Villa Calanchi

Villa Calanchi has six bedrooms and six bathrooms. It is located in the historical residence of Siena . It is ideal for a large family or a group of friends. 

 

OVERVIEW

The entire home has 6 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, living rooms with 3 kitchen and dining room and swimming pool. In the whole house there is air conditioning, heating, screen windows, WIFI internet connection. All our tiles are hand made so they are all different with beautiful colours and design. The heated swimming pool is perfect for swim because it is 4×18 meters. In the garden there is a large table to eat outside using the barbecue for cooking good Tuscan meat. The pool is long and thin shaped like an ornamental lake and great for serious exercise, can be heated on request. The adjoining banks are prettily planted with agapanthus, lavender and white roses but the overall impression is wild and unspoilt in sympathy with the surrounding landscape.
