Whispering Water – A Pair of Beautifully Restored Miller’s Cottages in the Heart of Northern Tuscany

Welcome to Whispering Water, a unique retreat nestled in the wooded hills of Coreglia Antiminelli. These two beautifully refurbished 18th-century miller’s cottages are set beside a crystal-clear mountain stream, surrounded by chestnut trees, ancient stone terraces, and serene mountain views. Let exclusively as a pair, (both included in the price) the cottages offer complete privacy, peace, and immersion in nature – yet are within easy walking distance (1.5km) of the charming medieval village, with a couple of restaurants, bars, shops, and a pharmacy.

The Setting
Originally built in the 1700s, Whispering Water is a living piece of Tuscan heritage. The River Segone flows through the garden, bringing coolness and calm year-round. A natural spring just behind the property supplies pure mountain water for drinking, the swimming pool, and even the showers – its gentle whisper threading through the grounds and providing a deeply soothing soundtrack to your stay.

The cottages are surrounded by developing vineyards, walking trails, and breathtaking scenery. Whether you're looking for romance, relaxation, or a base for adventure, this property offers it all.
