A Charming Medieval Inn in the Untouched Environment of the Pistoia Apennines

Set in a lush valley, just 40 minutes by car from Florence, Locanda Le Panche is a holiday home with antique charm, perfectly tailored to the needs of modern tourism. It features a private swimming pool and a garden on the banks of the river Reno.
The 5 units, each personalized according to a theme and a prevailing colour, overlook the same corridor, thus recreating the atmosphere of a large house but assuring all guests the privacy and comfort of their large private spaces.
Apartment Tradition, with an extendable table and its cosy atmosphere, houses the main kitchen, complete with induction hob, dishwasher, electric oven, microwave and the dining area with room for up to 14 people. This apartment has a mezzanine double bedroom.
Together with the other studios Passion (double bed and bathroom), Elegance (double bed, sofa bed and bathroom), Glamour (double or twin beds, sofa bed and bathroom) and the new studio Nature (also suitable for disabled people, accessible by lift and equipped with 2 single beds or double bed and a specific bathroom), our holiday home can comfortably accommodate up to 14 guests in a refined and charming atmosphere.

We called it 'Old Inn Le Panche' to emphasise the building's history that is lost in ancient times, when travelers and pilgrims from North stopped here, along the banks of the river Reno, on their way towards Rome. We restored it in 2010 in order to make it a cosy and comfortable place. We used traditional materials and ancient furniture to maintain its original character and charm.
In 2023 we also made our property accessible to people with reduced mobility, creating a new entrance near the car park and an elevator that leads to the first floor, where the bedrooms, living room and kitchen are located, furnished with the typical taste of a traditional Tuscan house, from terracotta floors to wooden ceilings and with a touch of modern design.
Located next to a restaurant with ancient and fascinating spaces, where you can rediscover the flavors of traditional Tuscan cuisine, our holiday home has a private garden with swimming pool.
For the exclusive use of our guests, tables with chairs and a barbecue are available for outdoor dining as well as sun loungers and deckchairs for sunbathing or rather relaxing in the shade. The swimming pool, available from May to the end of September, is equipped with a night cover and heated with a heat pump.
During your stay at this vacation home, you'll be close to SMI Shelters Museum. Features include an outdoor pool and laundry facilities. Enjoy your stay with amenities like free WiFi and a private pool in the vacation home.
