Spring Renewal Nurture Retreat
Stay in a gorgeous 19th-century private villa nestled in the picturesque Tuscan countryside, just south of Florence. Surrounded by lush pinewoods and serene woodlands, this historic villa was once part of a grand estate where horses were bred. It exudes the timeless charm of an era when noble families would retreat to the countryside to oversee the land and enjoy its tranquil beauty.
The villa's prime location makes it an ideal base for exploring the region. Visit the city of Lucca, renowned hilltop towns like Certaldo and San Gimignano with its iconic towers, or the charming village of Montaione. You’ll also find the beautiful beaches, the historic city of Pisa, and the rejuvenating thermal baths of Montecatini within easy reach. Conveniently accessible from both Pisa and Florence airports, the villa offers the perfect blend of seclusion and connectivity.
We hope you can join us. ONLY 1 DOUBLE ROOM LEFT!!
