This recently renovated spectacular villa is set in the hillsides close to Arezzo and is majestic.
It got its name from the truffle estate surrounding the villa, making it famous in the area and wonderful for seeing how truffles are found and of course how to prepare these in many wonderful dishes.

The original villa dates back to before 1700 and we suspect it was a chapel and over the centuries pieces have been added on as the community grew
