Novedieci retains the ambience of a 600-year-old farmhouse, with its grand staircase, yet has all the amenities expected by 21st century guests: central heating, internet access, flat screen tvs and sky cable. A pool sits on the lawn below the house with views over the valley. Beautiful walks may be taken through the woods, olive groves and vineyards. Guests have access to a private tennis court.

The stunning and peaceful landscape, the warm people and the absorbing courses at times make it difficult for people to leave Villa Novedieci. The calm, the views and the many personal “nooks” cause some people to say, “I’m staying right here.”

Accommodation

Much thought was given to retaining the feel of a 500-year-old rustic Tuscan farmhouse. The house is furnished with elegant and comfortable furniture, and the high ceilings are of terra cotta and wood. The overall impression is one of comfort and light enhanced by a skylight illuminating both the top and ground floors through the stairwells.
