Villa Emma is a classic example of a country residence of the tuscan nobility of the 18th century.
The villa was created for the florentine aristocratic family called Ristori in the first half of the 1700s who wanted a summer retreat to recover their spirits in the peace and quiet of the countryside.

It stands on a hill dominating the enchanting medieval village of Lucignano, and lies on its own, surrounded by the vegetation of the old grounds of 3 hectacres. It has recently undergone a careful renovation, which has wisely maintained the internal layout, which offers spaces full of light, with frescoes on the ceilings and large windows.

It lies on 3 floors and can accommodate up to 18 people in 9 bedrooms, each with its own bathroom (one of which is accessible for the disabled). On the third floor are three suites (a King suite with sitting-room and reading-room, a Queen Suite with jacuzzi and a Junior Suite with modern furnishings), with a marvellous view of the swimming-pool and of the village of Lucignano.

It has pleasant, comfortable furnishings: each floor has a large living-room, and the main kitchen is on the ground floor and has a large fireplace along with the latest modern appliances.

In the grounds is a nice swimming-pool (15mx8m) with a gazebo furnished for dining outside and there are several other areas for relaxing outside.

The villa is in a good position for sightseeing trips to virtually anywhere in Italy. In particular all of the best-known places in Tuscany and Umbria can be reached in less than an hour (Florence, Arezzo, San Gimignano, Siena, Cortona, Montalcino, Assisi and Lake Trasimeno). Rome by car takes just 2 hours.

Due to the spacious areas available both outside and inside the villa is also suitable for weddings, anniversaries or other kinds of festivities.
