Chiodo

The restoration honours the villa's farmhouse origins whilst introducing modern comforts throughout. Air-conditioned bedrooms, each with private bathrooms and portable cooling units, provide personal retreats after days exploring. The bedrooms on the last floor are ideal for young adults, teenagers and children. The well-equipped kitchen caters to serious cooking, whilst high-standard furnishings create comfortable living spaces. Owners who know Tuscany well have anticipated every need, including reliable internet for those mixing work with escape.

Outside, a pergola shades the dining table where meals stretch long into warm evenings, overlooking the valley below. The grounds unfold around the panoramic swimming pool, maintained with an ozone system for chlorine-free swimming. A barbecue stands ready for grilling local produce, whilst the maintained gardens provide peaceful corners for reading or simply taking in the views that stretch across the Tuscan landscape.

Days here balance exploration with relaxation. Pisa lies 25 kilometres away, whilst the Versilia coast offers beach escapes within easy reach. Florence's galleries and architecture await 74 kilometres distant, and local wine estates dot the surrounding countryside. Tennis courts 4 kilometres away provide active options, though many find the pool and gardens reason enough to stay put, watching the light change across the hills from morning coffee to evening aperitif.
