From the traditional features to the soft lighting and personal touches, there’s an abundance of charm and character here. It feels authentically Italian – inviting you to slow down and savour the richness of the moment. So whether you’re gazing at the views from the upstairs bedroom, cooking a simple supper in the cosy kitchen or sharing a glass of wine by the fire, you’ll feel serenaded by the sweetness of this home. Outside, days can be spent lounging by the pool or roaming through the countryside (look out for the wild dear, goats and hares). There are some beautiful walks here, while the vineyards and idyllic villages of the Chianti region are all within driving distance.

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...
