Montelupo Fiorentino is a pretty village, located just on the outskirts of Florence, that has been an important centre for handmade ceramics in Tuscany since the Middle Ages. Montelupo ceramics were traded and dispensed all across Europe and quickly became synonymous with quality and beautiful craftsmanship. Today, it is home to plenty of workshops still producing the pieces and a museum dedicated to the craft, the Museum of Ceramics in Montelupo. If you have found a vacation rental in Florence and are interested in Tuscany's long legacy of excellence in all of the arts but need a break from the busy historic centre and bustling museums of the city, this is a great place to soak up the region's history of artisanal prowess and even shop it, all while enjoying a slower pace and calmer lifestyle.

Guest Reviews for La Rosa
We had a wonderful time staying here and the hosts are very friendly and helpful. The villa had everything we needed and was well maintained. It is perfect for a family get together. The only comment I have is that it would have been great to be able to walk into the town but this wasn’t really possible as it was on a hill with roads with no footpaths that we could walk on.

La villa idéale pour un grand groupe. La taille de la maison et son équipement permettent de vivre nombreux sans promiscuité tout en étant ensemble. La taille de la piscine et les nombreuses chaises longues font que tous peuvent s'y retrouver pour nager jouer ou se reposer.
