Florence Villa II Poggiale Hotel

Villa II Poggiale Hotel addressVia Empolese 69 San Casciano Val di Pesa, 50026 Florence
The Renaissance *Villa Il Poggiale*, classified as a historic home, has been entirely restored by its owners in order to offer the hospitality and the atmosphere of a family home. The external structure of the Villa dates from the 16th century with its lovely Renaissance loggia and the elegant surrounds of the windows and doors in *pietra serena*. The interior decorating, instead, dates from the 1800s with beautiful frescoes in the halls and decorated doors. The large hall, the heart of the house, with its beautifully decorated doors, is full of comfortable armchairs and welcoming settees. Various other smaller lounges offer space and tranquility for relaxing or reading. Oriental silks have been used in the salons and the rooms on the main floor and great care has been taken in the decorating of the bathrooms where specially made tiles in pale tones have been used. Breakfast is served in the dining room on the ground floor with the fire lit on winter days. Seated in the Renaissance loggia, you can have a wonderful view of the classic garden which envelops you with the perfume of old roses and of other flowering plants. The beautiful central courtyard with its well and the gardens surrounding the swimming pool have always been planted with flowers which give off glorious perfumes according to the season.

Attractions
Area Attractions - The center of Florence is easily reached from Villa Il Poggiale in about 20 minutes.    For Art lovers  It is possible to reach the most beautiful cities of art in Tuscany* Siena, Arezzo, Pisa, Lucca, San Gimignano, Certaldo, Volterra, Pienza, Montepulciano and many others in less than an hour.    For lovers of the countryside  Trips to the various towns in the Chianti Classico area* Greve, Gaiole, Radda, Castellina, Panzano, and many other enchanting villages and towns in the surrounding areas. To reach these places we would suggest taking the less well-known roads in order to delight in the wonderful landscapes far from the Madding Crowd.    For Food and Wine Lovers  We will suggest a selection of *trattorie*, and restaurants of all types in the range of about 20 minutes as well as vineyards and cellars where it is possible to buy wines and oil and other local produce    For golf enthusiasts  The Ugolino Golf Course, one of the best in Italy, is not more than 25 minutes from Villa Il Poggiale.    The Palio of Siena  The Palio of Siena has no need of an introduction. The procession in the *contrade*, the quarters, of the city and the race in the splendid Piazza del Campo, are a breathtaking spectacle. The atmosphere during the days of the famous race is unique. The suppers and the festivity in the streets of the city, the benediction of the horses in the churches of the various quarters, the music, and the costumes, remain an unforgettable memory. Il Poggiale is only 40 minutes from Siena and tickets for the Palio and for the supper in the *contrade* are available through the Villa.
Attractions
Outdoor swimming pool open from June through September. The Olive Harvest Wine and oil are the two treasures of Tuscany.

Cookery Lessons From the old country cooking to the more refined cuisine, the complete range of Tuscan gastronomy and also that of other Italian regions is available. From Piemonte with its French influence to the rich and imaginative cooking of Naples and from Sicily where the Arabs and Spanish left their mark. Hotel will be happy to prepare a personalized cooking course with you. The Truffles of San Miniato Villa Il Poggiale is situated about 30 minutes drive from San Miniato. The area surrounding this charming medieval town is famous for its plentiful truffles. It is possible to take part in searching for truffles, following the dogs which are specially trained for just this task by their owners who gather the priceless tubers and who are a source of inexhaustible information. In the squares and streets of the town, during the last weekend of November, there is a very lively festival held for their tasting with dozens of stalls selling truffles of every type and size. Wine Tasting in the Heart of Chianti You can visit the Castello di Rampolla, where some of the highest quality wines in Tuscany are produced including the *Vigna d Alceo* which was selected two years ago by the *Wine Spectator* *the world*s most prestigious wine magazine* as Best Wine of the Year. The castle is situated in a splendid position with its terraces looking out over the valley and the vine-covered hills which change color with the seasons. You can visit the cellars and taste the different wines and the owner, princess Maurizia di Napoli Rampolla, will be your highly informed guide.
