Siena holiday villa

Long ago a watchtower for the local castle, this stunning villa offers breathtaking wrap-around views, best appreciated perhaps as you dine al fresco on the terrace or linger by the infinity pool with a refreshing aperitivo.The grand dining room seats 10, and beyond is a generous sitting room with plentiful seating, a corner fireplace and access to the lawn. Another larger sitting area offers even more comfortable seating, an ancient stone fireplace and more perspectives on the stunning view. Upstairs, the bedrooms are on a similar scale, each with its own bathroom. The well-kept garden with its sweeping lawns and shade trees gives an unprecedented feeling of space and being on top of the world, while the fabulous infinity pool beckons one for a swim with a view. Less than 20 minutes away is famed Siena, offering a step back in time as you wander its winding streets of tall medieval houses. Admire its elaborate cathedral and stroll around its vast fan-shaped piazza.
