Overview
Oozing with rustic charm, Villa Trove sits in the heart of the Italian countryside overlooking the Val di Chiana, in glorious Tuscany. This beautiful two storey, detached property sits in its own grounds and manicured gardens, and is made up of a main house and an independent annexe. With a total of five bedrooms and six bathrooms, Villa Trove can comfortably accommodate up to fourteen guests, fabulous for a large family holiday, or great for a group of friends’ get together. There is a stunning private swimming pool, and long walks in the local valley to keep you fit for your stay. The exteriors are classic white stone, with external staircase features, whilst the interiors have retained the original cool stone floors, traditional wood beamed ceilings, and unique arched walls. The décor is decidedly country, simply furnished with comfortable sofas, handcrafted wood furniture, and whitewashed walls.
In the main house there is a large living space, with a sofa that converts to a bed for two guests, an impressive open hearth fireplace, and a dining set to seat all the family. The cottage style kitchen is fully equipped with all the appliances you will need to cater for your holiday, including an oven and hob, large fridge freezer, dishwasher and microwave, and an informal dining set. The spacious Master Bedroom can be found on this floor, with a double bed, and an ensuite bathroom with a shower. A guest cloakroom with a washing machine completes the ground floor. Take the stairs to the upper floor, which can also be accessed by an external staircase, where there are three simply-appointed large double bedrooms, all with ensuite shower rooms. There is also a studio style living space, with a kitchenette, comfy armchairs, an open fire, and a dining table.
Cross the lawn to the independent annexe, on the ground floor there is a fully equipped kitchen, a living space with a sofa bed for two guests, and a dining table. The upper floor is home to a double bedroom, and a bathroom with a shower. A service room with a washing machine completes the accommodation.
Go out into the gorgeous grounds and gardens, where hidden behind a high hedge is a superb step-entry swimming pool. Feast alfresco at one of the wooden dining sets, with dishes freshly grilled on the barbeque, and raise a glass of local wine to the most memorable holiday.
