Il Bel Laghetto is a charming rustic villa in the beautiful Tuscan countryside. It sits in a peaceful location surrounded by olive groves, vineyards and wide open fields, the perfect place to relax and enjoy a comfortable holiday with family or friends. The accommodation is divided into two separate apartments, which gives you a good mix of shared time together and private retreat.
A ten-minute drive brings you to the medieval town of Castiglion Fiorentino, where you will find a supermarket, restaurants, bars and a delightful historic centre. The lovely town of Cortona is only fifteen kilometres away. Its ancient city walls date to the fifth century and sights such as the Cathedral of Santa Maria Assunta and the Franciscan Convent of Le Celle make it well worth a visit. Lake Trasimeno is around thirty minutes away by car, as are Arezzo, Siena, Perugia and the UNESCO recognised Val d Orcia, all of which are excellent choices for memorable day trips.
The villa is painted a lovely pale yellow and features dark‑green wooden shutters. A loggia runs along the front and one side of the house and offers multiple comfortable seating areas and a large dining table outside the dining room. The lawned garden with mature trees provides plenty of space for relaxation and play. For children there is a swing and slide set, whilst a table‑tennis table offers entertainment for guests of all ages. The covered outdoor kitchen with pizza oven and grill invites the pleasure of outdoor cooking and Tuscan living. The pool with Roman steps is completely fenced which enables families with small children to enjoy the holiday fully at ease.
Inside you feel the true Tuscan charm with wooden‑beam ceilings, terracotta floors and fireplaces. The walls are painted in soft pastel tones, and exposed natural‑stone sections reflect the home’s historic structure. Both apartments have been lovingly furnished with comfortable furniture and many carefully chosen details to create a warm, inviting atmosphere in which everyone feels welcome from the first moment.
