An elegant villa for 4 on an ancient farming estate south of Florence, Balconata overlooks the hamlet's communal square, while the enormous 20x20 metre pool is a very short walk away.

The estate also has a library, a conference room/theatre, a private restaurant and a wine and oil tasting room, making the villas here perfect for workcations, conferences, as well as weddings and family gatherings.

Tranquil and beautiful retreat but a bit remote

A lovely spot on a tuscan hillside with beautiful views across the valley, surrounded by olive groves. Perfect retreat for writing your novel, or unwinding in tranquility. A car is essential, as local sleepy village Pian di Sco is a good walk, and that is where you will find the nearest local shops and restaurants. Better shops and more restaurants were 20 minutes away at Figline Valdarno, from where you can also take the train to Florence or Arezzo, saving angst about parking in unfamiliar cities. Major tourist centres were generally an hour's drive away, so this location is probably not a good one if sightseeing in historic town centres is your priority. However, if you are looking for a high quality tranquil place, this is beautiful.

We have enjoyed the most wonderful stay at Balconata. Everything was perfect. Luxury villa, peaceful surroundings, huge pool! From the warmest of welcomes to the beautifully stocked honesty bar, this is a place that provides a quality holiday and a feeling of exclusivity. Thank you Fattoria Casamora and Invitation to Tuscany.

A truly lovely place. Beautifully decorated quite modern interior in a fabulous traditional building. The complex is all stone buildings and lovely plantings. The pool is huge and beautiful with lovely sitting areas and a self service bar!! Good restaurants a short drive away.. also pleasant opportunity to eat in house. We loved the place. you can walk to the village if you find the lovely old path tru the valley with an ancient bridge
