You reach La Rogaia through an unpaved road that winds through the woods, well-maintained and only a little steep, and once you are there you will be rewarded with true peace and tranquillity. The villa is furnished with taste and care by the owners who also produce an excellent organic extra virgin olive oil.
We recommend that you don't miss a visit to the nearby city of Arezzo, only 10 km away, to the works of art by Piero della Francesca, Giorgio Vasari, Cimabue, a walk along the narrow streets of the historic centre and a glass of wine enjoyed in the wonderful medieval setting of Piazza Grande.
The real icing on the cake here is, however, the breathtaking view from the very panoramic private swimming pool (size 5x10 m, depth 0.90-1.95 m, completely fenced in and equipped with sun shower - open from 1st June to 30 August).

Casale Bella Vita is a splendid classy residence located on a pleasant hill on the border between Tuscany and Umbria. Located in an area of the countryside, in the small hamlet of Moiano, halfway between Città della Pieve and Chiusi, it will lull you and make you feel far from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The house, built in stone and brick, is the result of restoration completed in 2021, during which particular attention was paid to the construction of the interior; the skilful choice of colours and furnishing accessories, in harmony with the tones of the walls and upholstery, define a noteworthy “harmonious whole”, declined in the colours of nature that can be seen from the windows. In the bedrooms you breathe an intimate and romantic atmosphere, with wrought iron, wood and four-poster beds, while on the first floor there is a cosy sitting room and a large fully-equipped kitchen with fireplace and terrace. Outside, the house is surrounded by many living areas distributed throughout the wonderful garden with plush lawn: the large pergola, the gym area, the delightful wooden veranda with brick barbecue and the various living areas where guests can relax together with a good glass of wine. But the real highlight of the property is the beautiful infinity pool, purified with salt, and the wonderful hot tub for 6 people that can be heated and used at any time of the day or night. The house stands out for its large spaces, both internal and external, and is particularly suitable for groups of friends or families who want to spend relaxing days together, thanks to the welcoming lounge and the set-up outdoor areas, yet being, at the same time, completely independent, thanks to the arrangement of the bedrooms in separate but adjacent units. Casale Bella Vita offers a unique opportunity for organising events, ceremonies and parties in its large outdoor areas. The villa is located 7 km from Chiusi in Tuscany and 7 km from Città della Pieve in Umbria with churches and museums, rich in history and art as well as being animated by various cultural events. A short distance from the Autostrada del Sole (with the Chiusi-Chianciano Terme exit), the house is located in a privileged geographical position that allows you to travel easily to visit the beautiful towns of the Val di Chiana such as Montepulciano, Cetona or Chianciano Terme, those of the nearby Val d'Orcia, such as Montalcino, Pienza, San Quirico, Castiglione or Bagno Vignoni and those of Umbria. N.B The owners, very discreet and courteous, occupy a part of the villa: they have their own separate and independant entrance and do not share any of the outdoor areas of the house, garden or swimming pool with the guests.

Description
Property Summary
Nestled in the rolling hills of Tuscany, Bossoncina is a beautifully restored 19th-century stone farmhouse that has been transformed into an elegant villa, offering an exceptional vacation rental experience just under 2 kilometers from the celebrated Renaissance town of Montepulciano, in Italy. The property spans approximately 200 square meters across 2 levels and stands as a testament to the harmonious union of historic craftsmanship and contemporary design, where authentic local materials and fine antique furnishings meet modern, functional details to create an intimate and enveloping atmosphere. Guests are welcomed into a setting that combines the charm of the Tuscan countryside with a full suite of thoughtful amenities, including a generous yard immersed in olive groves, fruit trees, and Mediterranean shrubs, as well as complimentary Wi-Fi connectivity and a dedicated parking area located immediately beyond the entrance gate to the property.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of Bossoncina are a true celebration of the Tuscan landscape. An inviting garden with colorful seasonal blooms extends across the surrounding land, which forms part of a working farm where olive trees line the perimeter and a young collection of fruit trees and Mediterranean shrubs dot the expanses of lawn. In the paved area in front of the kitchen's French window, a pergola shelters a large stone table and a barbecue, creating an ideal setting for outdoor dining and leisurely afternoons in the reserved countryside. The large, newly built swimming pool is positioned in a section of the garden that overlooks the breathtaking panorama of the Chiana valley, just 15 meters from the house and enclosed by a fence for safety. The pool measures 6x12 meters, with a depth ranging from 1.10 to 1.50 meters, and features travertine edging, stoneware lining, a travertine bottom, and large corner steps leading into the water. Both internal and external lighting ensure the pool can be enjoyed at any hour, while a solar shower and chlorine purification system are also in place. The surrounding sunbathing area is finished in terracotta, and a vast lawn stretches toward the garden, complete with a gazebo, sunbeds, and a shade sail covering the conversation area. The pool is non-heated and is open from the last Saturday in April until the first Saturday in October. Please note that photographs of the property are typically taken in spring, so the colors and blooms of the gardens, lawns, and surrounding grounds may vary at the time of your arrival.
