Summer in Porcigliano
 |
The vacation rental
Traces of a farm called Porcigliano have been found since the renaissance period. The house was originally built on the ruins of the medieval tower of Porcigliano and used by the farmers who cultivated the countryside surrounding it.
When our family bought Porcigliano in 1999, it was in terrible disrepair. Since then we have restored the house of using only local and environmentally compatible materials.
On the first floor the three double rooms are spacious, cosy, with very comfortable bathrooms and a beautiful view over the valley.
Each room has its own style, and it has been furnished with old family’s furniture.
There is a kitchen/breakfast room where we will offer a rich continental breakfast with most of the products coming from local organic farming.
During the warm season you can take breakfast in the garden.
There is also a kitchen garden with organic production of seasonal vegetables that characterize our simple and genuine cooking. |

Several typical tuscan trattories are in a short distance.
Less than half an hour drive to Florence.
Fiesole is approx 15 minute's drive and 10 minutes to Borgo San Lorenzo.
One day excursion: Siena and San Gimignano (90 km) - Pisa or Lucca
(100 km).
Highway A1 - Barberino di Mugello exit is 24 km from the house.
