Michelangelo Villa, Salt Water Pool, Spectacular Scenery, Mountain View

Beautiful Tuscan villa in Tuscany Villa Resort at Caprese Michelelangelo with breathtaking views perfect for couples.
Right in the heart of Tuscany overlooking the castle & village of Caprese Michelangelo and is set in 100 acres of the most beautiful mountain forests.
The relaxing, salt water pool complete with Roman steps, sits in a peaceful olive grove with a spectacular view through the mountains to the fairytale-esque Castle of Michelangelo.

The tranquil position, frequently described as 'paradise on earth' contains an abundance of wildlife where the birds sing at night and the fireflies provide a moving display of sparkling light.
In years gone by, the villa was owned by the Vatican and was used to house monks from the monastery. Ideal for walking and cycling, the area is home to many fine restaurants, with truffles and mushrooms being a local specialty, and good Tuscan wines. The mountains and forests have inspired the three greatest artists of the Renaissance and remain largely unspoiled today. This is where the great artist Michelangelo was born and lived. The little chapel where he was baptised is in the village and a museum dedicated to him is within the Castle of Michelangelo. Nearby at La Verna is the Franciscan monastery retreat where St Francis of Assisi is said to have received the stigmata. Rich in Renaissance history are the local towns of Sansepolcro, Cortona and the medieval walled town of Anghiari. It is ideal for walking and cycling in particular.
There is so much to see & do as well as time to relax by the salt water pool which is heated by solar panels.
The area has many great restaurants and because we are not close to the city the prices are very low.
Anghiari, a wonderful medieval walled town is nearby.
In Caprese Michelangelo you will find the castle and birthplace of the legendary artist Michelangelo to visit as well as restaurants and bars serving great food.
Enjoy an authentic Italian experience at the local olive oil mill. The mill dates back to 1421 and is still in use to this day.
This wonderful experience of visiting an oil mill is fantastic. First you will have a little tour of the mill and then you go to the family residence where you will enjoy a fresh and delicious meal complete with wine made from the grapes from their own vineyard in the courtyard. This is preceded by an opportunity to taste the many variations of their own oils on fresh bread. Particularly remarked upon, are the fennel, lemon, black and white truffle and basil flavoured oils.
Located in a picturesque alpine valley town nearby is the thermal spa which offers guests the perfect setting to relax and unwind. The large pool is separated into indoor and outdoor sections, enabling visitors to take in the breath-taking views or gaze up into the night sky. This beautiful spa also boasts Jacuzzis, waterfalls and a steam cave.
You don’t need to worry about bringing shampoo, hair conditioner or shower gel as we supply all of that. We also supply all the towels including pool towels.
Pool open from May to September.

Warm,relaxing and friendly
We loved our stay the Michael Angelo villa. The views are spectacular, the area is magnificent and the villa is very comfortable with everything you could need. Even on the hottest days the breezes were ample and the pool was perfect. Best of all is the hostess, Freyja who is just wonderful. Always available and full of excellent suggestions, she really made the week perfect for us. Highly recommended experience

Quiet Country Paradise
We thoroughly enjoyed our 6 day R+R in Tuscany. We were not after the big city tourist attractions, nor crowds, so finding this place worked great. Freyja, our host was so helpful with advice, directions, dinner reservations that we became friends. Her passion is animal rescue and Freyja uses proceeds to support this cause caring for injured or neglected animals. Being more country we found restaurants were open and less cost. We loved sitting by the beautiful swimming pool and the views from our Villa stunning. We highly recommend this gem.

Wonderful and special property
My husband and I recently stayed at this property and I can't tell you how breathtakingly beautiful it is. The views are simply stunning Freya, the hostess, was extremely helpful and friendly. She had great suggestions on places to visit and set us up with a wine tasting in Cortona with her wonderful friend, Gabriella, who has a wine shop there. She also got us reservations and a fabulous table at a local restaurant and arranged for a cab service for us. The location of this property is very special, not only are the views beautiful, but it is a great spot to hub off to various destinations in Tuscany (we drove to Cortona, Siena, Arezzo, Anghiari, Montepulciano, and Cesenatico- all very special places to visit). It is also about an 1 and 45 minute drive from the Florence aiport so it's very convenient. I highly recommend this property to anyone visiting Tuscany and am so thankful to Freya for making this trip extra special for us.

Lovely property and lots of private space outside to enjoy the fantastic views
Lovely property and lots of private space outside to enjoy the fantastic views. It was a little too early in the season to enjoy the pool but I am sure it is very welcome when the weather improves. Freya and her husband were lovely hosts and made us feel very welcome. They gave us lots of great tips where to go and we followed all of them. Many thanks.

We loved it
We loved our stay here - Freyja had been extremely helpful and accommodating ahead of our arrival, and this carried through to the very end. The location is simply beautiful - our villa had an amazing view of the hills and across to Caprese Michelangelo. The area is a bit of an undiscovered gem - some amazing places with very little in the way of tourists - but with some iconic sites within reasonable daily travel. We made good use of the pool (excellent size and setting), the hot tub and the swing bench which was in our garden - chatting into the evening against the backdrop of silence other than the crickets... The kitchen was ideal for two - gave us the opportunity to eat out at lunchtimes and then make the most of local produce snacking in the evenings! Both Freyja and Malcolm kept the balance of helpfulness with giving us enough space to enjoy - we took up their suggestions of the olive oil tasting (fab afternoon!), and also the Sunday lunch in a local restaurant Caprese Michelangelo - best meal we had on the trip. Lots to do in the area - possibly too much as we could have easily spent more time enjoying the pool! We loved our stay, and will definitely be back.

Fantastic Experience
First, Malcolm and Freyja are the true gems at TVR. From the first moment we felt welcome and relaxed. The property is beautiful and meticulously groomed. The villas are clean and cozy. The views are straight out of a fantasy. We had a fantastic stay and will be returning. Cheers, Malcolm and Freyja!!

A great place to stay in Tuscany
A great place to stay in a beautiful part of Italy. The view from the balcony of the Michelangelo suite is stunning. The property is peaceful and secluded, with a fire pit and a brand-new Scandinavian hot tub (the wooden, above-ground kind). It helps to hire a car in this region -- the villa is a 30-minute drive from Sansepolcro, Anghiari, and other historic spots. (Sansepolcro has a well-provisioned grocery store as well.) Freyja and Malcolm are superb hosts, with a deep knowledge of local attractions and history; they're also happy to recommend great local restaurants and to make bookings on your behalf.

Wonderful Hosts, Incredible Vistas and All You Could Wish For, We Didn't Want To Leave!
We booked our stay for Birthday/Anniversary celebrations and was everything we could have wished for. Our hosts Freyja and Malcolm were so warm and welcoming, we instantly felt relaxed and at home. They kindly offered us the option of a 3 course meal on arrival and catered for our vegetarian needs, which was greatly appreciated after a long day of travelling and absolutely delicious. We stayed in the Michelangelo Suite, a spacious and comfortable villa equipped with everything required for a relaxing holiday. This also has a wonderful balcony where we enjoyed a glass of Prosecco (or two!) whilst taking in the incredible views of the surrounding Tuscan Hills. Freyja and Malcolm have invaluable knowledge of excellent local restaurants and places of interest to visit and are more than happy to help with any queries or bookings. We can't thank them enough for an unforgettable holiday, our only regret is that we didn't have more time there. Ciao for now.... but we hope to be back.

Beautiful Villa Michelangelo
We had booked at the villa for 1 week, this simply proved to short a visit. The villa is extremely comfortable with plenty of space and 1 bedroom. It has a well 'kitted ' out kitchen area, dining area and its own balcony. The views are breathtaking and the peace incredible. Freya and Malcolm are exceptional hosts finding the perfect balance of being there to assist when required but leave you to your own devices otherwise. We took a train and visited Florence for the day and had 2 occasions to visit a local town, Anghari which was wonderful. Directions were easy and accurate and the situation in the Tuscan hills simply beautiful. The local town of Caprese Michelangelo is lovely and well worth a visit also. The swimming pool, hammock's and other seating in the villa complex is plentiful and there is plenty room for all the guests each having a space should they wish to keep to themselves. The descriptions were accurate, the villa clean and tidy. This was simply a beautiful experience and we intend to visit again. I will recommend this property to others.

Beautiful location
Villa Michaelangelo is in a most beautiful location. We had a wonderful holiday. There is so much to see and do in the area. Everyone we met was so friendly and helpful. Freya and Malcolm are very knowledgeable, helpful and kind. We enjoyed the wildlife and the changing scenes the weather brought. Lots of lovely, cheap restaurants. Highlights were visit to La Verna (with excellent guide Lee) , visit to Florence, 18 course Sunday lunch. A disappointment was that the on site restaurant and shop were not in operation while we were there. We would have liked to have made use of them.
