A Serene Stay Among the Treetops

Fiesole Villa is a breathtaking treetop retreat - an idyllic escape for anyone seeking peace, privacy, and a gentle pause from the rush of everyday life. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed by the embrace of surrounding trees, instantly setting a calm and tranquil tone for our stay.

The home itself is modern, spacious, filled with natural light and expansive windows that frame the leafy surroundings. At sunset, golden light streamed into the lounge, transforming the space into something magical. Highlights included sipping wine in the courtyard as the sun dipped below the horizon and indulging in a luxurious soak in the bath with homemade bath salts.

The true standout, however, was the glasshouse - a dreamy setting perfect for a romantic evening of wine, dining, and conversation. By night, it becomes even more enchanting with twinkling fairy lights.

The villa is ideally located in a stunning area with plenty to explore nearby. Just down the road, Silvan Dam Lookout offers sweeping panoramic views across the valley. We also visited the picturesque Alfred Nicholas Gardens - perfect for a leisurely stroll or picnic - and the charming George Tindale Memorial Gardens, with winding paths and a beautiful variety of flowers, plants, and trees.

Fiesole Villa is a serene treetop sanctuary that invites you to slow down and reconnect with nature - whether you’re planning a romantic getaway, a stay with friends, or a memorable special occasion.
