The Villa Boccella
It was Petrarch in the 14th century who advocated the country house as a place of rest and repose, starting the fashion for beautiful houses set in the hills, away from the heat of the city.
The Villa Boccella, built in 1729, is a very fine example of such architecture. The estate, with its vineyards and olive groves, still produces its own wine and oil.
Over the past few years Boccella has been sympathetically renovated to provide accommodation that is comfortably furnished in the charming Tuscan style. With the provision of several meeting /sitting rooms, it can accommodate study groups and lends itself particularly well to courses on the history of art, the Renaissance, painting or cookery
Since we have taken care not to lose the feel of a family home, the Boccella is also ideal for a reunion of friends or family and, with its extensive grounds and swimming pool, is a wonderful place for children.
