Palazzo a Merse is a characterful Tuscan hamlet where history and rural charm come together. The estate consists of an 18th-century farmhouse built around a former mill dating back to the 13th century. Lovingly restored, it has been transformed into a collection of seven stylish holiday accommodations, while the old mill is occasionally used for small events, adding to the property’s authentic atmosphere. The space Set in the Val di Merse, a region famed for its sweeping sunflower fields, each villa enjoys its own furnished outdoor space. These open directly onto the tree-shaded communal gardens, where an attractive shared swimming pool invites relaxation. A covered terrace is also available, where breakfast can be served on request. Peaceful surroundings and generous outdoor spaces make Palazzo a Merse an ideal retreat for a relaxed holiday close to nature. The nearest village offering good amenities is Rosia, around 5 km away, offering a supermarket, bakery, bars and restaurants. Dining options can also be found in nearby villages, with the owners especially recommending Ristorante dal Cateni in Orgia, just a short drive away. Golf enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity of Royal Golf La Bagnaia, only 1.5 km from the estate.
