The San Casciano dei Bagni area is famed for its 42 hot water springs. Throughout the ages, Etruscan and Roman nobility, including Augustus, the famous Roman emperor, have gathered here to luxuriate in waters of 40+ degs C. And it’s free of charge.

THE VILLA – sleeps 14, inc 2 young people. Perfect as a retreat or for events !

Staying in this sensational place, you abandon yourself not only to the spoils of wealth but also to the gifts of Nature.

Brand new to the public market, this LUXURY hideaway, originally a haven for celebrities, seeking privacy, sanctuary and solace, is now available to those of you who wish to experience how the “other half” indulge themselves!

This fairy tale Tuscan villa with pool, set in extensive grounds and parkland sleeps 12 adults + 2 children/young people.

Importantly, the owner wants to emphasize that if you are not into serenity and mediation, that if you prefer the boom boomy din of the disco, you can make AS MUCH NOISE AS YOU LIKE. You can hire a band and/or you can sing and dance in the grounds all night long.

This is a fantasy place, where you can release your inhibitions any way you like!

This idyllic hideaway is a perfect venue for wedding feasts, anniversary events, special reunion celebrations and birthday bashes. We, even, host end of school or college semesters and graduations for young people aged 18 +, many might say, a brave move on our part!!
