Large independent villa with pool: privacy, absolute quiet and sweeping views.

Our villa Torre Toscana is perched high on a hill in Tuscany, on the border with Umbria.

It sleeps 11-15 people in spacious, comfortable rooms. From its many terraces and the gardens, you can see for miles around in all directions.

There are 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. 2 rooms have a double sofa bed each so the total number of guests can reach 15.
The circular pool is for guests' exclusive use. The villa is located on 1 hectare (2.5 acres) of private property.

Large groups can take advantage of the many shared common spaces together, while enjoying separate sleeping quarters in the evening.

The location is absolutely quiet and you can spend a relaxing holiday immersed in the Tuscan landscape. The pool is circular and it has a diameter of 8 meters.
Very panoramic position and great location for exploring Tuscany and also Umbria.

There is a piano in the living room: only expert musicians can use it and it must be requested at the moment of the reservation. Otherwise it will be locked closed.

A wonderfully isolated villa with character, marvellous views, plenty of space and wildlife!
We were a party of eight looking to relax and explore some of the parts of Tuscany and Umbria that we had not seen for a few years. The villa was an excellent base. We rarely drove for more than an hour and a half to any of the hill-top towns that we had on our list. On days when we didn't set off for a lunch in Pienza, Assisi, Cortona etc, we relaxed in and around the pool, barbecued in the grounds and went for walks along long-forgotten tracks through the surrounding woods. We only needed to use the formal bedrooms to sleep in leaving much room for quiet retreats in the remaining living rooms. It took a couple of days for each of us to work out the best combination of sleeping with shutters and windows open or closed - this was mid-July - but once cracked we all slept peacefully. The biggest thrill of the stay was the regular visits from a family of wild boar. Around ten of them would wander through the gardens chomping away at fallen plums and anything else they could find to eat. The challenge was finding a place to watch them from without frightening them away. Having four pianists in the group meant that the grand piano was quite a bonus (thankfully spared from the risks of less-accomplished hands, sticky fingers and other hazards and so in very good condition). Michelangelo and his local team were most helpful and responsive to any requests. Another challenge for us was deciding where to eat each day - with so many choices. The favourite for lunch was the tower on top floor with its panoramic views. This also tied for the best place for pre-prandials with sitting around the 150-200 year-old mulberry tree in the front garden. And for supper it was either the dining room with windows and shutters wide open or the near end of the long row of "beer keller" tables beside the barbecue. And on clear nights we finished things off by star gazing. There was so little light pollution that we could even make out Saturn's rings with a pair of binoculars. We would thoroughly recommend this villa as a way to get away from it all and explore the region.

Perfect for a Group of friends and a rather rural experience - Awesome views + landscape!
Great house and landscape with everythung you can wish for. Enough rooms, space, terraces, outside area... even a Pizza oven that is tested and approved! With only a few tweeks regarding the Pool size, up to date furniture and kitchen facilities it would become a real diamond. In the current state 4/5 Stars with a mid-range price/quality ratio. Great help, support and overall customer experience with the agency+owner.

Vacanza perfetta per gruppi
Proprietà ideale per chi vuole rilassarsi e divertirsi allo stesso tempo. La posizione isolata è ideale per gruppi numerosi e permette di fare rumore senza disturbare nessuno. Ben attrezzata e soprattutto spazi larghi. Unica pecca, l'acqua del rubinetto non è ottima perché sa un po'di ferro. In generale però super soddisfatti dalla vacanza!!!

Stilvolles Anwesen in ländlicher Umgebung
Das Anwesen entspricht der Beschreibung. Es ist sauber, mit Antiquitäten eingerichtet und groß. Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet. Für die Kommunikation beim Check-In sind Italienisch-Kenntnisse dringend erwünscht. Die Anfahrt insbesondere auf dem letzten Stück empfieht sich nicht für tiefergelegte Fahrzeuge. Für Buchungen gegen Ende September ist die Mitnahme von reichlich warmer Kleidung wichtig, da es keine Heizung gibt bzw. sie nicht angestellt wurde. Die schöne grüne Umgebung und die gute Ausstattung des Hauses waren aber auf jeden Fall etwas Besonderes

Herrlicher Urlaub
Drei Familien (12 Personen) haben drei Wochen lang dieses große, schöne Haus mit dem unglaublich tollen Blick genossen. Wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen. Man hat sehr viel Platz, einen gut gepflegten Pool, einen riesigen Grillbereich, eine absolut empfehlenswerte Osteria am Fuße des Hügels und viele lohnenswerte Ausflugs- und Wanderziele in naher und weiterer Umgebung zur Auswahl. Umbrien ist lange nicht so überlaufen wie die Toskana und bietet landschaftlich und kulturell genug für viele schöne Urlaube. Anderen Urlaubern sei vielleicht vorab gesagt, dass bei Anreise genug Getränke mitgebracht werden sollten, denn das Leitungswasser ist nicht zum Trinken geeignet. Die Betten sind fest bis hart und man schläft mit den italientypischen Laken statt Bettdecken. Die Küche ist ausreichend ausgestattet, auch für 12 Personen. Die Elektrogeräte sind in die Jahre gekommen, funktionieren aber ausreichend. Man sollte sich auch bewusst sein, dass es im Sommer Mücken und Bremsen gibt, was für die Gegend nicht ungewöhnlich ist. Wir empfehlen „Anti-Brumm Forte“, dann hat man seine Ruhe. Auch ein Elektrostick, um juckende Stiche nachträglich zu erhitzen, hat sich bei uns allen als sehr effizient erwiesen. Einmal draufgehalten und fertig. Tina und Fernando, die sich um das Haus kümmern, sprechen nur Italienisch, aber das war dank Google Übersetzer gar kein Problem. Vielen Dank an dieser Stelle auch an die beiden! Michelangelo, der Vermieter war auch im Vorfeld jederzeit gut erreichbar und hilfreich. Die Kommunikation kann auch auf Englisch erfolgen. Fazit: wir kamen erholt und glücklich aus dem Urlaub zurück.

Tolle Lage und schöner Urlaub
Das Haus ist wunderschön, die Vermieter und die Familie, die sich vor Ort kümmert, sind sehr nett. Der Pool wurde top gepflegt. Die Kiesstrasse zum Haus ist für einen normalen Pkw schlecht zu fahren. Besser mit SUV anreisen. Sitzkissen für die Gartenmöbel wären toll gewesen, ein Sonnenschirm für den Balkon auch. Aber das sind Kleinigkeiten. Es waren wunderschöne Tage in diesem traumhaft in der Natur gelegenen Haus!

Wunderschönes großes Haus in sehr ruhiger traumhafter Lage. Ein steingewordener toskanischer Traum
Absoluf super. Aus unserer Sicht übertraf das Haus sogar noch die Erwartungen, die die durch die WEB--Präsentation geweckt werden. Vermieter super nett, aber entgegenkommend und fair

Fredfyldt og spændende feriehus i Toscana
Vi er en dansk familie på 6 voksne og 6 børn (3 generationer) som i juni 2016 tilbragte en uge i Torre Toscana. Vores kommunikation med ejeren Michelangelo var venlig, hurtig og imødekommende på alt, hvad vi spurgte om. Modtagelse og introduktion af huset var god. Billederne af huset og udendørs området gjorde os forventningsfulde, og vi blev ikke skuffede. Et spændende hus med mange og stor rum, hvorfra der flere steder er en fantastisk udsigt. Udendørs arealet er stort og kuperet med flere spise områder, og en dejlig pool. Huset og udendørs området er i flere niveauer, så det kan ikke anbefales til små børn og gangbesværede. Alle vore forventninger blev til fulde opfyldt, og vi kan anbefale huset til alle som ønsker en god ferie oplevelse i Toscana.
