Take a look inside Forno Apartment

Forno Apartment is a charming apartment that blends rustic charm and character in the rolling hills of Chianti, Tuscan countryside. It was built under the Il Paluffo 15th-century ecological estate. The interior is surrounded by stone walls, giving guests the feeling of being in a Tuscan castle. Its name Forno was derived from the legacy of Forno, a bread-oven maker. This oven is still used today to make wood-fired pizza. This villa, which is 2-storey in height, has 2 bedrooms and can accommodate 4 people. Villa Forno is strongly influenced by the Il Paluffo philosophy of green, heritage and luxurious design, as well as Italian warm hospitality. The private garden is furnished with patio furniture and a dining table so guests can relax outdoors and enjoy the peaceful sounds and scenes.

Magic corner of Tuscany: We only had a short two days in Tuscany, but they were magical at Forno Apartment. This is a beautiful location, the rooms are comfortable and elegant, the food was amazing, and the staff is beyond accommodating. October is a beautiful month to travel to Italy. Carve out some time and send it at Forno Apartment!

We had a wonderful stay staying here! We stayed three nights at Forno Apartment. The staff was excellent; there was great communication prior to and during our stay. The accommodation is beautiful and well-maintained. We also enjoyed the cooking class and the shiatsu massage that was arranged for us. Just sad we couldn't stay longer.

This was the most beautiful place we'd ever been to. I felt like we were in a Tuscan castle with the most beautiful views I have ever seen. We rented a villa for our family of four which was three floors of rustic beauty. We purposely kept the window open at night so we could hear the rooster's wake-up call in the morning. If you go, be sure to sign up for the cooking class! We made pasta as well as other traditional dishes. Delicious and also a fun activity! We hated to leave!
