Sant'Angelo Farmhouse, Soci - Bibbiena - Arezzo and Cortona

This well-appointed property in a less-visited part of north-eastern Tuscany is on a working farm, which produces grains, honey and jams – perfect for relaxed holiday breakfasts. The lushly forested grounds offer stunning views in all directions making Sant’ Angelo a truly relaxing rural retreat. Cleverly divided into two self-contained apartments, each with three bedrooms, rustic Tuscan features such as terracotta tiles and beamed ceilings have been retained.  Sleeping up to 13 in six bedrooms and with eight bathrooms, there’s also a separate annexe with a kitchen. There’s plenty of indoor and outdoor dining spaces for guests to enjoy sociable meals together, including the fully furnished loggia with brick-built barbecue nearby.

The immaculate private gardens are home to your large private swimming pool, where a generously furnished sunbathing area offers guests spectacular rural views. Another paved terrace near the pool is furnished with a table and chairs. While the large wellness centre 20 metres from the villa includes a Jacuzzi, Finnish sauna, vitality pool, heated saltwater pool, chromotherapy shower and relaxation area. The nearby town of Poppi offers restaurants and grocery stores, while the Foreste Casentinesi national park is an easy drive away.

Our Thoughts
From the dreamy rural location among forest and hills to the unlimited facilities on site, this well-restored villa offers multiple benefits for a fantastic family holiday. There’s the enormous separate kitchen annexe with an oven just for pizzas, which can be topped with produce from the farm’s vegetable garden. Then there’s the sense of tranquillity and the outside space, including a tree-lined tennis court, where you can work up an appetite with a rally or two before an indulgent dinner.

Notes
There are three En-suite bathrooms. The wellness center is shared with other residents.  A dressing room is reserved for guests of Sant’ Angelo Farmhouse. On the farm, there is a lake for fishing (need own equipment), tennis courts (need own equipment) at 100 meters from the villa and fully equipped table tennis (equipment supplied). Guests are invited to harvest vegetables from the garden.
