Overlooking the rolling hills of Tuscany is Casa Papa, a quintessentially Italian villa that is ideally located for exploring this world-famous region. The medieval walled town of San Gimignano is only a 30-minute drive from the villa, while a train ride can take you to Florence, Siena and Pisa within an hour. Casa Papa is designed to make the most of the views of the iconic landscape surrounding the villa, as relaxed interiors flow into the well-kept gardens to encourage al-fresco dining. On the upper level, an open plan living area leads directly into a covered veranda equipped with an outdoor kitchen, barbecue, and pizza oven. On the ground floor are two bedrooms and a bathroom, making the property well suited to families or two couples travelling together. Casa Papa is close to the pretty town of Castelfiorentino, where you will find a few quaint bars, restaurants and everything needed for day-to-day living. Visitors in the last week of May will see the town filled with performers and markets for the annual In/Canti & Banchi Festival.
