About this property

Typical Tuscan Countryside Cottage near Florence

My cottage is hidden in Tuscan countryside among olive groves, vineyards and woodland. However, downtown Florence is only 16km away (20 mins drive)!The house can host max 6 people and one infant (one queen bed, two single beds, one double sofa bed).
While away, spend your time by relaxing in the garden, which is equipped with a barbecue to cook outdoors and an outdoor shower to cool down while sunbathing. Florence itself is like an open air museum, reserve at least two full days to visit the least you must see! Discover the beauty of surrounding countryside with a hike and unwind with a view of picture-perfect vineyards! There are wine tasting opportunities walking distance from here so you can taste as much wine as you wish, no need to drive back! One can also go for day trips to many beautiful medieval towns scattered on the hills of Tuscany from here. Pisa, Siena, San Gimignano, Volterra, Greve in Chianti, Panzano in Chianti, Castellina in Chianti, all of them around an hour \ hour and a half drive from the cottage. Yes, we border with the world famous Chianti wine region! Amazing landscape all around!
Cooking for you at the property is possible with an extra charge and agreed upon in advance. Otherwise, I can recommend excellent restaurants; you must know where to go if you want an authentic culinary experience;)
The property itself, has a spacious living room with a couch sleeping two if necessary. The kitchen is very big and has everything you might need to cook your meals. Two bedrooms, each with its own bathroom can comfortably accommodate 4 people. There is also a cot and a chair for an infant available. Table tennis, a barbecue, a garden with garden furniture to eat out if you wish to or read or sunbath or play. The house stretches on 3 levels, there are stairs.
I will provide you with a mobile internet device so you can take internet with you on your excursions!
A deli store, where you can have a breakfast, lunch or do the basic grocery shopping is only 5mins drive away from here.

Lovely location easy drive to Florence and Chianti and Val d’Orchia
Absolutely charming owner and property. Highly recommend for couples/families/ groups. magdalens went out of her way to welcome us and made us feel right at home. The location is ideal for a visit to wine country or Florence. With an Ultrathon planned nearby for March 2926, we will book as soon as the date is set ( our daughter runs the 100 and 50 K races). One note- stairs to every bedroom/ bathroom for those of us with some limitations. We will definitely be back soon !!

The cottage and surrounding countryside are even more beautiful than the photos, Magdalena is a wonderful host with so much great advice on things to do in the surrounding area.

Perfect home in Tuscany
This was the perfect home for our family while we visited Tuscany and Florence. The property and surrounding land are gorgeous, and it’s just 20 minutes from Florence. Magdalena was so kind and gracious, very responsive, and gave us several recommendations for the local area. We would love to come here again.

Cute Cottage in Tuscany!
Our stay at this cottage was wonderful. It had everything we needed to make our visit comfortable. It was nice that it was in the countryside but still so close to several quaint villages and just 15-20 minutes drive from Florence. The owners were very accommodating as well. Such a nice place to stay!

Very quiet place in countryside
We had a wonderful stay here and took drives in nearby Chianti towns. The cottage is at the end of a private road and is perfect for a couple. Lots of birdsong and walks down the road showed views of the nearby vineyards.

This is the perfect place to land if you want to explore what Tuscany has to offer. View is amazing and Magdalena has created a space that is relaxing inside and outside. There is a great local cafe/deli/pizzeria not far from the cottage that was our go-to in the mornings. Such a lovely rental.

wonderful stay
The farm house is very charming and located on beautiful property about 20 minutes from Florence attractions. The hostess was very responsive and helpful. The interior is 5 star in a 200 year old structure. part of an old wine estate and there is a 5 star winery/restaurant across the highway, 5 minutes away. If you like quiet in wine country, high end furnishings, and long walks, this is for you.

Wonderful Tuscan cottage
Lovely Tuscan cottage on the owner’s large property. Very peaceful, private and quiet. Excellent location to serve as a base while exploring the rest of Tuscany, or to relax in the beautiful countryside. Cottage is very clean and has everything you need, including air conditioning. Magdalena is a wonderful host, very helpful and thorough. She gave us our privacy during our stay. Thoroughly recommend a stay in this cottage.

Attractive, comfortable, convenient.
We prefer to stay in isolated houses and this was the best so far: we plan to stay here again. At the end of a rough mile-long farm track (no problem for normal cars) the house is built on a slope, so that all rooms have natural light. The furniture and decoration is attractive, there is more than ample storage in all the rooms plus a utility room downstairs. All rooms are generously-sized and the pictures are accurate. The wifi was fine even for streaming but dropped periodically on some days (the weather?). But it was still better than other rural houses we have stayed in. The owners live next door, and are helpful but never intrusive. Time to the centre of Florence was about 60-70 minutes (driving, parking and walking). Beccaria car park always had space.
