Home truths

    Due to this home's location, we recommend hiring a car to maximise your stay. There is private parking on the premises.

    The home is spread across three floors without a lift, so it may not be suited to those with limited mobility.

    The bedrooms are spread between the main house and two separate cottages on the premises. One of the cottages sleeps four guests, the other sleeps six, and the main house offers space for eleven other guests.

    Your host can provide a cot and high chair for free upon request.

    The traditional decor here might not be to everyone's taste. It feels a little dated in parts.

    Bed linen and towels are changed on a daily basis here.

    The swimming pool is open from 14th May to 1st October.

About Val di Chiani

Situated in the southeast of Tuscany, stretching all the way from Arezzo to the province of Orvieto in Umbria, Val di Chiani is a patchwork of olive groves, grassy plains and thick forests. Ochre villages and towns fleck the landscape – Montepulciano is a particular favourite, famed for its Vino Nobile wine that pairs perfectly with a plate of Tuscan wild boar pasta.
