Villa La Rassinata is located in the locality of the same name, Santa Maria alla Rassinata, at 730 m above sea level. This splendid residence, dating back to the mid-sixteenth century, has been expertly restored and reflects the charm of modern and old exquisitely blended. It stands on a knoll among the Arezzo hills with a view over a green and relaxing panorama. On each floor the common areas are furnished with objects of modern taste, carefully combined with antique pieces; the living room exhibits a retro-style charm, while the bedrooms travel back through time: the beds are high because in the past ash would be put underneath to keep them warm. All six bedrooms have air conditioning. The outdoor spaces have been realised with low stone walls and the gardens are well-maintained and adorned with hydrangeas, antique roses and aromatic plants. Above the panoramic swimming pool is a terrace with a ping pong table and a small wooden pool house with a minibar where you can leave drinks and snacks to keep cool. This property is the perfect destination for a large family wishing to spend a relaxing stay in a regenerating setting immersed in tranquility. It is the ideal place for long walks and bike rides on the marked paths to admire the splendid surrounding hilly landscapes.

The caretakers live in the annex adjacent to the villa, with completely independent access, and will not interfere with the use of the park and swimming pool but will remain at the complete disposal of guests.

The outdoor dining area with gas barbecue is located at the back of the villa, shaded by tall trees and by a pergola with iron structure. Completing the outdoors are two tables and a rocking chair where guests can relax in the cool.
