Villa Cercoschene

Full Description

Villa Cercoschene is a luxury villa rental with sweeping views across the entire Reschio Estate highlighting its historical importance. With remnants of its early medieval structure and a Romanesque arch it really was, and remains, a master of all it surveys.

Stepping over the threshold into a new double height entrance with an unsupported solid stone staircase, it is a real show stopper. Terraces, some covered in wisteria or protected by mature fig trees, are all around the house, each with stupendous views over olive groves and vineyards to ancient oak and chestnut forests beyond.

An outside dining area, with a bread oven is a few steps from the panoramic swimming pool and lounge where an open fireplace will tempt you into evenings of chatter and stargazing. One of the four bedrooms is an independent studio and with a kitchenette.

Location

Around the villa, you’ll find cypress-lined avenues perfect for gentle strolls, historic castle chapels to explore, and the estate’s abundant orto, where seasonal produce is freshly harvested. The landscapes of Umbria and Tuscany inspired the canvases of the Renaissance painters, and exploring the hazy hills, medieval hill-top towns, museums and art galleries is a rare treat.

Spend time at the Equestrian Centre watching Spanish horses train with elegance, then pause for lunch at Ristorante Alle Scuderie or a drink at Bar Centrale. Cool off with a swim in the estate’s lake, followed by a picnic in the lakeside cabin. For more activity, take on the resident tennis coach on the Astroturf courts. As the day draws to a close, enjoy cocktails in the Palm Court at the Reschio Hotel, or savour a sunset dinner at Ristorante Al Castello, when the surrounding Etruscan hills glow with enchantment.

Within an hour’s drive of Reschio are the spellbinding towns of Assisi, Arezzo, Cortona, Gubbio, Perugia and Siena. The long summer season, meanwhile, is alive with open-air concerts and opera, as well as little seasonal festas held in villages and towns.
