This is a perfect villa in a perfect location. The interior is excellently equipped and is very comfortable and spacious, and the multiple external relaxing/dining areas are ideal for enjoying the incredible views in every direction, whilst the large pool is perfect for cooling off from the summer sun. The whole villa was spotlessly clean and tidy, and the gardens were beautifully maintained. Luigi provided very helpful information about the villa and surrounding area in advance of our arrival, and was regularly keeping in touch during our stay to ensure that everything was to our satisfaction. We enjoyed the most amazing two weeks in this fantastic villa, and we would not hesitate to return if we get the chance to do so again in future. Thank you, Luigi.
First, I was concerned we would be a little out of the way, and the good news is that we were. The views from the house are tremendous, and there are three towns within 10 minutes with a few lovely restaurants. These towns are charming and are not swarmed over with tourists. But if you want the crowds, Pienza and Matacino are within 20-30 minutes and there are a ton of other lovely well known cities like Cortona and Maltapuciano less than an hour away. Walking the gravel road that the house is on is 2.5 miles round trip, and a lovely walk with perfect vistas and grazing sheep. The landscaping around the house is elegant (although I would like to see the hedge around the pool trimmed a little lower as it does block a little of the view when in a lounge chair). The house is roomy and well furnished, although the kitchen is a bit small. The one criticism I would give, is that if we were a larger party, the out door seating is very limited. It really needs a comfortable sitting set with more than four seats both on the patio as well as next to the pool. But I would highly recommend the house, and would come back without hesitation.
Spectacular villa on hilltop surrounded by acres of well maintained gardens and pool area.
The villa is huge and well appointed with anything you could imagine There are two large dining rooms inside and several well appointed outside patio areas. The bucolic setting includes birds , roaming sheep down the hill meandering from field to field. Couldnât be more restful! Also close enough to Siena , San gimingnano Assisi for day trips and even Florence Will definitely return.
We absolutely loved our stay at this villa! It was just wonderful, and Luigi was a fantastic host! The views from every part of the villa are amazing! It was so fun to see all of the sheep each morning and watch the sunset in the evenings. We were fortunate enough to be in town for the olive festival in Montisi, the quaint little village just a few miles away. We had a blast! The recommended chef who cooked for us at the villa, Giancarlo from the Tuscan Chef, was incredible! What a fantastic recommendation! We also loved the food in town at Cantina 97. It was awesome! We hope that we can come back to this special villa again someday!
We were a group of 4 couples and found there was plenty of room for all of us. The property as better in person than we had expected. We had a car so it was really easy to get around and see all the towns nearby. Very beautiful property with great vistas. So relaxing to hang out at the pool or the deck.
