The hosts Elena and Fabio were both so welcoming and hospitable. They were immediately available for any questions and also suggestions of the local area. The property is so centrally located with incredible views of three destinations right from the villa! It was so easy to get around Tuscany. Montechiello was just 5 minutes away and was so charming. Also, has some amazing Michelin rated restaurants. The villa was spacious and very accommodating. We certainly hope to come back someday and would never want to stay anywhere else!

Always there when you need them without intruding. Delightful villa surrounded by fruit and nut trees. The figs, apples and almonds were in season during our stay and if you ever pick and eat a fig from a tree the days of ever buying them at a supermarket are over. The villa is set high on a hill overlooking the tuscan countryside and across at Monticchiello itself. Easy access to the surrounding villages. Our favorite spot however was sunset at the front, sipping some wine and watching the mountain towns light up and twinkle accross the hills. ##### Deirdre C.

This is the 2nd time I have stayed in this beautiful home. Elena and Fabio are wonderful!! They make us feel like part of their family. The views of the countryside from their perch atop the hill are simply spectacular. And the property is very conveniently located, only a 20 minute drive to Piena or Montepulciano, and a little father to Montalcino; and only 3 minutes to the charming village of Montecchiello. The picturesque swimming pool provides a great break after long days exploring the Tuscan Hill towns. This truly is a wonderful property, and I hope I can return.

The children loved the pool and the house is brilliantly spacious, having three bathrooms which was excellent. All the bathrooms are well equipped, with space for all your toiletries and makeup. Absolutely the best pool of any house we've rented via VRBO. The kitchen has everything you need to cook, and it was very kind of Elena to provide washing liquid, detergent etc for the appliances which meant we did not have to purchase everything! Montichiello has all the basic things you need too, we loved having a drink at La Guardiola and dinner at La Porta was lovely. Elena and Fabio are a lovely couple who looked after us very well. Thank you for providing a wonderful holiday house with such a picturesque location! ##### Melissa L. Stayed 7 nights in Jul 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paul A. Jul 10, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### We had an amazing time at this very special place This is a very special place, was by far one of the most enjoyable weeks we have ever had travelling and was the highlight of our trip to Italy. Elena and Fabio were great hosts, gave us some great tips and recommendations and we appreciated the opportunity to practise our Italian with this cheerful couple. The home suited our family of four perfectly, was well stocked with daily staples and the location of the home was perfect for us as it allowed us to do daytrips to a number of wonderful locations. It was close enough to walk into the great little hilltop town of Monticchielo, which we did on a number of occasions. Our boys loved the big private pool which was refreshing on the hot days and looked out over the valley and out to the town. All the views from the property were absolutely stunning as there is a near 360 degree view over the Tuscan countryside and you look right onto one of the iconic cypress lined winding roads we've seen in so many photos. We loved our time here and won't hesitate to recommend this place to our friends and we will definitely be returning. Thank you so much Elena and Fabio. ##### Paul A.

Jun 19, 2017 #### A perfect place and a wonderful experience This charming farm house was the perfect match! We were exploring Tuscany at the beginning of June 2017 and found the ideal place to stay – an old farm house at Monticchiello close to wonderful historic cities/villages, wine-growing regions and wellness/thermal areas (Montalcino, Pienza or Montepulciano just 10-20 mins. driving, Siena or Orvieto approx. 1 hour, thermal baths/springs e.g. Bagno Vignone or Bagno San Filippo approx. 25 mins.). Our hosts Elena and Fabio were just lovely, very welcoming and kind. They provided valuable tips and recommendations about the region, restaurants or places to visit. We loved the calm, relaxed and private atmosphere - and of course the phenomenal view. The property is very well-maintained, we enjoyed the large pool, the well-equipped kitchen and were very thankful of the window/fly-screens in sleeping and bath rooms ;o) Elena & Fabio, many thanks for a wonderful time! ##### Kirsten S.

The house lies just outside the small village of Monticchiello overlooking the town and the via dei cipressi - arguably the prettiest road in Tuscany. The road to the house is a Strada Bianca and quite steep, so be prepared for some dust and rattling. Elena greeted us and showed us the house enthusiastically. Although English was limited, we communicated without problems. The rooms are large and although not air conditioned, the stone walls and nighttime breezes kept temperatures comfortable (we stayed there during a fortnight with daytime temperatures in the 97-100F range). The swimming pool was a great boon. The kitchen was well equipped and a washing machine made it easy to keep clothes clean. Internet was sufficient for most things (and let’s face it, you’re not here to be gaming!). Pienza and Montepulciano are both visible from the house and about 15 minutes away. We would definitely stay here again. Mille grazie Elena e Fabio! ##### Marko R. Stayed 13 nights in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marie K.

Perched above the village of Montechiello, overlooking one of the most photographed, Cyprus-lined, twisting roads in Tuscany, this lovely farmhouse is taken care of by Elena and Fabio; who also took wonderful care of my husband, 13-year-old son and me during our four-night stay. We were welcomed with coffee-cake for our first morning which we ate in Elena’s beautiful garden surrounding the house which had been her grandmother’s. The next afternoon we were met with fresh-picked cherries from Elena’s sister’s garden. We enjoyed the cherries pool-side as the heat had climbed in Tuscany to unusual temps. We traveled out in the mornings to Cortona (45 minute drive) or Montepulciano (25 minute drive), got take-out pizza from a shop Fabio recommended or wine tasted at the nearby Pulciano winery and enjoyed the area’s famous Pecorino with a glass of wine once happily back at Collosodo. After the heat of the day, a trip to Piensa for dinner was perfect but so was the dinner in Montechiello where we could look back up the hill and enjoy seeing where we’d been sitting only an hour earlier. We loved our stay and only wish it could be longer. We will definitely be back and feel lucky to have found this Tuscan gem. ##### Marie K.

We are joining the chorus of other reviewers who have raved about their stay at Collosodo. My husband and I stayed for nearly a month and loved it. The house feels like home and Elena and Fabio couldn’t be more gracious. They live on the other side of the house and take meticulous care of the house and the grounds, which include the lovely pool. They were around and checked in regularly to make sure everything was okay but were also considerate of our privacy and so were never intrusive. But because they were around, unlike other VRBO rentals that we’ve had where the owners lived far away, they were readily available with friendly smiles and attended to any minor issues that arose. They also gave us great tips for eating out and places to visit and shop for food. The house is very comfortable with a nice size kitchen that is well outfitted. It was great to arrive and have eggs and juice in the fridge and pastries on the counter along with all of the necessary staples in the cabinets. There is plenty of space in the bathrooms for toiletries, lots of blankets in the closets (although we never needed them) and plenty of fresh towels every week. I combed every review before I arrived and no one mentioned the beds. So I’m adding that they are firm and provide good back support. Most of all, the views are absolutely sensational! A painter, I came with the intention of painting the scenery in the area. I painted everyday from the yard! Grazie mille Elena e Fabio! ##### Jean L. Stayed 28 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mecsi A. Sep 19, 2018 #### Lovely Place This property is a very nice way to spend some time in Tuscany. It is well situated near several notable hill towns (Pienza, Montepulciano, Montalcino, Bagno Vignoni, and Siena to name a few), keeping in mind that "near" in Tuscany parlance (i.e. you can see your intended destination from where you are), might still mean a 30-40 min drive to get there (windy roads, some unpaved). You MUST have a car. The dwelling is a well maintained farm house. It is not a castle. It is however charming and cozy and rustic and reasonably well appointed. The hot water is hot. We opened the windows at night and slept like the dead. The hosts live in the attached house next door. We didn't require much from them as I had been to the area before, but they were charming and helpful when needed, and responded to my email queries prior to our stay very quickly. The property is typical of the area. Situated near the top of a hill, with a sweeping view of the surrounding countryside. The outdoor space is comfortable, and we made breakfast every morning (the kitchen could accommodate a more elaborate meal as well) and ate outside under some nice tall trees while watching the morning light envelop the surrounding hills. There are far worse ways to start your day. Remember to get provisions for cooking and snacking while you're out, as there are no 7-Elevens nearby and ordering delivery is not a thing. The Conad in Montepulciano is a large supermarket and there are several smaller COOP supermarkets in the area as well. The pool is quite nice and would serve a larger party well, but we didn't have much time to use it. There is a barbeque grill and charcoal available, but we just had some wine and cheese while sitting outdoors. I highly recommend that very simple and peaceful activity to remind you why you came to Tuscany in the first place. Overall, a very nice and pleasant place to stay. ##### Mecsi A.

Bien située dans un décor de rêve avec comme vue Monticchiello, Montepulciano et Pienza. Aurait besoin de quelques améliorations mais rien de vraiment dérangeant et qui ont été compensées par une réponse très rapide de Fabio le gentil propriétaire. L’accueil a été des plus chaleureux, les informations très pertinentes et nous nommons Elena et Fabio des super hôtes! ##### Christiane B.
