Villa Mimi - Nine Bedroom Villa, Sleeps 18

Villa Mimi is a vivacious and elegant villa executed with traditional, decorative charm and ornate, period features nestled in a rustic spot near Siena.

Restored with panache and charisma, set regally on a hilltop, this home is surrounded by olive groves and undulating lawns overlooking the scenic Val di Chiana. Offering a whitewashed, imperial facade and sloping terracotta tiled roofs, this pretty home is a majestic sight, nestled in a tranquil, secluded spot.

This alluring villa accommodates eighteen guests across nine bedrooms, each with their own bathroom - some of them even have their own fireplace and jacuzzi! This stunning home is decoratively lavish and ornate, unapologetically indulgent!

Featuring soft upholstery, antique furnishings and elaborate, baroque touches such as oil paintings and sumptuous fabrics blend to create an immaculately preserved home with historical intrigue as well as modern-day comfort. Charmingly rococo, little touches such as angel wall figurines and antique gilded frames, add to the sophisticated appeal of this home.

The large, yet cosy drawing-room centres around the huge, original fireplace. Dining can be formal, set around the magnificent solid wood table or more informal out on the terrace or in a shaded spot on the lawns.

The bedrooms are graceful abodes of calm and serenity, finished in soft powdery tones and sensual fabrics. Every detail has been conscientiously restored and executed with a gorgeous, ornate touch at Villa Mimi, whilst all the contemporary comforts are in place, such as wi-fi, television and air conditioning.

There are two swimming pools: one indoor heated with whirlpool and sauna, the other one in the garden with bathing area for relaxing time. The beautiful, sedate lawns at Villa Mimi are pristinely manicured, with far reaching rural views, whilst the outdoor pool has an elegant gazebo, dazzling terrace and array of sun loungers.

Villa Mimi offers a true haven of style and tranquillity, providing a faithful slice of restored eighteenth-century glamour and grandeur, as well as a supremely comfortable base for a family or group to discover Tuscany!

The graceful, Renaissance hilltop town of Montepulciano is worth a visit; its famous wine, vino mobile di Montepulciano is sublime when washed down with wild boar pasta.

Cortona is one of the most famous local towns, by the film, Under the Tuscan Sun, and offers a bustling local market, rich historical buildings centred around the main Piazza della Repubblica.

The Tuscan landscape is considered among the best that Italy has to offer, with its splendid hills, elegant architecture, olive trees and vineyards the views at every turn are enchanting and awash with seasonally changing colours.
