Do you have a question about this home or the local area?

With stunning rolling hill views from the pool area, this villa certainly places you in the heart of the Tuscan countryside. You've got plenty of places to relax here, with the alfresco dining area being a favourite of ours – combine the gorgeous local weather with an authentic local spread. It's worth noting that at capacity, two guests will be on a sofa bed in the living area – they'll need to enter a bedroom to use the ensuite, as there are no separate bathrooms here. Despite the rural location, you'll find yourself close to several towns, and Florence is just a short drive away.

  • No time for average – We reject thousands of homes worldwide, so you don't have to.
  • Hosts we know – With track records of high-quality hosting.

Home truths

    Since the photoshoot, the home has undergone some renovations. The living areas may look slightly different from the photos.

    Staff live in the quarters next to the house. They will tend to the pool and garden.

    You will be served a complimentary breakfast on your first morning.

    At full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living area. As the bathrooms are ensuite, this will involve entering other guests' bedrooms to access the bathrooms.

    The pool isn't fenced. If you're bringing little ones, they'll need to be supervised at all times.

    Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car or a driver to get the most out of your stay. You might also find that the phone signal is patchy from time to time.

It might not make the headlines like nearby Florence or Lucca, but Pistoia is just as packed with culture, history and Tuscan charm. Those who visit will find the Piazza del Duomo could rival the Santa Maria del Fiore in Florence and the bar-filled Piazza della Sala could give the squares of Bologna a run for their money as the ideal spot for aperitivo. In the historic streets, restaurants offer...
