Beautiful Large Villa Near Florence Next to Famous Winery

About The Experience

This beautiful villa is located next to a famous winery (with a good restaurant) and is close to Florence. It is a good location for other day trips throughout Tuscany. The villa has a private swimming pool and is great for a large group of friends and families. There is another villa with pool on the same estate, Villa Brigida, which is also available for rental.

Location Description

The villa is located two kilometers from the nearest town of Santa Brigida where there are shops, restaurants, a post office, church, and pharmacy. Fiesole, just to the north, has a history that goes straight back to Etruscan times, evidenced in the remains of ancient city walls, and in the middle ages was actually a rival of Florence for power until it was sacked. Today it is a "magical" place, famed for its part in E.M. Forster's "A Room With A View." You can find the remains of Roman baths and a theatre, as well as a medieval castle (restored in 1865). Of course the primary attraction of the greater area is the majestic city of Florence, world-renowned for its art and culture. Go here to shop the Ponte Vecchio, marvel at the statue of David, or tour the wonders of the Uffizi Gallery. Other great day trip destinations include San Gimignano, Arezzo, and Siena.
