Profile |
Donnini, a Tuscan village just 29kms South East of Florence, overlooks the fascinating Valley of Vicano and slopes down to the distant offshoots of Pontassieve. Here, just off the main square, is the Casa del Forno - a stunning location for a beautiful, elegant and charming villa, owned by local baker, talented tenor and true Renaissance man, Sandro Benini. The Casa is a unique combination of comfort and sophistication. It is exquisitely furnished in traditional Florentine style - its frescoes, antique furniture, superbly landscaped gardens, terraces and panoramic swimming pool all blend sublimely into the beauty of its surroundings. Most importantly Sandro's warm and generous hospitality will provide you with an authentic and unforgettable experience of the best of Tuscan living. |
The property consists of two separate buildings: the main building and the old barn. The two apartments in the main building overlook a picturesque inner yard and the hills; the old barn is provided with a private swimming pool and offers a unique panoramic view over the whole valley.
The two buildings are joined by an inner court yard. Our guests can find among statues, cypresses and flowers a place in the sun or in the shade to read and talk. Among the services offered in the Casa del Forno are a laundry room with two washing machines, a clothes dryer and ironing equipment. |
Cots and high chairs for children are available on request; pets are welcome upon request in the low season only. It is possible to book tickets for museums, theatres and concerts in Florence, Verona and Arezzo. Welcome hamper on arrival is also provided.. |
