Still More Of Our Most Beautifully Decorated Villas In Tuscany

In our final post in this series, we have two more of our most beautifully decorated vacation rentals in Tuscany. Both of these properties are historic beauties with interiors plucked right from a period movie.

9. Rocca di Cetona

The noble residence "Rocca di Cetona" is set majestically atop of a hill with commanding views over the Chiana Valley, surrounded by the historic town of Cetona. The property has Etruscan roots as three towers, one of which remains. This tower is incorporated in a later 17th century villa and is surrounded by 2 acres of parkland. It is a true architectural gem with more than two thousand years of history but has been carefully restored to ensure a comfortable stay today.

Book A Villa In Tuscany & Unwind In The Spa Town Of San Casciano

Italy (and Tuscany, in particular) is a destination that has been renowned for spa breaks since ancient times due to the number of thermal springs located throughout the country. Those looking to properly unwind, relax, and soak their worries away, therefore, should book a villa in Tuscany as they will have several thermal spa towns to choose from during their time in the region. Among these, one that we have not mentioned at length yet is the pretty town of San Casciano dei Bagni.

Nestled in the famously beautiful and iconic Tuscan scenery of rolling green hills and golden valleys that distinguishes the Val d’Orcia as one of the most idyllic parts of the world, the town of San Casciano dei Bagni has famed waters. These thermal waters have been used for thousands of years for their therapeutic properties and attracted aristocrats from all over Europe in search of cures and relief for all sorts of ailments for centuries. This flow of wealthy visitors into San Casciano dei Bagni over time has also left a visual mark on the pretty town, endowing some buildings with elaborately decorative and especially lovely exteriors, further adding to her charms!

Villa Spotlight: The Sweet Villa Danilo For A Group In The Orcia Valley

Nestled right in the rich green surroundings of the lush Orcia Valley, a short distance from the little town of San Casciano dei Bagni, famous for its natural hot springs, Villa Danilo is the most adorable and picture-perfect villa in Tuscany. It is located on a little road of the kind that is so common in the area, winding through a beautiful patchwork of fields, rolling hills, and valleys, framed by proud cypresses and other trees. The house itself boasts views over the beyond picturesque scenery, a charming terracotta roof, doors all over opening out into the lush gardens, a leafy porch with an elaborate area for lounging and dining al fresco, and a beautiful private pool with surrounding loungers and parasols. Yet, despite its sweet and dollhouse-like appearance, Villa Danilo is also a spacious property with seven bedrooms (each with its own bathroom) and all of the amenities and mod-cons that one might require.

Visit San Casciano Dei Bagni And The Ciaffagnone Festival

San Casciano dei Bagni is a town in the Tuscan countryside located in the province of Siena. It is over one hundred kilometres from Florence, and is best known for its hot springs. The municipality dates back to between the 3rd and 4th centuries and is located in the southernmost part of Sienna. The Romans developed the hot springs after they were originally discovered by the Etruscans. The springs were used by Tuscan aristocrats during the Middle Ages and the Renaissance era. Today, the town is the location of a health spa center near many holiday villas, where people have been coming since the 14th century to take advantage of the therapeutic waters.

New Collection Of Ancient Roman Sculptures Found In San Casciano

Italy is a place where history is very much still alive – in her preserved towns, her exceptionally rich museums, her active traditions, and much more besides. And, despite the wealth of sites, architectural gems, museums and galleries stuffed with works of art and archaeological finds, that one would need lifetimes upon lifetimes to even put a dent in, discoveries continue to happen and new finds continue to be uncovered. The latest discovery, in fact, was made only this week in a thermal bath in the small town of San Casciano, in the province of Siena, where some 24 bronze statues dating back to the ancient Romans were uncovered! Those with any sort of interest in art and history, really would be advised to plan a vacation in Tuscany – you never know what you might find on your trip!

Okay, so you’re pretty unlikely to find a hoard of ancient, precious sculptures yourself while on holiday in Tuscany but those who book one of our Tuscany villas can certainly see such incredible pieces with relative ease throughout their trip as there are endless museums and attractions to choose from. From famous spots like the Uffizi Museum to local galleries and institutions that you have likely never heard of in tiny towns all over the region boasting collections with famous names from the history of art among their holdings, you’ll never be far from your next chance to see the most extraordinary objects from throughout history.
