Farmhouse in Chianti - information
|
|

|
Without doubt, during your stay you will want to visit the famous
art cities such as Florence, Pisa and Siena. Florence is only 30 minutes
by train and the farm is only 2km from the local train station.
An unmissable view is from the yard of Chiesa di San Miniato a
Monte, a church that dates from the 13th Century and lords over
the city of Florence. |
 |
 |
It is possible to book a visit
to the Uffizi Gallery by calling +39 055 294883.
In addition to the wealth of art and history to be found in Florence,
the city also offers the world's best shopping with boutiques such
as Prada, Gucci, and Florence's own Emilio Pucci.

Sightseeing in the area
If you would like to spend a day
by the sea we suggest the coast resort of Marina di Pisa
with beaches and services at a reasonable cost, or Livorno which
has rocks and blue sea.
For a day in the country with art we suggest a visit to Fiesole,
a hill top town. It has museums, churches and wonderful villas.
Here, in The Convent of San Domenico lived the monk and famous painter
Beato Angelico.
If you have some spare time, do not miss the Vallombrosa
Abbey, a real master piece surrounded by a beautiful countryside.
Carry on towards Mugello-Valdisieve, during the journey which is about
30 km, you will find Borgo San Lorenzo, famous for white truffles,
Marradi and Vicchio, birth place of Giotto (a visit to his
home is a must), and Beato Angelico to whom there is dedicated
a museum. |
