Description
Nestled within many hectares of tree-dotted parkland and commanding an impressive position overlooking the Tiber valley and Tuscan hills is historic Dimora Cardamini. This large palazzo dates back to the late 18th century and has since become a comfortable and characterful villa for unforgettable holidays with loved ones.
As well as having an incredible amount of interior space, Dimora Cardamini offers sprawling gardens on several levels. Relax in the pool, at a table with drinks or meals, or under the shade of a leafy tree. Wherever you choose to spend time, stunning views of the lush, rolling countryside that surrounds you are there to be soaked up.
All of the rooms beautifully showcase a mix of the modern and the historic. This blend makes the living and dining spaces wonderfully atmospheric places to unwind and socialise. Sure to impress during mealtimes is the grand fireplace. Wood beams, terracotta tiles and stone all work together to create a welcoming sense of warmth and to perfectly reflect the villa's rural setting.
Interior furnishings have been carefully selected to reflect the grandeur and original features of the palazzo. This is especially evident in the six ensuite bedrooms, with glorious frescoes being complemented by elegant pieces of antique wood furniture. One bedroom also has its own private balcony with seating for enjoying romantic drinks as evening begins to fall. Bathrooms with marble showers add a touch of sumptuous luxury.
Dimora Cardamini is set within gardens over several levels. There are lush lawns to enjoy, with al fresco dining on the patio giving you clear views over the gardens and beyond. The surrounding parkland is studded with century-old oaks, cypresses and pine trees for a cool, leafy atmosphere in which to enjoy leisurely strolls. Cool down after lazy afternoons in the sun with a dip in the pool, or simply chill out in the jacuzzi.
There's free fishing on offer at the private lake just 500m from the villa. Mountain bikes give you the chance to explore the wider area on fun trips with the family.
Less than a 10-minute drive from the villa is the lovely village of Monterchi. It has a range of restaurants, shops and interesting spots to visit. Be sure to make the most of tasting opportunities at its famous winery!
A 30-minute drive will bring you to historic cities such as Arezzo and Città di Castello. A natural paradise is just over an hour's drive away at Lake Trasimeno Regional Park, with its glorious lake and chances to spot many birds and other wildlife. /n Security deposit /n €500 paid in cash to the owner upon arrival and refunded upon departure, subject to full inspection. /n Arrival time /n 4.00 p.m. - 7.00 p.m. Check-in outside this time may be subject to an extra cost.
