A forty-minute drive from Florence, and close to Chianti’s many world-class wineries, this villa is in a superb spot for getting to know Tuscany. When you’re not busy exploring one of Italy’s best-loved regions, this characterful farmhouse provides a picturesque place to relax. Swim in the pool, surrounded by lush greenery. Share alfresco lunches and barbecues on the terrace. Or enjoy a spot of friendly competition over a game of table tennis or pool. It’s also a great pick for groups, with one bedroom having independent access from the garden (providing a little extra privacy).

Local guide
About Coverciano
Coverciano is perhaps best known as a football hub – it’s home to training grounds for Italian national teams, and a football history museum. Although not a traditional tourist spot, it’s well connected to Florence on public transport, and the hillside villages Maiano and Fiesole are accessible by bus or a short drive. It also has a fair share of local restaurants where you're more likely to find local familes...
