Description
The 14th century, when this strip of land near Arezzo, which marked the border between the two Italies, the Lombard and the Byzantine, saw the construction of an imposing square building dominated by a mighty tower at about 570 metres above sea level.
La Torre di Vignale, with its distant military origins, still witnessed today by traces of battlements and a few embrasures, has been renovated, has regained the importance and charm of the past, standing out again majestically among dense forests of oak and chestnut trees and ready to welcome you, perfect for groups of families or friends who want a relaxing holiday in contact with nature.
The house is surrounded by a large and panoramic garden, full of flowers and equipped with a very special pergola, made in the old pigsty, with wooden table and benches and coloured cushions. At your disposal there is also a barbecue and a wood-burning oven placed not far from the pergola, a perfect corner for your dinners and barbecues with family and friends.
At the edge of the garden, on a terrace in a dominant position with respect to the house and the valley below, you will find the beautiful swimming pool (size 9x9 m - depth 1.20-2.20 m - open from 01st May to 30th September), equipped with sunbeds and a wooden gazebo, if you prefer to enjoy it sheltered from the hot summer sun.
La Torre di Vignale offers its visitors a charm of other times and a delightful hospitality, even your small size four-legged friends are welcome here. Also the furnishings, comfortable and rational, with warm and welcoming colours, are for the most part composed of antique furniture that contribute to giving the house a very special fascination.
Paola, the owner, with her kindness and courtesy will make you feel immediately at home. You will instantly became friends with her and she will be a fundamental reference point for your holiday. Do not forget to ask her to prepare you some of her typical Tuscan dishes, our word, you will not regret it!

A perfect place to take your family
A perfect place to take your family. We were eight adults and four children, and we all enjoyed the house, the pool and the area around.
Perfect to spend a special time
We had an absolutely beautiful time here. Paola, the owner, was so friendly! Sometimes a bit hard to understand in Italian, but an overflow of cheer and friendliness makes up for that one. Also, we booked a dinner for 9 people which was better than I could have expected - easy to ask for vegetarian/vegan options and just so many delicious dishes that we could have rolled to bed! Would recommend this to everyone looking to spend a special time with loved ones.
We have been there 4 times!!!
Hi Michela thank you for everything, we were very happy with our stay. We are also very happy with the very good customer service from you too :-) We were very happy with the house and help from Paola and Marco as well! They prepared for us great food and wine. Especially the pizza. We would like to come back on holiday to the house, we have been there 4 times now!!!
An absolute gem
An absolute gem. Beautiful place, beautiful hosts. Great for traveling with the extended family.
We had the best vacation!
We have for the second time had the best vacation in Torre di Vignale. The rooms are beautiful, the surroundings too, and Paola makes the best food. We were 14 people of all ages and everyone enjoyed the holiday.
We loved it!
We spent a week at Torre di Vignale and loved it. Everything was as advertised. Beautiful garden, immaculate interiors, fully equipped kitchen, outdoor patio with barbecue and of course the gorgeous swimmingpool! The views over the surrounding landscape are fantastic. As most other reviewers has mentioned the drive up to the house may seem intimidating at first try but you get used to it, just don’t attempt it with a sports car! The owner and host Paola is wonderfull, charming and helpfull (although her English skills are close to zero, but that is made up by her great attitude). She even prepared a lovely 4 course dinner for our party of 14 at a very reasonable price. The walk down to the village is about 25min (and 35min back up the hill). The village has a couple of trattorias pizzerias, pharmacy, ATM machine and a small alimentari.
My second holiday at Torre del Vignale
Det var anden gang, jeg holdt ferie på Torre del Vignale, og denne gang kom jeg med hele min familie bestående af i alt 15 mennesker mellem 78 år til 3 mdr. gammel. Huset er som skabt til vores store familie, alle var lykkelige over præcist deres værelse, nogle var så begejstrede, at de råbte, at de "bare ville have dette hus!!!" Vores aftale med Paola gik helt fint, hun lavede mand på det tidspunkt, der passede os bedst og det antal retter, vi mente ville være passende. Derudover er hun et sødt og herligt menneske. Vedligeholdelsesstanden i huset er fin, dejlige badeværelser og godt køkken (når man har lært at betjene gaskomfuret!). Kort sagt: alle 15 NØD at være i huset og benytte os af alle dets faciliteter. Børnene især poolen.Rose Marie på 7 hulkede, da hun rejste derfra. ************* This was my second holiday at Torre del Vignale, and this time I came with my whole family consisting of a total of 15 people between 78 years to 3 months old. The house is perfect for our large family, everyone was happy with their exact room, some were so excited that they shouted that they "just wanted this house!!!" Our appointment with Paola went perfectly well, she cooked at the time that suited us best and the number of dishes we thought would be appropriate. In addition, she is a sweet and lovely person. The state of maintenance of the house is fine, nice bathrooms and a good kitchen (once you've learnt how to use the gas cooker!). In short: all 15 of us ENJOYED being in the house and making use of all its facilities. The kids especially the pool. Rose Marie aged 7 sobbed when she left.
Meravigliosa dimora
Soddisfatti del soggiorno in questa meravigliosa dimora. Un grazie a Paola per la sua disponibilità e la sua gentilezza.
