Luxury Holidays At Villa La Massa

Immersed in the heart of Tuscany, just six miles from the historic centre of Florence, this beautiful 13th-century Medici palazzo and estate is nestled right next to the Arno River, surrounded by hills and over twenty acres of lush gardens full of lemon and olive groves. Three ochre and pink-coloured villas - the original Noble Villa, the Mill and the Villino - one traditional farmhouse, Casa Colonica, and the new two-storey Limonaia villa house the guest rooms and suites. Each is individually designed in classic renaissance and contemporary style and offers breathtaking views over the river or Tuscan countryside. Villa La Massa is the perfect place to rest and unwind after a long day of touring the area or sightseeing and shopping in Florence. This delightful retreat also has its own chapel and boasts the same renowned service of its sister hotel on Lake Como, Villa d'Este, which has earned it a place as a member of ‘The Leading Hotels of the World’.
