This beautiful ancient Hayloft ,recently restored, is part of the “ Fattoria Il Leccio” lived and owned by the Passigli family for four generations. It sits on top of a hill overlooking the Valle del Mugnone,a gorgeous valley that offers panoramic views of gently slopping hills cultivated with well-tended olive groves as well as views of the town of Fiesole and the city of Florence. Giovanni Boccaccio in his 13th Century Decameron, locates some of his stories in this valley.
Public transportation, (bus and train) are available at the bottom of the hill in the village of Caldine. It is a 10/15 minute walk through the hilly bucolic countryside. The train, a 12 minute ride from the Fiesole /Caldine station to Santa Maria Novella station in the center of Florence, runs approximately every hour. The buses, a 30 minute ride, also take you into Florence. There is little public transportation after 8pm. Caldine has a supermarket as well as post office and bank. It also has doctor and ambulance service. Please contact us for further details.

Wohnen in der Nähe von Florenz
Das Objekt liegt verkehrstechnisch günstig in der Nähe von Florenz, Lebensmittel müssen allerdings mit dem Auto über eine recht beschwerlich Straße in die Ferienwohnung geschafft werden. Das Objekt ist schön gelegen, die Straßenverhältnisse sind sehr schwierig, auf die Gefährlichkeit der Straße sollte hingewiesen werden.

Tuscany villa
My family and I had a great time in the countryside at this beautiful villa. The advertisement is accurate. I would stay here again.

A dream come true in Tuscany.
The hayloft was so delightful - from the comfortable bedrooms with bathrooms, the quaint kitchen, living area, the outdoor courtyard for viewing the hillsides, and the whole setting. Andrea and Lorenzo were the nicest, very helpful. Andrea knows the area so well, he is a wealth of information for your visit. We were able to buy some of the olive oil they make right on the farm, and have it shipped home. We felt like family and had everything we needed. Florence is a short train ride from the village down the hill. Lots to do, it was a hilight of our trip!
