Property Description

The Frantoio delle Grazie accommodation is a pleasant and relaxing alternative to visit Florence outside the city itself. The Villa is composed by six flats, for a total capacity of 20 guests. Guests can easily reach downtown (by car, by bicycle or by public transport) and enjoy Tuscan countryside pleasures as well. The Frantoio delle Grazie is only 5 minutes drive from the A1 highway exit “Firenze Sud” (South Florence); The hill of Settignano is the natural frame for this panoramic area protected by Italian Superintendency of Cultural Heritage and Environment. Its natural surrounding is dominated by olive groves, vineyards, cypresses and oak-trees. It is only 3 Km from Florence historical city center; nearest shopping center is at only 1 Km.

The Villa is a traditional Florentine countryside home: its structure goes back to the XVIth Century. The recent restoration has maintained its original aspect and joined the ancient character together with modern amenities. The charming Florentine atmosphere of Il Frantoio delle Grazie is revealed through the use of typical Tuscan materials as stone, terracotta tiles, beams showing and wrought iron. The interior decoration and the choice of furniture (ancient and period pieces) are in harmony with the regional taste. Every detail has been studied to let you enjoy a pleasant and elegant welcome. The ancient rural rooms, such as the grindstone for olives and the wine cellar, have retained their historical charme.

ADSL connection available: the owner provides in each apt a cable for the Lan connection, also available WI-FI Internet connection; both free of charge.

  Appartamento Melograni

Excellent 5 /5

We had a lovely stay at Il Frantoio Delle Grazie. Our apartment was very clean and had lots of old world charm. The grounds were beautiful and we made ample use of the outdoor patio area and grill. Although this didn't bother us, we could hear the train pass by. It wasn't loud but we were aware of it. Also, the 900 meter walk to the bus stop and train station felt longer, perhaps because the walk along road just outside the gates is extremely narrow and we were nervous about cars coming around the corner and not seeing us.

  Appartamento Uva

Excellent 5 /5

This property offered us everything we required - a beautiful setting, clean rooms, affordability, close proximity to Florence/Fiesole and very comfortable accommodation. The owner has restored this Tuscan farmhouse magnificently. He was very friendly and welcoming and was happy to offer help in choosing the best local restaurants. The swimming pool was not in use when we were there (it was mid-April and too cold to be used in any case).

  Appartamento Uva

Excellent 5 /5

We had a fantastic holiday in Firenze and our stay at appartment Uva made it all the more enjoyable. It has the best of both worlds, near enough to the city centre, whilst also being set in the beautiful Tuscan countryside. We had worried that without hiring a car it would be tricky for us to see everything and get to our countryside accomodation but it was all easy accessible by a walk and a trip on bus number 14 from Via Ripa. Simone, the owner, was so helpful and provided us with everything we needed, even reserving us tickets for the Uffizi. We would also strongly recommend visiting Sienna whilst in Florence as it was absolutely mind blowing and easy to get to by bus. All in all a trip full of fantastic memories, thank you x

  Appartamento Fichi

Excellent 5 /5

Great place and great apartment with wonderful swimming pool. The manager (Simone) was also great. The Villa was a little ways from Florence central, but there was a bus within about 10 minute walk from villa. The only real negative was the walk to the villa was along a very narrow enclosed road that you had to deal with cars and walking was a little dangerous. Great place, though.

  Appartamento Uva

Very Good 4 /5

This villa was in an excellent location--just a bus trip into the center of Florence, yet you also felt like you were in the hills. Private setting with very nice gardens and pool. Besides our apartment there were other spaces available for relaxing. We traveled with two college students who wanted to travel to other cities as well, so we were on the road a lot. My husband and I would have liked to spend more time at the villa given the serenity it provided.

Excellent 5 /5

We had a great time staying in this apartment! The only thing we regret is opening our window at night to listen to the stream right outside of our bedroom window. Our baby got attacked by mosquitoes while she was sleeping. So be sure to close all the windows at night! Other than that it was a wonderful vacation and we would highly recommend it!
