8+2 people (4 dbl rooms with air conditioned + 4 bathroom, + 1 extra dbl room)

Particularly beautiful villa, built in early 20th century style, with swimming pool and large park 4 km from the centre of Arezzo and about 10 km from the A1 motorway. It has been constructed in two symmetrical wings, slightly curved to follow the longitudinal slope of the land, that are joined by a central loggia dividing the villa between the guest wing and the family wing. The villa has a beautiful view over the park and the Aretine countryside with olive trees and vineyards and numerous paths around the villa invite one to go for walks in the park that is a mixture of nature and art. The proximity of the town of Arezzo makes it very easy to visit shops, markets and whatever else is necessary for your stay at this Villa, a property for a refined and demanding clientele.
Please note: only the south wing of the villa will be rented. Owners leave in the north wing and they guarantee the total privacy to their guests in using the park and swimming pool.

The Park: the villa is surrounded by 12 acres of land transformed into a park by Pietro Porcinai (1910-1986), the world famous Florentine landscape designer. The park has been published in numerous specialist magazines thanks to its originality and beauty. The theatre, constructed by Porcinai using only trees and plants, must be mentioned. The large garden in front of the villa is an ideal place in which to organise particular events.
