There are also a fully equipped kitchen with wood burning stove and access to a large patio area (perfect for breakfasts) and s service bathroom. On first floor there are 3 individually styled large double bedrooms with comfy king size beds, all ensuite and air conditioned. One of the bathrooms has a walk in showers, the other have bathtub with shower over and a Jacuzzi tub! There is then a lovely retreat/reading room. Every rooms enjoys stunning views over the Tuscan countryside and each has been carefully furnished with original Biedermier pieces, large mirrors and handmade linen curtains.
