Borgo dell'Arte
Surrounded by the unique Tuscany nature in the area of Florence, Arezzo, Siena, Cortona and nearby Umbria, this hamlet was born as a pilgrimage retreat in the XV century. The estate has been restored and comprises a central common area with the rooms spread in different homes around the main square. This is a place where everyone has their privacy, but all social activities are shared. This is where endless walks are available for those who love nature walks. Elements of classic Italian residential architecture are combined with contemporary touches: LED lights set in antique, original lamp holders, the steel kitchens in industrial style, the design of the bathrooms and the library. This is a contemporary retreat with an elegant aura and a welcoming vibe, with a powerful eco-friendly accent. The estate is lightly fenced to protect it from the local fauna surrounding the area. The location of this property makes it a particular fit for guests who love their privacy.
