Overview
Villa Il Borro is the most elegant of the Il Borro sumptuous villas. Dating back to the second half of the nineteenth century, the building has been completely restored and towers above the small medieval village.
Constructed in 1848 by Prince Hohenlohe, the Il Borro villa has lived a long history and moments of splendor, but also great aesthetic decline. Left in a state of abandon after the second world war, today it has been restored to its original beauty and given a new life. From the splendid architecture, typical of the residences dating from the ‘800’s, the villa has been refined with infinite romantic details. A traditional Italian garden surrounds the villa and in the center of the flower filled garden is a gorgeous ornate fountain. The staff provides impeccable service from the moment you arrive and each morning you will wake to the scent of freshly baked croissants.
Telling its stories, a place becomes part of those stories. The legend takes on a life beyond the place and becomes timeless.The origins of the village of Il Borro are lost in the history of medieval Tuscany and the famous people who established the reputation of the region. Every alley, every stone speaks of a time that once was, of flavors and scents that recall the memory of a rare and more authentic Tuscany. Surrounded by vineyards and olive groves, in the shadow of the cypress trees of the ancient Via dei Sette Ponti, (an area rich in art and culture between the three main cities of Tuscany Florence, Arezzo and Siena), Il Borro is an open window on history, a fresco to a far away world.
The Medici dynasty, the Savoia family and now the Ferragamo family have safeguarded and preserved this precious oasis, making this place, suspended between past and present, a sanctuary dedicated to well being and the art of hospitality.
You are welcome – one thousand years of history are waiting for you!
