This farmhouse, built in the 16th century, is paradise. There’s a Tuscan travertine infinity pool and a bowling green to keep the kids and adults entertained. And there are several terraces to enjoy the spectacular views of the surrounding vineyards and Apennines. More of those wonderful vistas can be enjoyed inside with its traditional furnishings and character features such as stone walls and beams. We love that all the bedrooms here are en-suite too. Surrounded by olive groves and fields of lavender, this area is perfect for leisurely strolls. Located a short drive from the beautiful, fortified village of Barberino Val d'Elsa, you’ll find plenty to see, including the Palazzo Pretorio.
