Where once wine, cheese and cereals were stored, today you’ll find our romantic holiday rental “Capitorio.” With its 50 square metres, a double bedroom, a fold-out armchair for one more guest and a living area with a sofa bed, it’s perfect for couples or small families. Capitorio has a traditional Tuscan interior with high ceilings, chestnut beams and a fireplace, creating a warm, authentic atmosphere. The centrepiece is a genuine “cucina in muratura” – a traditional brick-built kitchen with a stone sink and everything you need to prepare delicious Tuscan dishes. Ideal for couples who love peace, nature and the outdoors. From Podere Sant’Angelo, you can set out on beautiful walks directly from the property or explore the surrounding hills by e-bike (available for hire in Roccalbegna). Capitorio has access to a well-kept private garden with sun loungers – a wonderful place to relax, read or simply enjoy a lazy summer afternoon. After sunset, the Milky Way stretches across the sky above the estate – a magical sight, far from light pollution. Podere Sant’Angelo is special for its peaceful setting, wide-open views, unforgettable sunsets and its Mediterranean garden planted with lavender, rosemary and old roses. Visit nearby the hot springs of Saturnia the Etruscan hill towns of Pitigliano, Sovana and Sorano the UNESCO-listed landscapes of the Val d’Orcia the wine towns of Montalcino, Pienza and Montepulciano the unspoilt beaches of the Parco della Maremma Capitorio accommodates two adults and one child (up to 12 years). A cot and high chair are available for younger guests. Your host lives on site and will personally welcome you in English, happy to share tips about local walks, restaurants and producers. Good to know: Podere Sant’Angelo lies off the main road network. The holiday home is reached after about three kilometres on a well-maintained strada bianca – an unmade gravel road typical of the Tuscan countryside, ensuring peace, privacy and authentic rural charm. ## Property amenities ### Internet -

In der und um die Ferienwohnung herum war alles vorhanden, was wir für unseren Urlaub benötigt haben. Einen Trip an den Strand von Marina di Alberese oder in die "Area archeologica" von Roselle können wir empfehlen – hierfür sollte man allerdings etwas Fahrzeit (ca. 1h 15 min) einplanen. ##### Rebecca F.

Die Lage der Ferienwohnung ist ideal für alle, die in ihrem Urlaub Ruhe und Einsamkeit in der Natur suchen - genau das hatten wir auch gesucht! Auf der Terrasse konnten wir tagsüber wunderbar entspannen und Bücher lesen, abends kann man bei einem Gläschen Wein (hier gibt es sehr gute Weine) den einzigartigen Sternenhimmel bewundern - und dem Geräusch der Zirpen lauschen - ab und zu huschte auch ein Fuchs durch den Garten. Hier konnten wir richtig abschalten und entspannen. Ausflugsziele wie der schöne Naturstrand Marina di Alberese oder der Monte Amiata mit seinem einzigartigen Buchenwald sind ebenfalls mit dem Auto in Reichweite - wer kurvenreiche Sträßchen zu schätzen weiß kommt hier auf jeden Fall auf seine Kosten! Unser sehr netter Gastgeber Grahame hat uns sehr herzlich empfangen und mit allen Informationen versorgt - die Unterkunft ist gemütlich eingerichtet und sehr sauber - man hat alles gefunden, was man braucht (auch in der Küche). Wir kommen auf jeden Fall sehr gerne wieder! ##### Marlene H. Stayed 9 nights in Sep 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Katharina W.

Aug 11, 2015 #### Gite merveilleux dans un endroit merveilleux (English below) Gite très bien équipé et décoré avec beaucoup de goût...tout est très propre et le moindre détail est soigné...L'environnement est merveilleux, calme : seul le bruit du vent et celui des cigales viendra perturber votre sieste ! Le propriétaire est chaleureux et toujours de bon conseil. Nous avons tellement apprécié que nous serions prêts à revenir prochainement !!!! Tout autour de ce gite se trouvent de beaux village perchés, des sites étrusques et romains et les fameuses sources d’eau chaude sulfurées de Saturnia (baignade recommandée). En résumé……un beau gite qui est un excellent point de départ pour des visites, pour faire du vélo sportif ou simplement pour décompresser loin des tourments du quotidien. Very well equipped and tastefully decorated Holiday cottage …. Everything is clean and meticulously prepared. The local landscape is wonderful and quiet: only the noise of the wind and the one of cicadas can disrupt your afternoon nap ! The owner is warm and always provides sound advices ! We so much appreciated that we would be ready to return soon !!!! Beautiful perched villages, Etruscan & Roman sites and famous hot & sulphurized watersprings (located in Saturnia; recommended bathing) can be found in the near vicinity. As a summary … a beautiful holiday cottage which is an excellent starting point for visiting, for biking (sportsmen) or simply for relaxing far from the daily worries. ##### Sirot J.

Die Anfahrt über den ca. 2,7 km langen Schotterweg ist zwar etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig, aber wenn man Glück hat begegnet man auf dieser Strecke schon mal einem Reh. Tipp für die Anreise: Koordinaten statt Adresse ins Navi eingeben, dann findet man das Haus problemlos. Alle drei Ferienwohnungen haben separate Eingänge, so dass man wenig voneinander mitbekommt. Hier kann man Flora und Fauna in vollen Zügen genießen, ein schöner Garten mit wunderbaren Lavendel- und Rosmarinbüschen und eine tolle Aussicht tragen dazu bei. Die Anzahl der Vögel, Schmetterlinge, Bienen und anderer Insekten (glücklicherweise wenig Mücken!) in dieser Gegend vermitteln den Eindruck, dass sich die Natur hier entfalten kann. Im Haus fanden wir angenehm, dass es einfach, aber geschmackvoll und zweckmäßig eingerichtet war. Hier findet man keine uralten Gewürze irgendwelcher Vormieter in der Küche, alles ist sauber und einladend. Wer vor der Anreise einkaufen möchte sollte dieses spätestens in Arcidosso tun, hier gibt es zwei größere Supermärkte. Die Wege durch die Berge erscheinen immer länger als sie es wirklich sind, dafür gibt es aber viel zu sehen! Graham, der Vermieter, ist ausgesprochen nett und hat jede Menge guter Tipps für tolle Ausflüge, außerdem kümmert er sich sofort, wenn es ein Problem gibt. Wir hatten hier einen wirklich schönen Urlaub! ##### Sabine R. This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daniele m.

Wer Urlaub in einer tollen Landschaft mit super Aussicht, ruhiger Lage und fern ab der nächsten Straßen verbingen möchte ist hier richtig! Wir verbrachten zwei Wochen im Capitorio, das uns durch seine rustikale Atmosphäre, die stil- und liebevolle Einrichtung, die Terrasse mit grandiosem Weitblick (Sonnenuntergang, je nach Sichtverhältnissen Blick bis aufs Meer bzw. in die Berge) und das lavendelduftende blüteneiche Umfeld mit verschiedenen Sitzplätzen sehr gut gefallen hat. Alles war sehr sauber und mit Graham, dem Besitzer, stand uns jederzeit ein supernetter multilingualer Ansprechpartner zur Verfügung, der uns jede Menge Tipps für lohnende Ausflüge geben konnte. Sehr empfehlenswert!!! ##### Gisela und Thomas This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mathias W. Jun 11, 2014 #### Sehr empfehlenswert Wir haben ca. 2 Wochen in der Ferienwohnung Capitorio verbracht. Unsere Ansprüche/Erwartungen nach Ruhe, Natur, aber auch an die (liebevoll eingerichtete und urgemütliche) Ferienwohnung sowie d. Anwesen selbst wurden in jeder Hinsicht erfüllt und entsprachen exakt den Beschreibungen des Vermieters Graham. Dieser stand uns jederzeit mit Rat und Tat zur Seite. Ein nettes Gespräch war immer drin, und wir haben nicht zuletzt durch Graham viel über Land und Leute erfahren können. Die Natur mit vielfältigen Sehenswürdigkeiten, ob Berge, Tierwelt oder die Landschaft generell, hier haben wir uns wohlgefühlt. Es gab viele schöne Ortschaften und Städte zu bestaunen. Wenn auch teils längere Anfahrten dafür in Kauf zu nehmen sind, war dies für uns stets lohnenswert, ebenso wie die Mitnahme eines Reiseführers. Der kostenlose WLAN-Zugang hat uns gut gefallen. Sollte unser Urlaubsziel wieder einmal die südliche Toskana werden, kommen wir sehr gerne wieder. Mathias und Jutta ##### Mathias W.

The cottage exceeded our expectations; light filled, immaculate, great kitchen to cook in and stunning grounds. We were even able to build a fire in the evenings when it would get a little chilly. Graham, the host, was so helpful and very personable. It was such a pleasure to be surrounded by all the nature and quiet. This is an ideal place for people looking to stay in a beautiful quiet setting that is a little off the beaten path. The village of Roccalbegna had a wonderful little pizzeria and trattoria that we frequented. Wonderful trails to hike. And all within an hours + drive to Sienna and more touristy areas. This was a real oasis and we feel very fortunate to have been able to stay here. We highly recommend staying here to future travelers.

Als wir nach einer Unterkunft für unseren Toskana-Urlaub gesucht und Graham's "Capitorio" entdeckt haben, waren wir uns einig: das ist das Richtige! Und wir haben unsere Entscheidung nicht bereut: Podere Sant' Angelo ist ein gepflegtes Anwesen inmitten eines liebevoll gestalteten Gartens mit vielen Blumen und aromatischen Kräutern (die ab und an auch den Weg in unsere Kochtöpfe fanden). Die Ferienwohnung selbst, ursprünglich Teil einer Scheune, wurde überlegt und mit Sorgfalt umgebaut (Landhausstil) und bietet alles Notwendige für einen angenehmen Aufenthalt. Besonders schön ist die Terrasse mit einem großartigen Blick auf den Monte Labbro und die umliegenden Berge, auf der man die herrliche Ruhe genießen und die Annäherungsversuche der Eidechsen beobachten kann. Graham war uns ein wundervoller Gastgeber – höflich, zurückhaltend und immer hilfsbereits bei Fragen zu interessanten Sehenswürdigkeiten oder empfehlenswerten Restaurants (unser Favorit ist "La Grotta" im nahe gelegenen Roccalbegna). Kurzum: Wer einen ruhigen und entspannten Urlaub mit abwechslungsreichen Ausflugsmöglichkeiten verbringen möchte, vielleicht auch noch gerne wandert oder radfährt, dem können wir das Podere Sant' Angelo als Unterkunft uneingeschränkt empfehlen.

Capitorio, che ci ha ospitato per due settimane, è stata un'oasi di bellezza e quiete nella natura con i suoi suoni e profumi. I colori dei tramonti e la bellezza dello sguardo aperto sulla valle e le colline ci hanno regalato benessere e serenità. Graham ci ha accolti con familiarità e un grande sorriso, sempre disponibile e rispettoso della privacy e affabile in piacevoli conversazioni. I suoi modi gentili e cortesi ben si rispecchiano nel bellissimo giardino di piante, fiori ed erbe aromatiche, curato con amore e dedizione. Capitorio è stato esattamente quello che desideravamo, accogliente, silenzioso, luminoso, spazioso, fresco, confortevole e intimo. Il contesto ideale per chi ama la natura e desidera riposo per il corpo e la mente.

The cottages are clean, modern (in Tuscan style) and well maintained. Graham, the owner, lives close by and will assist you with his extensive local knowledge, find hidden attractions, events and restaurants. If you want a break well away from the rat race, this is the place to go, no traffic, no crowds. The closest town, Roccalbegna, is a short drive (15 minutes away), Casteldelpiano, 40 minutes and Montepulchiano 1 hour, all worth visiting. For a challenging walk or cycle ride, Monte Amiata is 40 minutes away. Driving from Rome or Pisa will take you roughly two and a half hours but your destination is well worth the drive.

The peacefullness of the cottage made a great break between stays in Florence & Rome. The pictures on the website don't do the place justice, it was converted to a high standard. We found Graham very helpful for tips around the area & further a field in Italy. ##### Leigh M.

Nous avons passé 3 merveilleuses semaines dans un cadre enchanteur, en pleine nature, accueillis très chaleureusement par Graham, qui nous a indiqué tous les bons plans balades et gastronomiques de la région. Le gîte était d'une propreté irréprochable, la connection à Internet était réellement un plus, et nos 2 jeunes enfants ont pu profiter du jardin en toute sécurité. La vue sur le Mont Labbro et ses alentours est superbe, l'endroit très calme, rythmé par le tintement des clochettes des brebis de passage, et le chant des cigales... Le coucher du soleil était un moment magique ! Nous avons aimé les chutes de Saturnia, les tombeaux Etrusques de Sovana, les villages de Roccalbegna, Arcidosso, Castel del Piano, et nous avons pu aller aussi jusqu'à Rome et Florence !

The service I received while there was some of the best I have experienced and Graham is extremely accomodating and friendly. I have stayed in both cottages and equally they are beautifully designed to fit in with the surroundings, very clean and cosy. Graham knows all the restaurants and sights in the area and was particularily great at introducing or directing us to these. This part of Tuscany is extremely beautiful all year round. I especially like my trip in December just as Tuscany starts getting festive. This is the perfect place to stay in the area, either to relax or if on business, to focus. Grahams Wi-fi is no doubt the best in the area and I was able to do everything I needed while there. I espeically like the fact it sits on the edge of a valley, waking up to such a perfect picture like landscape was definately a highlight!

The property was clean & well-maintained. The owner provided good customer service. I would recommend this property to a friend. We liked a lot the restaurant 'novecento' in Semproniano. Nice walks in the local nature parks. ##### Allan T.
