Superb villa positioned between Arezzo and Siena this spacious villa, sleeping up to 16 people. The house has been superbly renovated and each bedroom has its own bathroom. The garden and pool are wonderful and the position of the house is perfect for both relaxation and exploring this fascinating part of Tuscany.

For 2010 the owners have bought the second house on the estate and now complete privacy is assured. The houses are only a few meters apart and thus ideal for a large group.

Main Villa

On the ground floor there is a spacious living room with comfortable seating. The kitchen, which leads onto the covered patio, is well equipped with gas hobs, oven, dishwasher and fridge freezer. Most meals will be taken on the patio which is fully equipped with tables and chairs and overlooks the pool but in the cooler months there is a charming dining room with the original stone walls still on show. There is a laundry room with washing machine and a bathroom. After dinner one can indulge in a game of snooker/billiards on the full size table. The final room on the ground floor is a reading room.

Stone steps lead up to the first floor where the large sitting room boasts wonderful views over the pool and to Civitella. Four of the bedrooms lead off this room. Each has a bathroom (with shower) ensuite. There is also a further bathroom with a bath on the first floor.

On the top floor there is the fifth bedroom which is large and also has an ensuite bathroom (shower). This bathroom has a sloping roof and hence we recommend that the taller members of the group take one of the bedrooms on the first floor. Four of the bedrooms have double beds and one is twin/double.

Second Villa

This smaller house is in the same style as the main villa. Entry is into the well equipped kitchen – dishwasher, oven, hobs and washing machine. The kitchen leads into the spacious living room and conservatory which has access to the lovely veranda in front of the house. Finally on the ground floor there is a double bedroom with en suite bathroom with shower.

Internal stairs lead to the two bedrooms, one of which has an en suite bathroom with shower. The main bedroom has lovely views over the surrounding countryside.

The pool area is fantastic and there are ample sun loungers. Parents wanting to sip a glass of wine and read a book in the shade can easily keep an eye on their children in the pool as the patio is but 10m away.

Villa San Martino is positioned along a ‘white road’ and is just 3km away from the village of Civitella Val di Chiana which has stunning views across the valley and a couple of excellent restaurants. The owners of Villa San Martino are a charming couple and the husband is a musician – next to the villa he has built a small recording studio. It is fully soundproofed and he is very happy to let guests see him working and join in. The husband looks after the garden and pool, previous guests have enjoyed having contact with the family.

We had an absolutely excellent time - the villa completely surpassed expectations - the size, the view, the pool, etc, etc. We loved the loggia and the billiards room. Fabrizzio was helpful and friendly but not intrusive and Ian's shopping, maps and advice were spot on. We will definitely come back to you again and will recommend your company without hesitation.
