It's hard to find an apartment with a pool within easy walking distance of Volterra town centre but apartment "Milianti" is just that, there can't be many others. Perched on the South side of the town, the bedrooms and covered veranda have stunning views across Tuscany countryside. The pool is a good size, it is shared between the four apartments but the others do not appear to be holiday lets and nobody else used it in the week we stayed. The Wi-Fi was good, the kitchen/diner was well equipped and the shower was fine with hot water all the time. There are about 25 steps down from the dedicated parking space to the property. The walk into the beautiful town is 11 minutes uphill, there are plenty of shops and restaurants to choose from, there is also a small Co-op supermarket 10 minutes walk away. Apartment "Milianti is pleasantly decorated but a gentle update could make it feel more current. It's a shame that there's no lounge area in the apartment or on the veranda but there is one by the pool.I have to mention that the host/agent had double booked the apartment for our first night. When we notified them, they responded immediately and offered us an alternative apartment, "Borgo Catignano", 20 minutes drive away near Mazzola, they also refunded the first nights fee. We moved into apartment "Milianti" the following day. It was an unfortunate mistake but everything was done to correct it. We loved our stay at apartment "Milianti" and would certainly go back.
