Toscana in campagna
|
History
The palpable joy of stepping in the light is in itself a golden, sunny, sensual, unique experience when you are spending time in southern Tuscany. This extraordinary beautiful stretch of Italy sits between Rome and Florence with open breathtaking views to the Mount Amiata, the unchanged profiles of the hills that we admire in the old master Tuscan paintings. San Casciano dei Bagni is an unspoilt medieval village, beautiful, and rather well kept secret south of Siena. It lies less than one hour drive from Perugia airport and 1 ½ from Rome and Florence airports. Helipads are available nearby. Montepulciano, Firenze, Siena, Arezzo and Assisi are ½ an hour away.
The old Roman spa - from which the village derives its name - has just been refurbished offering eight natural hot water pools, beauty and health treatments. There are superb qualities wine tastings in the village and nearby cities, but the real secret beauty lies in the old roman roads with no traffic taking you to the medieval magical towns, full of visual beauty.
La Scuola is walking distance from San Casciano dei Bagni medieval "piazza", still totally private and secluded.
"La Scuola" a 7-bedrooms with bathrooms en suite house has been designed with all the technical communication requirements that are today important. La Scuola is the spontaneous solution for people looking at alternative places offering a sophisticated way of life and real comforts.
There is a houseman that looks after the house, garden and pool and an excellent cook preparing Tuscan cuisine at its best! Cooking classes can be arranged. Extra help with cars and drivers can be arranged on demand.
On requests we provide: Masseurs and trainers: from Yoga to Pilates, Reiki and Shiatsu.
Designers' outlets from Prada and Gucci to Dolce Gabbana and Roberto Cavalli are a short drive away.
The interior design is impeccable: crisp white sheets, piles of white towels in the bathrooms, comfortable specially designed sofas, long wonderful tables to eat or work, crockery, plates, glasses to enable entertaining 24 people. Lighting on dimmers everywhere and a lot of lanterns to light up already splendorous starry nights.
There is a choice of bedrooms: with 2 single or 1 double beds, some upholstered, some old 19th century 4-posters all with bathrooms en suite. There is throughout a feeling of well being, peace and health in harmony with the universe!
