Nestled in the Tuscan countryside of Casalguidi in Pistoia, this charming home offers a tranquil escape surrounded by nature. The country house is traditional and rustic, with a large fenced garden that boasts a brick barbecue for alfresco dining. There are hammocks to doze in while the kids play foosball, table tennis, and basketball. Perfect for outdoorsy travellers, this home is in a great spot for hiking and cycling trips. At full occupancy, three guests will sleep on sofa beds in the living spaces – for more privacy, we’d stick to a guest count of eleven.
