Il Mulino di Pianello  

Just outside Vicchio, about 5 km from the town center. This pet-friendly villa sits within driving distance of Florence highlights named as nearby — Academy Gallery, Piazza del Duomo and the Medici Chapels — and is roughly 14 minutes by car from Giotto's House.

Garden views and a simple, practical villa layout make this a relaxed base for exploring. The place is self-catering with a full-sized refrigerator/freezer, oven and digital TV; rollaway beds are available for a surcharge and housekeeping is provided once per stay. Pets are allowed and free on-site parking is included.

Wi-Fi is available throughout, plus free self-parking and barbecue grills in the garden. Enjoy easy evenings in front of the TV or al fresco meals after a day of sightseeing.

A fully equipped kitchen lets you cook at will and the on-site barbecue area invites relaxed outdoor meals. Local restaurants and Tuscan flavors are a short drive away for those who want to dine out.
