Beautiful villa with an amazing view. It's even better in "real life" than on the pictures!! The owner is a super friendly lady and is really helpful whenever you need assistance. We rented some Vespa's to discover the area "Italian Style" which was really nice as well. This place should be kept a secret....

An absolutely wonderful villa with incredible panoramic views of vineyards, fields of sunflowers, mountains, and other villas. We took advantage of a driver who took us to Chianti wineries - a must! We also took advantage of an authentic dinner at the house w/the villa's chef - fabulous!
The only suggestion I would have is… invest in floor fans. It was 102-104 with no AC in the main rooms. The bedrooms did have individual ACs so sleeping was great, but when it was too hot to be outside, it was hotter in the house. Would very much recommend this villa!!!

protection against insects insufficiently, so not possible to hold the place cool enough; swimming-pool not that clean; wifi just at one place outside; bathroom not good: shower in the middle makes the whole place wet -the toilet as well
The villa is located on a spectacular point on top of the hill overlooking the whole valley and the sea. It really was a great vacation. We were with two families in total. The agent Ian was really nice and all responded immediately to comments we had. The only thing that was bothersome is the fact that the electricity fails when you put two things on at the same time. But I guess that's due to the fact that it's an old house.

Good accommodation and friendly owners. The only downside was the pedestrian path to the village which (assuming we found the right one) went via a concrete bridge with no sides over a stream or gulley. Further down once the path joined the road there was a section where we walked on the road with no pavement under the railway bridge to get to the village. All in all not what we would do when it was dark. So we went to Chiusure when we wanted to eat out, two nice local sort of restaurants, with a stupendous view, both to be recommended.

La Torre est un endroit exceptionnel, dans une Toscane comme on peut la rêver. Le bâtiment millénaire, redécoré avec un goût sans faute par des meubles et aménagements d'époque (certains sont séculaires !) nous donne à penser vivre à une époque différente, isolés de la vie moderne, à l'abri de nos tracas quotidiens. Ça sent bon les vacances dès que l'on en pousse la porte, et rien ne vient altérer cette sensation durant le séjour.
La seule petite contrainte d'absence d'accès direct au jardin est vite oubliée dès que l'on se pose devant la vue fabuleuse que cette demeure offre à ses hôtes.
Et puis, il y a Paolo, le propriétaire, aussi gentil que généreux, qui demeure disponible et serviable pour toute chose, avec toujours beaucoup de discrétion.
Bref, il faut venir à la Torre.
Et, doux espoir, y revenir aussi un jour.
Jérôme.
