Charming country house in the Florentine hills

A country style and classy eco retreat surrounded by olive trees and valley views located in the characteristic Florence hills. It offers a genuine Tuscan experience in a relaxing and comfortable yet charming atmosphere. An excellent starting point to visit Florence and the renowned historical cities in Tuscany; also the ideal place to enjoy peace, quietness, and the back to nature atmosphere to rediscover feelings and emotions often forgotten.
The property is just 25 minutes panoramic drive away from Florence and the Etruscan village of Fiesole; was built on the remains of an ancient medieval tower and was renovated in 2000 following the principle of "Green building”. It seats in a rural setting of 3 hectares with olives trees and a wine yard, offering relaxing spaces and amazing views. The house develops over two floors and it measures 165 square meters. On the first floor a cozy sitting area, a balcony, and the three spacious and bright en suite bedrooms that offers gorgeous views out over the hills. The furniture is a harmonious combination of ancient, modern and traditional. On the ground floor the large stone, fully equipped kitchen and the beautiful veranda overlooking a large and lush garden full of aromas.

The caretaker was the BEST!

Really we really love our villa! But more importantly, our caretaker, Jacopo, was the most friendly and accommodating person. I would highly recommend this location.

Unforgettable Tuscan holiday staying in a wonderful, characterful house and garden with lovely views

Jacopo was a great host and very helpful at all times. Also very generous with his produce from his vegetable garden ! The house is full of character with a lovely large Tuscan country kitchen. The dining area is light and airy with beautiful views over the Tuscan countryside. Polcanto is a great area for exploring and reaching locations such as Florence, Siena and Bologna. There is plenty to see and do and there is quick access to the large lake for swimming and cooling down in the Tuscan sun. We would definitely go back for holiday here. Paul, Eve and family
