Beautiful villa in the mountains of Tuscany
La Rupina is a private detached house with its own garden and pool. It has a fully equipped kitchen and it is beautifully decorated and comfortably furnished. The house has spectacular mountain views across the Serchio valley.
The plunge pool (4m x 2m x 1m) is surrounded by wooden decking, with chairs and a small table, and there is an outdoor grill nearby for al fresco cooking.
The covered terrace comes with a dining table, comfortable seating, and a hammock for those moments when you want to just chill and relax and enjoy the view of the mountains. In front of the terrace there is a herb and vegetable garden, and you are welcome to use anything growing there.
La Rupina is a perfect place for family and friends to enjoy the pleasures of rural Tuscany while being close to some of the best-known tourist destinations in the world.
We live in our own separate house 75m away, which means we are on call for help or information while being far enough away for you to have your privacy. There are no shared facilities between the two houses.
The house has been cleverly designed to make it highly accessible to anyone with a mobility issue. Please take a look at the Accessibility section for more information. If you have any particular requirements that require specialized equipment, please get in touch and we’ll see if we can source it for you.
The main bedroom, which is off the living area on the upper floor, has a large comfortable double bed that can be split into two singles. It also has a sen-suite bathroom with both hand-held and overhead showers.
Downstairs on the lower floor there are two more double bedrooms, both with beds that can be split into singles, plus a spacious shower room. There is direct access from the lower floor out to the garden and pool.
The windows in all the bedrooms are fitted with mosquito nets. Internal catches hold the windows open, and they are fitted with blackout curtains that can be drawn over the windows even when they’re open, allowing a cool night’s sleep without the need for air conditioning.
If you like your swimming on the wild side, follow the footpath down through the woods to our own private trout stream. Here you will find several deep cooling pools to relax in.
The forest around La Rupina offers some good trails for nearby walks. The area is peaceful and safe, and the trees are beautiful.
