La Torre Di Talamonaccio

Historic Spanish Tower tucked away in a magical corner of Southern Tuscany, perched up on top of a cliff which overlooks the sea. The Talamonaccio Tower was erected to protect against the Saracen invasions. Recently it has undergone restoration and is now the idea property to rent for an extraordinary holiday.

The tower is set on private land which is closed with an electronic security gate. Guests will be thoroughly impressed with the wonderful view and natural beauties which stretch out from every corner of the tower. A small boulevard of magnificent agavi cacti lead to the front door, creating a romantic and exotic atmosphere.

Continuing on along the entrance corridor to the left of the dining room is a fully equipped modern kitchen and, at the end of the corridor, another bedroom which also has its own bathroom with shower and tub.

At the end of this corridor, a staircase leads to the first floor where guests find an enormous living room with air-conditioning and a fireplace and a fabulous panoramic view. This living room is furnished with comfortable lounge chairs and couches on one side of the room, and an antique wooden table for eight on the other side. This room gives access to a splendid terrace which is can be used for both dining and sunbathing. The breathtaking view captures Proto S.

The islands of Giannutri, Giglio and Montecristo can also be seen from the terrace.

From the open space on the ground floor, there is a staircase which leads to the lookout tower. This has also been restored and is divided into two floors.

The Talamonaccio Tower is equipped with satellite television, direct-dial telephone and internet connection.

The tower is surrounded by two terraces, one of which has been transformed into a splendid panoramic lookout amongst the greenery of the garden. It is the perfect setting to soak up the sun in a deck chair or, after sunset, enjoy the company of good friends and a glass of wine. There is also a jacuzzi.
