Agriturismo Fattoria Lavacchio
Organiclifestyle: harmonize its activities with the balance placed by nature
The history of the farm dates back to 1700 when the noble Florentine family of Peruzzi built it. In 1800 he passed to the Strozzi Sacrati Marquis of Mantua, and finally, in 1978, was bought by our family, of Genoese origin but always lovers of Tuscany. Since then we have undertaken a complete restoration of the company allowing the re-launch production, while preserving the best traditions of farm suited to organic cultivation and production of wine and oil, combining old hand craft methods, the most modern techniques.
Now we hope that the new generation is passionate about what we and carry forward what was created up to d today.
In the grounds of the main house is a century-old cedar of Lebanon of more than 250 years old, he became the symbol of the Farm.
The farm is situated in the heart of Lavacchio Farm, Company of wines and organic extra virgin olive oil, on the top of Montefiesole ridge at 450 meters above sea level and just 18 km from Florence in the district of Pontassieve. The farm buildings have been restored with particular care respecting the typical Tuscan order to ensure the most memorable and comfortable stay to our guests in the rolling hills of Chianti Rufina.
Florence is about 25 minutes from the company, you can get there by car or train. The nearest train station is Sieci 10 minutes by car where there is free parking. From the station Sieci in Florence there are about 15-20 minutes train ride every 40 minutes.
Fiesole, also nearby, is located on the hill in front of the company and access is ideal to discover an exceptional panorama.
The historic city of Siena and its wonderful territory is 80km, easily reached within an hour by car. Arezzo and its ancient medieval villages are located about 60 km.
The Fattoria Lavacchio offers three holiday solutions immersed in an organic farm in the heart of Tuscany; double rooms and family suites with private bath with shower for couples and families with children or single, self-catering apartments and villas to enjoy and relax in the countryside quite far away from the busy city. The farm is divided on 4 farmhouses, renovated to offer standard, comfort and level of services, among them houses 250 meters away and easily reached on foot.

A beautiful location with excellent, friendly staff. Great breakfast. Room clean and spacious. Overall for the price in summer period it was worth it to have a special two nights in Tuscany. From an eco perspective all we noticed was the towel change advice (as in not to change daily to save water) so could help the more eco-conscious if more information was provided here during the stay.
