Property Summary

Nestled in the rolling hills of Tuscany, I Mandorli is a beautifully restored stone farmhouse offering an authentic and refined vacation rental experience just a few kilometres from Cortona, one of the most enchanting medieval towns in Italy. Originally renovated in 2003 by its current owners, who relocated from the city to embrace the tranquillity of the Tuscan countryside, the property has been carefully preserved to retain all the hallmark features of traditional rural architecture, including wooden-beamed ceilings and warm terracotta floors. Set within a working farm estate of approximately 6 hectares, the property is a living part of the local agricultural tradition, where the owners produce their own olive oil and wine, generously shared with guests throughout their stay. The grounds extend across a well-maintained yard of around 450 square metres, filled with roses, flowering shrubs, cypresses, and a magnificent old oak tree, creating a serene and picturesque setting.

Description

Property Summary

Nestled just outside Palaia, in the heart of Tuscany, Italy, Il Fienile is a beautifully restored farmhouse that offers an exceptional vacation rental experience in one of the region's most evocative landscapes. Originally an old farm shed, this property has been thoughtfully transformed by its owner with the guidance of professional restorers into a welcoming and elegant tourist residence that harmonizes seamlessly with the surrounding Tuscan countryside. From its privileged hilltop position, the property is embraced by rows of grapevines producing the celebrated local red wine, a sprawling olive grove, stately cypresses, and fragrant aromatic herbs, creating an atmosphere of authentic rural charm. The estate extends across a 1,500 square metre fully fenced garden, ensuring complete privacy throughout your stay. Guests benefit from a dedicated parking area finished in white gravel, shaded by a natural border of laurel, cypresses, larches, and pines, making arrival and departure effortless. Wireless internet connectivity is available throughout the property, keeping you connected while you enjoy the tranquility of the Tuscan hills. Prior to the start of each season, Il Fienile undergoes a thorough technical inspection to verify the accuracy of its description, the condition of all listed accessories, and the overall standard of quality, cleanliness, and comfort for every guest.

Outdoors

The outdoor spaces of Il Fienile are among its most captivating features, designed to invite relaxation and immersion in the natural beauty of the Pisan hills. A lawned garden surrounds the house, offering a serene setting for leisurely afternoons in the open air. The outdoor dining area provides the perfect setting for al fresco meals, while a dedicated barbecue area complete with a wood-fired pizza oven adds a distinctly convivial touch to evenings spent under the Tuscan sky. Adjacent to the house, a shaded pergola houses an attractive living area where you can unwind with a cocktail and savour the scents of the countryside drifting in from the surrounding landscape. The non-heated swimming pool is a true centrepiece of the property, set within the green lawn and positioned to offer a breathtaking panoramic view of the rolling Pisan hills and the medieval town of Palaia. Rectangular in shape, the pool measures 6 x 12 metres with a constant depth of 1.40 metres and features a recessed corner with Roman steps for easy water access, an electric cover, salt purification, and internal lighting. Its travertine border and sand-coloured PVC lining lend it an elegant aesthetic, while the surrounding solarium area in travertine is furnished with comfortable sunbeds shaded by 2 umbrellas. A solar-powered hot-water shower completes the pool area. Please note that the pool is open from the last Saturday in April to the first Saturday in October.

An additional swimming pool, available but not for the exclusive use of guests, is located approximately 50 meters from the farmhouse, near the annex where the owners reside. This pool has a rectangular shape measuring 12x6 meters with a variable depth ranging from 1.20 meters to 1.70 meters, and is also equipped with a cold water outdoor shower and a generous sunbathing area planted with lawn.

It should be noted that photo shoots are typically taken in spring, and therefore the colors and blooms of the gardens, lawns, and surrounding areas may differ at the time of your arrival.

Unit Layout

Buca delle Fate accommodates up to 8 guests across 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, distributed over 2 floors that together create a harmonious and well-proportioned living environment. The farmhouse is spread over two levels, with the main entrance on the ground floor opening directly onto the living area through a French door from the external pergola. On this floor, a welcoming living room, a dining area, and a spacious kitchen are thoughtfully arranged in a single open-plan space, creating a convivial heart to the home. The ground floor also features a single bedroom that communicates with a double bedroom, and the 2 rooms share an en suite bathroom with shower. Both ground floor bedrooms benefit from direct access to the garden via French windows, further enhancing the connection between interior and exterior.

A stone staircase leads from the living room to the first floor, where a hallway area provides access to 3 additional bedrooms: a single bedroom with direct access to a terrace with a seating area, a double bedroom, and a twin bedroom. The first floor is served by 2 bathrooms, one fitted with a shower and the other with both a shower and a bathtub. The laundry facilities are located outside the main building, housed in a wooden structure adjacent to the main entrance.

Distances and Attractions

Buca delle Fate enjoys a privileged position in the Valdarno area of Tuscany, situated between the Pratomagno ridge and the nearby Chianti region, and positioned approximately halfway between Florence and Arezzo. The property is located just a few kilometers from the Autostrada del Sole, making it easily accessible from major Italian cities and international airports.

The surrounding landscape is one of the most evocative in the valley, distinguished by the presence of the so-called crags, dramatic rocky erosions formed following the drying up of a large ancient lake that once covered the Arno valley, and which many believe to be portrayed in the backgrounds of paintings by Leonardo da Vinci. These formations offer enchanting scenery particularly at sunset, when shadows play across the steep walls and furrows of the terrain.

The property is accessed via the Setteponti road, the ancient route linking Arezzo and Vallombrosa, along which numerous CAI hiking and mountain biking routes depart, allowing guests to explore the entire area of the crags on foot or by bike. The surrounding countryside is dotted with rural architecture and Romanesque churches, including the famous basilica of Gropina, which dominates the village of Loro Ciuffenna, classified among the most beautiful villages in Italy.
