Decadent and unforgettable. Villa La Borghetta is a four-star resort that simply breathes indulgence. Hidden amongst the plains of the Tuscan countryside, between Arezzo, Siena and Florence, Villa La Borghetta is more about pampering yourself than having a place a stay while on vacation. More about throwing caution to the wind than scrimping on a bare-minimum holiday experience. And more about pampering yourself in an vibe that couldn’t get any more stately, anymore magnificent.

Villa La Borghetta isn’t a name thought up by the resort’s owners to make it sound more luxurious. This incredible hotel began life as a watch tower in the 14th century, before becoming a fortified farm known in the surrounding towns as ‘El Borghetto del Zocco’. The farm was then bought by the influential noble Piccolomini family who transformed the humble buildings into a grand resort , painting their coat of arms on the manor house you still see today.

With such an impressive heritage, Villa La Borghetta has all the class and class of old money. Every building, every stretch of flower-filled garden and every olive tree and grape vine in the vast farm is infused with centuries’ old history and tradition. And they provide the ideal accompaniment to Tuscany’s very own splendour magnificence, its landscape, which are like works of art you won’t be able to take your gaze off of.

The rooms keep with the old gentlemanly style that is spread throughout the villa. Feel like Marie Antoinette or King Henry as you relax on the velvet chase lounge or chill-out in the gold-lined bathtub. From its four-poster bed with silk sheets to its terracotta bathroom and thick, draping blinds, each room drips with opulence and elegance. And with internet, pay-tv, air-conditioning and heating you won’t be cut off from the comforts of the modern world either.

But if a hotel room simply won’t do, then you can truly treat yourself with one of La Borghetta’s private villas. Separate parking, your very own pool and a small slice of the resort’s scenic garden are just some of the perks of renting a villa. But the best part is the autonomy and privacy you get by staying in your very own Tuscan manor….not to mention the absolute lavishness.

Like any good resort, Villa La Borghetta has the perfect antidote for stress-filled days exploring the sights of Tuscany, a day spa. Stylishly designed and offering every guilt-free indulging pleasure delight you can think off, the resort’s spa centre is ideal for a day indoors. Whatever takes your fancy, whether it’s a soothing massage, toning facial or sauna sojourn, a trip to the spa will cure any vacation blues.

Villa La Borghetta wouldn’t be world-class estate without its first-class restaurant. Who needs to go out when you can get classic traditional fare cooked with the same style and elegance that is infused throughout the entire resort? Prepared by one of Italy’s most sought after chefs, the cuisine at Villa Borghetta’s restaurant will keep you coming back night after night.

Villa La Borghetta isn’t simply a place for you to leave your luggage while you travel, its part of the vacation itself. An experience like no other, it is without a doubt the sort of indescribable pleasures that makes your trip to the heart of the Tuscan countryside unlike any other. And with a vast and strikingly furnished conference room, Villa La Borghetta is also the ideal location to showcase your business, pleasure your guests or hold impressive meetings and events.
