Tuscan Fireplace Apt · Jacuzzi · Gym · Cold Plunge · Monthly · Eur 31/pax/night

Fully furnished Tuscan farmhouse apartment for mid-term stays. Fireplace, full kitchen, laundry, 50Mbps WiFi, utilities included, olive grove jacuzzi.

La Stalla is a private ground-floor apartment in an 18th-century organic farmhouse built into a hillside above Pescia. It is available as an extended stay of one to five months between November 2026 and March 2027 — for people who want to live somewhere rather than visit it. Stone walls, chestnut ceiling beams, an original working stone fireplace, and underfloor heating throughout.

In winter, when the Tuscan hills go amber then bare and the valley fog settles below in the mornings, La Stalla becomes one of those rare environments in which the season itself becomes the reason to be there. The kind of fire you light in November and don’t let go out until March.
