la torre suite

La Torre Suite: sleeps 2-3

Always fancied living in a tower? Well this is your chance. Enter through the large wooden doors of the Tobacco Tower and up an exquisite staircase onto the first floor to reach the Torre Suite. Very large and light, airy bedroom with wonderful views of the garden and hills around; king size double bed and an extra single bed making it an ideal apartment for a couple or small family wishing to contain their costs. Large marble-tiled bathroom with bath and shower facilities; kitchen with dining area, perfect for light meals. Continue up the stairs and you can take advantage of another large sitting room on the 3rd floor of the tower with large windows and 360 degree views - at night this is a star gazers paradise. When you get back from your sightseeing you can relax by the pool or in the extensive gardens, and the play areas are wonderful for children to let off steam.

Enjoy relaxing by the pool, strolling in the gardens, walking in the hills or along the river that once worked the mill. Tramp among sunflowers, explore the olive grove, climb the tower for panoramic views or simply sip wine while watching the sun set over the russet hills. The property is quite simply unforgettable; a precious, historic jewel not to be missed.

Guests are welcome to help themselves to fresh produce from the organic vegetable garden, to apples, cherries, apricots and plums from the orchard and there are abundances of sage, thyme and rosemary for flavouring gourmet recipes.

Families with children can enjoy complete safety in the 2 acre garden which is completely secluded with a wide array of entertainments for all ages: swimming, croquet, badminton, trampoline, swings & climbing frame. We also have a few delightful petting animals (dogs, cats, a donkey and a goat) in the extensive farmland behind.

Thermal Spas for the winter months: soak and relax at the hot baths or have a therapeutic massage in Rapolano Terme, Bagno Vignoni or Chianciano Terme just a short distance away

Other local activites: fishing, horse riding, golf, tennis, mountain biking

Explore the Etruscan walled, medieval hill town of Cortona, a hidden gem perched majestically on the sun-drenched slopes of Monte Egidio. As you walk around this ancient and noble town you cannot help but sense the vibrations of more than 2500 centuries of history. Cortona inspired Francis Mayes to write her best-seller ‘Under the Tuscan Sun’. There is a delightful selection of street cafes, restaurants, theatre, markets & shops to enjoy and the town hosts many outdoor concerts, musical & opera events during the year:-\'Giostra del Archidado\' (jousting - May); \'Tuscan Sun Festival\' (June, July, August); Antiques\' Fair (September); the Diocesan and Etruscan museums are world renowned.

Located on the border of both Tuscany and Umbria you can take advantage of being conveniently located to visit the delights of both regions for sightseeing.
