Elegant luxury villa with private swimming pool situated in Val d`Orcia, near Pienza (Siena). 10 sleeping accommodations, satellite TV, welcome basket.
Description
The villa (10 sleeping accommodations) is immersed in that part of the Tuscan countryside where the famous film "The English Patient" was shot. Surrounded by olive groves for the production of one of the best Italian olive oils, the villa commands the Medieval town walls of Castelmuzio, a small village the Etruscan founded over 2500 years ago, and the Monte Amiata. The villa stands a few kilometres away from Montalcino, Montepulciano and Pienza and is the ideal starting point for trips to the Chianti district, whose hills are covered with vineyards and olive groves, and to important cities of art and culture, such as Siena, Florence and Rome. In the restaurants in the neighbourhood of the villa gourmets can taste the typical Tuscan dishes made of truffle, pore mushrooms and wild boar. Guests can relax bathing in the swimming pool (16x7 m) or sitting in the wide garden provided with outdoor furniture. The villa is provided with all comforts (dishwasher, fridge with freezer, hi-fi system, satellite TV, DVD/CD player). In the laundry there are a washing machine, iron and ironing board.
