Overview A beautiful 15th century casa padronale (manor house), Villa La Noce sits on a hilltop overlooking the Tuscan hills and farmlands, minutes away from the little village of Le Mura and a short drive from hilltop Certaldo and San Gimignano. The house is at the centre of a large olive-growing estate and is surrounded by a stunning garden with majestic cypresses, flowering bougainvillaea and ancient olive trees. Restored and decorated by its present owners, the villa features beamed ceilings, terracotta floors and beautiful antique furniture. The very large, tiled swimming pool is set above the house for the best views, and shares its terracotta terrace with teak loungers, a bar equipped with a stereo and a shaded dining table ideal for al fresco meals.
