Podere Torricella

Perched on the Chianti hills in Montespertoli, this working farm stay looks over olive groves and vineyards. It’s about a 15-minute drive to Montegufoni Castle and roughly 20 km from Florence’s historic centre, with Pitti Palace, Ponte Vecchio and the Uffizi within easy reach.

Set around a 13th-century tower with large gardens and an outdoor pool, the vibe is rustic-chic with modern comforts. Nine guestrooms feature full kitchens (fridge/freezer and stovetop), 21-inch flat-screen TVs, coffee/tea makers, irons and complimentary Wi‑Fi—expect olive-scented mornings and garden views.

Soak in the outdoor swimming pool, book an onsite massage, or fire up the barbecue in the picnic area after a game of ping-pong. Tour/ticket assistance helps arrange Chianti excursions, and there’s free self-parking plus a roundtrip airport shuttle for a surcharge.

Complimentary wireless internet across the property, luggage storage and laundry facilities keep stays smooth for work-or-play visitors.

An on-site restaurant serves local Tuscan cuisine, and continental breakfasts are available for a fee—perfect before heading out to taste the region.
