Villa Evelina is made up of two ancient, stone-built country houses, situated one next to the other, only 900m from the old city centre of Montepulciano. This splendid town is also called "The Pearl of the 1500s", protected by its ancient Renaissance fortifications and is famous for the beauty of its buildings and churches and for the charm of the territory. It stands out with its silhouette extending over the hilltop just in front of the Villa and can be seen from many of the windows, the garden and the swimming pool, offering truly beautiful scenery.
The structure is immersed in the greenery of the typical Tuscan countryside: a large garden, which is very well kept, surrounds the country houses, with majestic trees, a delicate English-style lawn with paths that lead to secluded equipped and panoramic areas, flower gardens, among which there are a few types of ancient roses, lavender and Mediterranean shrubs, the rock garden with numerous kinds of succulent plants and the large olive-tree grove that surrounds the property.
The private swimming pool (12m x 6m) is surrounded by a lawn and olive trees and offers a great view of the town and the valley. Renovation of the structure, which has just recently ended, was carried out sympathetically towards the original pieces and the old doors, so as to create a cosy atmosphere and spacious areas, and most of all with prestigious details: the fireplaces are artisan pieces made from stone and juniper trunks, in some of the bathrooms there are natural rocks and mosaics, in others are hand-painted tiles, many chandeliers have been designed to compliment the furnishings and were made by the master glass craftsmen of Murano.
There are many comforts for the guests: air conditioning in all the rooms, satellite TV, wifi in every room, bathtubs or showers with massaging water jets. The division of the areas is unique, some of the rooms or suites have independent access to the outdoors, offering particular privacy to the guests, there are shared areas both in the first and in the second country house and numerous outdoor areas where you can lounge, eat and relax (there is also a large separate area with a large barbecue and oven), enjoying splendid views. The country houses can also be rented separately in the low season. And of course, you can't forget the farm's extra-virgin olive oil, chicken and hen farm as well as the sheep and pig farm, all bred outdoors near the farm, that you can walk to from the country houses, and most importantly, the large vegetable garden with a wide variety of organic fruit and vegetables.
