Villa la Corte started as a monastery in the 12th century; until recently long abandoned it has undergone excellent restoration work lasting 4 years, transforming it into a high-quality villa, with modern facilities and services: swimming-pool (15x7 m.), tennis court, private gymnasium with sauna, football field, boules and billiard table. The villa lies in a large estate of over 30 hectacres, and is reached via a private road inside the estate which is partly untarred and partly paved with stones from the riverbed. It lies about 2 kms from Ville di Corsano, a small village with two restaurants, a bar and a post office. Siena is about 15 kms drive away along a scenic road. The whole of Chianti is a leisuredly visit - San Gimignano and Monteriggioni are easy to reach, and further south, the Val d`Orcia, Montalcino, Montepulciano, Pienza all make interesting cultural and gastronomic trips. Firenze is less than an hour and a half by car. The large garden surrounding the villa is beautifully looked after and in the summer months there is an explosion of colourful flowers with the centuries-old trees towering above. For the furnishings they have installed very high-quality antiques, and there is also the following equipment: an external kitchen with fridge close to the swimming-pool, central heating, telephone, fax, internet connection, private laundry. The staff can prepare meals for you, offering menus of excellent tuscan cuisine. The scenery around the villa is wonderful, and the beauty of the well-known `Crete Senesi` changes colour according to the season. Air-conditioning in the bedrooms (all with Hastens beds).
