Agriturismo Fattoria Lavacchio

Everything at Agriturismo Fattoria Lavacchio was simply amazing. Every member of the staff gave us an absolutely unforgettable vacation/honeymoon. The owner Faye and her husband Dimitri were so kind and really made us feel at home. Their primary employees Martina, Francesca and Simone were top class. Not to mention Tatsu, their amazing wine somelier, who gave us a tour to remember. Everything was 10 out of 10 - the local bioorganic food and wine, the facilities, the views… Eveything was perfect! The location is secluded and beautiful, but still close to Florence and other lovely cities. We are gonna recommend this to everyone we know. THANK YOU!

A hidden gem to escape the heat of Florence, <30 min outside the city! The property is gorgeous. The included breakfast was absolutely delicious - all fresh, local ingredients. The pool is big and cold and the loungers and umbrellas are very nice. The top floor, two-room apartment was spacious and clean, the AC units worked really well, and the room had everything we needed; I loved the tall ceilings and vineyard views. The bathroom was small but adequate - to be expected at this type of property. Highly recommend staying at an agriturismo during your trip to Tuscany!

Due to the hospitality of everyone at Fattoria Lavacchio, our stay was nothing short of wonderful! Everyone working there was incredibly helpful and kind. Even before we arrived, they arranged transportation to and from the Pontassieve train station, and on the day we arrived it was raining so Bennedetta drove us to our building and later did research on whether a train strike was going to affect our trip. Honestly, every person we encountered such as Valentina at breakfast, was friendly and ready to help with a smile. The property itself is stunning, surrounded by rolling vineyards and olive trees that add to the peaceful, scenic atmosphere. We loved the organic approach they take—fruits, vegetables, wine and olive oil from their land were served in their dining room - making every meal feel authentic and fresh. There is also a sandwich shop on the property that makes the most delicious “build your own” sandwiches and the woman working that day gave us honest, good advice on how to build a delicious sandwich. The activities were a highlight of our stay; the wine tasting with Tatsu and cooking class with Enrico and Franchesca were both fantastic, informative and entertaining! We learned so much about the property’s wine and pasta making. We only wished we could have participated in the olive oil testing and truffle hunting (which were not available during our stay but we heard they are also fabulous). Since we were there in late October, the pool was closed for the season. We stayed in a deluxe suite (apartment) in a separate building; though rustic, it was clean and had good views. If you’re looking for a unique, memorable experience in Tuscany, we highly recommend Fattoria Lavacchio!

The place is amazing, nice pool, great wine. We loved the breakfast, everything was organic, from their farm. They organized a visit to the winery and wine tasting, which is a must! Highly recommend! We also went horse riding. The room was spacious, the AC was working well. We were in the Junior Suite. There is also a wine shop at the property, where you can buy some local cheese and ham, and even organize a picnic. It was very calm, great place to rest. Also parking is free everywhere. We will be back!

The surroundings were stunning. Peaceful and so beautiful to see. Our apartment was quite even though we had a young family next door, we could not hear them or anyone else. The staff were lovely and always happy to help you. Christian in particular was very lovely, friendly & super attentive!!
