About this villa rental
Experience Tuscany the way the Tuscans do in a private stunningly elegant 17th Century Villa set on a tiny hill, nestled amongst cypresses, truffle & olive groves. This home has been featured in various journals and books for its significant beauty and architecture. Registered in the prestigious, “Dimore Storiche Italiane” ADSI. Experience complete tranquility, where you can escape to unwind in the warm Tuscan sun while you drink in the culture and relaxing charm of the property. Our magical home offers everything desired while away, although you may choose to explore all the possibilities close by. Time can be spent relaxing by the pool or on the loggia, eating alfresco under the vine covered pergola, playing a variety of Italian loved games or exercising amongst the gorgeous nature.
We are located between Cortona and Monte San Savino. The estate was once the property of of the Cavalieri di Santo Stefano and the Grand Duke of Tuscany.
The estate farms five hundred hectares specializes in grain, sunflower, maize and tomatoes, as well as grape vines, olive oil and fruit trees, including peach, pear and apple. We also have riding stables if you wish to board your horse.
The cypress lined lane leads to the villa, passing through the olive and tartufo groves, riding stables and family chapel. The front looks out onto the estate park filled with wild birds, chestnut, oak and pine trees - organic herb and vegetable gardens with antique rose gardens and lemons. The entire rear of the villa is discretely stone walled with the pool, gazebo, bar hut, barbecue, limonaia with ping-pong table, change room & a washroom with a shower. If you desire will share our favourite secret trattoria, enoteca or villages in the area or one of the extraordinary markets, concerts and sagra's which are held every week in surrounding villages. Live life like we do - relax and enjoy everything this gracious culture has to share - art, music, food, wine & local historical events.
Historical cities such as Arezzo (15km), Arezzo Equestrian Centre (9km), Monte San Savino (8km), Cortona (22km), Pienza (39km), Siena (52km), Florence (70km) and Assisi (85km) are all located within a one hour drive.

10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2023
The home rental experience begins before the stay, and our interactions and numerous (I am the detailed trip planner) questions and communications with Marcelene were professional, quick, helpful and extremely accurate in planning our first time trip to Tuscany with 12 family members, all over 18. We knew this was going to be special, and it exceeded our expectations!
From the thoughtful check-in, to access to Tiziana (what a ray of sunshine each morning) to willing and able groundskeeper extraordinaire, Constantino, to the on-going contact with Marcelene, this hostess was determined to make our stay magnificent.
Oh, and did we mention the villa? Out of a storybook, and when our wine guides, locals in the area and master sommeliers, picked us up, they couldn't help but ask for a tour of the villa and back garden, claiming, "Now this is a true Tuscan villa".
Bravo, Marcelene, thank you for welcoming us in to your family home & history, and entrusting us with your masterpiece. We left Villa Fontarronco better than we arrived.
