Photos and Description of the Monterchi vacation villa rental

Superb country home with 5 bedrooms each with bathroom ensuite, large garden, large pool and panoramic views, near a golf club. Torre del Cielo - Tower of the Sky - takes its name from its outstanding position over the valley from which you can enjoy superb panoramic views. The tower dates back to medieval times when it was used as a lookout for approaching enemies. In 1894 the building was expanded to include a stone farmhouse. This work was done by the great-grandfather of the current owner. Traditional Tuscan style was maintained in the recent restoration of this property. The ceiling and floors are beautifully finished with terracotta tiles, and the ceilings have exposed wooden beams. The original wooden doors have all been refinished with antique hardware. Magnificent new swimming pool (11.5 x 5.5 m) in a cypress and olive grove with stunning views south across the valley towards the lush green Tuscan hills, from the beautifully landscaped terraces.

A Very High Standard of Accomodation: 'Torre del Cielo' is a property with a very high standard of accommodation and facilities. It is managed directly by the owners. In case of any problems, the owners are close by to help. They are there to meet and greet you, show you around the property and help with any needs you have. The difference between a property managed by the owners and a property owned by someone living in another country is huge. Have you ever arrived after a long journey and found the most 'basic' of welcome packs? A half cleaned house? A semi clean pool? These are all things you won't find with us!! At Il Mulino the majority of our guests are repeat bookings. The enjoyment of your holiday is our number one priority. Stay with us to see the difference!!

Things to do during your stay..: Music concerts: In July and August in Monterchi. In the gardens of the Madonna del Parto museum, every Wednesday night, Monterchi is host for music concerts. Covering Classical, Jazz and more. The events are free of charge and after the concerts a buffet is served. Fashion Outlets: Within an hour’s drive, you can find Italy’s top fashion labels, as well as designer labels from all over the world. Among the names are Prada, The Mall (an outlet covering many designer names), Gucci. For our guests, we have a special discount card. We also have a special agreement with other local select stores. These include Busatti (fine quality, hand made fabrics eg, linen, silk etc), Ciacci (jewellery, watches, collections, silver etc), Wine Tasting: We have a special agreement with a local “Enoteca”. You can try an assortment of local Tuscan and Umbrian wines, with salamis and cheeses. If you want to try lots of wine then we can take you and collect you afterwards. Discounts on any purchases!

The swimming pool: We have built a magnificent 11.5m x 5.5 m pool surrounded by 700 sq. mtrs of terraces and walkways, flower beds, cypress and olive trees. THE POOL area has a big gazebo, table, chairs and barbecues, from which to enjoy your al-fresco meal with stunning views across the valley; the mediaeval town of Monterchi and the lush green Tuscan Hills are a backdrop. Pool furniture includes also comfortable sunbeds and sun umbrellas. For the kid’s to enjoy themselves, there is a small football area and volleyball court.

Golf: Golf There is a 9 hole course approx 15 minutes from the house, and a serious professional course only 45 minutes away - close to Perugia. Walking The villa is surrounded by stunning countryside, offering beautiful walks around it's land and the adjacent woods. There are simply miles of country paths and tracks. Guided walks are also available for all levels. The routes range from gentle strolls through to challenging climbs, and they all offer fantastic panoramic views and the chance to get back to nature. Walkers have often reported seeing wild boar, deer as well as a whole variety of birds. The woods are also full of porcini mushrooms, chestnuts and truffles (for those that know how to find them). Cycling With the famous hills of Tuscany, you can pick a gentle ride down into the village of Monterchi , or a full blooded Mountain Bike ride through the woods. Guided rides are available as a bike hire. Monterchi hosts many organised rides from fun rides for all the family through to international races
