In quiet solitude, this splendid old farm is located between Siena and Arezzo (1.5km away) and approximately 7 km outside the charming town of Civitella in Valdichiana. The nearest shops and restaurants are approx. 2 km from the house.
The house is 400 m² in size and has recently been very sympathetically restored. As many original features as possible have been retained, thus the ceilings still have the traditional exposed beams supporting the terracotta stones used on floors and ceilings. The interior design is elegant and stylish with antique and new furniture. The house is set in its own garden with an assortment of outdoor furniture and a 12 x 6 m swimming pool, a bbq, table tennis and a playground for children. The house also has all the usual modern conveniences including a fridge freezer, dishwasher, washing machine, SAT TV, Hi-fi and DVD player and Internet access.

A good house for a big group. Not top marks, since there is a lot missing (also look under review). A large lacking, that the local staff don't speak English. They were kind and accommodating, but that isn't enough. We were unsatisfied with the lacking lighting, both indoor and outdoor, and that the internet could be used one day. Bad smell in one the of downstairs bedrooms. The pool is fresh and good, but the pillows in the hammocks were old and need replacing. A beautiful house, and we thrived with the comfortable terrace under roof, where we ate all of our meals.
