About this property

This beautiful 17th Century Villa is set on a tiny Tuscan hill; nestled amongst olive groves & cypresses. It has been featured in various journals and books for its significant beauty and architecture.
Most importantly known as an extremely enchanted, charming paradise where you can escape to unwind in the warm Tuscan sun while you drink in the culture and relaxing charm of the property. Our magical home offers everything desired while away, although you may choose to explore all the possibilities close by. Your days can be spent relaxing by the pool or on the loggia, eating alfresco, playing a variety of Italian loved games and exercising amongst the gorgeous nature.
This authentic 17th century Tuscan Villa is located between Cortona and Monte San Savino. A previous estate of the Cavalieri di Santo Stefano and the Grand Duke of Tuscany, finally passed to the present owner.
The working estate of five hundred hectares specializes in grain, sunflower, maize and tomatoes, as well as grape vines, olive oil and fruit trees, including peach, pear and apple. We also have riding stables if you wish to board your horse.
The private cypress lined lane leads to the villa, passing through the olive and tartufo groves, riding stables and family chapel. The front looks out onto the estate park filled with wild birds, chestnut, oak and pine trees - organic herb and vegetable gardens with antique rose gardens and lemons. The entire rear of the villa is discretely walled with the pool, gazebo, bar hut, barbecue (Weber), limonaia with ping-pong table, change room, washroom and shower.
We will share our favourite trattoria, enoteca or villages in the area. Many unforgettable experiences like the local markets, concerts and sagra's which are held every week in surrounding villages. Live life like we do - relax and enjoy everything this gracious culture has to share - art, music, food, wine & local events.
Historical cities such as Arezzo (15km), Arezzo Equestrian Centre (9km), Monte San Savino (8km), Cortona (22km), Pienza (39km), Siena (52km), Florence (70km) and Assisi (85km) are all located within a one hour drive. We are situated on an important historical road and its close proximity to treasured monumental periods of the Etruscan, Roman, Mediaeval and Renaissance make it an ideal base for anyone who would like to explore and enjoy Tuscany.

A DREAM COME TRUE

We had dreamt of a joint celebration - 60th + 30th in Tuscany. An authentic and magical week with family and friends. Dreams can come true, especially if you choose the charming, authentic and magical villa hosted by owners Marcelene and Roberto. You get a sense of the graceful history from the moment you enter up the long cypress lined driveway. Nothing is too much trouble for the hosts who joined us on the first and last evenings to share the history of the villa and brilliant local tips. Taxis were booked, itineraries suggested, private chef organised and birthday cakes delivered. Our celebration dinner was a real highlight. We ate outside under candlelight between the 17th century chapel and the house. A feast! Other days we visited local towns ( al within easy reach )in the mornings and headed home for lazy afternoons by the pool in the stunning gardens. If you want a beautiful authentic Tuscan week then stay here! You will make memories to last a lifetime. Thank you to Marcelene, Roberto and their amazing friendly staff, Constantine and Tiziana - we had the best week of our trip !

Amazing Historical Villa

In September, our group of six friends had the most magical stay in this historical villa set amongst acres and acres of gardens and olive groves. We so appreciated the history of the property, which is fascinating! We were very fortunate that Marcelene and Roberto, the owners, were there. They could not have been more friendly and welcoming providing us with a beautiful welcome basket, giving us a tour of the villa and even the chapel. If you appreciate history do not hesitate to rent this gorgeous property. Plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms for everyone, comfortable beds, and lots of space to spread out. We spent our days touring surrounding towns and having lunch, then returning to the relaxing pool in the afternoons. As we all love cooking, we cooked dinner every night using the kitchen and provided gas BBQ. There were plenty of dishes and cookware for fabulous meals. The amazing staff at the villa is so helpful and provided us with all of our needs and wishes. Thank you so very much for sharing your magical villa with us Marcelene and Roberto. Hopefully, we will return some day or see you in CA!

Incredible Villa

Fabulous home out of another time period where you feel the warmth and history all around. We had a spectacular time with family. The owner, caretaker and staff are wonderful. We had a delicious private chef dinner out of a storybook. The surrounding towns are all so special as well. Best Tuscany villa with beautiful grounds, unique rooms and grand pool. This is an unforgettable and special place.

Most wonderful experience - an absolute must for families wanting to experience the real Tuscany.

The property itself is exceptional…a huge slice of history and the buildings and furnishings - and even the lemon trees - are hundreds of years old. The hospitality of Marcelene and her staff is unmatched. The eye for detail, thoughtfulness, and care that are invested in the guest experience is extraordinary. We traveled here with my aging parents and 3 kids during the most intense heatwave we’ve ever experienced. The pool was a godsend, always refreshing, beautiful, and very accommodating. Marcelene does think of everything… We cannot recommend this property highly enough. A truly unforgettable experience that we will forever cherish.
