The quintessential Tuscan farmhouse

6 Guests

Tucked away in a secluded hillside to the southeast of Florence, Il Soglio is everything you might have dreamed about when planning the perfect Tuscan escape: space aplenty, a warm, welcoming ambience, terracotta floors, wood-beamed ceilings, an inspiring country kitchen, and a pair of shady terraces with tranquil views over the surrounding olive groves and valley below. And then, hidden away in the grounds, is a stylish pool.

The Area

Surrounded by tranquil, verdant hills, and yet just 10km (as the crow flies) away from Florence, Il Soglio is ideal for anyone wishing to relax in seclusion while still being irresistibly close to one of Italy's most iconic and fascinating cities.

The capital of Tuscany, with its world-famous architecture, its artistic treasures, and its vibrant restaurant and café life is a 30-minute drive away, but it may be easier, in terms of parking and navigation, to head over to Scandicci (a 10-minute drive) and then hop on one of the frequent trams into the centre, which take about 20 minutes.

In terms of beaches, the coastline around Marina di Pisa (1 hour approx.) is home to long, quiet stretches of sand, vibrant resorts and interesting towns, including Viareggio and Livorno.

Drives of about 1 hour to the west and southwest will take you to some of Tuscany's other gorgeous cities and towns, including Pisa, Lucca and Siena.

Some 30-to-45 minutes south of Siena, meanwhile, is the Val d'Orcia, whose villages and towns - Montalcino, Pienza, Bagno Vignoni and Montepulciano, to name but a few - are renowned for their wonderfully preserved mediaeval centres, their wines and cheeses, and the scenic landscapes that surround them.

An illustration of a guest book

The setting and amenities at Il Soglio were most enjoyable. We have treasured memories of the scenery and our good times at the patio. Wine and pasta does it every time. The kitchen is well equipped, there's plenty of outdoor seating, neatly kept grounds, and excellent vistas.
