UNA Poggio dei Medici is an intimate golf resort of just 70 rooms set amid glorious Tuscan countryside in the Mugello valley, centred on a beautifully restored 16th-century villa. Each room features a generous private terrace or balcony and marble bathroom, and the villa’s restaurant — serving hearty Tuscan food and well-priced local wines — is the natural heart of the property. The combination of a restrained number of guests, an outstanding setting and genuine Italian hospitality makes this a golf holiday in Tuscany of rare quality.
Poggio dei Medici Golf Club, one of Italy’s most respected parkland courses, surrounds the resort and is the primary draw for golfers visiting this part of northern Tuscany. The course sits alongside the famous Mugello motor racing circuit — a quirky and memorable backdrop — and the layout provides a genuine test in scenery that changes character with every season. Indoor and outdoor pools, a fitness centre and spa facilities complete the on-site leisure offer.
Florence, Siena and Pisa are all within an hour’s drive, making this a natural choice for golfers who want to pair a Tuscany golf break with the cultural riches of the region. Scarperia, the medieval village at the foot of the resort, adds further local colour. For a tailor-made Italy golf package that combines serious golf with authentic Tuscan atmosphere, Poggio dei Medici is a very special option.
