This 17th-century villa lies in the rolling vistas of Tuscany, boasting a private pool and billiards. Many of the furnishings are antiques and the traditional look won't be for everyone, but the views of the surrounding vineyards are wonderful. We think families will be very comfortable here – the grounds have space for kids to play, and your host can provide a cot and high chair for free if you're travelling with little ones. If you don't drive, you'll find a train station within walking distance for days out in Florence, but we think it's worth hiring a car for ease of exploring. *There is space to park for free outside this home. Due to its location, we recommend hiring a car to get the most out of your stay. *Your host can provide a cot and high chair for free here if you're travelling with little ones. *There's a shooting range nearby, and it's possible you might hear some noise from this during your stay. *Not all the bathrooms...
This Tuscan Villa caught our eye for its lush garden, surrounded by trees – you’ll certainly feel like you’ve escaped to the country when you’re lounging by the pool here. Located in the Mugello Valley, you’re a short drive from Borgo San Lorenzo, where you’ll find shops and restaurants, and 36 kilometres from the ever-popular Florence.

The pool isn't fenced so children will need to be supervised at all times. *If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot and high chair for free.

The sprawling grounds of this Tuscan villa are home to woodland walks where you can spot birds, a big private pool for cooling dips and lots of different places to dine and unwind out in nature.

Accommodation costs in Florence can vary depending on factors such as location, type of accommodation, and amenities. Generally, Florence is considered to be one of the more expensive cities in Italy in terms of housing, especially in the city center and popular neighborhoods.
In the historic center of Florence, where many of the famous landmarks and attractions are located, rental prices for apartments can be relatively high due to the high demand from tourists and students. Similarly, neighborhoods close to the city center, such as Santa Croce, Santo Spirito, and San Marco, tend to have higher rents.
Average price for a 1 bedroom apartment in Florence is around 800 Euros per month.
Florence offers a variety of neighborhoods, each with its own unique charm, atmosphere, and amenities. The `best` neighborhood to live in Florence can depend on your preferences, lifestyle, and priorities. Here are some popular neighborhoods to consider:
Santa Croce: Located in the historic center, Santa Croce is known for its lively atmosphere, historic buildings, and narrow streets. It's home to the Basilica di Santa Croce and the lively Sant'Ambrogio Market, offering plenty of cafes, restaurants, and shops.
Santo Spirito: Across the Arno River from the city center, Santo Spirito is known for its bohemian vibe, artisan workshops, and vibrant nightlife. The Piazza Santo Spirito is a popular gathering spot with outdoor cafes and a weekly market.
San Niccolò: Situated on the south side of the Arno River, San Niccolò offers panoramic views of the city and a quieter residential atmosphere. It's known for its picturesque streets, local shops, and cafes, and it's within walking distance of the city center.
San Frediano: Adjacent to Santo Spirito, San Frediano is another lively and eclectic neighborhood with a mix of historic buildings, artisan workshops, and trendy bars and restaurants. The Piazza del Carmine is a focal point with its Renaissance church and outdoor seating.
Oltrarno: Oltrarno, meaning "beyond the Arno," encompasses several of the neighborhoods mentioned above and is known for its authentic character and local vibe. It's less touristy than the city center but still offers plenty of cultural attractions and amenities.
Campo di Marte: Located east of the historic center, Campo di Marte is a residential neighborhood popular among families and professionals. It offers green spaces, sports facilities, and good transportation connections, including the Campo di Marte train station.
Piazza Beccaria: Situated northeast of the historic center, Piazza Beccaria is a bustling area with shops, restaurants, and cafes. It's well-connected by public transportation and offers a mix of residential and commercial spaces.
These are just a few examples, and there are many other neighborhoods in Florence, each with its own unique character and attractions. When choosing where to live, consider factors such as proximity to work or school, public transportation options, amenities, and your personal preferences for urban or residential living.
In Florence, finding affordable accommodation can be challenging, especially in the city center and popular tourist neighborhoods. However, there are some areas where rental prices may be more affordable:
Novoli: Located northwest of the city center, Novoli is a residential area known for its modern apartment complexes and proximity to the University of Florence's main campus. Rental prices here may be relatively lower compared to the city center, and it's well-connected by public transportation.
Rifredi: Situated north of the city center, Rifredi is a residential neighborhood with a mix of apartment buildings and single-family homes. It offers a quieter atmosphere compared to the historic center and may have more affordable rental options.
Isolotto: West of the city center, Isolotto is a predominantly residential area with parks, schools, and local amenities. Rental prices here may be more budget-friendly compared to central neighborhoods, and it's well-connected by public transportation.
Gavinana-Galluzzo: Located south of the Arno River, Gavinana-Galluzzo is a residential area with a mix of housing options and green spaces. It offers a suburban feel with easy access to the city center via public transportation, and rental prices may be more affordable compared to central neighborhoods.
Le Cure: Northeast of the city center, Le Cure is a residential neighborhood with a mix of apartments and small shops. It offers a local atmosphere and may have more affordable rental options compared to touristy areas.
Coverciano: Situated east of the city center, Coverciano is a residential area known for its sports facilities and parks. Rental prices here may be relatively lower compared to central neighborhoods, and it offers a quieter lifestyle.
While these areas may offer more affordable rental options compared to the city center, it's essential to consider factors such as transportation, amenities, and your personal preferences when choosing where to live in Florence. Additionally, rental prices can vary widely within each neighborhood based on factors such as the size, condition, and amenities of the apartment.
Yes, foreigners can generally rent longer stay accommodations in Florence, whether they are staying for work, study, retirement, or other purposes. However, there may be certain requirements and procedures to follow, similar to renting in other parts of Italy.
Here are some key points to consider:
Documentation: Landlords or rental agencies may require certain documents from tenants, such as a valid passport or identification, proof of income or financial stability, and possibly a rental contract or lease agreement.
Visa or Residence Permit: If you're a non-EU citizen, you may need to provide proof of your visa or residence permit status to rent accommodation for a longer stay. Some landlords may request this documentation to ensure that you have legal permission to stay in the country.
Deposit and Rental Fees: Like in many places, landlords in Florence often require a security deposit, typically equal to one or two months' rent, as well as the payment of the first month's rent upfront. Make sure to clarify these details with the landlord or rental agency.
Rental Contract: You'll likely need to sign a rental contract or lease agreement, which outlines the terms and conditions of the rental arrangement. Be sure to review this document carefully before signing and ask any questions you may have.
Language: While English is commonly spoken in Florence, especially in tourist areas and among younger generations, knowledge of Italian may be beneficial when dealing with landlords or rental agencies, as some documentation and communication may be in Italian.
Local Customs and Regulations: Familiarize yourself with local rental laws, customs, and regulations in Florence to ensure a smooth renting process and to understand your rights and responsibilities as a tenant.
Overall, while there may be some administrative procedures and language considerations, foreigners can generally find longer stay rentals in Florence with proper planning and documentation. It's advisable to start your search early and to familiarize yourself with the local rental market and legal requirements.

These residences typically offer furnished rooms or apartments with shared facilities like kitchens, common areas, laundry rooms, and sometimes additional amenities such as gyms or study rooms. Examples include Student Hotel Florence and Collegio di Milano Firenze.
Shared Housing and Apartments: Many students opt to rent rooms or apartments in shared housing arrangements with other students or young professionals. This option allows for flexibility and may offer a more independent living experience.
