Rent Apartment Luster Windmill Tuscany
Holiday Home Rental Description
Built as a farm at the end of the 19th century, this rural home has oodles of charm and Tuscan character. We’re swooning over the original terracotta-vaulted ceilings, the exposed cork beams and the huge fireplace, which is the perfect spot to snuggle up with a cup of tea on wintery nights. Every room captures the essence of old-world Tuscany – warm, cosy and pastoral – but there are modern conveniences too, like rainfall showers, a trampoline for kids and a ping-pong table in the garden.
Surrounded by a sea of olive trees and with vistas of the mountains, the garden is utterly enchanting. Start the morning off with an espresso on the outdoor sofa, cool off on sunny afternoons with a swim in the pool, then fire up the stone barbecue and dine under the wisteria-covered pergola on summer evenings.
If you fancy exploring, there are plenty of places to discover. Just down the road is artsy Cortona, an Etruscan town with views across the Chiana Valley. Want to stretch your legs? Lace up your walking shoes and go for a hike through the hilly countryside – there are many scenic outlooks and trails within easy reach. Or really pick up the pace with a visit to Arezzo or Perugia, both about forty-five minutes by car and excellent spots for day trips.
