In 1990 I went to Florence for my studies, and since then, after traveling back and forth between the Netherlands and Tuscany, it has definitely become Tuscany. With my Italian husband 2 sons we live in the hills of Vinci on a small olive farm, which we have completely renovated. We hope to let you enjoy the positive aspects of local Italian life in this very special place during your stay. My husband is a fan of old-time motorcycles.

Nice apartment in a good location. Central to visit places like Pisa, Lucca, Florence, Siena, San Gimignano and Vinci. Train station is in Empoli, approx. 20 minutes by car. Contact with the landlord is fine.
