Melograno Apartment – Historic Tower Room & Panoramic Views | Chianti Holiday Stay
Experience the magic of Tuscany at Melograno Apartment (56 m²), one of the most unique accommodations in the historic Pieve di San Martino in Colle Val d’Elsa.
Part of this apartment’s charm comes from its “tower room”, a double bedroom located inside the oldest part of the Pieve — originally a medieval watchtower. Accessible via a charming wooden staircase, this space offers breathtaking views over the Val d’Elsa and an unforgettable stay steeped in history.
🏰 History, Character & Comfort
Located on the first floor, Melograno welcomes you via an ancient stone staircase leading into the dining-living room, where an entire wall is made from the original bicrome masonry of the old Pieve — a stunning architectural detail that makes this home truly one-of-a-kind.
The apartment includes:
- Two double bedrooms, one in the historic tower and one on the main level
- A fully equipped kitchen for cooking with local ingredients
- A modern bathroom with shower
- Outdoor seating area with table, chairs, and umbrella right outside the entrance, perfect for morning coffee or evening wine
For larger groups, Melograno can connect internally to the Fiordaliso Apartment, making it ideal for families or friends who want to enjoy both privacy and shared moments.
