Poggio a Mandria

Poggio a Mandria is a lovingly restored Tuscan villa in a spectacular setting, surrounded by olive groves with wonderful views over the Valdarno. It offers spacious and comfortable accommodation for those seeking a relaxing holiday in the heart of nature, whether with family or friends. Both indoors and outdoors, there are inviting spaces for relaxation and socialising, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The picturesque village of Montegonzi can be reached on foot in about 20 minutes via a steep path. It offers a small grocery shop and one restaurant. In Cavriglia, only ten minutes away by car, and slightly further in Montevarchi with its large supermarkets, you will find a wider range of amenities. The Montevarchi Terranuova train station provides direct trains to Florence, a stress-free way to visit the Renaissance city. The towns and wineries of the Chianti Classico are within easy reach, and Siena, Arezzo, Cortona, Lake Trasimeno and the UNESCO-recognised Val d’Orcia are wonderful options for unforgettable day trips. The stone villa stands in well-maintained gardens with terracotta planters filled with colourful flowers. A covered terrace with dining table and chairs next to the house offers an ideal spot for al fresco meals. The pool area is separated from the garden by a fence, offering peace of mind to families with small children. A pergola nearby is furnished with comfortable seating and is perfect for relaxation. The three-storey villa has been sensitively restored, preserving original features such as wooden beamed ceilings and exposed stone floors. There are two kitchens, one modern on the ground floor with direct access to the dining terrace, and a traditional kitchen with a large table on the first floor. The bedrooms are individually styled, and one ground-floor bedroom with ensuite bathroom is suitable for guests with reduced mobility. The friendly owner lives with his dog about 80 metres away on the estate.
