About Villa D’Arte Agriresort

Villa D'Arte Agriresort is a frescoed Tuscan villa at Pontassieve, twenty minutes east of Florence, with two historic saloni, licensed Italian gardens, a medieval cellar, a Catholic chapel and rooms on site.

Villa D'Arte Agriresort is a classic Tuscan villa in the Chianti hills above Pontassieve, on the eastern side of Florence. The estate is a working agriresort and holds two frescoed saloni, the Salone Adriano and the Salone Granducato, a medieval vaulted cellar, Italian gardens, a panoramic terrace and a wooden terrace under a Cedar of Lebanon. The pool is illuminated at night, and spa facilities are on site.

Incredible villa hidden in the Tuscan Hills

We found this amazing Villa quite by accident and it ended up being one of the most memorable and favourite places we stayed at. From the lovely friendly welcome from Philippe to the absolutely delicious dinner under the stars on the terrace, this professionally restored Villa was truly just so beautiful. Spotlessly clean throughout, comfortable beds, great pool area and a fantastic breakfast. We loved our stay and the staff so much that our daughter is planing to have her wedding here Highly recommended AAA

Amazing villa with outstanding views

Beautifully situated in the hills with outstanding views. We were their for our son’s wedding over 3 days. The rooms are all decorated differently and have beautiful views. A very unique villa with lots of character and charm. Staff very friendly and attentive. Lovely swimming pool area with bar. Breakfast was delicious plenty to chose from. Definitely worth a stay.

Great villa in the heart of beautiful Tuscany

We attended the Villa D'Arte for my daughter's wedding and were all very impressed.
The Tuscan location is outstanding with spacious rooms and outdoor pool, the fantastic staff worked tirelessly and the food provided was traditional and delicious.
Would highly recommend for a wedding venue or a base to explore Tuscany.
