Villa Impruneta can accept a maximum of 14 guests. There are 7 bedrooms – 4 double and 3 singles (but beds can be combined in one of the single) – and 6 bathroom and 1 wc. 6 bedrooms have air conditioning.
The elegant villa, whose construction is so old that some parts date to the 1300, is dominated by a stately tower. The form is somber and dignified both in the design of its layout and in the finish of the facade. But the origin of the property dates even further back. A document dated 1042 reports the sale of a “house with land and vineyards” in this area, indicating without doubt the antiquity of the cultivation of vineyards in the region.
