Stylish Villa (6 or 8 bedrooms) with Private Pool, 40 minutes from Florence

Villa Morelli Gualtierotti is an eclectic building from the early 20th Century, recently renovated with great attention to detail and fidelity to the spirit of the time. It was built for an important politician in a particularly peaceful location, surrounded by a wide park with secular beech and oak trees.
The Art Nouveau facade, a real architectural jewel designed by the same architect of Rome’s "Palazzaccio" (the Supreme Court building), represents a real surprise among the woods of the Pistoia Apennines.
Behind the "Palazzo" there is a terrace which in 2021 was transformed into a veranda to house the wellness area equipped with a wonderful Jacuzzi, a sauna, armchairs and a ping-pong table.
Inside the building, you will certainly appreciate the bright living area on the ground floor, equipped with a large decorated window. The kitchen is modern and spacious and opens onto an outside dining area.
On the upper floors there are 6 double or twin bedrooms, each with its own bathroom. All rooms are furnished with a surprising assortment of original period pieces and contemporary design elements.
Near the pool, equipped with a cover for the night and a heat pump, there are Carrara marble sculptures and, in a panoramic position, a second dining area with barbecue.
In addition to the 6-bedroom villa, there is also an optional cozy apartment located next to the swimming pool. It consists of two double bedrooms, a bathroom and a small living room with kitchen.
NB: The annex is included in the rental rate for groups of at least 13 people. Instead, for groups of up to 12 people the annex is available with a supplement (to be paid on arrival) of 100 euros per day.

Fun filled stay by 9 adults
Great stay by nine adults. Bedrooms and bathrooms are large and well appointed. Living area is also large with many chairs and sofas. Dining table is oval and can seat a large number of people. Kitchen functional and large enough. Grounds are impressive- pool is beautiful albeit not heated. Plenty of outdoor eating areas, all lovely. Outdoor grill is usable but far from house. Neighbor with dog and cats is friendly but cats are too, a problem for our cat allergic member. Driveway is long and very bumpy and nearly impossible to find without human guidance the first time. Two restaurants and a market within five minutes driving. Pizza restaurant looks unremarkable but has amazingly good pizza! Villa is a solid 25 minute drive from Pistoia, up a very steep and hairpin-filled climb. It’s very hilly around the villa - four of us rode road bikes for five days and we were stunned by the length and steepness of the climbs - and the lack of flat segments. Relatively easy access to Florence and Cinque Terra - very fun tourist trips. Pistoia is also a lovely city to visit. Davide did an excellent job managing our trip by making suggestions on food, trips, drivers, wine purchasing, local hiking, in villa cooks (we used them twice, once with pasta cooking lesson which was great fun), and he and his father even gave one of our group with a broken leg a four hour tour by car of the area. All in all an excellent one week vacation!

Great house / environment
The villa is super! Clean, good spacey rooms, a proper kitchen. There are nice features like sauna, jacuzzi, a proper swimming pool, place to grill. It is nicely located in surrounded by trees, and it is situated in the hills and therefore a bit cooler - which is very nice, no airco needed! The house owners are very nice, respond fast to messages, are more than willing to tell about the to-do's and the environment of Pistoia... to summarize, a pearl in Tuscany. We were with a group of 17 (adults and kids) and we all loved this location.

Superbe
Notre semaine était magnifique ! La Villa est très bien équipée (chaque chambre a sa sdb). Les extérieurs sont très biens entretenus (piscine, spa, sauna) et la possibilité de manger à 2 endroits différents (terrasse - autour de la piscine) est très agreable. Florence accessible en train est un vrai plus (que demande le peuple) Le seul petit « bémol » pour la maison (pour lui trouver un petit point négatif….) le chemin d’accès à la Villa est très « escarpé », éviter la « FERRARI » et les véhicules trop bas 😉 Et enfin une mention spéciale pour Messieurs FERRARI, père et fils, qui étaient d’une gentillesse et d’une disponibilité sans nom ! Vous avez les remerciements du groupe entier. Denise et les 18 autres membres du groupe.🙋‍♀️

Sehr erholsamer Urlaub in ruhiger Lage
Unser Aufenthalt mit 14 Personen war sehr angenehm und erholsam. Wir wurden von Eigentümer an der nahe gelegenen Tankstelle pünktlich abgeholt, durch das Anwesen geführt und haben nützliche und interessante Tipps zur Umgebung erhalten. Durch den Abstand zur Hauptstraße und die natürliche Bewaldung der Umgebung konnten wir ungestört am Pool entspannen, zusammen draußen essen und grillen und bis spät am Abend draußen sitzen bleiben. Der einzige Nachbar ist sehr nett und verständnisvoll, spricht sehr gutes Englisch und hilft gerne bei Fragen zu den lokalen Gegebenheiten. Vielen Dank und gerne wieder!

Super Ausstattung, perfekt in den Bergen gelegen, nette Vermieter
Wir waren Ende Juni vor Ort und trotz extremer Hitze in der Ebene hatten wir am Haus ca. 8 Grad weniger, so dass man tatsächlich keine Klimaanlage vermisst hat. Das Klima ist perfekt. Wir haben abends lange draußen gesessen und Glühwürmchen beobachtet. Morgens auch schon mal Nebel oder Regen. Die gesamte Ausstattung lässt nichts zu wünschen übrig. Alle Schlafzimmer sind sehr geräumig und genau wie die Bäder sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Einzig in der obersten Etage könnte die Schräge für große Menschen ein Problem darstellen. Der Pool ist toll und super sonnig. Wir waren mit 10 Erwachsenen und 4 Kindern dort, was problemlos funktionierte (wir hatten auch das kleine Gartenhaus dazu gemietet). Auf Wunsch war es auch möglich Kinderbett und Kinderstühle zusätzlich zu bekommen. Das Haus liegt am Hang und ist über einen recht steilen Schotterweg zu erreichen. Dadurch ist es schön abgelegen, allerdings sind Menschen, die nicht sicher laufen können, komplett aufs Auto angewiesen. Viele verschiedene Sitzmöglichkeiten draußen, so dass man viele Alternativen hat und sich auch mal aus dem Weg gehen kann. Die Ferraris sind super nette Vermieter, die auch im Notfall (Gasflasche war leer) super schnell vor Ort waren und geholfen haben.

Prachtig huis op toplocatie
Wij hebben met 14 personen een week in Villa Morelli gelogeerd. Prachtig huis, mooi ingericht en zeer compleet! Mooi privé zwembad. En ontzettend aardige eigenaars die alles doen om het verblijf zo aangenaam mogelijk te maken. Zeer attent! Huis was brandschoon. Locatie is geweldig, rustig en midden in het groen. Zou dit huis aan iedereen aanraden!
