Tina and Franco welcome you to La Tinaia, their villa farmhouse located in a natural area on the beautiful hills surounding Florence at only 10 km from the city center and only 10 min drive (5 km) from the Tramway station in Scandicci with a free parking. The trip to Florence takes 18 min.

La Tinaia is located in a peaceful place right in the middle of an unbelievably picturesque area of Tuscany. The villa farmouse is surrounded by vineyards, olive groves and woods. We rent 4 apartments cozy with spactacular hill top views. They were restored with particular care respecting the characteristics of the Tuscan style.

The apartment I CIPRESSI is located on the top floor, it enjoys beautiful views of the Chianti countryside. La Tinaia is particularly recommended for those who want to spend holidays under the sign of quiet to discover the unique artistic and naturalistic heritage of the region.
Good restaurant few minutes walking.

The large garden provides spaces for outside dining, swimming pool, solarium, barbecue, camp for bowls play. For nature lovers, there are trekking and mountain biking paths.

We live in thie villa and are happy to guide our guests and help them if they need.

Gorgeous spot, but not somewhere for young children

This place is absolutely gorgeous, beautiful views, the flat is lovely and clean and it’s in a great location to visit local sights. However, we felt that it is more suited for adults or people travelling without young children. We booked the family apartment and informed the host of our children’s ages upon booking (8 and 6). Within the first day we were told off by the owners twice for being too noisy in the pool despite there were no other guests staying. This really put us on edge for the week, as our kids loved the pool and really wanted to be in it most of the time! We left a day early because of this feeling which was a shame as it really is a lovely spot.

Charming Tuscany stay

Beautiful property nestled among a vineyard and olive orchard. Spectacular view of hillside and valley. Sunsets were mind blowing. The apt we stayed was truly a home away from home with the Italian flare you would want. Tina, the host was extremely helpful and very nice. Their wine was wonderful and olive oil excellent.

Beautiful Country Stay

La Tinaia is set in the countryside - beautiful property - requires a car to get to the town and to the tram to go into Florence - good location for exploring the countryside and other towns in Tuscany - overall a great place to stay if you are wanting to do more than just Florence!

Toller Aufenthalt

Wir waren rundherum mit dem Aufenthalt zufrieden. Das Haus mit der Lage in den Weinbergen und der sehr, sehr gut gepflegte Pool und Garten übertrafen die Erwartungen. Einzig und alleine die veraltete sanitäre einrichtung und die alten Türen, die sich nicht leise schließen ließen können bemängelt werden.

Ein kleines Paradies

Unser Aufenthalt war eine Freude. Alles war sehr liebevoll und ordentlich im Appartement und auf dem Grundstück gestaltet. Einmal pro Woche gibt es die Möglichkeit zu einem typisch toskanischen Abendessen, gekocht vom Hausherrn. An beiden Abenden haben alle Gäste teilgenommen. Man genießt das Essen und kommt länderübergreifend ins Gespräch. Der Pool mit seinen schönen Ausblicken war sowohl für uns Eltern und natürlich v.a. für unsere Kinder eine Freude und willkommene Erfrischung. Florenz und viele andere toskanische Attraktionen liegen vor der Tür. Zu unserer Zeit im August war es für die Ausflüge in die Städte jedoch durchgehend sehr heiß. ( 35-41 Grad). Ein kleines, warmes Paradies.

Good!

We recently stayed at La Tinaia for 4 nights and had a great stay. Tina was very responsive from the beginning and met us in person even when we arrived late in the evening. The home is excellent and the views are amazing. We had a relaxing break with the pool and the surroundings. The house is very convenient to do day trips to Certaldo, Lucca, Seina and other Tuscan villages

We had a wonderful stay w Franco and Tina. The property is beautiful, the pool was refreshing in June. The walkable restaurant was delicious and La Tinaia wine was perfecto. 20 minutes to Florence and/or Tuscany tastings - then back to relax at the beautiful property. Wake up peacefully to birds chirping. Highly recommend

Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Die Gastgeber Tina & Franco sind unglaublich nett, haben ein kleines Paradies geschaffen und waren immer hilfsbereit und freundlich.

Eine wunderschöne ruhige Wohnung, in einer hübschen Gegend mit tollem Blick über die toskanische Landschaft. Florenz ist schnell mit der Straßenbahn zu erreichen, streßfrei und ohne Parkgebühren! Es gibt ein nettes Restaurant in der Nähe. Die Gastgeber Tino und Franco sind sehr freundlich und super sypmathisch. Uns hat es sehr gut gefallen und ich würde sofort wieder buchen!

Vacances toscanes

Très bon séjour, propreté irréprochable. Tina parle très bien français c'est assez agréable. La piscine est également super après une journée de visite et de marche Par contre si l'environnement est particulièrement calme et paisible, l'isolation acoustique entre les appartement est inexistante. Dommage.

We will be back!

We spent a month at La Tinaia in Sep-Oct 2016. That’s a long time. It’s easy to spoil the entire vacation if one’s living conditions are below expectations. Naturally, we spent a lot of time selecting a place to stay, and boy did we make a right decision! 1. Location. La Tinaia is a 10-15 min drive away from the Tramvia in Scandicci with free parking at the tram station. Trams come every 3-4 minutes. 16-18 min – and you are at Santa Maria Novella, the center of Florence. On the other hand, La Tinaia is a very quiet place right in the middle of unbelievably picturesque area of Tuscany. Take all your lenses if you are involved in photography because you will use all of them! Beautiful sunsets right from the property, hundreds of views to die for within 10 min drive, you name it. 2. Conditions. Rustic style rooms yet convenient kitchen equipment and clean bathrooms; gated parking, a nice pool, outdoor space for lunch, privacy for every guest if you want it. While in Tuscany, we visited several other locations where our friends stayed (including one that we considered “close second”), and La Tinaia was definitely better. 3. Hosts. Tina and Franco are great. They are extremely helpful and very hospitable. What’s more, they invite all their guests to a gourmet dinner once every 1-2 weeks (charging a very reasonable fee). Franco is a fantastic chef, you will be challenged to find this quality of a dinner elsewhere, and even if you do you are guaranteed to pay thrice. 4. Specialty. La Tinaia is actually a winery and they also produce olive oil. Enjoy their products, they worth it. 5. Overall. We will be back. There are so many nice places in the world (and in Toscana), but we will be back.

About the host

Hosted by Tina Radassao

Host profile image
Tina and Franco: we dreamed of living in a place where we could live in harmony with nature. In 1998 we left our office jobs and city life in Florence to realise our dreams. In 2000 we opened our Agriturismo. Until December 2024, we produced Chianti wine and extra virgin olive oil. Since we are no longer young, we have entrusted our land to young farmers, but we continue to share our home with guests from all over the world.

Why they chose this property

We are in the hills near Florence, surrounded by dream landscapes. We live immersed in nature but close to the city. We love life in the country but also Florence, the city of our origins.

What makes this property unique

La Tinaia is located in a small corner of paradise, very peaceful, with beautiful views of the hills, vineyards, olive groves and woods. This is the ideal place to recharge.

In this area you can find many trails for long walks or biking. Possibility to rent 2 e-bikes. Our swimming pool has a panoramic view and it is always very clean.

For lovers of art and beauty in all its forms, we are very close to Florence and the T1 tramway stop is only 5 km away (10 minutes drive). The ride to Florence by tramway takes 18 minutes. In less than an hour you can reach the most fascinating and beautiful places in Tuscany.
