Villa Bucolica I , Tuscany

Villa Bucolica I , Tuscany Sleeps 14 guests, 7 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms DESCRIPTION Set on the edge of Monsummano Terme in the Valdinievole Valley, Villa Bucolica I is a beautifully restored, air- conditioned Tuscan farmhouse with private infinity pool and a spectacular panoramic view over woodland and olive groves. Built in the second half of the 18th Century, Villa Bucolica I, has been lovingly renovated, retaining the true spirit and essence of all things Tuscan. This property sits in 18 acres of private, tranquil grounds alongside its sister villa, IT1711 Villa Bucolica II. Both properties can be booked together for large groups of up to 22, perhaps for a special family occasion, but booked individually, each offers privacy and comfort both inside and out with large gardens enclosed by laurel hedges. The large infinity pool with Jacuzzi is private to Villa Bocolica I only, and sits a short distance away from the villa across the perfectly manicured lawn. The nearest shops, restaurants and tennis are in the village of Monsumanno Terme just 1.5km away where you will also find hot caves – a 200m deep floodlit grotto with 36 degree thermal waters in which you can swim; nature’s own spa!
