Villa Location
Villa Francesca is located in the countryside off the road leading from Montecatini to Fucecchio. You access the property by turning into a short unpaved road leading to the gate.

Local Area
Montecatini is the closest city, just 15 minutes away by car. Here you can stroll in the beautiful center and the gardens of the famous Thermal spa. Relax at the thermal baths at Monsummano or Montecatini, or play at the nearby Montecatini golf course. In Montelupo Fiorentino, you can shop for fine ceramics or visit the ceramics museum. The nearby town of Fucecchio has a lovely historical center and an interesting museum, Museo Civico. There is also a nature preserve, Padule, where you can take guided walks and observe local vegetation and animals. Vinci is the birthplace of Leonardo da Vinci, while Collodi is popular for the Pinocchio children's tale. The medieval San Miniato was visited by many emperors, and Empoli, a larger center, boasts the Museo della Collegiata, rich in artworks from 1300 to 1600.
