Description

My parents and I run "Villa Il Paradisino", a XV century Historic House situated in Tuscany,Italy, just outside Florence city. It is part of a 5 hectares estate which includes a XVI century Villa where the family lives since 1839. In the 2004 the Villa has been completely and lovingly restored and opened to all the guests that would like to see, live and participate in our life, visit Florence and the beautiful country villages of Tuscany.

Life at Villa Il Paradisino is unhurried , filled with the scents, flavors and furnishings of a past that is still alive.

The villa is surrounded by rows of grapes and olive trees, interspersed with centuries-old vegetation: ancient species of fruit trees, vegetable garden, flower gardens and meadows. Our farm produces extra virgin olive oil, red wine, organic vegetable, eggs, fruit, jams and other home made products available for our guests.

The complex is furnished with original Tuscan antiques and ceramics owned by our family for generations .

We rent 5 apartments, elegant and spacious, which contain modern conveniences. The pastel wall colors, the four-poster bed and the ancient terracotta floor tiles, contribute to creating a special atmosphere and warmth in the rooms.
