About the home

The house is an early 20th century Art Nouveau building recently restored, according to its original style, with care and attention for the details.

It is situated in a peaceful hamlet, surrounded by a large park with centennial beech and oak trees, on a dominant position upon a hill overlooking the Reno Valley.

The villa used to belong to Sen. Gismondo Morelli Gualtierotti, Minister of Post from 1904, and it was designed by the same architect as the Supreme Court palace in Rome. The façade's Art Nouveau style was very trendy at the time but quite unusual in a green rural area such as the Apennines of Pistoia.

Behind the Palazzo, the beautiful private grounds lead to the swimming pool area, enriched with contemporary sculptures made of Carrara marble. This unique location provides endless outdoor opportunities such as walking excursions, mountain bike and horse riding.

Moreover, Pistoia's central position between Florence and the Tuscan Riviera is strategic in order to make daily excursions to the most famous art cities of Tuscany as well as to the beaches of Versilia.

Facilities

Further details indoors:
At the villa's ground floor guests will find a modern fully equipped kitchen and a bright living room with a large Art Nouveau glass window over the natural setting.

Pretty curved stairs take to the upper floors where six bedrooms, all supplied with en-suite bathrooms, are located. Each bedroom is dedicated to a different artist of the period between the second half of 19th Centrury and the first half of the 20th.
All the different rooms are furnished with an astonishing combination of original ancient furniture, Bauhaus style pieces and some contemporary design elements.

Two more bedrooms are available at an additional price of € 700 per week in a cosy dependance, in fact an independent apartment, next to the swimming pool .

Further details outdoors:
From the first floor, guests will have access to the rear garden fully equipped with outdoor furniture (tables, chairs, beach beds and umbrellas) and a barbecue and dining area overlooking the swimming pool.

Further details

The Swimming pool is available from early May to late September.

The Ski season on the Pistoia Apennine Mountains usually starts in early December and lasts until April.

30% of rental fee due at reservation to secure booking. It is refundable until 60 days before check in.

The Tuscany / Pistoia Province region

Tuscany is certainly one of the best known among the Italian regions. It is the land of the Renaissance's capital city, Florence, as well as of many other beautiful medieval towns and villages. It is worldwide famous for the beautiful sweet hills and for the excellence of its wines and food products.

All the different areas of Tuscany represent a world to discover for their natural peculiarities, for the widespread architectural wealth, for the gastronomic traditions and the many folkloric and cultural events.

The Pistoia area

Visitors to the Pistoia Apennines can enjoy its well preserved natural environment and breathtaking views. So it was for the iconic actor and philanthropist Paul Newman who chose to locate in this area, in a WWF oasis, its Dynamo Camp, a center of recreational therapy for children with serious illnesses.
The area is a perfect destination for those who love all kinds of outdoor sports: the mountains are rich with trails for walking, mountain biking or horseback riding, as well as rivers and lakes for fishing. During the summer, the Pistoia Mountains offer a rich program of cultural and recreational events such as music and folklore festivals, gastronomic fairs and medieval reenactments.

Located 20 minutes from Florence and Lucca, Pistoia also has much to offer in terms of history, art, monuments, traditions, nature and cuisine. Walking through the picturesque streets of its historic center, visitors will find many good restaurants that offer authentic dishes of the Tuscan tradition, as well as local wines, at fair prices. Pistoia also offers one of the major zoological gardens in Italy.
To visit, nearby, Vinci with the Leonardian museum, Montecatini with its thermal baths, the medieval villages of Valdinievole including Collodi, the town of Pinocchio.

During the winter season, our area offers modern downhill and cross-country ski facilities. With over 80 kms of Alpine ski slopes, Abetone is the most important winter resort in Central Italy. Cross-country tracks are located at 15 minute drive from our villa, while downhill slopes can be reached in 30 minutes.

All main facilities (shops, supermarkets, banks with ATM, post offices, pharmacies, hospital) are very closely located (between 1 and 10 km from the property).

Guestbook for Villa Morelli Gualtierotti

We enjoyed a wonderful holiday at the villa the first week of august. We were a group of 3 families (6 adults + 5 children) and the house was big enough to provide us a comfortable stay. The owner was very helpful, yet very discrete as well. On our request, a ping-pong table was installed on the terrace, and was used extensively by the group. Nearby - only 5 minutes drive - there is an excellent ristorante/pizzeria. The access road looks a bit daunting the first times, but you quickly get used to it - even without a four wheel drive. Certainly a place to recommend for those who like to combine Tuscan culture and country-side with the possibility to go hiking in the Appenines.

Es entsprach nicht nur der Beschreibung, sondern wir möchten der Unterkunft, Ausstattung und Umgebung ebenfalls jeweils 5 von 5 Punkten geben.
Die Betreuung durch die Vermieter vor Ort war sehr gut, jede unserer Anfragen wurde sorgfältig beantwortet!
Das Klima war für uns super: wenn wir aus dem heißen Florenz oder Lucca zurück kamen, war es wunderbar, in der waldigen, kühlen Umgebung den Pool zu genießen. Ein wunderbarer Urlaub.
Vielen Dank an die Vermieter.

We spent 3 lovely weeks at Villa Morelli this year. We are a family of 5 and we all enjoyed its peace, tranquility, excellent facilities and of course the wonderfully warm welcome from its owners.
It was a great base for exploring that part of Tuscany and having a nearby train station proved extremely useful when a friend was able to get to us using public transport from Bologna airport. A great time was had by all!
