This privileged location combines the advantages of utmost privacy and tranquillity with the nearby amenities of a town.

Lawns, patios and the pool area provide many opportunities for outdoor relaxation within the sheltered grounds. This property is a modern structure which incorporates many traditional Tuscan design features, such as whitewashed walls, tiled floors, wood-beamed ceilings and wood-burning fireplaces. Its furnishings remain in keeping with this authentic style and include large, dark wood dining tables, sideboards and glass-fronted dressers and cupboards. The bathrooms, all en suite, and kitchens are, however, fully equipped with the most up-to-date facilities, ensuring maximum comfort. As the house is built on a variety of levels, secluded lawns, verandas and paved terraces are located at different elevations, affording ample opportunity for sunbathing or al fresco dining. A separate little stone structure on the back lawn houses the barbeque and wood-burning pizza oven, perfect for just such occasions. Well-kept lawns, colourfully planted flowerbeds and shady olive trees surround the house, while taller conifers give shelter and protection at the front, towards the approach road. The entire grounds are securely fenced in.More

Fantastic - For extended family or large groups
We had a fantastic stay in June 2015 with 6 adults. The villa is well situated being just outside Arezzo un in a raised position in nearby village Antria. The views are spectacular and Arezzo cathedral can be seen from the villa and looks beautiful at night. The villa itself is very nice indeed with lots of flexibility each room has a large ensuite and there are several lounges and several kitchens too when you want to do something different. The outside is well landscaped and a pleasant place to be with a choice of places to sit either on the terraces or under cover. The outside cooking facilities are excellent with a great authentic wood fired pizza oven which I recommend you watch a you tube video and then get stuck in because its great fun and actually very easy. The pool area is large and provides lots of extra sun bathing opportunities... The pool is 15 meters from the house slightly down the hillside so it is perfect to create areas and natural zones so people can be having fun (making noise) in one place while allowing others to quietly read elsewhere without any problem. The rooms are easy to keep cool even in the heat and the beds are generally good and there was everything you would need. There was wifi which being that it is in a nice secluded area is impressive and its fast and reliable most of the time. We had an issue once and the manager sent a IT engineer to fix it the same day.! Simoneta who we dealt with was there to great us and show us around, she was always very fast to answer any questions and offered the very best service one could imagine. The pool is cleaned daily and the outside areas the grass and other gardening and cleaning inside the villa is weekly. If I had a suggestion (a complain is too strong given how good everything was) an oven inside would be helpful and some more kitchen utensils and bits. Like I said a pretty small thing.
