Bellevue

BELLEVUE is located in an excellent position overlooking the fabulous landscape which makes up Tuscany. Luscious green foothills leading up to peaks of over 1600 meters are the perfect backdrop to someone who wishes to immerse themselves in silence, far from the busy world around them, kick back and relax - soaking up some warm sun and dozing to the song of chirping birds and crickets.
