Villa Donati 14
An historic villa for 14 on the Tuscan hills : Rosia, near Siena
Nice little touches
- Montestigliano is a beautiful spot and this house is a great choice for a family holiday. There is help with cooking and meals and the children always meet new friends.
- The two swimming pools mean there is one that is kept quiet for reading and relaxing while the second one - further away from the houses - is for fun and frolics.
Good to know
- Wireless internet available in all apartments, estate office, courtyard, furnished gardens and near swimming pools.
- Pets are welcome, but only in Mid and Low seasons and never allowed around the swimming pools

Around Villa Donati
There are two large swimming pools shared by guests at the main villa and the farmhouses. Both have ample sun furniture and extensive views across the countryside as far as Siena. The pool nearest the villa is reserved for people who want peace and quiet.
The estate buildings form a small complex with some farmhouses and agricultural buildings in a beautiful position on top of a hill, with extensive views of the surrounding countryside. Wide, sandy floored cypress lined avenues traverse the forested hills of the estate, often terminating in belvederes at the most impressive viewpoints.
Although many of the stone benches which once flanked the avenues have gone, enough still remain to provide resting places on your walks down these romantic remnants of a more leisured era. Through the tangled woodlands, across the cultivated plain below, one can see Siena and the Chianti hills in the distance, and there is a rare abundance of wild flowers and animals. Wine, olive oil and other farm produce is for sale and guests are very welcome to watch or join in with agricultural activities.
