The Bacco II Apartment in Florence

Wonderful apartment in an historic farm house with a pool, 10 km from Florence

The Bacco II apartment is one of five splendid apartments created within a historic farm house nestled in the heart of the Tuscan countryside, which has been recently refurbished and renovated for agro-tourism. The structure, built progressively over a period of almost five centuries, is surrounded by a large garden with swimming pool and fields lined with vines, characteristics which make this the perfect choice for families or groups wishing for a relaxing holiday. Please note that the Bacco II apartment is located 10 km from Florence, therefore we recommend the use of a vehicle to discover the area and visit Florence itself. For those who would rather not have to use a car when on holiday, the area is also accessible via train from Florence's train station SMN (17 minute ride).

The apartment:

Renovated in a style true to the spirit of this historic property, the Bacco II apartment is located in the accommodation originally reserved for the farmworkers' supervisor. The interior design brings together simplicity and elegance, while keeping alive the memory of rural Tuscan traditions. Romantic wooden ceilings and terracotta flooring highlights the natural gracefulness of the building, ornamented by rustic and chic furnishings. On the ground floor there is the living-room area, dominated by a large fireplace, and furnished with a rustic table, chairs, armchairs, a sofa bed, TV set and a welcoming open-plan kitchen. A romantic and evocative atmosphere infuses both bedrooms, which are located on the first floor and accessible via an old stone staircase. The master bedroom has access to a private bathroom with a shower, while the second bedroom is furnished with 2 single beds (a third bed can be added should the need arise) and a wardrobe. On the same level there is a second bathroom with a shower and also a steep set of stairs which lead to the "pensatoio", traditionally the study alcove, from where you can enjoy breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding hills. The Bacco II apartment also enjoys a private exterior area equipped with a table, chairs and a bench.

The Bacco II apartment also offers access to a communal open air swimming pool, to be shared with the other four apartments on the estate, as well as independent heating, wireless Internet access, dishwasher and a BBQ.

Guests who stay in this apartment can also take advantage of the additional laundry and valet services, which are available upon request at an extra fee.

The Bacco II apartment is a magical place, rich in atmosphere, and perfect to relax and spend a magnificent Tuscan holiday!
