Holiday apartments on country estate with communal pool, its own small golf course and wellness centre

The Country Resort Le Sodole lies in the heart of Tuscany, between Pisa and Florence, surrounded by vineyards.

The twelve comfortable apartments all have a kitchen and are elegantly furnished in a rustic style. Here, a guest can relax by the pool with a glass of Chianti wine from the estate’s own vineyard. Also well suited for business travellers. The house has a sauna and steam room. The Le Sodole restaurant is in a hall with a vaulted ceiling; here you can enjoy typical Tuscan dishes. For guests who are interested, a nine-hole putting green is also available.

The two buildings, which together make up the Country Resort, have formed the core of the property since the 17th Century. This is where aristocratic Tuscan families like the Franceschis and the Torrigiani Malaspinas lived in past centuries through to 1976, and where the current owner, the Conte Aldobrando degli Azzini Avogadro, now lives. After careful restoration, twelve apartments were created, each for two to six people. The Country Resort Le Sodole offers a large swimming pool and a small wellness centre with sauna and steam bath, gym and massages as well as a golf driving range and a hall for meetings and Azzoni Avogadro wine tasting.
