Fonticchio di Sopra has been recently refurbished and refurnished to the highest standard. The house has a magnificent position high above the Niccone Valley with extensive and stunning views over the hills and valleys and absolute privacy. The house has been beautifully restored with handmade terracotta floors, oak beams and air-conditioning throughout (For 2018 air-conditioning will be metered and charged separately to encourage sensible usage). Fonticchio sits in its own 22 hectares of grounds with mature trees and olives, shrubs and flower gardens. The infinity pool makes the most of the view and is furnished with luxurious loungers with a pergola to one end. There is a second pergola nearer to the house for outside dining with large table and chairs and again enjoying the stunning views. Free wifi.
Fonticchio has air cooling and heating throughout the house, and also heating for the swimming pool. These are powered as much as possible by climate-friendly solar panels and heat pumps. Please note that use of cooling and heating incurs an additional charge, calculated based on metered use of power, to encourage environmentally sensitive usage. We are aware that some guests wish to be more ‘green’ and not use these services, and so have isolated charges for these from the rental price. Payment for these services is made separate to the rental charge.
