Situated amidst the rolling hills and sweeping meadows of enchanting Tuscany, this achingly beautiful townhouse promises an endlessly relaxing stay filled with all of the timeless charm of rural Italian living. There's so much to love about the home, from the traditional features to the art objects and modern styling. We think you'll spend most of your time soaking up the warm weather by your private swimming pool. With sun loungers, a cabana and a furnished summer house, you'll be spoilt for choice when deciding on a spot to enjoy your afternoon Aperol from. Complete with an outdoor shower, barbecue and a beautiful dining area, the garden and communal space are perfectly suited for balmy summer evenings spent dining alfresco with your family and friends. Stepping inside, you'll find a wonderfully bright and open living space that you can quickly make your own. We love the warmth of the orange-painted walls, wooden flooring and timber beams that are reassuringly rustic and homely. There's plenty of modern comfort here too. Flop down on the sumptuous modular sofa, or perch at the sociable breakfast bar for a quick coffee as you map out plans for the day ahead. When it's time to head out, take a short stroll to the typical Tuscan village of Pontassieve, for mini-markets selling local produce, shops and excellent restaurants. And, you can't take a trip to Tuscany without visiting Florence, just thirty minutes away by car.

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...
