Agriturismo il Colle is located in Mugello by San Godenzo, approx. 40 km from Florence and a few kilometres from the highest peaks of the Tuscan Apennines. The farm is surrounded by chestnut and oak trees as well as olive groves, and enjoys a wonderful, sunny location.
The hospitable and friendly family who own Il Colle moved here from Fiesole in the middle of the 1990s. The wife cares for the animals, whilst the husband tends the agricultural land and the woods. The couple have restored the whole house themselves, and created three pleasant apartments plus two bedrooms for guest accommodation. Alternatively a group seeking a private pool can rent the whole place.

Very nice place with friendly hosts.
Calm surroundings. 5 stars! Definitely going there again.
Excellent host couple, who doesn't know all the good, they do for their guests.
A fantastic and lovely place, where the only thing who's limping, is the Wifi-connection.
Wonderful stay. Warm welcome by the hosts and in the most beautiful surroundings one can imagen.
We stayed there for 5 days. 2 adults and 3 kids.
The pool-area is bigger than it seems on the pictures. It is large and deep and can handle a lot of people without problems.
A must try is their own restaurant!! We've got a 4-course meal with wine for 25 Euro for the adults and a bit cheaper for the kids. The food was fantastic and even the kids loved it!
There is a lot of hiking routes in the area. We didn't tried it ourselves, but the other guest did recommend it to us.
We can highly recommend this place if you are looking for an authentic stay and close to all of the sights. And the hosts was just amazing and kind.
