It has been recently refurbished and it is now a very comfortable mansion with wide common areas (three living rooms, a 16 place dining and a cosy kitchen), 5 double bedrooms (all en suite bathrooms) and a fitness area with a 4 place sauna and a 7 place hydro massage.
Outside the Villa our guests can enjoy the heated swimming pool, relax in a 2000sq.m private garden with apple and maple trees and walk along the shady banks of the Reno River.
Villa Le Panche is in fact located in a very green area, at a distance of 40 minutes by car from Florence and just 15 minutes from downtown Pistoia.
