Di Montegemoli

The area is still among the most unspoiled ones in Tuscany. It offers a very wild and fascinating landscape that embraces a rich flora and fauna including roe-bucks, roe-deer and wild boars.

Villa di Montegemoli is an ancient residence which belongs to the same noble family since the 19th Century and it has been used by the family as summer residence. The property is part of an extensive estate of about 1,200 hectares, including a castle, an ancient hamlet and several farmhouses, all belonging to the same owners and boasting a rich history dating back to the 12th Century. Montegemoli was also the birthplace of Dante Alighieri's mother and there is a garden dedicated to her on the estate.

The location is particularly convenient for sightseeing and in short driving it is possible to reach the famous Tuscan town of Volterra, as well as the beaches or wine destinations such as Bolgheri, famous for the Sassicaia wine. The villa was built on three floors and the ground floor is reserved to the staff, who takes care of the property and provides a full time cooking and maid service. The interiors offer wide rooms furnished in a classic style with pieces of antiques belonging to the family for generations.
