About this property
An 800 villa in the Tuscan countryside - a quiet place - pool - culture
You will experience the charm of living in a 19th century Villa ... a step back in time
In the lower Mugello on the border of Chianti, just 35 minutes from Florence, completely immersed in the countryside, surrounded by vineyards, olive groves and fruit trees, the small Caiano village overlooks the soft valleys of the enchanting Tuscan landscape.
The village, originally from the fourteenth century and increased until the nineteenth century, still retains the flavor of the original farm: the manor house, the farm, the farmhouse, the barn, the little chapel, the oven, the stables and the fountains.
The various buildings, independent of each other, offer different housing solutions that add to the charm of the uncontaminated landscape to the modern comforts of the interior, embellished with period furniture.
A large swimming pool is situated in a panoramic position within the large garden surrounding the village.
The Borgo Caiano is located in the center of Tuscany, and therefore in a strategic position to reach Siena Arezzo, Pisa, Poppi, Hermitage of Camaldoli and the Hermitage of Camandoli.
On the slopes of the Foreste Casentinesi National Park where you can practice trecking, walk the mountain bike tracks and take long horse rides.
At 3 kilometers from the village, the town of Londa is located where all the main services are located: supermarket, bank, pharmacy, post office, internet point and restaurants / trattorias where you can taste the genuine flavors of Tuscan cuisine

We stayed here after some lengthy traveling and it was the perfect place-beautiful and peaceful, an authentic villa with a welcoming host! We felt like family and look forward to returning. Thank you for such a great stay!!
We had 10 wonderful days at a peaceful and calm location with a very kind host, who gave interesting proposals and possibilities to explore in the area. Looking forward to come back in the future.

Se volete vivere l'esperienza di tornare nel 1800 alla fattoria di Caiano trovate l'ambiente adatto.
Bello incontrare chi può apprezzare.
It was a pleasure to stay in Guido’s beautiful Villa. The place had endless character and charm. It was very quiet. Close for day trips to Florence and Poppi, which was an incredible alternative to the touristy towns. We also had the best meals at Mandri nearby - all locals - and got to meet Guido’s charming family. The home was a step back in time and a perfect escape for a quiet week in Italy. A. A

Thank you so much, for your wonderful words!
It was a real pleasure to host you at our Caiano Villa, and we’re so happy to hear that you appreciated the authentic atmosphere, the peaceful setting, and the beauty of the surrounding area. Poppi truly is a hidden gem, and we're glad you experienced it as a quieter alternative to the more touristy spots.
My family also really enjoyed meeting you!
Very beautiful authentic home, where you feel welcome in no time. Amazing surroundings, garden and villages. Tuscany olive trees and cipressen all around you. Relaxing atmosphere with the sounds of birds and crickets. And last but not least, very kind host!
We spend 2 weeks at the Villa in the fattoria caiano and the time there surpassed our expectations.
Guido Gori has given us plenty of Information beforehand, the Place is a tuscany dream.
The Villa with the original furniture and kitchen, the fattoria with all its history , the view , the flowers, the fresh and deep pool in the olive grove, the sunset, the surrounding woods and the village of Londa, the invaluable tips for excursions and restaurants by Guido , the waterfalls, the „apperitivos“together with Friends and Neighbours - everything authentic
Guidos interest in Contemporary Art made some exzeptionell excursions possible.
The Perfect Place for reading , relaxing, good wine and conversation , nature and history unmimited included.

It is a pleasure to host when those who come find the time and calm to appreciate Caiano and the region.
It's always an enriching opportunity to get to know each other and exchange experiences.
Not the hit-and-run tourist but the traveler curious to know and available to meet.
We stayed at this very special villa for 6 nights in September. Our host, Guido, was exceptional and we really appreciated his hospitality. We traded maple syrup for olive oil and he invited us to join an evening with his friends and family and made Prosecco/maple syrup cocktails! The property is an historic villa with loads of charm and character and it felt very calming to be here. Two of our favourite meals were in nearby restaurants ( Mandri and La Bottega Di Castagneto). The vista from the property overlooks the mountains of Tuscany and is spectacular. We had a wonderful walk/hike in the nearby Park Nazionale Delle Foreste Casentinesi. Next time we would take advantage of the nearby train into Florence. The pool view is gorgeous. Our weather was cool due to the end of September and the roads are typical mountain roads. Would love to return.

Grazie per la bellissima recensione e ci dispiace rispondere solo dopo molto tempo ma ti fa piacere che consegnate un bel ricordo della vostra vacanza speriamo di ritrovarsi in futuro mai
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans cette jolie bâtisse située en pleine nature, à deux pas de Florence. L’endroit est idéal pour se ressourcer : calme, verdoyant et authentique. L’hébergement, plein de charme, allie confort et caractère. Un lieu à recommander à tous ceux qui souhaitent profiter de la beauté de la Toscane tout en se relaxant dans un cadre naturel et apaisant.

Für Liebhaber vergangener Zeiten
Man wird herzlich empfangen, was leider den Zustand der Unterkunft nicht ausgleichen kann. WiFi gibt es nur außerhalb der Wohnung, elektrische Geräte können kaum benutzt werden, da sonst die Sicherungen fliegen. Doch das schlimmste war der schimmlige Geruch überall und der Zustand des Bades. Der Garten und die Umgebung sind schön. Bei uns war durchgehend gutes Wetter, so dass wir uns nur zum Schlafen drinnen aufhalten mussten.Generell wurde wenig Komfort geboten, Plastikliegen, Metallstühle usw. Und das leider scheinbar schon seit Jahren s. Bewertung von 2016 bei Tripadviser
Une propriété de rêve entourée des plus beaux paysages de la Toscane. Notre hôte, Guido est aux petits soins pour nous guider selon nos envies.
Une clientele internationale qui sait apprécier ce havre de paix. Sienne, Pise, Florence sont à bonne distance. Nous n’avons qu'une seule envie, y revenir !
A presto Guido !
Nous serions bien resté dans cet environnement Toscan préservé. La maison et les hôtes sont extraordinaires et accueillants. Nous sommes comblés !

Nous avons passé une merveilleuse semaine dans la fattoria Caiano !
Un endroit perdu, hors du temps, dans les montagnes toscanes ! On respire la campagne (avec des biches qui passent près de vous !), on se ressource dans une belle demeure qui a gardé tout son charme du début du 19e siècle !
Guido, le propriétaire est d'une grande gentillesse, francophone, il nous a donné des bons conseils et nous avons passé grâce à lui de merveilleuses vacances en Toscane ! Merci Guido !

Grazie del bel commento - sono contento che abbiate apprezzato lo spirito e lo stile di Caiano ... non il lusso ma l'autenticità.
Es war mal was anderes als Strand. Wunderbare Gegend, wie aus einer Filmkulisse. Guido ist ein sehr netter, sympathischer und Hilfsbereiter Gastgeber.
Gerne wieder.

Wir haben in Caiano einen wunderschönen und entspannten Urlaub verbracht. Große Wohnung und herrliche Außenanlage mit Pool und weitem Blick in die toskanische Landschaft. Von Guido und seiner Mutter wurden wir warmherzig aufgenommen, wie Gäste, nicht wie Mieter. Wir werden wiederkommen.

Danke Veronika für deinen Kommentar – ich habe ihn jetzt gesehen und hoffe wirklich, dich in Zukunft wiederzusehen.
Gutes Leben!
Sehr netter Gastgeber, der sich bemüht alle Wünsche zu erfüllen und gute Tipps parat hat. Wohnung in sehr schön erhaltenem, alten Stil, und trotzdem mit modernen Geräten (Geschirrspüler, Waschmaschine, riesiger Kühlschrank etc.) ausgestattet. Sehr schöner Garten. Gut gefallen hat uns auch, dass das Anwesen durch die Familie des Gastgebers und die anderen Feriengäste sehr lebendig gewirkt hat, man aber trotzdem seine Privatsphäre hatte, weil sich alles auf mehrere Gebäude aufteilt.
Natürlich gibt es auch ein paar Dinge, die man verbessern könnte, wie z.B. die etwas unbequemen Betten, die sehr sonnigen Parkplätze und andere Kleinigkeiten - aber wenn man den günstigen Preis berücksichtigt, sollte man auch nicht den absoluten Luxus erwarten.

Très belle propriété, maison ancienne pleine de charme.
L’accueil de Guido et de toute sa famille était très chaleureux. Le fait que beaucoup de personnes parlent français nous a été d'une grande aide. Nous aurions juste aimé savoir, avant notre arrivée, qu'il y aurait d'autres locataires dans la propriété en dehors des propriétaires. Il manquait aussi certains ustensiles de cuisine (dont bols ou mugs, plat à four adaptés au four...). Mais nous avons passé un bon séjour tout de même.

Het is een oud huis, met een paar ongemakken, maar dit stoorde ons niet echt. Je past je snel aan
De woning is ouder, maar zeer fris wat heel aangenaam is! Het uitzicht is schitterend. Een hele mooie omgeving. Het domein zelf is heel goed verzorgd. Je vindt hier echt rust. Het zwembad is wel heel diep, dus voor jonge kinderen die nog niet goed kunnen zwemmen iets minder geschikt. Wij zijn 2 weken in Ronda geweest en het was een zeer relaxe en aangename vakantie. Als je een vakantie zoekt met veel rust en af en toe wat uitstapjes is dit de geschikte plaats!

A beautiful place, garden and very nice people
The house brongs you back to the historic times of the fattoria with it's garden overlooking the valley and the old family house at it's centre. We came here for rest, the beautiful scenery and walking in the hills around. Guido and his family were very nice and we can say that we made friends there. We stayed for a long time, but as we were preparing to leave we realized that time flew by and we would come back, hopefully soon.

It is rare to find guests like Koen, Anne and Vivianne!
They have been able to enjoy the charm of Caiano for a long time, accepting the defects of an "old" house and the lonely days of the off-season countryside.
Koen is a more than fine cook and an enthusiastic and curious traveler, Anne a person with a beautiful soul that inspires calm. The real jewel is Vivienne - beautiful and cute little creature always with its beautiful colored necklace!
I hope to meet soon again.

Nous avons séjourné à la Fattoria di Caiano en août 2016. Nous avons été très bien accueilli par Guido et toute sa famille. L'appartement au rez-de-chaussée est vaste et confortable. Les témoignages de l'histoire de la famille de Guido contribuent au charme de la maison.
A l'extérieur, le paysage est superbe et la piscine est très appréciable en plein été !
Merci Guido pour votre accueil chaleureux, nous avons passé de très bons moments !

Découverte de la Toscane authentique avec une vue magnifique
Les propriétaires sont très accueillants, sympathiques et de bon conseil. La piscine, profonde et bien située, est très agréable. Les intérieurs ont gardé le charme de l'ancien mais le confort est assez sommaire. Compter 1 heure pour être à Florence.
