Photos and Description of this Montaione holiday villa Self-catering villas sleeping 3 to 5 with pool, air-conditioning and wi-fi

Dating from the 13th century, the private country estate of Fattoria Santo Stefano is set amongst a sweeping landscape of gentle hills and valleys in a little known area of northern Tuscany, yet less than an hour from the historic centres of Florence, Pisa, Lucca and Siena. The estate covers over 1000 acres of rolling countryside, lakes, woodlands, cornfields, olive groves, vineyards - even a wildlife reserve. At its centre is the hamlet of Santo Stefano with the remains of an old castle and church with its Etruscan tombs and cellars which remains in use today. A number of the estate's former farmhouses and agricultural buildings have been carefully restored by local craftsmen to offer a range of quality holiday accommodation offering all the facilities demanded by the 21st century holidaymaker, but with all the charm and delights of a classic Tuscan estate. The Lakes comprises 8 linked villas sleeping 3 to 5 set on a hillside overlooking the main lakes of the estate.

The people of Tuscany can rightly claim to have just about the best of everything - Italy’s greatest collection of art, classical architecture, beautiful countryside, some of finest fresh produce to be found in Italy and many quality wines. It was the home of the Renaissance, some 600 years ago, that had a quite dramatic effect on the remainder of Europe. Visitors are drawn to Tuscany by the architectural splendors of Florence and Siena, the wonderful art of Donatello, Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and many other 14th to 16th century masters. But there is much more to a holiday in Tuscany away from the ‘tourist honey pots’, a wonderful rolling countryside, charming villages and some of Italy’s most impressive hill towns including San Gimignano, Volterra, Cortona and Montepulciano. But wherever you travel in Tuscany you will come across villages with charming piazza’s, historic churches, cafes and enticing food shops set amongst fields of sunflowers, olives and vineyards.
