Beautiful restored 3 bedroom farmhouse near San Gimignano
Located in the 'Parco Benestare', an area of outstanding natural beauty in the communes of Gambassi Terme and Montaione, Podere Collinella is ideally situated in a beautiful rural location with fabulous panoramic 360 degree views. The villa is a renovated 16th century converted farmhouse with a light & open feel. It has all 21st century amenities with well equipped bathrooms & kitchen and bespoke locally made furniture. The large shared pool (open 1 June-30 Sept) is a 50 metres walk away and boasts stunning views over classic Tuscan landscape. The property is attached to another but has an independent pathway, gardens and entrances. The west facing sun terrace is completely away from the adjoining property, the east facing patio has a dividing 2 metre high bamboo cane screen separating it from the adjoining property. Both patios are covered and having dining tables and chairs. The medieval hill towns of Volterra & San Gimignano are both 20 minutes by car and are perfect for sight seeing, shopping or dining out. The nearest village Il Castagno is only a 5 minute drive away and provides a local restaurant. Siena, Pisa, Florence or sandy Mediterranean beaches are all just 1 hour away by car (Florence is also accessible by train from nearby Castelfiorentino). The farmhouse is surrounded by olive groves & woodland and accessed along its own private road. Please note that due to its rural location car hire is essential.
We loved everything about the villa and all it has to offer. Steve (property manager) was really helpful all through the booking process and during our stay. The surroundings, the views, the quietness, the beautiful towns to visit in an hour radius from the villa cannot be matched. We highly recommend the villa!
Ganz ganz liebe zuvorkommende Verwalter, die sich rĂŒhrend um den Gast kĂŒmmern. Ein herrlich toskanisches Fleckchen Erde in bester Umgebung und mit ganz viel Charme. Es passte alles und wir können uns gut vorstellen, wieder zu kommen. Absolut empfehlenswert
Overall the villa was ok kitchen cleanliness was poor. It was stated access road was rough just not how rough, be prepared and take your fly spray and go food shopping before arrival as nearest shop is about 8km and not brilliant, so all in all we would not book this villa again. There is no mention of the large plastic that covers the arch door so this cannot be used. We will be sending a full review to Steve Pitts the Property manager with further photo's.
We had a wonderful stay and this property provided a nice central location from which to explore the region. Information from Steve was timely and extremely helpful.
The villa is in a lovely location with stunning views across Tuscan countryside and mountains. Some great sunsets while barbecuing in the evening. It was very comfortable and the air conditioning in the bedrooms was great and essential during a very hot August. It was smaller than we expected, fine for the two of us but would have been quite crowded with 4 or 6. The swimming pool was lovely but was shared with more villas than we had expected, not a problem in the morning or late evening but could be quite crowded in the afternoon.
Steve was a terrific host, always responding quickly before and during our stay and offering good advice on restaurants and other issues.
Overall a great spot for a relaxing week or two.
We stayed as a family of five and really enjoyed it. The farm house is lovely and well equipped, the location is great in the middle of the countryside. The separation of the kids (upstairs) and parents is a clear plus as is the air conditioning during hot Italian summer. The pool is close by and large enough to actually swim (or play). You can almost always a bit of shade on one of the two patios.
All the attractions of Tuscany are within easy car reach.
Mooi complex met vakantiehuisjes met gemeenschappelijk zwembad. Prachtig huisje met rondom uitzicht op de Toscaanse heuvels, lekker weg van de drukte.
Auto is wel noodzakelijk; dichtstbijzijnde winkel is ca. 30 minuten rijden
Prettige ligging. Fijn terras in de schaduw en wind. Twee minpunten: wifi beloofd super wn snel. In werkelijkheid dramatisch; zeer slechte wifi, als hett werkte super traag. Geen 4 of 5G.
Afstand naar dichtstbijzijnde supermarkt 25 min enkele reis
absolutely fantastic place with well-kept garden and clean houses. The pool area was just as beautiful as shown in the photos. We had a wonderful time with the children.
Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit in der Toskana,Haus und Ausstattung Tipp Topp, bei Fragen war unser Ansprechpartner Steve jederzeit erreichbar und hat sofort geantwortet und konnte immer weiterhelfen! Das Carepacket als Willkommensgruss war erstklassig! Einfach toll alles organisiert! Toller Urlaub
The property exceeded our expectations. The villa was clean, well prepped and we did not encounter issues. The scenery was better than in the photos and the guides given to us by the host led us to some delicious meals. We spent a great deal of time sitting outside. The amenities in the house made everything easy. Beds were clean and comfortable. Highly recommend.
Really nice property in the middle of Tuscany between amazing landscape. Therefore, however, not easy to reach with every car because of a long and gravel path. The manager is friendly and always available in case of questions.
Beautiful setting in the country. Not exactly easy to get to since the access road is filled with pot holes, cows and very bumpy. A solid 10 minute drive off main paved road to get to Villa.
Host was accomadating but a lot went wrong. It wasnât occupied for over a month and we were greeted with water on floor in kitchen unknowing of source. Water heater never worked so we had cold showers throughout week. And then our neighbors(cows) came through property overnight and made quite a mess. Apparently this is unusual but may want to disclose so guests know.
Steve our host was great but someone else opened property and heat wasnât on even though they knew are arrival time. Having a little one it would have been nice to have the house already at a reasonable temp before overnight temps made for a rough start.
Would recommend but hopeful this feedback
Benefits others. Suggest leaving directions for hot water and dishwasher in other languages.
This was our first trip to Italy. This property is centrally located so made it super nice to have one location to tour from without having to move our luggage all around. Our flight was late getting in so it was after 10 pm when we arrived on the property and it was a bit intimidating arriving in the dark and not knowing exactly where we were going. The villa was very comfortable and the views were amazing. The Property Manager was quick to respond to any of my questions prior to our arrival and during our stay. I canât imagine a better property or location for the money. We would definitely consider staying again.
Die Unterkunft besticht vor allem durch die traumhafte Lage.
Einrichtung hat alles was man fĂŒr den Aufenthalt benötigt.
Checkin mit sehr ausfĂŒhrlicher Beschreibung des Vermieters.
Wir sind rundum begeistert !
Our group of four seniors thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. We stayed for five nights and managed to have lunch and dinner at a different spot every night within a reasonable driving distance. The property has stunning views and we spent a lot of time sitting outside with a glass of wine, just soaking it all in. Would highly recommend.
Da wir erst Ende August, Anfang September dort waren, waren wenig andere GĂ€ste vor Ort und wir hatten den Pool fast fĂŒr uns alleine đ
Das Ferienhaus ist zentral gelegen, bis nach Pisa, nach Florenz oder auch an die KĂŒste sind es nur 1 - 1,5 Std. Das Ferienhaus war sauber und es war alles vorhanden, was man benötigt. Wir lieben die ruhige Lage und hatten eine tolle Zeit.
