About this property

App. Saladin B & B in an old villa, wifi and parking, meals, services available

Located in Impruneta, in the Florentine Chianti area, the Appartamento Saladino is a spacious one bedroom apartment located in an authentic 16th century manor house, Villa Saladini, an authentic testimony of Renaissance Tuscany.
The interior of the Villa, the magnificent living room with a stone fireplace and the small chapel with the family tombs, as well as the other rooms furnished with a rich collection of antiques, can be visited free of charge on request.
The property is surrounded by a large park with lawns and shady areas under the pines and secular cedars, beyond which there are hectares of olive groves.
Free WiFi and private parking.

Despite being surrounded by greenery, the Villa is located less than 1km from the town center, shops, restaurants and all kinds of amenities.
There is also a convenient bus line that connects the town directly with the center of Florence. There is a bus stop right outside the entrance gate.
The car is therefore not necessary to visit Florence, while it is recommended if you want to explore the countryside and the small villages of Chianti.

If you come by car, the Villa is located a few kilometers from the main roads and is in a perfect position to explore Tuscany.
We are located just 7 km from the "Firenze - Impruneta" exit of the A1 motorway and from the beginning of the highway that connects Florence with Siena.
From here you can easily reach all the places of cultural interest and the most beautiful places in Tuscany

Appartamento Saladino is a comfortable one-bedroom apartment of about 65 square meters consisting of:
• Bedroom with king size bed,
• Bathroom with shower and washing machine
• Large living room with sofa bed, armchairs and a matching sofa, flat-screen TV, kitchen with oven and dishwasher and dining area with table and 4 chairs.

Terracotta floors and high ceilings with exposed beams.
All furniture and paintings on the walls are old and belong to our family collection.
The walls are thicker than 50 cm, as was customary in the past this type of buildings to ensure a cool even in the hottest summers.
Appartamento Saladino is located on the ground floor of the Villa.
In front of the entrance door there is a table with 4 chairs for outdoor dining.
In the garden you will also find various sun loungers to relax in the shade of the old trees or in the large sunny lawn.
Let us introduce ourselves:
We are Perla and Marco, we are married and we live in the Villa with our two children, Bernardo and Beatrice.
The Villa belongs to our family for many generations, ever since it was built over 500 years ago and has a special charm.
We love this place and we will show it to you!

We do our best to make guests feel as if they were at home.
Upon your arrival we will welcome you with maps of Florence and Chianti, tourist information including opening hours of the main museums, some useful guides, bus timetables, etc.
We also offer a discount at some of the best restaurants in the area.

Hoping to meet all your needs, we are organized to offer several additional services on request: homemade breakfast and dinner, car with driver for Chianti tours or guided tours, wine tastings, professional cooking lessons (we have an agreement with a cooking school to have a professional chef who teaches private lessons in the kitchen of the Villa), non-professional cooking lessons (Perla will be happy to teach you how to prepare homemade pasta), guided tours in Florence with a professional guide, service shuttle to and from the airport or the station ... and much more.
If you decide to book, we will send you a detailed list of all services with prices and if you want more, try asking and we will try to accommodate you.

Come and visit us: you will like it very much !!

Beautiful Tuscany
Marco and Perla, we cannot thank you enough for your work to make our stay so enjoyable. You showed us true hospitality and Marco taking us early into town was so wonderful. Thank you for a great holiday in Tuscany!!

In der Vila Saladini in Impruneta fühlt man sich fast wie in einem Museum
Am Ortsausgang von Impruneta findet man die Vila Saladini in einem fast verwunschenen Garten mit einem alten Brunnen. Unser Appartment war fast wie ein kleines Museum, vor der Tür konnte man im Garten sitzen, auf dem Grundstück sind 500 Olivenbäume. Ein Kochkurs mit Perla ist unbedingt zu empfehlen! Die Lage ist gut, Florenz kann man mit dem Linienbus von Impruneta, andere Ziele der Toskana gut mit dem Auto erreichen.

Wonderful
My husband and I drove though Italy for two weeks. This was one of the most comfortable places we stayed. I wish we could have stayed longer. Everything in our apartment worked perfectly. And you say of course it should --but when I think of a 500 year old home that is quite an accomplishment! Our house in NY is 100 years old and it can be a challenge! Perla and Marco were most helpful and kind.I hope to visit again.

Caratteristica
Villa storica, immersa nella natura. Proprietari disponibili e gentili. Appartamento abbastanza funzionale. Con l’arrivo dell’imbrunire è meglio munirsi di torcia per raggiungere l’abitazione, il tratto casa - parcheggio ahimè è completamente sfornito di elettricità

Perfect stay!
A beautifull villa in a mesmerizing surrounding combined with the hospitality made our week superb. We had a typical tuscan diner 3 times in the villa (or outside) and I am sure the family can teach you how to make it as well. Located in the middle of the Chianti, with a nice 18 holes Golf in 10 minutes we should have stayed longer. We'll be back!

I live in Impruneta, a small town at the edge of Chianti, a few kilometers from Florence.
I'm married with Marco, who manages with me the apartments we rent.
The Villa where we live belonged to our family for generations and we love it.
We have 2 wonderful kids: Bernardo and Beatrice, they are the joy of our life.
We like countryside, good food and good wine ... we wait for you!

Why they chose this property

Marco and I have decided to rent to have an income that allows us to keep the property and not to sell it.
We did not want to be us to sell a property that belongs to our family for 500 years!

What makes this property unique

This place is more unique than rare. It is a place with an ancient soul, a place where time has stopped and we are proud and glad to be able to share it.
