The Cervantes estate consists of
three lovely stone houses, the main house now forms three spacious
apartments, another house is divided into two apartments
occasionally used by the owners, and a further house nearby which is
currently not used. The houses are set around their own gardens with
lawns and there are table and chairs for dining al fresco. In a
pretty position enjoying a fine view of the countryside is a lovely
swimming pool (11m x 6m).
Cervantes 2 is a split level apartment in the main house. It has air
conditioning (payable locally) and is very comfortably furnished in
typical Tuscan style with lovely terracotta tiled floors and beamed
ceilings. The ground floor of the apartment consists of an open plan
living room which has a fully equipped kitchen area with dining
table and chairs. A characteristic brick archway leads to a sitting
area with settee (which converts to a double bed on request to
accommodate 2 extra persons), flat screen television and lovely
fireplace. On the same floor is a washroom with w.c, basin and
washing machine. An open staircase leads to the first floor where
there are two comfortable double bedrooms (one of which converts to
a twin on request) and a shower room.
In a pretty position in the grounds surrounding the house is a
lovely swimming pool which enjoys pleasant views of the countryside
and Chiana valley. Within walking distance is a small local village
with grocers shop and there are a selection of restaurants within
easy driving distance.
The location is perfect for visiting the famous region of Southern
Tuscany. Beautiful Cortona with its interesting Etruscan origins is
only ten minutes drive away and a joy to explore, whilst the towns
of Montepulciano, renowned for its excellent wine, and Pienza, for
its pecorino cheese are both close by. In addition, Arezzo, infamous
for its Piero della Francesca frescoes in its cathedral and Siena
with its shell shaped Piazza del Campo square are both less than an
hours’ drive.
The treasures of the region of Umbria with its famous hill towns of
Perugia and Assisi to name but a few are also within easy driving
distance. Lake Trasimeno is also very close and an interesting place
to visit, it has beaches, sailing facilities, and ferry services to
its little islands, one of which is a natural park with lovely walks
and the other ‘Isola Maggiore’ which is famous for the local women
who crochet lace on the streets, an art said to be of Irish origin.
The main motorway link is only 15km away, making also Rome and
Florence easily accessible.
Parking is in the grounds of the estate. |
