---

Villa della Torre is an historic estate dating back to the 18th century. Located half-way between Florence and Siena (22 miles each) it is perched on a hilltop amidst a lush green countryside. This location is outstanding: From the garden you can enjoy stunning views of the gentle rolling hills, vineyards, olive trees leading to the extraordinary ancient towers of San Gimignano in the distance.

The apartments have retained a charming ancient character due to the original antique furniture. Tuscan colored walls, terracotta floors, beautiful mirrors with gold-painted baroque frames create a charming atmosphere resonant with history and art.

Rosemary and lavender bushes line the path to the large and extremely elegant pool, which is spectacularly located on a plateau of English lawn and sits high above the valley. Even when swimming in the pool you can savour the enchanting view of one of the most beautiful Chianti valleys. The panoramic view is magnificent, maybe even unsurpassable. It may sound exaggerated but we want to say it: you can feel the surface of the globe here!

Facilities: cooker, small oven, fridge, electric kettle, toaster, American coffee machine, hair dryer, mobile fans for the bedrooms, mini safe in all apartments, air-conditioning in one apartment, shared washing machine and ironing facilities, satellite TV and telephone in the entrance hall of the villa (accessible to all guests), a grand concert piano in the drawing room of the upper floor of the villa, outdoor areas for each apartment, Mediterranean-style swimming pool with Roman steps, classical Tuscan garden with hand-carved stone balusters, breathtaking views, BBQ, parking, private olive groves and vineyards surrounding the villa.

A family-owned Tuscan restaurant with a nice patio and a small alimentari (corner store) are within walking distance. 2 km away you can find a grocery shop, a butcher, a pharmacy, post and a nice breakfast bar; a big supermarket, all necessary shops and several restaurants are in Certaldo, 7 km away.

Villa della Torre is a perfect starting point to explore Tuscany: situated in the heart of Chianti, it is a short drive to Florence and Siena. The villa's location only 7 km from the railway station of Certaldo is a good base to visit Florence and Siena even without a car: You can park your car in Certaldo (free parking behind the railway station) and take the train in both directions. During the week, trains to Florence/Siena and back go regularly (approx. every 1.5 or 2 hours). The train ride takes about 1.5 hours.

Unit for 4+1 people: 940 Eur - 1120 Eur per week, depending on season.

Unit for 2 people: 690 Eur - 1050 Eur per week, depending on season.
