Vigneto Suite

Located on the second floor of the Villa, in the part originally used as a Farm, this large suite features an authentic rural architecture, made of intimate and cozy spaces, reinterpreted in a contemporary key through the use of furnishings and architectural elements of décor. Access to the suite is from the East side of the villa, through a staircase in ancient local marble, contained by two hand-made brick walls, cleverly cleaned and treated with natural waxes. From the staircase guests then enter a large living room boasting an original nineteenth-century exposed roof, with glimpses of light coming from the hill above. Three double bedrooms with en-suite bathroom, a kitchen, a study overlook the living room and, through a hallway, guests can directly access the olive grove and two private small terraces. All the rooms are characterized by an exposed roof – original from the 19th century – in chestnut beams and terracotta bricks.

The Suite’s walls are made of pure natural lime plaster with very coarse grain, interspersed with new smooth masonry parts, in natural clays colors. Floors are in solid oak. Furnishings are on exclusive design. In the large living room a steel and elm wood fireplace occupies an entire wall; the furnishings are completed by a three-seater sofa and an Americanmade chaise-longue from the 60s. A 50s Venini chandelier hangs from the ceiling. All the rooms in the Suite have double-layered chestnut wood and terracotta bricks ceilings. A long work of restoration and consolidation has allowed the maintenance of the original structures. The suite has three double bedrooms with en-suite bathroom: the two southward rooms have a beautiful sea view and one, in the corner, frames the surrounding vineyard hills to the East. This room has a study with a sofa bed for exclusive use. Particular care has been given to the interior architecture of the bathrooms, with the use of marble from the Apuan Alps in large size slabs and carved marble sinks. Antique carpets and a collection of original prints from various eras complete the decoration. A kettle with tea and coffee kits and cups is at the guests’ disposal.
