    Overview

    On the hills near Pisa

    This house crowns a leafy hill near Montopoli Val d´Arno, where the landscape gently slopes down into the valley of the Arno. Guests will enjoy beautiful views of the surrounding countryside with fields and woodland. The setting is peaceful and private.

    A narrow, gravel road (200 m) leads over the hills to the property. Casa Majnoni stands on its own in a 2300 m2 garden surrounded by lawns. The lawn has several shady trees, garden furniture for sitting or lying outside and a pool. 

    The simple exterior of the house hides pleasantly furnished rooms, a typical Italian understatement. Many typical details have been maintained when the farmhouse was renovated: a wide archway and smaller, pointed arch in the large hall on the ground floor, a rustic fireplace in the spacious kitchen, antique beams and terracotta floors with charming unevenness in some rooms. The warm colors of wood and terracotta blend well with the fresh paint on the walls. The kitchen is fully equipped and just as attractive as the other rooms. In the bathrooms great care has been taken in the choice of furniture and antique-style fittings. The three bedrooms on the upper floor (one with fireplace) offer beautiful views of the surrounding countryside. 

     

    You can do your shopping in Marti (1 km), where there is also a cappuccino bar, a grocery store and a pizzeria. 

    In Monopoli Val d'Arno (3 km) there is a supermarket and a train station with links to Florence, Pisa and Livorno. More frequently trains stop at the Pontedera railway station (7 km).

    The slip road to the expressway is only 5 km away, and this freeway (superstrada) takes you quickly to the famous cities full of art or the Tyrrhenian coast with its sandy beaches.

    The long sandy beaches near Pisa are around 45 km away. These beaches are quite popular, if you prefer a more exclusive setting, we recommend the chic Versilia region that leads from Viareggio to Massa Carrara (about 80 to 90 km north).

    Our Guests Reviews

    Hi there - we availed of your wonderful service in 2007 when we rented Casa Majnoni for two weeks, we had a fabulous holiday - for this year I was wondering if you had any availability of a coastal property for the week 3-10 August?
    Bateson, June 2013

    Ciao Bettina!

    I just wanted to let you know that we had a wonderful week at Casa Majnoni - i have been to Tuscany many times, but i think this was the most beautiful, traditional house and location i have stayed in. I don't think the pictures on the website do it justice - the views were gorgeous, much nicer than i expected. We enjoyed every minute at the house and exploring some new places - Marti, Montopoli, Pontedera and, loveliest of all, San Miniato where we had supper a couple of times. My son had great fun navigating all the hairpin bends! 
    It was all so relaxing, especially nice to return to after a day in Florence and a morning in Lucca. But our happiest time was probably in the gorgeous garden, by the pool or sitting outside late at night. It was perfect. 
    If i may register one small complaint it's that it would be good to have some more umbrellas by the pool - there is currently only one which is heavy to move, not enough in such strong sunshine for 6 people - and perhaps some slightly lighter sunloungers. 
    Casa Majnoni is a special place! I would love to return some time. Thank you for your help in organising the holiday - you have a delightful list of properties. I hope you have a happy holiday too. 
    All the best, 
    Sara

    Truly beautiful Tuscan Villa
    Stayed Apr 2016
    Simon B.
    A fabulously located pretty Tuscan Villa with owners that are very close and always helpful. Well equipped and well kept property that lends itself to a quiet, relaxing holiday overlooking lush Tuscan countryside. We very much enjoyed the true Tuscan feel to the whole property and the helpfullness of the owners who went out of their way to make the stay a joy.

    Beautiful, tranquil villa in great location

    Lovely, very private, clean and comfortable villa with 3 large double bedrooms, a peaceful garden & pool and stunning views. Fabulous location for exploring much of Tuscany by car and also by train from Pontedera (10 minutes drive away). Laura came to give the children pasta making lessons, which was wonderful and the pool was regularly cleaned. Great vineyard nearby, for tasting wines and Tuscan food. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay - many thanks Genka. 

    Beautiful Tuscan villa
    Stayed Sep 2014
    Aaron F.
    This is a lovely villa with beautiful grounds - it's great having the grassy airy above the pool. It is well equipped and spacious. It's a short walk to Marti (it's a shame there is only a small local bar there and no restaurant and the bar isn't open every day). Close to the Fi-Pi-Li so easy to get around by car and close to train stations for trips to Florence etc. Watch out if arriving on a Sunday to try and buy supplies in advance.

    A wonderful hill top escape
    Stayed Aug 2013
    Damon L.
    The villa is an exceptional property in a commanding position with views across the Tuscan countryside. I went there for 2 weeks in summer 2013 with my wife and 3 children, and we had a wonderful time. On the outskirts of Marti, the villa is within easy driving range of all the wonderful Tuscan cities - Siena, Pisa, Florence, plus a host of smaller charming towns. There are also extensive restaurants in the local vicinity. What sets the villa apart is the care that its owner, Genka, takes of families renting the villa. The villa is well catered for, and is very clean and comfortable. However, it is the extra touches that Genka provides, such as regular and unobtrusive pool cleaning and house maintenance, plus really useful recommendations of days out, supermarkets, restaurants, and even the best routes when sat nav struggles with the local roads! I recommend this villa heartily for those who love summer heat, peace, barbecues, swimming (the swimming pool is ingenious, as it includes a ledge where babies and toddlers can safely potter), food, wine and relaxing.
