Arrival day: Saturday Car hire: Recommended
This wonderful stone-clad building dates back to 1400 and is perfectly positioned on one of the rolling hills in the super Tuscan countryside with Florence, Pisa, San Gimignano and Siena all within easy reach. The estate stands alone and has been carefully landscaped with indigenous olive groves shimmering in the sun and typical rows of tall cypress trees lining the entrance – a real picture postcard. The property is surrounded by immaculate gardens where you may enjoy the glorious sunshine or take to the shade under one of the many ancient trees.
The sparkling pool with sun terraces furnished with umbrellas and sunbeds will tempt you at all times of the day though we hope that you will find the time to venture out to visit some of the nearby towns and villages. For the more energetic, a tennis court is at your disposal for a few sets to work up an appetite for some tasty Italian fare.
The seven charming apartments are all beautifully restored and furnished in true Tuscan style - each one is slightly different in its design but all offering a high standard of accommodation and elegance with beautiful local terracotta floors, exposed beams, original brick-work, pretty fabrics and comfortable sofas for lounging in the cool! The bedrooms are all spacious with beamed ceilings and the kitchens are all decorated in the Italian country-style with hob, oven, fridge freezer and dishwasher (Guicciardini is the only kitchen without the latter).
