A single center stairway of dazzling glass mosaic tile descends into the pool, which spills seamlessly toward the valley below. This valley is alive with mustard in the spring, which gives way to deep greens of early summer and then waves of golden wheat as the seasons change. Beyond, the lights of cozy and ancient hill towns are reflected, Mensano and Casole d’Elsa. Life here at Casale San Tommaso moves gracefully and effortlessly, just as it has for centuries.
Casale San Tommaso is a reconstruction in the classic Tuscan style and enjoys a central location on the estate. It is a comfortable stroll along the meadow to the Castello di Casole hotel for a morning espresso, lunch on the terrace or a spa treatment. The private hiking, biking and horseback riding trails that weave through the estate are accessed in the forest in front of the residence. Along the way one is certain to see the ever-present deer and colorful pheasant.
