Charmed in Chianti

A stay at this Florentine country villa promises rustic charm and sweeping views. Just a short drive from the historic Empoli, you can explore local restaurants before retreating to the villa’s garden for a glass of Chianti. With the pool, outdoor dining area, and two lounges, there's plenty of space for a large group to unwind. There’s also a separate cottage available – ideal for larger groups or anyone seeking a little extra privacy. This villa dates back to 1000 AD, so you can expect lots of traditional features here. And while the garden is a picturesque spot to while away your days, Florence is less than an hour away if you’re hoping for a dose of cosmopolitan culture.
