Rovea

Welcome to Rovea, a serene 10-bedroom villa set in the beautiful Val d'Orcia in the heart of Tuscany. Within a wine-producing estate, this quintessential Tuscan property enjoys calming views of unspoiled natural scenery, ancient olive groves, and the town of Montalcino in the distance. The charming medieval villages and historic churches dotted across the surrounding pristine landscape are rich in cultural heritage and brimming with Italian charm. Rovea is the perfect setting for anyone looking to reconnect with themselves and nature by relaxing to the slower pace of rural life in Tuscany, indulging in the exquisite local cuisine and exploring all this world-renowned region has to offer.

Perfectly in keeping with the exceptional beauty of Val d'Orcia, Villa Rovea's charming brick exterior exudes authentic Tuscan flair. The large, covered patio is where you and your friends and family are bound to spend much of your days, basking in the glorious Italian sun. Just outside the kitchen and sitting room, this space allows you to make the most of the indoor-outdoor lifestyle. Why not let our concierge service take away the stress of entertaining by organizing a private chef to prepare a wonderful meal for you and your family to share al fresco, accompanied by a delicious glass of Orcia D.O.C picked up during the day's excursions. There could be no more romantic setting for an incredible dinner, watching the sun slowly set over the rolling hills, with the sparkling lights of Montalcino twinkling on the horizon. Several intimate lounging areas offer your guests a private spot to sit out and unwind, absorbing the tranquillity of the spectacular views. After a busy day adventuring, why not spend the afternoon sipping on a refreshing cocktail poolside, working on your suntan, followed by a leisurely dip in the villa's private pool?

The traditional character of the villa continues indoors. Each wing of the house offers several social spaces to choose from, all flooded with natural light. The main living room and dining room that can accommodate all your guests are located in the north wing, as well as the largest kitchen. This space perfectly blends modern comforts with country elegance by emphasizing stylish traditional features, including exposed beams and antique furniture. The south wing offers another cosy living room with a fireplace and a second fully equipped kitchen. The annex also includes its own beautiful living room and kitchen so that your guests can have some private space to themselves.

One cannot stay in Tuscany without visiting the extraordinary city of Siena. The medieval town is built across several undulating hills and valleys so be sure to add a good pair of walking shoes to your Italy packing list! The lack of traffic in this pedestrian town makes Siena a wonderful spot for a leisurely stroll, especially with young children. Despite being a popular tourist destination, there is always an easy-going atmosphere in the city. The focal point of this vibrant city is undoubtedly the shell-shaped square at its center, Piazza del Campo. Not only is it a great spot to try a delicious, oversized gelato but it is also the setting of the world-famous horse race, the Palio, which has taken place here each summer since the 1700s. Other notable landmarks in Siena include the Torre del Mangia (one of the highest lookout towers in Tuscany), the Siena Baptistry, and the Siena Cathedral.

Tuscany is well known as the producer of some of the best food in Italy. Booking a private guide around some of Tuscany's best-known wine regions is one of the most memorable Tuscany tours to try during your stay. Chianti, Brunello di Montalcino and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano are home to some of the most notable producers in the area. Be sure to stop at some of the smaller vineyards, where you can try some of their fantastic wine, learn about its production and maybe even have a chance to meet the owner. Be sure to purchase a few of your favorites bottles to enjoy back at the villa.

Rovea is the perfect getaway for a large group of friends or family offering ample space for all your guests without feeling overcrowded. This luxury Tuscan villa's remarkable setting, fantastic amenities, and Italian charm will have you coming back for years to come.
