Wonderful private villa for 4 people with WIFI, A/C, patio and pets allowed, close to Arezzo
IL PIGIONALE is a beautiful centuries' old building that will enchant you with its local traditional features: the original authentic fireplace, used for cooking, or the original staircase... you will be captured by the fusion of antique and modern style and mostly you will fall in love with the atmosphere of this small Tuscan village. Non touristic route, Pergine Valdarno, will show you the normal everyday life of the locals going to get an espresso in the morning or buying their fresh bread. everyone will make you feel welcome and if you're lucky enough to spend some days here, you will finally feel part of it.
We suggest having a car as the best way to visit the area!
The terrace, where one can enjoy a glass of wine, is open directly on the small square of the village and has garden furniture. The square is a pedestrian only area, making it particularly quiet and clean. Necessities such as a grocery, bakery, restaurant, bank, post office, pharmacy and police are all within short walking distance.
Pergine Valdarno is a very typical small village in Tuscany, surrounded by olive trees. In the middle of Tuscany between Florence, Arezzo and Siena.
There’s a FREE Guide book that can give our guests some information about the "what to do" in the area. The main golf courses are about 29 km away. No skiing in this area. Tennis court is located at 6 km.

===== ACCOMMODATION DESCRIPTION ===== Il Pigionale used to be the hostel of this medieval village! A stone tower over two levels with a narrow terrace to lead you to the entrance. A grapevine grows from a tiny hole in the stone to give you shade while sitting and looking at people passing by on the main square, why not, with a glass of wine in your hand? By the entrance the dining room with a wooden round table, a cupboard and a fireplace for a very well equipped kitchen. To the left of the entrance the living room with sofa and a screen with streaming TV. There is also a bathroom built in the staircase of the house! Opposite the main entrance an old stone staircase takes you to the second floor with two separate rooms, a double bedroom and a bedroom with 2 single beds. Even if the house is always very cool even in the hottest summer days, both rooms are air conditioned. A bathroom with shower, sink and toilet serves the second floor. WiFi available. A large laundry room, in the basement of the house, with washing and dryer machine (and washing soap), iron and iron board with hanging wracks.
The living room is large and bright. A comfortable sofa with two armchairs make a cozy corner to watch TV with Netflix and Amazon Video. A big wardrobe decorates the room and a very unique gaming table to sit and play or use your computer!
The kitchen is well equipped with microwave, stoves, oven, coffee machine, toaster, dishwasher and of course utensils. We provide basics such as coffee powder, sugar, salt, locally made olive oil, vinegar and little snacks. Also dish soap and dishwasher tabs are part of the kitchen equipment.

We spent two weeks at Il Pigionale. Irene looked after every detail and was an awesome host! Absolutely awesome !!! The accommodation was very comfortable and well equipped. An excellent base for touring the Tuscany in our rental car. And do not miss cooking with Irene and Edoardo - this was a superb evening. We highly recommend Irene and her properties 👍

Villa was perfect, the village was so peaceful and the people very friendly and helpful.
Irene was the most thoughtful and helpful host I have ever known. Her local knowledge and information made such a difference to our somewhat random plan. Such a beautiful area and staying at Il Pigionale made it a fantastic holiday. Thank you, Irene.

This little house had everything we needed. The village is just what my husband and I were looking for - quaint, quiet, friendly, and close to many larger towns for day trips. However, the best part of this rental was the unexpected awesomeness of Irene and Edoardo - the owners and hosts. The two of them made our experience unforgettable, personable, and unique. They were always on the ready for advice or suggestions, and even were available to be tour guides. They became more like friends than tour guides! We will definitely go back and stay at one of Irene and Edoardo’s places!

I higly recommend this Villa and the owner as well. :)
2-floors, stylish furnished and equipped with all necessary things.
Beutiful garden with swimming-pool (did not use it, as we stayed in Nov).
All rooms with bathrooms - it is very comfortable.
Irene is a perfect host! She took care of us and show around a village.
Her tips and hints were very useful.
This is a truly TUSCANY place :)
Would love to come back on summer with friends.

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Perrine Valdarno and Il Pigionale. The family who owns the villa is absolutely delightful and hardworking. This location is in a quiet village with basic services, including a restaurant, within a city block's walking distance and is situated in a central position to explore Tuscany. Of course, like previous renters, we loved the "Cooking night" at the owner's farmhouse.

We had a wonderful time in Tuscany and Il Pigionale was one of the main reasons. It's an old building but in perfect shape, spotlessly clean, and thus very charming. The piazza in which it's located is scenic and lovely.
Most important, Irene, the property manager, was friendly and helpful and flexible and...just great. She was a big part of making this a really memorable stay.
