NEWS 2009:
The swimming pool can be covered every night which keeps it much cleaner and much warmer. Our pool temperatures can be up to 5 degrees warmer than a non covered pool!
Torre del Cielo - 'Tower of the Sky' - takes its name from its outstanding position over the valley from which you can enjoy superb panoramic views.
The medieval tower was built in middle of 1600 when it was used as a lookout for approaching enemies. In 1894 the building was expanded to include a stone farmhouse. This work was done by the great-grandfather of the current owner.
Traditional Tuscan style was maintained in the recent restoration of this property. The ceiling and floors are beautifully finished with terracotta tiles, and the celings have exposed wooden beams. The original wooden doors have all been refinished with antique hardware.
MAGNIFICENT NEW SWIMMING POOL (12 x 6 m) in a cypress and olive grove with stunning views south across the valley towards the lush green tuscan hills, from the beautifully landscaped terraces.
The pool area has a big gazebo, table, chairs and barbeques, from which to enjoy your al-fresco meal with stunning views across the valley; the mediaeval town of Monterchi and the lush green Tuscan Hills are a backdrop.
Pool furniture includes also comfortable sunbeds and sun umbrellas.
The vistas are absolutely splendid, looking over small hilltop towns and villages with the Apennine mountain range forming the backdrop in the far distance.
Local Activities: cycling, fishing, golf, horse riding, mountain biking, roller blading, sailing, swimming, tennis court in Monterchi, walking, wind-surfing, professional Clay Pigeon Shooting .
'Torre del Cielo' is a property with a very high standard of accomodation and facilities. It is managed directly by the owners. In case of any problems, the owners are just 20 minutes away. They are there to meet and greet you, show you around the property and help with any needs you have. The difference between a property managed by the owners and a property owned by someone living in another country is huge. Have you ever arrived after a long journey and found the most basic of welcome packs? A half cleaned house? A semi clean pool? At 'Torre del Cielo' the majority of our guests are repeat bookings. The enjoyment of your holiday is our number one priority.
The nearest village is Monterchi (all main services, shops), 2,5 km from the villa; it can also be reached on foot through a beautiful country road.
