A meticulously restored 16th century manor in the foothills of Castiglion Fiorentino is the perfect base for exploring Tuscany – and Umbria – with friends and family.  Your four-bedroom villa provides ready access to Arezzo, Cortona, Florence, Siena, Perugia, Assisi, Lake Trasimeno and so much more.  A wealth of architectural, cultural and artistic treasures of the Etruscans and Romans, the Middle Ages and Renaissance lie within a two-hour drive.

The quintessential Tuscan experience revolves around culinary delights. Shop in the open-air markets; sip wine at an enoteca; indulge in espresso and pastry or aperitifs at a sidewalk café. It’s hard to eat badly in Tuscany! After a special cooking lesson at your villa with a private chef, enjoy the fruits of your labors with an alfresco dinner, including wine. The next day, your party will be picked up for wine-and-cheese tours/tastings at a local winery and a family-run farm.  Afterward, take a dip in your private pool and enjoy the stunning views over the rolling hills.
