Guardia di Badia a Passignano, Tavarnelle Val di Pesa - Florence and Chianti

2 bedrooms 2 bathrooms 4 guests Private Pool 4,5 - Excellent - Excellent 4,5

Guardia di Badia a Passignano is a lovingly restored villa which is ideal  for couples or small families. Once a guard’s post, it now offers a peaceful and stylish retreat in the heart of Chianti, surrounded by the renowned vineyards of Antinori, one of Italy’s most respected wine producers. Just a short walk away lies the impressive Badia a Passignano, a thousand-year-old abbey with a Last Supper fresco by Domenico Ghirlandaio.

The abbey is only five minutes on foot from the house. Guests can also enjoy excellent nearby restaurants such as Di Vino, offering views over the vineyards and authentic Tuscan cuisine, or the gourmet Osteria di Passignano. A small but well-stocked grocery store is located in Sambuca, while all further amenities, including a COOP supermarket, can be found in Tavarnelle Val di Pesa, around fifteen minutes away by car. Florence, Siena and San Gimignano are all within an hour’s drive and perfect for day trips.

The holiday home is set among olive groves and vineyards and built from local stone. Original features such as guard peep holes have been preserved. Two lateral terraces with covered dining and seating areas invite guests to relax outdoors throughout the season. Next to the heatable pool is a charming and unique grill area for alfresco cooking and dining.

Inside, exposed stone walls, white-painted wooden beams and large windows create a bright and airy atmosphere. The modern minimalist interior offers both comfort and calm for an authentic Tuscan experience.

Wirklich hübsches Ferienhaus und schöner Garten. Atmosphärisch, idyllische Lage. Die Sauberkeit insbesondere der Bäder (Toiletten/Duschen) war bei Ankunft allerdings mangelhaft. Die vorherige Reinigung was wenig gründlich, auch im Wohnbereich und in der Küche. Über was ich m.E. nicht informiert wurde, war, dass die Stromkosten (vor allem für die Beheizung des Pools) separat abgerechnet werden. So kamen EUR 240 für sechs Tage hinzu! Viele Grüße, Daniel Westhoff
Local attractions Abtei Badia einschl. Garten/Park! Restaurant Scuderia in Badia! Auch nett: Di Vino in Badia.

Vielen Dank, dass Sie Ihre Erfahrungen mit uns geteilt haben. Es freut uns, dass Ihnen das Ferienhaus und der Garten so gut gefallen haben. Gleichzeitig bedauern wir sehr, dass die Sauberkeit bei Ankunft nicht Ihren Erwartungen entsprochen hat. Ihr Hinweis wurde direkt an das Team vor Ort weitergegeben, das uns bestätigt hat, während Ihres Aufenthalts zusätzliche Reinigungen angeboten und durchgeführt zu haben. Bezüglich der Stromkosten, insbesondere für die Poolbeheizung, nehmen wir Ihren Hinweis ernst und werden unsere Kommunikation hierzu noch einmal überprüfen. Auch wenn die Zusatzkosten auf der Website und Buchungsbestätigung aufgeführt sind, ist es uns sehr wichtig, diese transparent darzustellen. Wir danken Ihnen für das Feedback und hoffen, Sie dennoch bald wieder einmal in der Toskana begrüßen zu dürfen!
