Very relaxing. Good jumping off point for many locations

The place had everything you need. Pool was very nice. Great views. The walk in to the center of town was about a mile, but had a few nice restaurants.

An ideal base for a wonderful Tuscan holiday!

We loved our week at this beautiful house in Montisi. It’s in an ideal location : secluded in gorgeous countryside but a short drive from the town and close to so many beautiful Tuscan towns and villages. The house is really well set up and the views from the bedrooms and the patio outside the kitchen are picture postcard perfect. We had a wonderful week and recommend this property without reservation!

Stunning property and location

My family and I had such a lovely week staying in Montisi taking in the views and exploring the surrounding towns and villages. We took our 6 month old baby with us and before booking the owner did explain that the property is far from baby proof (steep stone steps everywhere), but thankfully our daughter wasn’t able to crawl so we didn’t have any issues. I can’t quite stress enough how stunning the views are both from the patio at the Villa (where we had our breakfast every day) and when driving through the rolling hills in the surrounding area. It felt like something from a film; we were taken away with how beautiful it was. Highly recommend this villa, it’s clear to see this is a very much loved property by the owners and we were lucky to be able to stay!

Peaceful respite

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at your very comfortable home just outside the village of Montisi. The views were breathtaking and hard to leave. We enjoyed our coffee on the terrace every morning and slept like babes in the quiet! We visited many of the nearby villages and especially enjoyed a delicious dinner at Fattoria La Romita. We loved getting to know the folks at Portofranco and they had excellent wine recommendations! The house provided everything we needed and we thoroughly enjoyed the simplicity of our stay there. It was too cool for dips in the pool but we could imagine how nice it would be. We did visit the thermal springs in Bagno Vignoni and treated ourselves to a half day at Posta Marcucci. The poppies were in bloom along with all the scotchbroom. The olive trees were amazing! I could go on and on and hope that one day we can return! Thank you for sharing your home with us!

We didn't want to leave!

We spent a total of 45 days in jan-feb in this wonderful house in the heart of Tuscany and we just wished we could have stayed longer. The view is almost a cliché, you open the windows in the morning and look out over the rolling Tuscan hills and olive orchards and in the distant you can see Sienna, and it's quiet. The house is very stylish, comfortable and well equipped so you won't miss anything to make your holiday a restful and peaceful stay. You can make day trips by car to Sienna, Montalcino, Montepulciano and other lovely places and if you're into wine and great food, this is the place to be. In the shops around you find meat, cheese and veggies that taste like they are intended to taste and of course the wonderful gelato. Mr Adi who takes care of the property is a star and helps out with anything you could require with a smile and we will miss him and the owner Mrs Niessen is very accommodating and friendly. We were here in the winter but could easily imagine how spectacular and comfortable this house is in the summer season when you can enjoy the outside area with the pool as well. And don't feel that you have to bring books, the library is very extensive and inspirational and the hifi equipment is outstanding (I'm a musician so that is very important to me:)). We left feeling like better people with a tad of that Italian "la bella figura" and hope to be able to come back for a stay soon again. We can totally recommend this refined and pleasant country house, far away from anything that would resemble as touristic. Many thanks!

Wir hatten wirklich einen tollen Aufenthalt. Der Turm ist liebvoll restauriert mit einem tollen Garten und Pool (ca. 15m lang !!!, wirkt kleiner auf den Fotos). Der Ausblick über die toskanischen Felder könnte schöner nicht sein. Es ist wunderbar ruhig, das wirklich wundervolle Dorf Montisi ist in genau 1km fußläufig erreichbar. Dort gibt es 4 oder 5 gute Restaurants, einen Bäcker, einen kleinen Lebensmittelladen und Kunsthandwerksgeschäfte. Ein sehr authentischer und sehenswerter Ort. Ich kann sowohl das Haus, als auch die Gastgeberin und den Kontakt vor Ort uneingeschränkt empfehlen ! Es ist eher noch besser als auf den Fotos in der Realistät. Wer gerne vorbereitet ist sollte an Mückenschutz denken.

Even better than the pictures

My husband and I had a lovely stay for a week in this villa. The house and the location were perfect. Even better than we saw in the pictures. There is a large terrace in front of the house with shade and a perfect view (with sunsets) were we sat most of the day. The swimming pool was also great and you could always choose between sun or shade next to the pool. It was very quiet. No noice from traffic or anything else (except from the birds, the peacocks and crickets :-)) We have stayed in a quite a number of villas over the years (France, Spain, Italy) but this villa is definitely in our top 3.Montisi is a small but charming village. It is a 3 minute drive from the villa along a small path. You can find a bakery, a small supermarket and a very nice restaurant there. The only down side was the very hot bedroom. I understood though that the owner plans to put AC in. If that is the case than we certainly would like to go back here!

Es war eine unglaublich tolle Zeit, das Haus, der Garten und der riesige Pool sind super. Wir haben uns rundum wohl gefühlt. Auch für unseren dreijährigen Sohn war es toll und die Stufen im Haus waren kein Problem.Es ist ein echtes Juwel in der Toskana. Die Anfahrt war easy über einen längeren Schotterweg und wir haben ein sportliches Auto, welches eher tief liegt. Der Ort Montisi ist auch sehr schön mit tollen authentischen Restaurants! Die Kommunikation mit Catherine war top und vor Ort hat uns Adi alles gezeigt und war unser Ansprechpartner bei allen Fragen.Absolut zu empfehlen für einen Traumurlaub!

We had a wonderful stay, the location was perfect for a short 15 minute walk into Montisi. The countryside setting was lovely and peaceful. We enjoyed being surrounded by beautiful nature, watching the deer every evening was delightful. We hope to return in the future.

Like Out of a Movie-A DREAM!

Our stay was wonderful. So beautiful and idyllic! Pros: helpful host who answered all communications, gorgeous setting and amenities (pool, ping pong table, outdoor dining), washer/dryer, overflow refrigerator, linens, etc. Lovely village with wonderful people! We took a cooking class -great! Things to know b/c I like to read reviews that add details: The directions to the house are detailed, but were confusing for us at first. Adi, the caretaker, helped us. Cell service can be spotty though, especially in the village of Montisi. It got a little warm at night, but they have oscillating fans to help. Sleeping with the windows open was lovely. You will be charged for using gas for heating (and you will have to pay tourist tax). The fees were nominal, but are to be paid in cash. Make sure you have cash at departure so you can leave it. Not a complaint, just a heads up! There are bugs. In late August there were flies and mosquitos. We bought some citronella candles and spray at the grocery store and it wasn't a huge problem. On breezy nights, no problem at all! :) The decor of the house is eclectic, rustic, & has a great vibe. Some of the furnishings are a bit vintage/worn, but overall the aesthetic is nice. Lots of books to read too! Do not let these 'reminders' deter you. You will feel like a character in a movie when you stay here. It's romantic, charming, and lovely. We definitely want to return and bring family-it's a house that's meant to be shared!

Lage ist alles

Die Lage des Hauses ist fantastisch. Man hat von der Terrasse und dem Pool einen grandiosen Blick über die Crete Senesi - bei guter Sicht kann man sogar den Dom und den Turm in Siena sehen (Fernglas...). Durch die Lage hat man dort auch absolute Ruhe - was wir als Großstädter zu schätzen wussten. Für die Zufahrt sollte man aber besser ein Fahrzeug mit mehr Bodenfreiheit haben. Das Haus ist ein ehemaliger Lager-Turm, wurde also zu Wohnzwecken sehr individuell umgebaut. Auch die Einrichtung spiegelt den individuellen Geschmack der Eigentümer wider, die das Haus auch regelmäßig selbst nutzen - auch zu erkennen an den hunderten Büchern im Wohnzimmer. Bei unserer Ankunft war das Haus allerdings in einem nicht ordnungsgemäß sauberen Zustand. Hier wurde zwar schnell etwas nachgebessert, auch wurden uns neue Kopfkissen gebracht weil die vorhandenen komisch müffelten. Aber insgesamt war in sehr vielen Ecken Staub und Spinnweben, die nicht entfernt wurden. Man sollte auch nicht unbedingt Spinnenphobie haben, da man im Haus eigentlich täglich mindestens 2-3 recht große Exemplare antraf. Das Mobiliar und auch Handtücher/Bettwäsche ist zum Teil sehr abgenutzt. Auch könnte der Garten etwas mehr Aufmerksamkeit vertragen. Das Haus hat tolles Potenzial, das aber nicht genutzt wird. Es verkauft sich in erster Linie über die Lage. Das mag den Preis zum Teil ja rechtfertigen, aber dafür ein rundum schönes Urlaubserlebnis ist uns das zu wenig.

Perfect holiday!

Wow! Such a beautiful property with absolutely mesmerising views. We absolutely loved our holiday here, the perfect place to celebrate my 50th, milestone birthday! We loved the wonderful bedroom on the top floor, cooking in the quaint kitchen, bbq'ing and eating al fresco on the beautiful terrace and veranda, playing table tennis, relaxing in the wonderful pool, we even brought lilo's at the local supermarket and spent afternoons bobbing around, enjoying the wonderful weather. The house was well equipped, all the basics for cooking, coffee, tea etc, even a nespresso machine and a lovely, much appreciated welcome basket! The local village is really friendly and Il Barino''s is a must for a delicious, long, relaxed lunch / dinner - fantastic! We came here for a much needed break and found a piece of paradise. The local bee-eater birds and their vibrant colours were incredible, the sunrises and sunsets out of this world. We highly recommend this property, absolutely wonderful!

Wonderful villa in great location

We absolutely loved our stay here. The villa has such character (it’s exactly as in the photos) with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. And the location is perfect for exploring all the hill top villages. The local village Montisi is the perfect size - with all that we needed, without the tourists - and the locals were very friendly. Catherine is an awesome host, sending loads of helpful information prior as well as checking in on us during our stay. Although the weather wasn’t as warm as normal for May it was perfect for our adventures and we will return in summer to make use of the pool!! We would definitely recommend this villa and Catherine as a host and we look forward to returning sometime soon.

Quirky place that's lovable, with a great view!

The most amazing aspect of this place is the view! We sat for hours on the little veranda looking out over the fields, watching sunsets, deer, rain, hunters, and, in the evening, the distant lights of Siena coming on. Other pros - communication with Catherine and with the caretaker, Adi, was great. He was responsive when we asked about wifi issues and when we had a problem with a key breaking off in one of the doors. The town of Montisi is charming. There's a coffee place, a couple of restaurants, and a small market. The hours and days of the week that these places were open were hard to grasp. We were there in October, and one restaurant was closed for the season (Da Roberto) and the other one, Il Barrino - l'Ombelico del Mondo, was only open certain nights and had no sign. When we did go to this one, the evening was great. The walk to town is lovely through olive groves, but it's a good mile and a little rough going on a gravel road. And dark at night! Montisi is in an EXCELLENT location for visiting wonderful towns nearby. The cons. The house is small, and there are many concrete steps - you need to watch your step carefully throughout the house. The outdoor area is wonderful, view-wise, but there are few places to have a comfortable sit or lie-down (and look at the view). The lighting throughout the house is dim. The kitchen was stocked with very basic equipment. There was little or none in the way of essential items like salt, sugar, dish soap, coffee pods, and paper goods. We went to the market in Sinalunga to buy groceries, a good well-stocked market, but we were surprised at our need to buy the basics. We like to cook and found that the equipment was spare (no roasting pan, mixing bowl, etc.) A major issue was the internet. Even when it worked, it was very sluggish and prone to frequent random outages. The phone service is also spotty. So if connectivity is important to you, this will be an issue. We did love the place with all its quirks. We got used to them and spent so much time swooning over the view that the other issues faded as the week went on.

Simply Amazing

Difficult to describe how much we enjoyed our stay! Loved the setting and rural location. Captivated by the view of the rolling hills, the deer grazing in the distance and the absolute silence. Coffee on the patio in the morning without a sound! The house itself a mix of personal character and charm. We used the location as a base for exploring the area and hit several towns in the area, too many to fully list. Really enjoyed Pienza where we did a self tour bike trip. We really enjoyed dinner at La Romita in the village of Montisi. The locals were very welcoming. The host at the local wine bar was a great resource for wine and information on the village and surrounding area. Very sad that we had to leave, a great home away from home for a week!
