Montaperti is a typical 19th-century villa set on the top of a hill in the countryside of Volterra. The entire area features a most characteristic landscape in which rolling hills cultivated with cereals map out sinuous patterns that captivate the fantasy of keen photographers. Before us, against the background of this stunning panorama, we can see the Etruscan city of Volterra, and the sun going down behind it offers a uniquely magnificent spectacle. Holidays in this villa are conceived for groups of friends who like to alternate periods of relaxation with excursions to some of the most beautiful places in this part of Tuscany. As well as the city of Volterra steeped in its Etruscan past, San Gimignano with its towers is also within extremely easy reach. In Volterra visitors have no choice but to buy a reproduction of the famous Etruscan statuette called the Ombra della Sera (Shadow of the Evening) which will remain a permanent reminder of your holiday after you return home.
