Casa Campodonico 6, Terranuova Bracciolini - Arezzo and Cortona

A genuine rural retreat, Casa Campodonico is a large detached villa surrounded by woodland and the owner’s vineyards, offering lots of privacy for large multi-generational families or groups of friends. When it’s time to get out and about, the nearby historic town of Loro Ciuffenna, which straddles a deep ravine, has a charming medieval centre to explore. Be sure to take a stroll over the Roman bridge.

Back at the villa, which is set in vast mature gardens, with two furnished terraces and a covered poolside patio, there is an outdoor space for everyone, young or old. The large private pool will keep children happy, while adults can pull up a sun-lounger and watch on. Inside, large windows let the light flood in, helped by a partially open-plan design, and there are plenty of little corners to kick back in. The décor and furnishing throughout is stylish and downstairs rooms are spacious, also offering access to the two furnished terraces. Two of the upstairs bedrooms have their own small balconies, and others offer sweeping views of the countryside.

Our Thoughts
This is a tranquil retreat, with lots of flexible space for larger groups who wish to holiday together in the Tuscan countryside. Its stylish interiors are so welcoming and the well-equipped kitchen makes preparing communal meals a simpler task. The rural setting, with its huge gardens flowing into woodland, mean there are some wonderful walking opportunities on your doorstep.

Notes
The first floor is divided into two separate areas with no connecting door between them. There are three barns on the property, which the owner uses for storage. The villa has extensive grounds with open access to the surrounding woodland and olive groves. Pets are welcome, but the garden is not fenced.
