Perched high on a hill, Villa Cardella is located in the heart of the enchanting Val d'Orcia, a UNESCO World Heritage listed site. The owners have retained the property’s rustic charm with exposed beams and terracotta tiles giving guests a real Tuscan farmhouse experience with all modern comforts.
All six bedrooms are spacious and light-filled with their own private bathroom. The livings areas are warm and inviting, decorated elegantly with high quality pieces. The character of this old farmhouse combined with the minimalist decor is truly stunning.
The swimming pool has breath-taking views and there is a fully-equipped bocce lawn that the kids will love! The pergola is perfect for late night socialising and barbecues.
Just a short drive away from the beautiful medieval towns of Pienza, Montepulciano and Montalcino there is something for everyone staying at Villa Cardella.
