The OLIVO Cottage is part of the beautiful framhouse Monti 1824 in Casole d'elsa, Siena composed by 3 cottages and 3 apartments.

Monti 1824 is completly family run, and it is our own personal commitment to great care of the estate and the gardens to make this place a special one, not just for us but also for all our visitors. Me ( Federica) and my parents work together to keep Monti 1824 at its best and to give our guests a complete assistance during the stay. It is in our choice not to have an official reception office. Maybe you need any assistance? or simply have a question? You can knock at our door of our home. There will be always someone available to help you! The Olivo Cottage has a private location but not far from the main farm, where we live.

The concept of a family enviroment is related also to the holiday accommodation: made to be family friendly. The garden is contained and well kept , just the type of place that invites to sit outside to read a book , play games or drink a nice glass of red wine (Chianti of course!).

The panoramic pool is set in a short distance from the cottage, so it is close enough reach by foot , but not too close that the fun and laughter will spill over into the garden.

The area lends itself to a fun filled family holiday, especially when you are interested about the local culture, traditions and meeting the Tuscans.

The OLIVO COTTAGE is completely renovated with all the comforts of a modern home. The ground floor has a kitchen equipped for self catering with 4 burner gas cooker, oven, toaster, kettle, fridge, freezer, coffee maker and dishwasher. The cute little living room is very bright with large French doors, sofa and satellite TV. The kitchen leads to a secluded terrace at the rear of the building. The master bedroom is furnished in country Tuscan style with en-suite bathroom with shower. Upstairs feature and panoramic attic with 2 single beds and small wardrobe. The attic is opened and bright as well with two large windows and en suite bathroom in Tuscan style. The whole building is surrounded by an enclosed area and gated. The patio in front of the house is equipped with table and chairs to enjoy during the day of spectacular views over the countryside and at night the cool breeze. Private BBQ.

The swimming pool with panoramic views is equipped with sun loungers, deck chairs and parasols. Wi-fi on all outdoor areas.
