About this castle / palace rental
VILLA TENSI - GROSSETO AREA
Located in the Grossetto area of Tuscany, Villa Tensi is perched on a high promontory, with wonderful views of the picturesque coastline stretching from Punta Ala to Castiglione dell Pescaia. Originally built by the Medici family in the mid-1500s, this castle has undergone complete modernization, featuring amenities such as a private swimming pool and easy access to a secluded beach. The villa is within easy walking distance of shops and restaurants and is close to a bustling harbour and golf course in the popular tourist resort of Punta Ala.
Villa Tensi develops over three levels and the villa includes an outbuilding and a separate lounge area for two live-in staff (an on-site housekeeper and gardener). Guests also have access to our chef, who is ready to prepare traditional Italian lunches and dinners.
The villa consists of a comfortable lounge (with sofas, and TV), a dining room (with dining table for 10 people), a billiard room and a well-equipped kitchen.
