Beauty, charm and tranquillity an hour from Florence, on a bio-sensitive farm known for Chianina cattle and white truffles

Read guest comments

Wind through woods to discover a world of earthy smells, apricot orchards, and neatly stacked bales of hay. As you’re ferried up the hills in Barbialla’s dusty 4x4, the views are thrilling and wide.

Set far apart, these rustic-chic farmhouse apartments are cool in summer and cosy in winter. Le Trosce (sleeps 8-10) is for one single group. Doderi’s garden includes a small house for two, and Brentina lies deep in the woods. All have access to a lovely pool. Find a fishing lake, a small farm shop, and cows on the hills – or in pristine stalls.

Join the pigs foraging in the cool shade of the woods. Head off to San Gimignano, Volterra, Florence. This part of Tuscany is less known than others, yet is every bit as beautiful. Hilltop Montaione is 8km; Palaia and Castelfiorentino are further. All have amazing farmers' markets.

Local points of interest from Guido Manfredi:

Punti d'interesse locali da
Guido Manfredi:

  • Taste the organic meat and products by Fattoria Barbialla Nuova in our short chain restaurant. Built in the middle of a garden center with a stunning view on Florence, Le Lune Ristorante nel Vivaio is a lovely place to dine.
  • Explore the region: there are various marked walking and hiking trails on the property. At check in, you'll receive a detailed map that shows the trails which will take you past ruins and cliffs, forests and pastures.
  • Spend a day slow-fooding it. Forage for blackberries near the lake. Take some snacks and make a picknick!
  • Visiting in Autumn? Join us on a truffle hunt in the woods of Barbialla. We lead our guests on a unique experience to discover the aromatic and delectable white truffle that grows in our Truffle Reserves.
  • Once you're tired of nature and wild boar-sightings, venture out to see the famous Città d'Arte. Barbialla is located in the heart of Tuscany's Golden Triangle, so Pisa, Siena, Lucca, Florence and Livorno are all within an hour's drive.
  • Plenty of the nearby hill-towns can be visited in just an afternoon: Breathtaking San Gimignano hosts a world-famous contemporary art gallery. Volterra has Roman and Etruscan ruins within its walls. Certaldo is home to a lively Street Theater festival.

"Barbialla is a very special place. We stayed In Doderi Alto- the upper floor of a delightful converted farmhouse high up in the Tuscan hills. All three bedrooms had ensuites and plenty of room for 6 adults though we were only 4. During our stay we saw wild boar, deer and badgers wandering about in our garden at night and at dusk. Staff were helpful friendly and knowledgeable and plainly love working there. A relaxing truly 'get away from it all' break but with great wifi if you have to stay in touch with the outside world. Accommodation was comfortably rustic but with 21c plumbing! "

"This was our first experience of Italy and I must saw that we were off to a terrific start. Our farmhouse was huge with space to space way out in the country. It was the real Italy, the one in my dreams. Ivano and Kyra made it so easy to be there. They were beyond accommodating. Our fondest memories of our visit would be having coffee with Ivano and listening to the stories of Italy. Truffling hunting was sublime ending with wine and truffled snacks. Simply brilliant. What a great place to stay."

"Barbialla provided everything I was looking for. Comfortable, rustic accommodation, beautiful farmland in which to wander, easy access to fresh organic food, and, above all, peace and tranquility. The staff couldn't have been friendlier and more helpful. Choosing to stay here hit the right note on all counts - 10/10."
