About this property

beautiful tuscan villa with pool, ideal for groups

Casa Casale is idyllic for relaxing and enjoying the mountains in the southern part of Tuscany. A traditional Tuscan house, located in a peaceful area at 700 m above sea level with 25 hectares of land extending to the valley. Impeccable location for families and small groups as it offers a lot of space and options for all needs: enjoying each others’ company, sports and games, and for relaxation lay back and forget the world. The hiking paths start as you step out of the door, near to Cortona leading to many cities of artistic, cultural and historic interest in southern Tuscany and Umbria. These are also easily accessible by car.

Facing the eastern side of the lake there is a large flat square, with great views of the countryside and the mountains,
A covered garage for 3 cars, a table tennis table shaded by a 60 sq.m pergola with wisteria where you can sit and dine comfortably even in the warm midsummer climate.
The southern side has a paved 80 sq.m terrace with a table, sun loungers and an almond tree that gives shade, where there is a sun kissed dining area, sheltered in the autumn and springtime. In the garden there are a few terraces with chairs and sun loungers.
The pool (9 x 4.5 m), with solarium, features sun loungers, parasols and shower, as well as two charming terraces which you can stumble across as you take a step down from the house with picturesque views, infused with the scents of lavender, thyme and rosemary. Poolside there are swings for children and a large grassy area with a volleyball net and the old horse riding school nearby, ideal for any type of ball game imaginable. Garden, terraces, pergolas and swimming pool are at your disposal.
The house was completely renovated at the turn of the century, with typical ceilings with wooden beams, terracotta floors and Tuscan country house chimneys, but it also offers contemporary and modern facilities. This house has been in the Attwood family for over 25 years and has a lot of old photos, books and furniture that create a unique atmosphere; warm and comfortable.
From the Piazza, you step through the main door towards the cloakroom and the stone staircase to get to the first floor. Here you will find a warm trattoria-style kitchen with an antique marble table where the 'mammas' rolled out the sheets of pasta; in addition there is a fully fitted kitchen. Whilst waiting for your meal, you can have a glass of wine next to the chimney, or surf the internet from the desk in front of the windows. Through the cloakroom there is direct access to two bedrooms (both with double beds made with Tuscan steel, and one with an extra sofa bed) and a bathroom with WC and bidet. A small bedroom with two single beds can be found along the corridor that leads to the second floor.

On the second floor there are two more bedrooms, a bathroom and a living room (45 sq.m) where you can make a fire and relax on one of the sofas, watch TV or a DVD after doing sporting activities or cultural excursions. Or indeed you can take a pew at the chestnut table and play board or card games.

In the old stables and storeroom on the lower floors there is the separate lodging for the housekeepers with a private entrance and garden at the rear of the house. The couple who manage the property maintain the pool, the garden and the property and are always ready to help out and full of all sorts of useful information. You will be able to enjoy the delicious Tuscan specialities and the products from the garden. Cleaning is charged separately.

The house belongs to John and Sabine who have spent alot of time here with their son Robby, although they live in Munich. John, who grew up in Kenya, trained in England, where he worked in many places as a builder and carpenter and he has renovated our house with a lot of love and attention. Since we retired we have taken charge of running and renting out the house.

Sublime Villa in Tuscany
If you are looking for a perfect Villa in Tuscany, this is it. Set in a magical hillside location, the view from the pool is a magnificent panorama of the Tuscan countryside. The house itself easily has four large double bedrooms and one twin. It's ideal for groups - there's space for large social gatherings as well as different areas to provide privacy for separate groups. We can't wait to go back one day!

A beautiful property in an amazing setting.
We had a fabulous time in our 3 weeks at Casale Palazzo. We were travelling through Italy with a 4 year old, 2 year old and 6 month old and had arranged for two separate groups of friends to come and visit us while we were there. At the most we had two other adults with a 12 year old, 10 year old and an 8 year old. The first thing to say is that the house has an incredible view…mountains, greenery, and barely another house in sight. The house is a beautiful old villa that has been lovingly restored over decades by the owners, John and Sabine, who are on hand to offer advice on things to do, and- in our case- kindly had our children get involved in helping with planting the veggie garden and tractor rides!! The house is fully equipped with everything we could think of (and easily sleeps two families with lots of space), and the grounds are fantastic- a lovely big sun terrace, an expansive front garden, an area with hammocks, a huge grassy paddock (once a menagerie) now equipped with a volleyball/football/badminton net, a lovely pool with plenty of sun loungers…and views that are extraordinary in every light. The house is 10 km up a mountain road, but the drive is easy, and the location well worth it. It is close to Cortona, a beautiful walled town (setting for Under Tuscan Sun film), and trips to Montepulciano, Sienna, Florence, Rome, the hot pools at Rappolano Terme, and lots of other places are all within distance…and if we could handle it with three small children in the car, it should be fine for you!! It is a true destination property. We were very sad to leave!

Fantastisk hus og beliggenhed .
Vi var 4 voksne og 4 børn og vi har haft en super skøn ferie. Ejerne af huset tog i mod og var meget behjælpelige. Hbos jeg skal nævne noget som ikke skal have 5 stjerner. Lidt hårde senge . Men ellers var alt perfekt og sikke en udsigt Vi kommer gerne igen. ( lige en blødere seng😊)

About the host

Hosted by John Attwood, Sabine Kühn

Host profile image
The house has been the Attwood family home since 1973 and the owners John and Sabine have lived here and in Munich with their son Robby. John grew up in Kenya, did his training in England, is a gifted craftsman and modelmaker and renovated the house lovingly in traditional style Since retiring we have taken it on ourselves to do the renting and take care of the place ourselves.

Why they chose this property

We love the Italian dolce vita, the Tuscan culture and the landscape, as well as the many cultural and gastronomic delights on offer.

What makes this property unique

We adore the winding road from bustling Cartona to our peaceful area in the wilds of the mountains, the visible changes in the day-to-day activities, the climate and the weather on the mountainside, the Trasimeno lake and the Val di Chiana, the freedom, the wide open spaces that we have here and the active social life surrounded by many friends.
