Situated in the heart of Tuscany between Siena and Florence, Villa Contessa is a large top luxury retreat for vacation rentals, ideal for the celebration of important events such as weddings.
This grand home owned for centuries by an Italian aristocratic family is encircled by spectacular gardens offering breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside.
Originally dating back to 1400, with additional construction undertaken between 1700 and 1800, the entire residence was sympathetically restructured in 1997. Every year the owner carries out a renovation in order to have everything up to date.
The villa has four floors which give a total area of 1500 m2.
All the bedrooms in the property have a private en-suite bathroom with a bathtub and shower (with a small number of exceptions which only have a shower), air conditioning, a phone, a safe, a hairdryer and a television.
The main villa, which looks similar to a castle, has various living rooms all decorated and furnished in elegant and comfortable 19th-century furnishings.
Particularly pleasant are the various furnished terraces, which offer a range of settings in which to enjoy dinner or breakfast.
Guests can enjoy superb and unforgettable dinners either outside or inside the villa.
The staff works every day to clean the villa, carry out maintenance work, take care of the gardens and assist guests. The staff lives onsite, utmost privacy is guaranteed for guests.

"It was beyond expectation. 3 weeks of a magnificience of living, dining, and laughing; surrounded by a manager, owner, chef, and complete staff whose sole purpose was to ensure our complete satisfaction. Through highly troubled with flights being cancelled, rooms being changed, additional people remaining, additional people coming before schedule, their professionalism in handling all these unpredicted calamities was to them a small pebble in a large ocean. They were fanastic and made everyday perfect for all of us. Yes, 75 overly happy people."
