Description
Perched on a ledge overlooking the Tuscan hills, this beautifully restored building and its accompanying annex and pool house together make for an ideal retreat for a group of family or friends.
The charming annex would suit grandparents or a nanny perfectly, giving them a little space and quiet to themselves, but being just moments away from the main property villa. Expect to enjoy a grand private swimming pool as well as all the facilities of a high-class hoteljust a stroll away at the Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco estate’s ‘borgo’.
Inside Villa Stabbi, many of the original features have been kept to add a sense of history and charm, including rustic wooden ceiling beams and a traditional stone fireplace. Beautiful fabrics in muted colours adorn the living room and bedrooms for a sophisticated yet relaxed feel that is pure Tuscany!
The villla’s charming living areas spill out onto the covered terrace, which allows you to eat at the al fresco dining table and relax in the outdoor armchairs even if there are a few spots of rain in the evening. Why not hire a chef to throw together some pizzas in the outdoor oven – or have a go yourself, using vegetables straight from the estate’s kitchen garden and local wines to wash it all down, of course.
