Description
The bed & breakfast "Il Vado" is located in a splendid stone villa that will allow you to have an unforgettable stay. At 700 meters above sea level, it will seem like you are staying in an oasis of peace and tranquility surrounded by untouched nature.

You can combine the pleasure of the mountain with excursions in the Falterona National Park with numerous sports activities such as tennis, trekking, mountain biking, horseback riding, fishing, and mushroom picking! Furthermore, for those who enjoy immersing themselves in culture, Florence, the city of art par excellence, is less than 45 km away. For motor enthusiasts, the Mugello Circuit is just around the corner.

In the garden that surrounds the villa, where you can find a swimming pool, ping-pong, and table football, there are spaces equipped for meditative moments of tranquility or for sunbathing. The villa has a characteristic breakfast room with Tuscan specialties, where you can enjoy breakfast with the intimacy of a fireplace, or directly on the terrace with a view of Mount Falterona during the summer months.

If you are lucky enough to find the Bugli family here during your stay, entertainment with good classical, folk, and Irish music is guaranteed!

Hey from Susanna

Member since August 2005 | 37,531 hits
My name is Susanna and I manage, along with my husband Giuseppe, the B&B "Il Vado". We started this adventure 10 years ago when we decided to renovate my father's old vacation home built in the 60s. After adding much needed heating system, fixing the roof and making some improvements, we thought the best way to complete the work was to open a business that would allow us to finance the renovation and at the same time offer others the opportunity to enjoy this little piece of paradise!

Area countryside
You can combine the joy of the mountains and hiking in the National Park of Mount Falterona with the practice of numerous sports activities such as tennis, trekking, mountain biking, horse riding, fishing, and mushroom picking.

Moreover, for those who would like to immerse themselves in culture, Florence, the city of art par excellence, is less than 50 km away. For motor enthusiasts, the Mugello Circuit and the Muraglione Pass (a true paradise for bikers) in the municipality of San Godenzo are just a stone's throw away from here.

We were two couples and we had a great time. The hosts were very helpful, they dedicated time and attention to us and welcomed us warmly, making us feel completely at ease; we spent a relaxing and pleasant evening in their company, receiving many interesting information about the history of the place and its surroundings. We will definitely come back when we have more time available.

Un bel posticino per chi ama la tranquillità e la natura. Giuseppe e Susanna sono davvero deliziosi e si adoperano affinché tutto sia semplice e gradevole. Immerso in un bosco di castagneti, con annesso ruscello e terrazza per la colazione. Il paesino è a pochi minuti e raggiungibile a piedi.

Esperienza assolutamente da rifare e consigliare per una vacanza all'insegna del relax, grazie alla posizione immersa nella natura, della piscina e dei vari confort messi a disposizione. Gestori accoglienti, disponibili e che ti fanno sentire come a casa. Colazione ottima e abbondante, con prodotti fatti in casa consumati in veranda immersi nel verde.

Il soggiorno è stato piacevole (nonostante il pomeriggio piovoso) e l'accoglienza ottima. Giuseppe ha dato indicazioni preziose sia per le escursioni che per i locali dove mangiare. Grazie a Maya Giulia ha un po' meno paura dei cani. Speriamo di poter tornare presto.

Soggiorno estremamente gradevole e rilassante. Ambiente tranquillo, facilmente raggiungibile e punto di partenza per moltissime passeggiate. Noi siamo stati di primavera, ma anche d'estate, essendo in quota, è l'ideale per concedersi qualche giorno di relax a contatto con la natura. La struttura prevede anche la colazione ed è molto abbondante, con dolci e marmellate fatte in casa. Per gli altri pasti è possibile mangiare, dietro indicazioni del gestore, presso ristoranti o trattorie in zona, sempre molto buone e con ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo. Da provare assolutamente.
