About this property

Enchanting historical Medieval Tower on the Main Street opposite the Cathedral

The Tower of Uguccione, an early 13th century Condottiero, is in the center of Sansepolcro with its entrance on the main street, just 50 meters from the central “Torre di Berta” square.

The Tower is the perfect place to spend an unforgettable holiday in a real medieval tower located in the heart of Sansepolcro.

You enter the apartment through a medieval door.
On the first level are the kitchen/dining room and a bathroom. A large bedroom studio is located on the upper floor with a double bed, a sofa bed for a child (length is 160cm), a cot for a baby and large windows overlooking the roofs, the towers and the church steeples of the town. The bedroom can accommodate 2 adults, 1 child and 1 baby.
The terrace on top of the tower offers a stunning 360-degree view over the Tiber valley. It is also the perfect spot for tanning under the Tuscan sun, and having aperitifs and alfresco dinner.

A free Wi-Fi Internet connection is available.

The house has an air-conditioning and electrical heating system and provides all the necessary amenities for a perfect summer and/or winter stay.

The Tower of Uguccione is the perfect place to spend an unforgettable holiday and, at the same time, to enjoy the elegant city boutiques, shops, bars and restaurants.

The Tower of Uguccione della Faggiola is very close to the central “Torre di Berta” square and is one of the oldest standing structures of Sansepolcro (XIII century). It is an integral part of the harmonious setting that enables you to feel like you’ve returned to a distant past. Reaching the penthouse in the old, hidden tower is the culmination of this unique experience; you can almost hear the sound of the brave knights courting beautiful dames.

The apartment has been completely renovated in 2009. It was refurnished with piece of furniture from the historic period which the building belongs to.

All the details have been selected to allow you to feel like you had come back to an ancient past but, at the same time, to access to all modern comforts and facilities.

The Tower of Uguccione, being located in the main street (50 meters from the central square), allows you to enjoy all the highlights of Sansepolcro without the need to use the car.
At the same time, in case you reach Sansepolcro with your own car, unlimited free parking lots are available at walking distance from the apartment.

The peculiarity of the apartment is, without doubt, the extraordinary and spectacular terrace on the roof of the apartment. It represents a unique and matchless place. From the terrace it is possible to dominate the city center of Sansepolcro and the Tiber valley.

From the terrace it is possible to overlook the beautiful façade of the Cathedral and the other surroundings historical buildings.

The terrace is equipped with comfortable deckchairs to enjoy the warm Tuscan sun in a unique and amazing place.

The terrace is particularly suitable to have an alfresco aperitif and dinner while overlooking the red roofs, the towers and the church steeples of the town, absorbed in the peace and stillness of a sunset.

The apartment can be rented from March to October (inclded).

Wonderful Stay in Historical Apartment!
I write historical fiction and was in Sansepolcro with my wife to continue my research. To stay in a medieval tower was obviously a huge attraction. Andrea was warm and welcoming from my first enquiry and could not have been more helpful throughout. He met us on the day of our arrival and showed us round the superb accommodation, including the roof-top terrace! The tower is jus metres from the main piazza in Sansepolcro and a very short walk from the Cathedral and the Tourist Information, among other locations. The property was beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. If we needed anything, we could contact Andrea. (We didn't need to but he made it clear we could.) Sansepolcro is a very friendly small town in eastern Tuscany and well-placed to visit nearby sites as well as what the town itself offers - some wonderful eating places, a world-famous Piero della Francesca fresco and the Aboca museum of herbal/medicinal remedies. I would hugely recommend this property to anyone wanting a comfortable stay in a great location and experience a bit of history too. We certainly hope to return. this place deserves to be booked out continuously! THANK YOU, ANDREA. Ciao.

Lovely place in a lovely town
We have just returned from a super holiday in this property. The tower was magical and the roof terrace even better. We felt like Lords looking out over the town from the roof. Everything needed was provided and we would love to go back sometime. Sansopolcro is a lovely town and there were plenty of places to visit in the area. Peter & Gaby

A perfect place to discover Sansepolco
An atmospheric and cosy tower on a charming street with great shopping and restaurants. Everything is spotlessly clean, the bed is comfortable and the roof terrace breathtaking! Andrea's communications were perfect, as was his welcome. He gave us lots of information so we made the most of our all too short visit. Hope to visit again.

A superb and unique vacation!
Our vacation in the Old Tower was excellent and very romantic. The location is unique. Being in the heart of the town and, at the same time, in a so peaceful and ancient place is really amazing. The apartment is very well done and clean. Andrea has been very kind with us: many tips and suggestions for restaurants and places to visit were given. The view from the top roof terrace is unbelievable. Sansepolcro is also located in a preferred location to visit surrounding towns such as Anghiari, Arezzo, Cortona, Monterchi, Citerna, Caprese Michelangelo, Perugia, Urbino and Gubbio. We strongly recommend this place and we hope to come back soon!

Superb location
The apartment is beautifully furnished and the views from the roof terrace of the town are gorgeous - the location is perfect, the bread shop is across the way and the lady who sells English newspapers a little way down the street. There are a lot of stairs and the climb would not suit everyone, but as long as you are prepared for that it is not a problem. It is quiet, comfortable and as good as they get.

I live in Sansepolcro and I’m fond of it. I spend most of my free time in the town.

I work with an Italian company involved in aviation security as sales engineer and I have many opportunities to see new places during my business trips.

I always do my best to offer an outstanding service and quality to my guests and I’m very happy and satisfied when I receive congratulations from them at the end of their stay in my property.

Why they chose this property

The apartment was purchased by my parents around 20 years ago.
Then, we took care to renovate it completely in 2009 and make it an unbelievable and extraordinary place to live.
We were able after such long restoration works to see realized what we often thought was only a dream. Now we can offer to the expert and educated travelers an unique and unforgettable experience and we are proud of it.
