Why Peet chose Soiana
We chose this property because of its convenient location close to all the major places of interest in Tuscany. The situation within a friendly village with far reaching views makes it an ideal home from home. The rooms are spacious and have high beamed ceilings and terracotta floors which keep it cool in summer. The large garden and refreshing pool make it a relaxing place to unwind and enjoy the views towards Pisa and the mountains.
What makes this apartment unique
The building is an historic old Tuscan farm/villa within a working village full of interesting characters and architectural features. The house has been comfortably and authentically updated with many original features preserved. There is parking and sun and shade all day in the lovely garden. There is pool furniture freely available .
