Tuscany-Southeast/Val D'Orcia Villa 18

Treat yourself, friends and family to some quality time in the splendid surroundings of Cosona. With spectacular views of Pienza, this spacious luxury villa comes complete with its own chef and staff.

From meticulously kept gardens to stunning interiors, the villa exudes luxury and serenity. Take your pick of a wonderful variety of spaces for relaxing with a book, sipping a glass of Chianti or simply drinking in the magnificent landscape of the surrounding Tuscan countryside.

Cosona welcomes kids and on its grounds you can find a soccer field, a playground, huge lawn areas and a TV room with games console to keep the little ones entertained. The private swimming pool can be heated (at extra cost) and has an electric cover.

The house dates back to the 18th century, and its stonework has been recently beautifully restored in keeping with traditional local architecture. Inside, imposing arches, beamed ceilings and terracotta tiles enhance the feeling of an authentic Tuscan property. Luxuriously furnished with an elegant mix of antique and modern pieces, the rooms are finished with warm rugs and beautiful paintings. There is an impressive open-plan living/dining room with original fireplace, comfy sofas and a long wooden table that seats up to 18. The state-of-the-art kitchen gives the chef (or indeed any guests wishing to cook) all that is needed to prepare the most delicious dishes for small and large groups. The villa has 9 large, comfortable bedrooms: 7 are in the main house and 2 in the adjacent annex, all with luxury, en-suite bathrooms, large-screen wall-mounted TVs, fireplaces and spacious built-in wardrobes. Each bedroom is unique with stunning views of the valleys beyond. The 11 hectares//27.5 acres of land have been divided into several elegant sitting and dining areas from which you can enjoy the views to Pienza, the famous Mount Amiata and beyond. The spaces are lavishly furnished with lounging sofas, comfortable chairs as well as hammocks from which you can relax, read or take a snooze after the most delicious meals produced by the resident chef. Leaving the avenue lined by magnificent cypress trees interlaced with white roses and olive trees you pass by the working vineyards and arrive at the orchards in front of the villa. Walking underneath the rose-twined pergola, you arrive at the well-designed vegetable garden. The villa is part of a farm that produces extra virgin olive oil of superior quality and an excellent wine. Pienza is just a short drive away, famous for its pecorino cheese; tastings and demonstrations on how it is produced can be organized in local farms.
