One-Off Feature

A beautifully preserved and sensitively converted medieval tower dating back to 1350, 3km from one of the most picturesque villages in Romagna, Italy.  Sleeping up to eight people, this historic tower house is the ultimate retreat for those looking for peace and tranquility, surrounded by rolling hills and beautiful landscapes.

General Info

The Battagli Tower stands on the banks of the Marecchia River to protect the Tomba de’ Battagli farm.  It was built in 1229 by Balduccio Battagli, is 22m high and adorned with Ghibelline battlements.  It is located halfway between the sea of the Rimini Riviera and the castles of the Marecchia Valley.

The Area Surrounding The Property / Accommodation

The tower is in a very peaceful and rural setting but is not totally remote, as there is a small grocery store, traditional bakery, post office and pharmacy very nearby.  Within 1km you will also find a selection of excellent restaurants, a riding school and a golf club.  The nearest town is Santarcangelo di Romagna.  The tower is well located for inland excursions, and there’s no shortage of opportunities for hiking, biking and horseback riding in the vicinity.  300m from the tower is the cycle trail along the river, from where you can access Rimini, the sea of the Riviera Romagnola, and the many castles and villages of the Marecchia Valley.  There is a bus stop 800m away.  Rimini is a 10 minute drive and San Marino a 20 minute drive.

The tower has been charmingly and simply renovated, ensuring the sense of history is retained.  It is laid out across four floors.  The ground floor is home to the kitchen with its vaulted ceiling, terracotta floor dating back to the 1600s, wood stove and large table with chairs.  It’s well equipped with crockery, cutlery, basic appliances including fridge, freezer, gas stove and stainless steel oven.  The living room is on the first floor with its wooden beams, fireplace and large windows overlooking the garden.  The sofa in here can convert into a sofa bed if additional sleeping space is required.  The main bedroom with its wrought iron bed and an ensuite bedroom (bath and shower) is on the second floor, along with a washing machine and tumble dryer.  There is another double bedroom on the third floor with a cast iron claw foot bath, and a wooden staircase leads from here to the loft with a French bed and a single bed.  The loft room leads out to the roof terrace. The house is furnished with antique wooden furniture throughout.  The iron spiral staircase leads from one floor to the next.  The house has wifi, but no TV.

Exterior Details
The tower has a roof terrace with stunning 360 degree sweeping views from the sea to the valleys.  Complete with table, chairs and sun loungers, the terrace is a perfect spot for a sunset aperitif or to relax under starry skies.  At ground level you’ll find a pretty garden, perfect for a BBQ with friends (BBQ provided), or to sit under the pomegranate  trees to read and enjoy the sounds of nature.
