Villa Pantanelli is a beautifully designed hilltop villa, with
expansive terraces, patios, a roofed dining area and pergolas
designed to take in the 360°s of glorious surroundings. It comes
with staff to clean and prepare breakfast and there are some
fabulous cooking and shopping services on offer.
Put together your holiday villa wish list and you might just
find all the features here. The bedrooms are air conditioned, but
as a matter of principle not the living area, because the hill top
position genuinely gets a cooling breeze and the airflow through
the ground floor has been carefully considered. There is a
wonderful flow to the beautifully designed ground floor living area
from living space across hallway to kitchen. The design combines
hill top rustic with modern designer living - 4 poster beds are
elegant, but not all traditional looking, there are angle poise
lamps, modern chairs and BTC pendant lights. The ground floor has
two living room areas with huge picture windows and lovely open
fireplaces. The house is efficient and considerate of energy usage,
with solar panels installed for heating the pool to a natural
feeling 28/30°C in summer and 24-26°C in the mid seasons, with
back-up boiler for those wanting a warmer bathing
experience.
The overall effect is modern living in an ancient and beautiful
landscape with easy access to some of the most historic towns of
Tuscany such as Montepulciano, Pienza, Montalcino, San Quirico.

The views: The big skies and the
beautiful, ranging mountainous landscape of the Val d'Orcia.
Nota bene: The pool is open and
unfenced.The pool will be closed between mid-September until
mid-May.
Why we like it: An amazing juxtaposition of
modern villa living with ancient Tuscany creates a chic villa
experience in one of the most popular areas of Tuscany to explore.
It's unusual to find good quality rental properties so close to
Pienza, one of the most beautiful Renaissance towns of Tuscany.
Those that get to know the Val d'Orcia fall in love with it and for
wine lovers it's a 'must explore' area.
