The enchanting village of Castelfalfi is steeped in centuries-old history, beginning with Lombard Faolfi who laid the castle’s foundations in the 700s. In the early 2000s, restoration and renovation of the hamlet and its surrounding 1000 hectares of land was undertaken and today, golf enthusiasts flock to the 27-hole Castelfalfi Golf Club, which offers a superb sporting challenge in a beautiful Tuscan setting.
Villa del Cacciatore was the former hunting mansion of the Dukes of Castelfalfi. Built in 1890, this villa was known in the area as the leading spot of the Tuscan aristocrat society. An authentic jewel of Tuscan architecture and historical tradition, the property was thoroughly renovated in 2018 resulting in a fabulous luxury villa rental in a tranquil location with panoramic views. Surrounded by woods and farm fields, the estate is the ideal accommodation for those looking for a villa holiday in Tuscany close to important places of interest, including Volterra, San Gimignano, Pisa, Lucca and Florence.
The interior of the villa boasts quintessential Tuscan details such as terra cotta floors, stone walls, and chestnut wood beam ceilings, while also providing all modern amenities, including air-conditioning in all five bedrooms, WiFi connectivity, and a fully equipped kitchen. Outside, the beautifully maintained garden offers privacy and tranquility. Situated in the enclosed gardens and just a short walk from the villa is a beautiful swimming pool, perfect for keeping cool on hot summer days.
