Villa Giglio
is a splendid 18th century villa. It is situated within a farm that produces
wine and olive oil of an excellent quality. From the entrance of the farm,
a little road lined with cypress trees passes by the different farmhouses
and the tennis court and leads to a little square where the villa is situated.
The villa forms the nucleus of the farm and is surrounded by the other
buildings of the farm: the offices of the property, the wine cellars,
and the farmhouses with several holiday apartments that are rented on
a weekly basis. Therefore, although the villa is independent, it is not
isolated. It shares the open spaces and the garden with the other guests
of the farm and it is surrounded by the estate's agricultural activities.
Villa Giglio is not suited for guests that prefer total isolation. But
it is the ideal place for spending a holiday in an elegant villa with
all comforts while being in contact with the rural reality of Tuscany.

large and beautiful garden surrounds the villa. With its little paths
delimited by hedges and its flowerbeds, the garden is a typical example
of 18th century gardening. In the lower part of the garden, there is a

The pool offers a beautiful panorama on the surrounding hills, and it
overlooks a second pool which is used by the guests of the farmhouse apartments.
