We are less than three kilometres from the historic town centre of Arezzo that was the birthplace of numerous artists and which today conserves architectural and artistic masterpieces of world fame; thanks to the A1 motorway (Autostrada del Sole) which is just 13 km away and to the train station (5 km away), you can easily reach Florence, Siena, Perugia, Cortona and the beautiful areas of the Chianti and Casentino areas. Palazzaccio is part of the farm estate of San Fabiano, located about 500 m from the residence, one of the largest and most prestigious in the region, whose lands cultivated with olives and grapes produce an exceptional extra virgin olive oil and the prestigious nectar which you can taste and buy directly from the cellars on site. The property offers guests a free tasting of their own wines which can be purchased on the estate. Possibility of having a chef on request for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Please Note: when the property is rented in this solution no other guests will be present on site.

Park:
About one hectare of parkland surrounds Palazzaccio, characterized by large areas planted with grass and bounded on the sides by the vineyards of the property that stretch to the hilly horizon. From the entrance gate, an elegant private driveway lined with cypress trees leads to the parking place beside the villa. In the beautiful, well-tended garden, enlivened by many blooms, areas have been set up for relaxing outdoors, ideal for convivial situations but also, in the case of large groups of people, to ensure private moments or quiet relaxation. The portico in front of the main villa, with direct access from the kitchen, and the pergola equipped with table and chairs, situated between the villa and the annex, are the two ideal areas for alfresco dining.Please notice that photos are taken in spring, therefore flower blossoming, and the colours of the gardens' grass could be different at the moment of your arrival at the villa.
