About this property
Monte Rotondo, Tuscany Villa with large private pool 200 mtrs walk to restaurant
Experience the rare combination of total mountain privacy and the convenience of being able to walk to dinner. Monte Rotondo is a spacious 4-bedroom villa set in the peaceful hamlet of Monteperpoli, offering breathtaking views of the Garfagnana valley.
Monte Rotondo offers a rustic Tuscan experience without the isolation. The standout feature here is the location. Being able to walk five minutes to a high-quality restaurant is a massive win for a rural villa. It means you can enjoy a carafe of local wine with dinner and not worry about navigating winding mountain roads in the dark.
The 12-metre pool is significantly larger than what you’ll find at most rentals in this price bracket, providing plenty of room for a proper swim or for kids to play without being on top of each other. Inside, the kitchen is well-equipped for those who want to make the most of the local markets in Castelnuovo di Garfagnana, which is only 3 km away. All the bedrooms have private en-suite bathrooms and there is a 5th bathroom on the ground floor.
Whether you are dining on the covered patio or taking in the mountain views from the pool the house feels private and settled. It is located in the quiet hamlet of Monteperpoli, giving you a authentic sense of Garfagnana life while staying within easy reach of the shops and cafes in town.
This is a solid, honest choice for a family or a group of friends who want space, scenery, and the convenience of a great meal on their doorstep.
