Villa Ancora is an old home that has been skillfully renovated to offer our guests the utmost in comfort.

Located on the slopes of Monte Morello (near Florence), this vacation house can accommodate up to 6 people thanks to its 2 bedrooms and bright, spacious interiors. One of Villa Ancora’s most evocative features is the fireplace, where you can warm up with friends and family on cold days. The sweeping views of the valley of Florence and the surrounding nature make it easy to forget you are just kilometers from the city.

In the enclosed garden, at guests’ disposal there is an above ground pool for enjoying lovely days in the sun, taking in the quiet and tranquility of the countryside, as well as a nice barbecue area with table and chairs for grilling and eating al fresco.

Villa Ancora’s strategic location is perfect for a relaxing vacation, walking and exploring Monte Morello Natural Park. It is also close to art attractions in Florence (just 10 km away), Arezzo, and Siena, and all of Tuscany’s most characteristic spots. You can taste excellent wines in the Chianti and Val d’Orcia, and savor the specialties of Tuscan cuisine.

A dream come true…
Words don’t even come close to express how magical this villa is. Truly a hidden gem. The outside seating areas are remarkable. The gardens are lovely. The pool is great for an afternoon of relaxation. The pictures do not do it justice. Upon arrival we were blown away with the space, the items available for use in the house and the attention to detail regarding design and comfort. By far the best we’ve stayed. Worth every penny. And we’ve traveled all over the world. We cannot wait to find a reason to come back. Take time to explore all of the local gems. People are so kind and accommodating. Thank you for a magical holiday.

A little piece of heaven
This property is a wonderful hidden gem. The decor and layout is quite romantic and charming. The bed was super comfortable, and the soaking bathtub is absolutely amazing! I used it every night of our stay! We watched beautiful sunsets, and swam in the pool in the middle of October. It was quite cold, but we had to at least try it out! We hope to stay again soon!
