The common toilet/bathroom is provided with a shower and double Carrara marble wash-basin.

The well-kept Garden surrounding the Villa is rich in fresh shady places provided by tall, slender pine-trees. Strolling among the ancient olives, you will enjoy the natural fragrance of lavender, sage, rosemary and mint bushes.
The wide panoramic Terrace in Tuscan cotto, overlooking the green tract of the surrounding woods, will be the ideal setting for your candle-light summer dinners.
The Lawn surrounding the whole Villa is the perfect place to relax while having a glass of good wine and enjoying the view of the surrounding smooth hills, vineyards and woods.
