Salvadonica - Borgo del Chianti  

Tucked into the rolling hills of Chianti in San Casciano in Val di Pesa, near Mercatale Val di Pesa. About 4 km from the town center and an easy jump to Florence sights like Piazzale Michelangelo, Pitti Palace and Ponte Vecchio. Roughly 8.5 km from Antinori nel Chianti Classico and about 23 km from the Uffizi Gallery.

A family-friendly farm stay with 28 individually decorated rooms featuring minibars, espresso makers, flat-screen TVs, slippers and private bathrooms.
