Pleasantly situated in the hills of the Mugello near the Bilancino Lake, Villa Le Maschere was the subject of a 5 year-long restoration and has been reborn as a 5-star resort. Le Maschere is a place of great historical and architectural value, but with its special emphasis on contemporary interior design it is also a superb expression of the world-famous ‘Made in Italy’.
Past and present, tradition and innovation, characterise the villa’s strong personality. Perrywinkle-violet coloured fittings, a colour much loved by the lords and ladies of the eighteenth century, venetian style floors, glass and gold leaf tiles, stone pastes of coloured cement and majolica inspired by the early twentieth century, all fuse harmoniously in the Villa’s contemporary interiors.
Nature and art, water and silence, are the magical backdrop to the 65 bedrooms and suites and the 8 events rooms. These rooms sit in the midst of a romantic park of park of 18 hectares dotted with sequoia and rare trees, alongside an Italian-style garden and two pools (one of which is heated).
