Two Towers Estate

Located in the heart of the Florentine countryside, just a short distance from the serene hills of Chianti, lies Two Towers Estate part of the historic estate which dates back to the Renaissance, acquired by Salvatore and Wanda Ferragamo in the 1950s. This tranquil oasis offers guests a blend of privacy, peace, and splendid ambiance, nestled within untouched natural beauty. The estate elegantly combines timeless elegance with modern comforts across its accommodations, including the family-oriented Two Towers Estate.
Situated in the heart of Tuscany and showing signs of habitation since Roman times, the settlement, once under the dominion of the Counts Guidi in the 13th century, faced numerous conflicts that led to its decline. Florence took control in the 15th century, leading to division and changes in ownership until the Medici-Tornaquinci and later the Martelli family acquired it. The Ferragamo family purchased this estate in 1950, initiating extensive restorations to return it to its original splendour, making it a beloved summer retreat and gathering spot.

Two Towers Estate is distinguished by its two iconic turrets, offering expansive, well-lit interiors meticulously arranged for comfort and style. The ground floor features a utility bathroom, a spacious kitchen, and a dual-purpose living room with areas dedicated to relaxation and dining, complemented by a loggia designed for al fresco lounging and dining under the stars. The upper floor houses four double bedrooms with private bathrooms. The villa's attic provides an extra bedroom with a private bathroom and stunning panoramic views. Encircled by its own garden, complete with an infinity pool, Two Towers Estate commands impressive vistas of the Tuscan landscape. For larger groups, the nearby Two Towers Cottage, a tastefully restored barn, offers three double bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, accommodating additional guests.

Guests can engage in yoga classes, breath-work, and guided meditation amidst the tranquil greens of the Tuscan countryside. Guests also have the option to arrange for in-room massages and bespoke wellness therapies, tailored to their needs by the skilled professionals at Spa La Corte.
