The area where the Bed & Breakfast "Gli Oleandri" is located is a peaceful hilly region at the edge of Val di Bisenzio, surrounded by greenery yet well-connected to the main urban centers of Tuscany. Popigliano overlooks the village of La Briglia, a small settlement that retains the authenticity of Tuscan hamlets, with essential services such as a pharmacy, grocery store, and post office easily accessible on foot or within a few minutes by car.
The natural environment is one of the region's highlights: the surroundings offer numerous trails winding through forests, olive groves, and scenic views, perfect for walking, cycling, or motorbike rides. The ambiance reflects a more intimate and tranquil side of Tuscany, away from the more chaotic tourist crowds, yet still centrally located in relation to many of its most famous attractions.
In less than half an hour, you can reach Florence and Pistoia, and just over an hour will get you comfortably to Lucca and Pisa, making this area a strategic base for those looking to alternate quiet moments with cultural visits. The nearby city of Prato, only 7 km away, is also worth a visit for its lively historical center, museums, churches, and the textile tradition that still characterizes the city today.
The surrounding hilly landscape offers stunning sunsets and a particularly warm light, making even the simplest activities, such as reading outdoors or enjoying a break in the garden, feel special. It is a place that encourages slowing down, savoring nature, and rediscovering the joy of simplicity and genuine hospitality.
