Lucca, Siena ,San Gimignano Florence etc) It was fabulous to be able to come home and swim and relax by the large pool and chat with the lovely other guest family. In the evenings we ate out at the amazing restaurant 5 mins up the road (Fleuris) or cooked in the well equipped kitchen . Overall a beautiful place and area to stay in . Thankyou Diana for everything.

Our stay in lovely Tuscany
The property was lovely and Diana was an amazing host.She provided a lot of information which was invaluable. The main advantages however , were the fantastic countryside and the location of the property. To be able to access Florence by tram so near the house is brilliant. We hope to be back one day.

About the host

Hosted by Diana Ghezzi

Host profile image
I am 65 years old and of half Swedish and half English birth. Now happily married to an Italian and we have two grown-up sons, Nicolo and Guido. My husband and I live in the main villa on a wine and olive oil estate which has belonged to my husband's family for over 400 years, and the villa we offer to you is one of the original farm houses on this estate. We are very much "hands on" and try to give guests the maximum help and comfort possible. The area is beautiful, and private, and yet within a few minutes of main routes to a large number of wonderful cities in Tuscany, principally of course Florence.

Why they chose this property

This property is part of a wine and olive oil growing estate near to Florence in Tuscany. The estate has belonged to the same family since Renaissance times and this farmhouse was originally a farm workers cottage - now restored to provide a cosy and comfortable holiday home without losing its original character and charm. Pisa airport is 45 mins by car, Florence airport 30 mins by car and Florence centre is easily accessible for day trips by tramway from nearby Scandicci.

What makes this property unique

The farmhouse is 15 kms from Florence and the nearest tram stop is 10 mins away by car. The surrounding countryside is totally unspoilt, peaceful and beautiful, and yet there is easy access to all main autostrada routes.
