Vacation Rental Description
Ballerina is one of the apartment of a restored ancient building. This building has had various uses in the past, accomodating animals, families and pupils, too! It used to be an elementary school, this is why there are old palm trees in the garden (quite unusual in Tuscany countryside!). Now it is a complex with beautiful views on the surrounding countryside that hosts 6 apartments, all tastefully furnished in simple Tuscan country style and a villa. The front door opens directly on the garden, that has garden forniture, so that you can relax and have breakfast, lunch, aperitivo or dinner alfresco. Not to mention after dinner relax!
Ballerina is on the ground floor, there are no steps inside the apartment, so also very young children love to crawl around. There is a large living room with double sofa-bed, dining area and kitchen, a bright double bedroom, a bedroom with bunk bed and bathroom with shower. We will bw happy to put boys' or girls' cartoon characters bedspreads on their beds.
Our beautiful swimming pool, with a shallow end perfect for the children, is situated in our own characteristic olive grove. There is also a BBQ house so you can cook an authentic Fiorentina steak (ask us where to shop)!
This apartment is loved by families, with plenty in the surrounding area to see and do during the stay. It is situated in a peaceful and panoramic location, immersed in the green hills of the Parco delle Cerbaie and in the Padule di Fucecchio (unique area where even storks come to nest). It is located in the very heart of Tuscany, with the art cities of Pisa, Lucca, Firenze within very easy reach and many lesser know treasure little towns still to be explored nearby.

Owner Location Comment
On the penultimate weekend of May the town of Fucecchio hosts the traditional horse race Palio delle Contrade. The Palio delle Contrade is an important kermesse, a sort of commemoration of the Contesa which took place in Fucecchio around 1200. The last Palio performed on June 14th 1863: in that moment, the Giostra was buried, until today, when the twelve contrade give life to this old challenge. It is a day that passionates of traditional festival should not miss: an historical parade takes place in the morning, while the horse race is held in the afternoon, at Buca del Palio. Travel Options
