Bagno a Ripoli Villa | Historic design retreat near Florence (sleeps 12 comfortably/up to 15)

7 Bedroom Villa in Bagno a Ripoli, Toscana

Where design, history, and nature meet.
Once a medieval watchtower, Torre di Sopra was reimagined in the 1970s by architect Bruno Sacchi, blending ancient stone with modern form. The result is a rare Tuscan home of light and proportion — elegant yet relaxed, designed for gathering.
With space for up to 15 guests (12 in full comfort), it’s perfect for families or friends seeking inspiration, connection, and peace — just 20 minutes from Florence.
Inside, every room tells a story — 70s furniture, artworks, and timeless views of olive groves. The dining room seats 14, and large outdoor tables invite long dinners beneath the loggia or courtyard stars.
Outdoors, you’ll find a saltwater pool, gardens, BBQ, table tennis, table football, and badminton. Tennis and golf are close by, and the villa’s location makes an ideal base for exploring Tuscany — from Chianti and Siena to Lucca and the sea.
Inside space: 593 m² (6,393 ft²) Outside space: 1,696 m² (18,356 ft²)
Check-in: Saturdays during high season.
Flexible arrivals may be possible at other times — please enquire.
Due to the tower’s historic architecture, we can host up to two children under six (cots provided).

Summary: It’s hard to put into words how wonderful our time was at Torre di Sopra. We were a family of 11, ages 8-75. I would do it again in a heartbeat. Everything was amazing.

Summary: Our family of 11 stayed at the villa for a week and loved our experience. We rented cars which was perfect, the area was very easy to navigate. Jane and Tom were extremely helpful with anything we needed. We enjoyed the property each day and loved exploring the area. We would definitely return!

Summary: Magical. An architectural gem. Easy access to Florence. Perfect for family gatherings of inter generational relatives. The swimming pool and kids play rooms were a strong plus. Our experience of Torre di Sopra far exceeded our expectations.

Summary: This is a beautiful property with extraordinary landscaping in a restored and renovated historic tower home. It is close to Florence & we found taking a cab was easier than navigating the streets of Florence. We also visited nearby Luca, Pisa, Arrezzo & Siena. Torre has inner and outer courtyards that we found comfortable & inviting places to eat & relax after a day of sightseeing. Our group of six was overall very happy with our choice to stay at this property.

Summary: Our family had a wonderful stay at Torre di Sopra. Everything from making reservations to checking out was flawless. Property owners are courteous, supportive, and a pleasure to deal with. Torre di Sopra is wonderful and spacious to fit comfortably a large family of 15 people. I also really appreciated the attention to detail. Everything is very well thought out to meet any possible needs of guests. The location is very convenient, and the bus stop is two minutes away, which made it so easy for our large group to move around. On a good day without traffic, we could reach downtown Florence in ~30 minutes. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend Torre Di Sopra for a family gathering or an event.

Summary: Writing a review of this special place is difficult only because we all wish we didn’t have to leave! Our family group of 10 ranged in ages from 14 to 80 and it was a special trip for my father-in-laws 80th birthday. Communication began months before we arrived and filled us with excitement - the hosts thoughtfully recommended *everything* you might need and more from local shops and restaurants to the best ways to get in and out of Florence (a 20 min drive away). Once we all arrived, everything was wildly above and beyond! The love and passion poured into restoring and enhancing this medieval building shines through - from the structure’s design to the beautiful surrounding gardens. Our 4 teenagers lived by the pool and played rounds of table tennis and we all enjoyed reading/drinking/dining in all of the outdoor spaces. Tom and Jane were SO helpful with all of our questions! Even helping to arrange dinner reservations and recommend a local flower shop for a special bouquet for a 20th anniversary. The most beautiful memories were made and we have them to thank. Torre do Sopra is a gem.

Summary: This house is just perfect. My extended family of 12 stayed, with kids ranging from 5 to teenagers, and it was exceptional. Plenty of space so we weren’t on top of each other, lots of bedrooms for kids and adults, and wonderful places to congregate and play. Fantastically stocked kitchen, multiple tables to hold us all both inside and out, and a simply gorgeous garden with a pool. The whole team was excellent with communication from reservation through to our last morning. We couldn’t have had a better stay, and I am very picky. We will absolutely return, and I was the family hero for booking such a great spot. Thank you!

Summary: We had the best time at Torre di Sopra. Jane and Tom were fantastic hosts and the property is absolutely beautiful. By far the most unique place we have ever stayed! We had seven adults and there was more than enough room for all of us to comfortably stay for a week. The October weather was beautiful, and we were lucky enough to still be able to enjoy the vegetables and herbs from the garden. A few days were even warm enough for a late season dip in the pool. The location is fantastic- just a quick drive into Florence for exploring. We can’t recommend staying here enough! If you do, be sure to book a cooking class at the villa. It was our favorite night of the week!

Summary: We are so grateful to have stayed in such a beautiful place. We were a group of 13 middle-to-late aged couples, family and friends mostly traveling from Canada and USA- we all fit very comfortably. Each room/area has its own bathroom and the numerous lounging areas within the home make it easy to enjoy some alone time while traveling in a group. The courtyards were perfect for family dinners: we hosted a chef, Alessio Sedran, whom we highly recommend. The pool area was absolutely perfect and probably the highlight of the grounds. It was perfectly manicured and secluded, just what we needed after our day trips in Florence, Siena, San Gimignano and the beach. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here, however we were extremely disappointed with the interactions with the host, Jane. We may have gotten off on the wrong foot and I will apologize for the first day we stayed there, as we left 3 lights and a fan on, 1 window open (in a locked position) and the back door was left unlocked as a couple within our group went for a walk in the neighborhood (they thought that was ok since there is a coded gate entrance and they weren’t sure when we would arrive back home). This prompted an agressive phone call from Jane while I was at dinner, and then she lectured me again in our kitchen during breakfast the following morning. I understand the importance of her message however it was the agression in her delivery that made our group feel very uncomfortable throughout our stay. Each member in our group describes their solo interactions with Jane as “unpleasant” or “sour”, which leaves me feeling so disappointed. She would freely enter the home multiple times throughout our stay (yes, she would just walk right in without knocking), even once interrupting our private dinner with the chef in the enclosed courtyard. We spent the rest of our time at the Torre trying to avoid Jane on the property, but this was difficult as she lives there. Would I recommend this to a friend? Yes, but I would warn them of the lack of privacy and sour management. We paid a lot of money and did not enjoy a private, welcoming atmosphere while at Torre di Sopra.
