Slow travel in the tuscan countryside: rediscover time through nature, silence and authenticity

A different way to explore

Not everything that matters can be measured in miles. Slow travel is an invitation to slow down, to look at places with new eyes, to listen to nature and feel the rhythm of the land. In Tuscany, this way of traveling reaches its peak among the hills and villages of Buggiano Castello, where you’ll find Villa Sermolli.

Not just visiting the countryside — living it

Villa Sermolli is not a typical hotel. It’s a historic residence surrounded by greenery, where every space invites stillness. Here you can read on a terrace, stroll through olive groves, or simply watch the clouds drift over the valley. Every gesture is simple — and that’s what makes it deeply restorative.

A villa made for peace seekers

All rooms are unique, featuring natural materials and views of the garden or the medieval village. Silence here is precious: broken only by the wind, the birds, or the distant sound of church bells. It’s a place that invites you to breathe more slowly.

Slow travel in the tuscan countryside: things to do… slowly

Slow travel doesn’t mean doing nothing — it means being present. At Villa Sermolli, you can:
– take unhurried walks through the hills
– enjoy a picnic with a view
– savor a Tuscan dinner made with local ingredients
– join a wine or olive oil tasting
– visit nearby villages at your own pace

There are no tight schedules, no pressure to see everything. Just space to be.

The land told by those who live it

Our team knows this place deeply and loves to share it. You’ll receive suggestions for a family-run trattoria, a path among wildflowers, or a local festival worth joining. Slow travel is also about human connection.

A place to disconnect — and reconnect

This isn’t a place for smart working. It’s a place to write in a journal, draw, cook together or enjoy the beauty of doing nothing. And that’s more than enough.

Close to everything, yet far from it all

Buggiano Castello is just minutes from Montecatini, 30 from Lucca and Pistoia. But as soon as you climb the old stone steps to the villa, you’ll feel like you’ve entered another world — slower, quieter, and more human.

Book your slow escape in Tuscany

Whether for a weekend or a full week, Villa Sermolli is ready to welcome you with calm and care. Discover the rhythm of nature, the value of simplicity, and the art of slowing down.

Discover Villa Sermolli and its baroque garden — slowly.

Everyone at Villa Sermolli knows the territory and loves to share it. Guests receive personalized tips — from scenic trails through olive groves to artisan shops, hidden chapels, and secret gardens. The experience feels curated, not scripted.

Stay with a View in Tuscany: relaxation, nature and timeless beauty

When the view becomes an experience

Waking up to olive trees, cypress silhouettes and stone rooftops. Sipping your morning coffee while gazing across the valley, as the Tuscan hills fade into the distance. A stay with a view in Tuscany is more than a holiday — it’s a new rhythm, a different way of being.

Villa Sermolli: Tuscany from above

Located in Buggiano Castello, between Lucca and Florence, Villa Sermolli overlooks one of the most peaceful and scenic areas of central Tuscany. Its rooms and suites open onto landscapes dotted with olive groves, gardens and hilltop towns. From the terraces, sunsets become rituals of light and color.

Rooms with a view: every window a painting

Each room at the villa is unique — but they all share the same gift: the view. Some face the rooftops of the medieval village, others overlook the valley or the historic baroque garden. Mornings are filled with natural light, birdsong and the soft breeze from the hills.

Terraces and outdoor spaces

The terraced garden invites you to slow down: read under the lemon trees, enjoy a glass of wine at dusk, sit quietly as the shadows stretch over the landscape. Comfortable chairs and small tables on the terraces make the perfect setting for a drink, a conversation or simply a deep breath.

The panoramic pool

One of Villa Sermolli’s highlights is the pool overlooking the valley. Surrounded by greenery, it’s ideal for sunbathing, swimming or just gazing at the horizon. Sun loungers and shaded areas complete the relaxing summer experience.

Living slowly between Lucca and Florence

Buggiano Castello is perfectly located for exploring the region: Lucca, Montecatini, Pistoia, Florence. But it also rewards those who stay still — walking the village alleys, visiting the historic gardens, breathing in the scent of wisteria and citrus in bloom.

Who is this stay for?

For anyone seeking a pause. For those who love quiet beauty and authentic places. For couples on a romantic escape, solo travelers in search of inspiration, or friends reconnecting over meaningful moments. It’s for you — if you want your stay to nourish more than just your body.

Thoughtful touches

On request, we can arrange breakfast on your private terrace, outdoor massages, panoramic picnics or romantic dinners with a view. Our philosophy is simple: true hospitality, discreet and meaningful.
