Villa Le Cantine
Sarteano, Tuscany - Province of Siena
Description
Le Cantine is luxurious Tuscan villa nestled among olive groves, vineyards and streams in the hills of Sarteano very near the towns of Chianciano, Chiusi and Cetona at an altitude of 540 meters. It is peaceful and private but not isolated, thus a perfectly located accommodation for a comfortable and secluded Italian holiday. Equidistant between Rome and Florence (90 minutes), this self-catering villa is easily accessible as it is 2.2 kms from the Italian autostrada toll booth exit Chianciano-Chiusi. Nearby towns within easy reach are Orvieto, Siena, Perugia, Todi, Spoleto, Assisi, Montepulciano, Pienza (The English Patient), Citta della Pieve, Chiusi, Cetona and Chianciano. Sarteano town and Chiusi train station are only a few minutes away by car.
In June this typical Italian villa smells of fresh jasmine. Summer is ideal. The season is warm but the villa stays cool inside due to the thick walls, while the evenings are fresh due to the altitude. The fall with the harvest of the grapes and the olives is very colorful. Winter can be cold and rainy but flights cost less. The spring is, well, it is the spring, and the field behind this exclusive Tuscan villa is full of wild daffodils which the locals call “trombette” i.e., little trumpets.
Outdoor Space
There are about 1000 mt² of verdant Tuscan landscape at the back of the villa and the fenced-in area is circumferenced by a hedge that guarantees guests’ privacy. In the summer, there is a garden where guests can pick their own fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, melons, eggplants, basil and squash blossoms. A covered slate-stone patio and various other patioed outdoor spaces including a wonderful Jacuzzi ® are available for taking sun or for al fresco dining.
Interiors
The villa is on three levels and is tiled in Italian terracotta: very cool in the summer and cozy in the winter. An internal lighted staircase conveniently leads from the garage to the upper levels. The ground floor has a spacious, open-plan living room with a fireplace, dining room, a large family-style, fully-equipped kitchen.
