Castellino

A four bedroom house that sleeps 8, Castellino is a large country house near an ancient fortress that towers over the Niccone valley. The house traces its roots back to the 14th century.

It is quite private with outstanding views looking over the valley to another ruined castle in Tuscany with the Umbrian village of Lisciano Niccone and Mercatale di Cortona in Tuscany.

Both villages are just a few minutes away and have all services needed on holiday including three restaurants.

The house is top quality and sympathetically restored to its old charm. It is very comfortably furnished with all modern fittings including stereo system, dishwasher, washing machine, dryer, TV/ video cassette player and netted windows.

The main door, as was traditional in farmhouses, is from a walled loggia approached by external stairs.
On the ground floor is a spacious living room with French doors opening directly on to a large well furnished patio area with superb views - ideal for al fresco dining. Leading through a wide doorway is the large kitchen and dining room with an original 14th century working fireplace. Very well equipped with plenty of space and a loggia leading to a shady stone tiled courtyard, the organic vegetable patch, an orchard and the well.

On the other side of the living room is a large double bedroom with its own sitting area and bathroom next door with a walk in shower. This bedroom also has french doors opening up to an outdoor sitting area on the patio.Also on the ground floor is a utility room with washer and dryer.

Stairs from living room to a large sitting room with sofas and coffee table etc. On one side are two bedrooms, each with two beds, which share a bathroom (shower). On the other side of the sitting room is a bedroom with double bed and ensuite large bathroom with both shower and tub.

There is a tree house in the well-maintained garden, which takes advantage of the hillside location with slopes and terraces, numerous well-furnished shady sitting areas and a traditional stone built, wood fired BBQ.
