Casolare San Lorenzo near Montespertoli

When the owners of nearby Tenuta Moriano decided to create a new property we were very excited. Casolare San Lorenzo sits high in the hills and enjoys splendid views over the glorious Tuscan landscape. The house is perched above the lovely pool and is a 500m stroll away from the tennis court at Tenuta Moriano. Each apartment has its own private terrace where one can take in the view and enjoy a glass of Chianti. Nearby Montespertoli provides local shopping and a range of local restaurants.

Both apartments have a lovely terrace to enjoy dining alfresco.
