Great location
The location was excellent, 30 minute walk (2.1 km) to the main gate of Siena or 15 minute bus ride (bus stop 25 meters from the house). The home is beautiful, lots of amenities, it was very rustic. The pool area could use a good trimming, the online photos showed the property better than it actually was but not too far off.

The rooms are spacious and well equipped and the house can easily accommodate 10 people. The property is located in a wealthy enclave of Siena minutes from town yet it is completely private. The views are breathtaking and the property is gorgeous.

Great quiet location
We were 5 adults 60+ in age. The ease of catching a bus or walking into town is fabulous. The Pizzaria that is just down the road a short ways is a great place to have morning coffee and pastries or buy groceries and prepared food. We enjoyed every day !

Beautiful Tuscan villa with amazing views
My family stayed here for our visit to Siena and neighboring villages in Tuscany. The property was just as advertised, an old villa with antique furninings. The crown jewel is the outdoor spaces which include an infinity pool overlooking hills of olive groves. Great place for your groups visit to Siena.

Stunning countryside views
We had a wonderful holiday, the villa felt very safe and clean in our new Covid world. The villa has all the amenities that you require and is perfectly positioned overlooking Siena, with the convenience of a bus stop just outside the house with very quick links to the City – so leaving the car at home and waiting for the bus to arrive was a visual pleasure! Francesca is a delightful host, who goes that extra mile to make your stay in Siena pleasurable with an abundance of guidance and support, always responding to any questions very quickly. One thing to mention, the beautiful gardens and extensive land are part of the Tuscan countryside (we had freshly picked figs daily) so take lots of Mossie Spray! I hope you enjoy your holiday as much as we did – we look forward to returning…….

Great location, fab pool, stunning views
We had a great week in this characterful house, very spacious with a lovely infinity pool - beautiful views over a verdant valley. A five minute drive into the middle of stunning Siena, which has plenty of great restaurants. Apparently you could walk it in 20 minutes but it was very hot and rather hilly! Great local shop/pizzeria 5 mins walk away. Great restaurant recommendations from Francesca. Surrounded by amazing wine country of course, though sadly we couldn't book a tour because of Covid restrictions limiting numbers, so book early. Downside: crying out for a nice/paved outside seating area - the grass/ground around the pool is very rough so you need to wear shoes. Be prepared for mozzies.

Beautiful Property and Wonderful Hosts
The villa is beautiful and exactly as listed. It is immaculately clean, well stocked with everything you could possible need, and has large gathering areas with working fireplaces (which came in handy in the coolness of late October). For warmer weather the villa has a pool sitting in the midst of olive trees and an infinite view of Tuscan hills. The house is full of family memorabilia and history, and we had fun browsing the photos, books and found art objects in every room. We had a wonderful time! This is an ideal location. You feel like you are in the middle of the Tuscan countryside - and the views from the upstairs windows is of rolling hills and olive trees - but you are so close to the center of Siena. There is a small local market within a easy five minute walk which we used daily for necessities and a chance to meet a few local residents and eating a quick meal. The property is large and so picturesque. There is a bus stop right outside the gates of the villa that makes day trips in the immediate area easy and so convenient. Our hosts, Francesca and Francesco are delightful and truly made our trip special. Not only were they "there" by text anytime we had a question or need, they also arranged a couple of days that were highlights of our trip - a day of horse riding in the hills with a beautiful lunch afterwards, and a cooking class at a local farm where we had the chance to eat with the owner and family and see their cheese making, and meet their sheep, pigs, working dogs, and chickens. Francesco helped us get to and from the train station, and Francesca provided us hints for best ways to travel beyond Siena. Francesca told me she wants her guests to feel like they have a friend in Siena - and we absolutely did and do! The house is ideal for families with spacious bedrooms, large and well appointed bathrooms, and plenty of spaces to gather and relax. Don't hesitate to stay here - and you will find new friends in Francesca and Francesco.

Relaxing vacation with amazing service
Francesca and Francesco delivered amazing service in their beautiful villa. We enjoyed a home cooked meal with several accommodations needed to our menu on our first night in beautiful Siena. They made several recommendations and tours are available. Siena Center is close and we enjoyed the food, people watching and the shops. Something for everyone. We spent a day relaxing at Sangiovani Thermal spa, highly recommend! Francesco took us into Orvieto and was a lot of fun to spend the day with as he took us to our next stop on our tour in Rome. Pool is beautiful and we enjoyed a great night sleep in their comfortable beds.

Excellent villa
Such a great place. Slept 10 comfortably. Fully stocked kitchen with a lovely infinity pool. 20 min bus ride to Siena. Francesca was a delight to deal with and even booked us dinner for the first evening and brought us home made tiramisu. Fans in each room kept us cool. Very clean well functioning amenities. Thanks.
