In the Valdichiana valley in Tuscany near Cortona, Montepulciano, and Lake Trasimeno in Umbria is this recently built villa suitable for up to 13 guests with its own private pool, airconditioning and great views over the Tuscan hills.
The villa is in the hamlet of Farneta, where in the last century even fossils of prehistoric elephants were found by the flamboyant local priest that left quite a cultural heritage in this small hamlet. Farneta itself is a small hamlet with one bar.
The pool of 6 by 12 meters has been fenced and offers a unique view over the hills towards Cortona. If you like walking or cycling this is an excellent choice. The valley of the Valdichiana is hilly, but not mountainous.
In the garden near the barbecue is a covered terrace overlooking the Tuscan hills.
