The Villas
Three beautifully restored stone farmhouses crown a stunning hilltop on our 64-acre private estate. Set high above the Niccone Valley with extraordinary privacy and panoramic views, these classic country villas offer an authentic Italian retreat surrounded by protected forest and rolling hillside. Rent individually for intimate getaways or together for groups of 2 to 22+, each villa maintains its rustic charm while providing modern comfort in this breathtaking setting.
Location
Situated on the coveted border between Tuscany and Umbria, Altabella Villas place you at the heart of Central Italy's most treasured landscape. We're perfectly positioned between Florence and Rome, in the Niccone Valley, adjacent to the Reschio Castle within an extended protected agricultural zone. Explore ancient Etruscan hill towns, dine at celebrated restaurants both rustic and refined, and discover authentic agriturismo experiences—all within easy day-trip distance of your hilltop sanctuary.
What our Guests Say
“It was the first either of us had spoken in a while. We had been sitting on the front porch of our restored stone farmhouse, high on a hillside of its own, staring at the panorama spread before us—the fastidiously articulated fields and garden plots of the Niccone Valley below, and beyond them, rank upon rank of forested hills, many topped by castles. It is a panorama that fills the eyes, steals the breath and leaves the viewer sated with visual, visceral pleasure.”
