Monthly Rentals in Poggio Gherardo

This is a lovely and well equipped small house/apartment in the outskirts of Florence and very close to Settignano. Easy to find, conveniently located, near Villa I Tatti and a small village area (Ponte a Mensola) with a few shops, looking out over a park with walking trails and athletic fields. Elisabetta and her parents are extremely kind and helpful with evey detail.

Everything was great. You can't imagine a better hostess and host than Paola and Enrico! Always respond, very friendly, very good tips! The apartment feels completely like home. Good place in the city. We do everything by bike. Perfect!

Alessandro and Nicolette were super friendly and always greeted us with big smiles! Alessandro even went out of his way to pick us up from the train station on our first day, and gave us a bunch of mini tours around the neighborhood, which was such a nice touch. The place itself is quiet, peaceful, and has some amazing views—perfect for a relaxing stay. One of our favorite things was watching the sunset while enjoying our own homemade pasta. Pure bliss! It’s definitely a great spot if you’re looking for a countryside vibe but still want to be close to the city. Thanks again, Ale, for being such an awesome host—we really hope to come back and see you again someday!

Susanna and her husband are wonderful hosts, offering plenty of helpful advice and recommendations for dining and sightseeing. The accommodation is immaculately clean, tastefully decorated, and equipped with essential amenities, including a kettle, mini fridge, espresso machine, hairdryer, and towels. The room is a great size for a couple who don’t travel light. The only thing I missed was hand soap in the bathroom. Guests have access to two outdoor spaces - one with a small table and chairs, and the other a terrace boasting spectacular views over the city of Florence. Fiesole sits on the outskirts of Florence (great if you have a car) with a bus stop less than a 10-minute walk from the accommodation, providing a direct route to Florence’s central train station. Alternatively, you can drive and park in a convenient car park near the city center, recommended by Susanna (cost of approximately 2–3 euros per hour). We will be back sometime in the future to explore more of Florence :)
