Il Casalone

Il Casalone in Impruneta is a small, hillside holiday-apartment property with a classic Tuscan-villa feel and a relaxed, countryside pace just outside Florence.

Apartment-style comfort: Accommodations are set up as classic-style apartments with a bedroom, living area, and a fully equipped kitchenette, which suits longer stays and self-catering. Many units include an outdoor patio with garden views for easy indoor–outdoor downtime.

Pool and garden time: A free outdoor pool and a furnished garden with barbecue facilities make it easy to spend unhurried afternoons on-site. The pool is seasonal (typically open from May 1 to October 1), so warm-weather trips get the biggest payoff.

Practical extras: Free Wi‑Fi and free on-site parking support a low-friction stay, especially for day trips. A washing machine is available in a communal area, which is helpful for families and multi-stop itineraries.

Location for day trips: Il Casalone sits about a 5-minute drive from Impruneta’s town center, and Florence is roughly 11 km away, making sightseeing feel close without sleeping in the city. It’s a good base for pairing quiet evenings with busy museum days.

Car-dependent setting: You’ll generally want your own vehicle, as the property is not well served by public transport. That trade-off brings more calm, but less spontaneity for car-free travelers.

Hillside access: Because the property is on a hillside, there are steps to reach some apartments, which may be inconvenient with heavy luggage or limited mobility.

Seasonal and house-rules limits: The outdoor pool won’t suit winter stays, and quiet hours plus no-party rules may feel restrictive for groups planning late nights.
