Giardino del Belvedere

Beskrivelse af Ejendommen

Private Villa with Pool in a Botanic Garden.
Surrounded by centuries-old oaks, olive groves and meadows, the ancient stone farmhouse lies nestled in the Chianti hills within a 30-kms radius of Florence, Siena and Arezzo in a vast natural garden.
The villa was built more than 300 years ago; the restoration has kept the spirit of the house, respecting the original architecture with use of hand-made special materials following bio-architecture parameters.
The villa is in the middle of a 13-hectare (32 acres) private botanical garden (Giardino del Belvedere) with olive trees, meadows, forest of ancient oaks trees, an amphitheatre and a private salt water swimming pool ( 19x35 feet open from 04 May to 02 November).
Our private villa hosts a single group of guests at a time. Being the only residents, the quality and privacy of their stay is guaranteed.
The villa, the swimming pool and the garden is always completely private and can host from 4 to 16 persons in rooms with en-suite bathroom.
La Selva Giardino del Belvedere is the perfect place to discover Tuscany for a family reunion, a gathering of friend, a wedding, a meeting.
The rooms are spacious, furnished with antiques, yet offering every modern convenience.
Giardino del Belvedere is a house for all seasons. The old stone walls keep it cool in the summer sun, while great open fireplaces offer warmth and comfort during cooler months.
