Description

If you were to draw a picture of your fantasy Tuscan villa it would probably look something like Villa Amiata – beautifully aged terracotta tiles, earthy Tuscan shades on the walls, simple wooden shutters. But inside this traditionally rustic exterior, you’ll find all the mod cons you could ask for, luxury fixtures and fittings and a restful atmosphere that just makes you breathe a bit more slowly.

Perched high on a hilltop in the residential village of Castiglioncello del Trinoro, Amiata commands views of the Val d’Orcia from the balcony and upstairs sitting room, which also has a fabulous audio-visual system, making it a great spot to relax with a film or music while you enjoy the view.

The jewel in the crown of this property however must be the spa bathroom for the master bedroom, which includes a rainfall shower, steam room and whirlpool bath – just the spot for relaxing in the privacy of your own luxury villa. Or for cosy nights in-front of the wood-burning fireplace, select a beloved Italian classic from the library.

A modern and well-equipped kitchen is ideally appointed for you to prepare relaxed meals using the many exciting local ingredients. A partially covered dining table outside is the perfect place to enjoy your Italian feasts, shaded from the heat of the sun in daytime, and subtly illuminated by night. With an outdoor kitchen and BBQ, there’s no reason to venture indoors on balmy summer nights. Foodies might enjoy having a cookery lesson in the villa, during which you can learn how to prepare traditional Tuscan dishes.

Guests of Amiata have access to all the amenities of the boutique hotel nearby which include two fantastic restaurants, outdoor and indoor pools, a spa, cocktail lounge and gym to name just a few. Set in the same village, guests can enjoy complete privacy and unparalleled peace along with the benefits of a luxury hotel.
