Country House & Spa - Inside Nature with panoramic views, Art Surrounded
Villanovia is a conservative restoration example of a historic Tuscan farmhouse: it is preserved rustic and original but modernly equipped. You can enjoy the swimming pool as well relax at hot tub/Jacuzzi; you have the comfort of the air condition and the Internet wifi connection. Its distinctive special character provides a cozy and warm atmosphere.
The house provides 700sm of internal living accommodation (exclusive rental) and 37 acres of private land. Uniquely located on a hilltop inside the natural park of Berignone, overlooking the Cecina valley, the cities of Volterra and Pomarance, the Metallic Hills and Larderello, with the visible geothermal vapors. Villanovia is off the beaten tracks and worth the 4 Km gravel-road drive, that will take you to our relaxed and far-from-it-all country house (could be bumpy if you have a sportcar - as suggested by a recent guest).
Staying in our property will offer you a 360° view over unspoiled Tuscany, its history and hills. And you and your family will feel at home !
The house sleeps 20+ (extra beds/futon and + 3 cots are available) in large and comfortable rooms or cosy apartments equipped with a private kitchen corner.
The 16th century groundfloor entrance (all in stone) is the most ancient part of the house. Here you have a sofa area with satellite TV and indoor stairs to the upper floor where 6 accommodations are located, as well as a terrace overlooking Volterra.
Perfectly located for total relax vacation, at the same time offers short rides to the cities of Volterra (9Km), Pisa, Siena (about 60Km each), San Gimignano and Florence, as well as the Etruscan Coast beaches (45Km). A large kitchen and an impressive 170sm stone-walls living room with original brick arches complete the property. Panoramic swimming pool is 5x12, fenced for children' safety. Our premium service is the interior stylish room with bubble pool, refreshing and relaxing. It is inspired to the Etruscan thermal springs environment, in rustic murble and stone. EV charge is also available.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 9.5 bathrooms, and a balcony. There's space to spread out with 9 bedrooms and a dining area. A TV comes with satellite channels, and guests can stay connected with free WiFi. The bathroom offers hair dryers and bidets. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and a fireplace. Housekeeping is available on request.
