Villa Catignano
|
|
|
In old history books of Siena, this area is called 'Clatinianum'. This quarter witnessed the many events that forged the destiny of the city, and was laid waste by a band of Spaniards in 1554. Today, among the gently rolling landscape and the beautifully playing light, the Fattoria and Villa di Catignano blend harmoniously with its environment. The Villa - built at the end of XVII° century - offers luxury apartments while the Fattoria offers traditionally decorated apartments. Renowned oil and wine were made here; nowadays the owners welcome their guests personally to apartments masterfully renovated in accordance with the traditional style and architecture. Set within a lovely Italian garden, the Villa and Fattoria are two parts of a single structure. Look out at the 'English wood' and between the olive groves you glimpse a walk of Cypress trees. These lead to the swimming pool, from which you enjoy lovely views of Siena and its surroundings....

Notes on accommodation
The cosy and rustic Fattoria has four independent apartments in their own garden. The seven apartments, on the first floor of the Villa, are larger and most are decorated ornately with paintings and frescoes. Whichever apartment you choose you will be spending your Tuscan holiday in a peaceful and relaxing location. Gazing out onto lemon trees, with vases of geraniums around the Villa, and an Arcadian atmosphere unchanged for centuries - you'll find this a holiday for the spirit and soul.
