Villa Belvedere, Montevarchi - Arezzo and Cortona

This spacious four-bedroom property is set on the edge of a stone village, high on a hill between Montevarchi and Gaiole in Chianti. It has plenty to offer up to seven guests, no matter the season - from sitting back and marvelling at the wonderful views from your private pool to warming yourself beside an open fire on chillier nights. There's ample room for all here. The spacious lounge, decorated in warm reds, has a fireplace and is furnished with comfy double sofas and there's even a separate seating area in the adjoining hall for those who want a bit of me time. True to its Tuscan roots, the villa features exposed stone walls, wood beams and terracotta tiles throughout. You'll enjoy whipping up communal meals in the well-equipped kitchen and coming together to eat them later in the adjoining dining room. The four stylish bedrooms are all individually decorate and full of natural light.

Guests who love to be outdoors will enjoy exploring the wonderful garden, with its pretty terracotta-paved terrace, which is shaded by a pergola and edged with leafy plants. But the jewel in the garden's crown is surely the 10-metre pool, which offers far-reaching views of the Tuscan countryside and has a lovely private position making it the ideal spot to relax in, glass of the Chianti in hand. Enjoy!

Our Thoughts
The wonderful outdoor space and soul-soothing panoramas set this property apart from the rest. You'll find it hard to tear yourself away from the pool area, where you will find your eyes wander to the vineyard-cloaked horizon while you swim or relax on a sunbed with a glass of something refreshing. The town of Montevarchi, with its shops and restaurants, nearby while Siena and Florence are merely an hour's drive away.
