Introduction
This nineteenth century watch tower features two original and entirely independent apartments. The apartment sleeping 6 has a surface area of 80 m² and is located on the ground floor.
The tower was conceived as a look-out post during the wars between the Republics of Siena and Florence. Restoration work has been undertaken with great care and taste, in full respect of the original materials and structure (small windows), with an aim of exploiting the load bearing structures as decorative features. The tower boasts a magnificent, peaceful position, a natural balcony, overlooking San Gimignano. Furnishings are comfortable and of a rustic nature. The apartments may be linked via a door connecting the living room in "Torre 2" (IT-53036-03) with the access stairs in "Torre 1" (IT-53036-02).
Guests may make use of the large equipped garden (2500m²), with lawns and a pool measuring 5m x 12m, with a depth of 1.30m, open 15/05 - 30/09, shower (cold water) and two barbecues. Each apartment boasts independent access and parking.
