Feronia
Europe / Italy / Tuscany
In ancient mythology, Feronia is an Italic goddess associated with wildlife, fertility, and abundance.
Overview
Villa Feronia, a stunning luxury villa set majestically on the outskirts of Florence, fully embodies those associations thanks to its rich grounds that include a pond, oak and cypress trees, bountiful olive groves, generous vineyards, and endless breathtaking views of the Renaissance city and its magnificent cathedral, The Duomo.
Villa Feronia, which dates back to 14th century and is known to have been the residence of one of the most renowned Renaissance painters, is composed of five buildings on the same estate. It can accommodate up to 37 guests, making it one of the largest villas to rent in Tuscany.
There are many treasures to discover in the surrounding areas: the famous Chianti wine region is within easy reach; the art city of Florence with its rich history, architecture and cuisine is just a 15-minute drive away; and Lucca and Siena are each less than one hour away. Villa Feronia is the place where you can feel the energies of the past and the present come together, from where you can start your day exploring Tuscany’s main attractions, and where you can relax during the evening over a great glass of wine and a scrumptious local meal. The only thing you will not like is having to leave this little slice of heaven.
Each building features a living area, fully equipped kitchen, and spacious common interiors, all designed to facilitate comfortable gatherings for cooking, dining, and relaxing. The elegant rooms are meticulously decorated, striving to achieve a simple elegance, typical of the chic Tuscan country style in which less is more. Everything is in perfect balance, with excellent furniture, beautiful wall art and rich fabric all beautifully blended together. Each building features a living area and fully equipped kitchen.
The estate includes designed gardens with lounging areas where you can relax while enjoying one of the most spectacular city views available from the countryside that includes Florence’s skyline in the distance with its unmistakable cathedral dome. Two beautifully designed swimming pools that shimmer in the sun invite guests to cool off from the summer heat; the infinity swimming pool can be heated on request. Relishing savory and elegant meals al fresco under the stars is just one of the varieties of purely joyful experiences you can have at Villa Feronia. Also available to guests is the villa’s vegetable garden with its deliciously ripe seasonal produce.
Located in the suburbs of Florence, with its Duomo dome visible in the distance, Villa Feronia is a wine country luxury estate. With daily continental breakfast included and where every bedroom comes with an en suite bathroom, this chic villa is a great choice for very large groups, multi-generational reunions, business retreats, celebrations and weddings. The villa has a sleek country vibe, with original and beautifully aged parquet floors and architectural details dating back to 14th century. The sense of age at this modernized property and the physical beauty of the abundant estate will stay in your memory long after you return home from your vacation.
