The Tuscany region
Tuscany is the fifth largest region of Italy. It is mostly an agricultural region as depicted in the backgrounds of so many renaissance paintings. While over the ages prestigious farming areas (such as the vineyards of Chianti and Monteplciano, the olive-groves near Lucca and the flower growing around Pistoia) have developed about 40% of Tuscany is still covered by woodland. Siena is the origin of one of the most renowned wines in the world. The landscape features hills, fields, woodlands, rows of vines and olives groves, reminiscent of Sienese Quattrocento Painting. The orderly vineyards of sangiovese, canaiolo, malvasia and trebbiano - the varieties of grape which yields Chianti wine – are all found here. Since the days of the Grand Dukes the countryside has been dotted with farmhouses, villas, castles and turreted hamlets.
Florence area
Montespertoli is an extraordinarily well preserved historic centre with a picturesque Church and square. Montespertoli is a typical Tuscan town, with vineyards, olive groves and fields as well as cypresses, white, country roads and typical stone farmhouses. Villa le Torri lets you experience the area, enjoying the view over the towers from the pool or discovering the landscape on foot or by renting one of our mountain bikes. The wines and olive oil of the area are second to none. The 'I Lecci' Museum is provides a historical and scientific illustration of the wine making process, starting from soil analysis and ending with the vintner. The museum features an absolutely new experience, a laboratory of the senses for adults and children, where the visitor can smell the different aromas of wines, sometimes strong, sometimes delicate, focus on the colour and feel the consistency for a real discovery in which all the senses are involved in wine-tasting.
In less than an hour you can reach Pisa with the famous leaning tower, Siena, Volterra, S. Gimignano. Lucca and the Tuscan coast can be reached in about one hour by car. Rome, the Italian capital is about 230 km away. In the village San Quirico in Collina, you can find a bank, post office, chemist, groccers and a restaurant.

Just a brief note to thank you once again for the wonderful time we had while we stayed with you at Le Torri. Our time with you was unforgettable, as was the wonderful food and all the services you provided to make our stay so enjoyable. Again, let me say that you and your family made our two weeks in Toscana truly memorable, and we thank you so very much. With true affection and gratitude,".." Eugene & Denise Marquis, Canada, 25 October 2005
"Thank you for allowing us to share your wonderful holiday apartments. Everything about Villa Torri was superb, a wonderfully run and immaculate site. It is obvious that you and your family take great pride in you home. It has been excellently restored and converted, and it was a pleasure to stay, and to taste "mamas" buffett! We would like to return one day to Villa Torri.." John Tietjen and party, UK, 05 September 2005.
"A quick email to say thank you once again for everything that you and your family did to make our two week holiday so enjoyable. We had a really good time at Le Torri and just about everything was perfect. All best wishes for the rest of the season and congratulations on operating such a friendly and welcoming holiday accommodation. Your family clearly work very hard to make Le Torri such a success and you should be proud of what you have achieved." Ian, Annette and Katie Bowden, UK, 11 Apt 5, 28 August 2005
" Just a note to say thank for your attention and kindness during our recent holiday in Villa Le Torri. Having picked Le Torri back in February off the internet, I was unsure whether it would live up to our expectations - it did! but went even better, the standard of the accommodation was excellent, the hospitality by you and your family was wonderful, the scenery was idyllic. All of your Northern Ireland vistors thoroughly enjoyed themselves and will remember all of including the wonderful Tuscan night for many years. We look forward to future visits!!" Peter Sheridan, UK, 11 August 2005
"… in the most case is the homepage or the prospect better than the reality. Not in your case, I had not thought that your house is so beautiful. At our stay, we feel like in a little castle …" Family Brunner, Austria May 2002
"…My family and I are now home from our Italian holiday and I wanted to say thank you one more time and tell you again how much we enjoyed our stay at Le Torri. We could not have found a better home for our holiday. The house, the garden, and the pool are all beautiful. My wife is not easy to impress and she fell in love with every detail of the place. You and your family are wonderful hosts. Thanks again , Gabriele, for making this a very special and memorable trip for my entire family. Yom Trupiano & Family, Usa July 2000
"…The room is great, the gardens are immaculate and the swimming pool is always there when you need it most, this is usually exclusively ours during the days we spend at Le Torri. Gabriele is both charming and helpful. As well as being in the most stunning countryside, Le Torri is fantastically placed for accessing both Florence, Siena and Pisa. Having a very relaxed time, enjoying the food far too much-unfortunately all holidays must come to an end." Mr and Mrs Coldrick, London, August 2000
