Il Mulino
A Hidden Sanctuary by the River
Il Mulino is a beautifully restored former watermill, now transformed into an elegant countryside retreat surrounded by forest and the gentle sound of flowing water.
Set in a peaceful and secluded area between Arezzo and Siena, the villa offers absolute privacy, timeless charm, and a deep sense of connection with nature.
The restoration has preserved the original character of the building — stone walls, wooden beams, and terracotta floors — while adding refined contemporary interiors and modern comforts. The result is a warm, welcoming atmosphere that combines Tuscan authenticity with understated elegance.
The property consists of two separate buildings — the main villa and a guest house — each with spacious living areas and fully equipped kitchens. The five double bedrooms, all with private bathrooms, are tastefully furnished in a classic Tuscan style with natural fabrics and soft tones.
Il Mulino can be rented in different configurations: guests may choose to rent only the main villa with three bedrooms, or include the guest house for a total of five bedrooms. This flexibility makes it ideal for both smaller groups and larger families seeking more space and privacy.
Outside, the former water reservoir has been transformed into a stunning infinity pool surrounded by forest and open sky. The tranquil riverside setting makes Il Mulino a unique and inspiring place to unwind, ideal for families or groups of friends looking for a private hideaway in the heart of Tuscany.
Why I love it
Il Mulino is the Perfect Blend of Tuscan Authenticity and Elegant Comfort.
I love how it feels completely immersed in nature — private, peaceful, and deeply relaxing — with the river flowing just below the terrace.
The infinity pool built where the old mill’s reservoir once stood is extraordinary: a unique place to swim, read, or simply enjoy the silence of the forest.
It’s a rare retreat for those seeking privacy, style, and an authentic countryside experience in one of Tuscany’s most beautiful corners.
