I stayed here with my family as we were taking a road trip through Tuscany. The location is about 10 minutes from Florence on a hillside outside of the city with great views of Tuscan vineyards and olive trees.
It was a little difficult to find with GPS given the windy roads and small gravel path that it is located down. However, Alessandro was helpful in describing how to get there and was available by WhatsApp before we arrived to help us navigate.
The space is cozy and has character. Alessandro even lit the fireplace for us one evening when it was chilly. There’s also an espresso machine in the kitchen which was a big hit. A short walk from the home (and across from where Galileo once lived - cool) is a very nice restaurant with traditional Italian / Tuscan food. It is a little more pricey than others but was well worth the visit. It was one of the better meals I had while in Italy.
We really enjoyed our stay and felt like it was a real Italian experience unlike many of the more touristy aspects of our trip. It was nice to be on the outskirts of town, given the fact that we were driving and only local cars are allowed on most roads in the city of Florence. I’d recommend this place to anyone who is driving through Tuscany in a small group and would like a little break from staying near city centers.
