Full length curtains provide the room with privacy from the garden. The room is furnished with a double bed, small wardrobe and chest of drawers. En-suite is a bathroom with shower.

Outside the bedroom is a shady terrace facing the forest. There is a second outside area which has the barbeque and table to dine al fresco.

The villa is perfect for a romantic getaway with a shared pool. There is plenty of shade around the cottage keeping it cool in the hotter Tuscan summer months.
Stalla is an immediate neighbour.

WiFi available for an additional fee of 10 Euros per week.

Casa Grazia is a wonderful property ideally positioned to visit San Gimignano, Volterra and Florence. It is a group of 3 individually villas surrounded by a well maintained and completely fenced garden.

The sparkling, shared pool is located in a sunny area of the garden. It is overlooked by one of the villas, while the others are a short distance away on a lower level of the garden.

The gardens include a large sunny, flat area, ideal for ball games, and a pretty shady area with tall trees. Neighbouring Casa Grazie is another property with a private residence.

The large, shared pool is located near one of the three houses.  It is surrounded by a pretty paved deck dotted with sunbeds and umbrellas. Part of the day there is also cooling shade provided by the tall trees to one side of the area.

To one side there are roman steps to enter the pool. While the other side has a very deep end so care needs to be taken with small children.
It is a chlorine cleansed pool and measures 12x6 metres, with a depth of 1.2 to 2 metres. It's open from May to September, weather permitting. Pool towels are supplied.
