Montefiesole • Pontassieve • 19 km from Florence
Explore Florence by day without ZTL or parking stress, and return in the evening to quiet woods, starry skies and the olive groves of Chianti Rufina. “Rediscover the beauty of gazing at the stars.”
Staying at Agriturismo Tassinaia, in the historic hilltop hamlet of Montefiesole (500 m above sea level), gives you the rare privilege of experiencing authentic rural Tuscany while keeping central Florence within effortless reach.
Leave your car in our free monitored parking or drive just 10 minutes along a fully paved road (with the final stretch newly repaved in 2026!) to Pontassieve station: from there, a 20-minute direct train takes you straight to Florence Santa Maria Novella, steps from the Duomo and the Uffizi—no traffic, no ZTL fines and no expensive city garages.
In the evening you return to the warmth of a family home: quiet woods where roe deer cross the trails at dusk, a panoramic garden among centuries-old olive trees and the personal care of Gherardo and his mother Renza.
Six characterful rooms featuring wooden beams, Tuscan terracotta and woodland views: every room includes a private bathroom, buffet breakfast, fast Wi-Fi, independent heating, a ceiling fan and mosquito screens.
Exposed wood and antique terracotta ceiling, terracotta flooring and a modern private bathroom with all comforts, overlooking the private road and woods.
Romantic and spacious, featuring a four-poster canopy bed, high wooden-beamed ceiling, terracotta finishes and dual entrance opening onto the patio.
Created by combining the adjoining Violet and Madame rooms: the ideal choice for families or couples seeking two generous, independent spaces.
Formerly part of the historic farm stable, preserving its original brick-lattice window and ceramic flooring.
Stoneware flooring and a modern wood-panelled ceiling, offering warm country comfort with a contemporary touch.
Spacious and bright, blending modern lines with rustic Tuscan details, complete with a private anteroom and bathroom.
Three experiences in a single stay: Florence’s Renaissance art, private hillside relaxation and authentic Tuscan flavours.
Wake up to birdsong and the aroma of fresh coffee: a rich sweet and savoury buffet breakfast is always included, with options for food intolerances available on request.
After a day among museums and monuments, unwind for 2 hours in our natural spring-water hot tub heated year-round, reserved exclusively for you with welcome aperitif and wellness kit.
Taste our Montefiesole Extra Virgin Olive Oil (cold mechanical extraction below 27 °C) paired with local gastronomic specialties right at the property, plus our private guest guide to partner wineries.
A truly unforgettable experience just outside Florence: walk for 2 hours along our private forest and olive-grove trails together with Moses and Arya, our two Czechoslovakian Wolfdogs (male and female).
An easy walk suitable for everyone, combining the ancient history of Montefiesole with live observation of ancestral wolf behaviours and breed curiosities. Available by advance reservation.
