If youre looking for an inspirational setting for your holiday, look no further than Villa Falti. A recently restored farmhouse positioned on the grounds of a castle and surrounded by idyllic Chianti countryside, its pretty special. And this is the place to immerse yourselves in true Tuscan country style. The villa itself is one of five properties on the castle estate (including the delightful Casale Brigida). Boasting bountiful olive groves, vineyards and even saffron fields, there are so many ways to explore the vast grounds, and the castle itself. You can even join a tour of the castle, where youll get the chance to step into the ancient underground cellars for a tipple of the estates renowned wine. But, firstly, to the villa. A beautifully renovated farmhouse complete with rustic wooden beams and typical Tuscan furnishings, its elegant yet cosy and comfortable. Villa Falti comprises the main villa with seven beautiful and spacious bedrooms, seven shower rooms and an independent annex with two additional bedrooms. Its the ideal place for an extended family or group of friends to enjoy the villa and its surroundings. If you can manage to draw yourselves away from the gently sloping hills of Chianti and enter your villa, youll be pleased you did. The kitchen is stylish, generously-sized and undoubtedly ample for cooking up a big Italian feast, using all the seasonal produce available to you of course. Theres even a farm shop on-site - cinnamon jam anyone? But, if youre not quite in the mood for cooking, no worries, theres a restaurant in the grounds too - another opportunity to taste all that lovely olive oil and wine. This is a self-catering family holiday made easy. If you want to take a night off from cooking, you can; if youve run out of anything, theres a shop on-site, if youre looking for things to do, theres plenty. You can even take cookery classes - and who wouldnt want to in Italy! For the kids (and you, of course), theres a lovely private swimming pool where you can enjoy breathtaking views out towards the ancient walls of Castello del Trebbio. Or, just amble around the grounds. With so much of it to explore, youll never tire of this beautiful, natural haven. #### Features Ground Floor (split-level) - Living room with satellite TV - Dining room - Large and well-equipped kitchen - Shower room - Bedroom with double/twin bed - Bedroom with double/twin bed and shower room - Access to the outside summer veranda First Floor - Two bedrooms with double beds and air-conditioning - Three bedrooms with double/twin beds and air-conditioning - Five shower rooms Separate Annexe - Living room - Two bedrooms - Two shower rooms Outside Grounds - Swimming pool in the grounds, complete with decking and sun loungers (open approximately May to end-September) - Front garden - Summer veranda for al-fresco dining - Castle estate grounds with vineyards, olive groves, saffron fields and...a castle - Private parking Facilities - Wi-Fi - Air-conditioning (upstairs bedrooms) - Fans (downstairs bedrooms) - Heating - Satellite TV #### Location Tuscany is as beautiful as everyone would have you believe and nowhere is that more evident than in this region, just north-east of Florence. Rolling hills, scattered olive groves and ancient vineyards, medieval hilltop towns and those iconic cypress trees - its one place thats worthy of the much-used phrase awe-inspiring. So, exploring the Fiesole hills of this area, where Villa Falti is tucked away, is special indeed. The local village is 2km away (a 4-minute drive or half-hour walk if you dont mind the walk uphill on the way!) with grocery shops, pizzeria, an ATM and a pharmacy. Fiesole (15km) is a small, sleepy town with a petite piazza and some cafes - a lovely way to spend a lazy summers day, but its the drive through Tuscan countryside hills to see it, and the views over Florence, that are the real highlights. Only 18km from Florence, this striking town is a must-see. The birthplace of the Italian Renaissance - its bursting with culture, art, history and beauty. Whether its the terracotta-tiled dome of the cathedral, the masterpieces in the Uffizi Gallery or the camera-ready Ponte Vecchio at dusk, there will always be something else to do. Or, you could just sit at one of the stylish bars and watch the world go by...
