A luxury converted convent that sleeps 14, Convento sits on the hills near Carmignano, west of Florence. With a private pool, air-conditioning throughout and all rooms en-suite, this is a luxurious villa in Tuscany.

In the hills west of Florence, a short distance from Vinci, Leonardo's birth place, are the convent of Carmignano and the home of Leonardo's grandparents' .

This will explain the feeling of familiarity one feels on gazing across these hills - the views you are seeing are the same Leonardo himself drew from when painting and sketching.

Today the hills remain largely unchanged and Convento sits among them, an ancient convent restored to a new life. The building is now a luxurious place to stay, with a private pool overlooking the views and with every bedroom an ensuite and the whole building air-conditioned. If you're going to explore Tuscany, do it in style and stay here, with a live-in concierge to organise your tours and make your days slide by.
