Podere Campotorno is located near the small village of Palazzone just a few kilometres from San Casciano dei Bagni, an historical borgo classified among the most beautiful of Italy and renowned for the extraordinary beauty of its thermal springs, which lies south of Siena and Monte Cetona. It stands in a silent secluded position on a hill 500 m above sea level with an amazing view over the immense green tableland that stretches to the horizon. The property lies within a recently renovated agricultural construction, composed of a main building and three annexes, all finely furnished and air conditioned, permitting large groups and families to have their own private space while, at the same time, sharing a common area consisting of a cosy, rustic living room with fully-equipped kitchen. The property is surrounded by a well-kept park with fruit trees, green lawns, living areas and a panoramic pool. Its position guarantees authentic moments in the beautiful countryside surrounding it and is, at the same time, perfect as a departure point for adventuring out as it is just 8 km from the A1 motorway exit of Fabro and so within easy reach of the most beautiful localities of Tuscany and neighbouring Umbria.
