About this property
Gorgeous view on vineyards, Stone Tuscan private Villa
Capanna al Lago is a charming private villa set on a gentle hillside overlooking the rolling landscapes of Chianti. Surrounded by vineyards and open countryside, the property offers sweeping views, fresh breezes, and the peaceful atmosphere that makes this part of Tuscany so special.
The villa enjoys a privileged location just 10 minutes from the historic center of Siena, while placing guests in the heart of the Chianti wine region. Shops, restaurants, and everyday conveniences are a short drive away, and the nearby highway provides easy access to Florence, Val d’Orcia, and many of Tuscany’s most celebrated destinations.
The house is surrounded by a fully private garden exclusively for guests, creating a quiet and secluded setting to relax and enjoy the countryside. Outdoor living is central to the experience here: shaded areas beneath mature trees, comfortable spaces for relaxing, and open views across the valley create the perfect setting for long Tuscan afternoons.
The garden also features both a panoramic swimming pool and an outdoor hot tub, each positioned to take full advantage of the surrounding views. Whether cooling off during warm summer days or enjoying the warm water of the hot tub in the evening, the outdoor spaces invite guests to slow down and fully enjoy the landscape.
The thick stone walls of the house create a naturally comfortable environment, while modern air conditioning throughout the villa ensures additional comfort during the warmer months. In the early morning, the valley below often fills with soft mist rising between the hills: a beautiful sight that can be enjoyed directly from the garden or the villa’s windows.

We had a large group of family and friends comfortably stay here. The host was very available and helpful, and personally showed us around the property upon our arrival. The property description is accurate.
A true Tuscany experience. Fantastic place to stay. Highly recommendable for family holiday. We all loved the welcome dinner which Francesca, our host, prepared for us. And her team, Best of Mas, was very helpful and responsive. It was a lovely stay!
We had the most amazing time at Francesca’s villa. The villa was beautiful and had the most amazing views. We felt like we’re in a movie. It was exactly what we were looking for in terms of experience in Tuscany. The villa had all the modern amenities but with a rustic Tuscan farmhouse vibe. The extra bonus was being able to work with Francesca and Ambra through their company The Best of Mas. They worked with us for over a year to help us plan a once in a life time trip, from logistics, to dinner reservations, wonderful day trips and tours in Tuscany, Sorrento and Capri. We will recommend The Best of Mas to any of our family and friends who are planning a trip to Italy. We can’t wait yo go back!
We had a great stay in this home enjoying the views of the Tuscan country side. It is located close to Siena and is a perfect place to stay to make day trips to many towns and villages in Tuscany. Francesca was very attentive and helpful in explaining everything about the house and property. We would definitely stay again if ever in the area.
We had an amazing stay at this home in the Tuscan countryside. Everything you need is at your fingertips so all you have to do is sit back and enjoy the scenery. Francesca is an amazing host and quickly responded to every request and couldn’t be more helpful. The only complaint we had was that we couldn’t stay longer!
We look forward to returning some day!
The property is an authentic Tuscan dream and the view is so stunning it is almost unreal. Francesca is an excellent host whose personal history with the house shines through in her attentiveness and care of her guests and their experience while visiting. 100% recommended.
We loved our stay! There were 5 adults and plenty of room for all of us. The house looks similar if not better than the photos. It’s very peaceful and relaxing. Francesca made everything very easy for us - including rides to and from the airport, and having a rental car ready to go for us at the house. The highlight for us was the cooking class that came to us. (Also arranged by Francesca) Delicious food and an amazing experience!
Really loved the property and location...house was really well equiped.
BUT...a cleaning charge of €250 and paying for excess use if electricity? Come on...that was ridiculous.
We had a wonderful stay in Siena. You absolutely can't beat the views and the location! We were a short drive into the heart of Siena and were able to take day trips in all directions to other beautiful towns in Tuscany.
The host was absolutely amazing. She greeted us upon check in and helped us at a moment's notice throughout our trip...even helping us make phone calls because we could not speak the language enough to do so.
The property is spectacular. The views from the patio can't be beat from sunrise to sunset! The property is behind a private gate which added a nice touch of security. The house was welcoming and clean with nice amenities like a washer and dryer - we felt right at home. I have already recommended this location to many people. Highly recommend!
We had a wonderful stay at Capanna Al Lago The property has gorgeous, views of the picturesque Tuscan countryside. The property is peaceful and secluded, yet just minutes away from Sienna, making it the perfect getaway for relaxation. The spacious house is attractively decorated, blending traditional charm with modern comforts. Nicely accommodated bedrooms and bathrooms ensure a comfortable stay for all guests.
The views are are enhanced by a pool, adding to the ambiance and likely providing a refreshing retreat on warm days although the weather was not warm enough during our stay. The hot tub is well maintained, with powerful jets that make it a great spot for relaxing under the stars.
A nearby supermarket made it easy to prepare meals, which we enjoyed on the patio table in the beautiful surroundings. We found it a good location for exploring the Tuscan countryside, medieval towns, and other sights. Francesca is a wonderful host and the team at Best of Mas was a delight to work with. We will be going back again in the future. Highly recommended.
We cannot be more thankful to Francesca and Best of MAS! From the moment we reserved the home to the moment we were driven back to the airport, our experience was wonderful. The communication was stellar. Best of MAS and Francesca immediately reached out to arrange our airport transfer and ask if we wanted to arrange a welcome dinner. We rented a car from Best of MAS and are so happy we did. Everything was so easy and worry-free. We would highly recommend arranging for the airport transfer back to the airport as there is no Uber in Siena and one would have to take two trains to get back to the airport, not worth the hassle. Francesca is so kind, welcoming, friendly, and professional. The home is wonderful and so spacious and peaceful. The views are spectacular. Our welcome dinner was prepared according to our dietary restrictions and it was delicious. Siena is a wonderful town full of friendly people and delicious food. Thank you again, Francesca and Best of MAS!!
This is a really special villa. The views over the countryside are out of this world - it's just rolling hills, vineyards and gorgeousness. It's also ideally located. 10 mins from Siena and Monteriggioni, 45 mins from San Gimignano and an hour from Florence.
The interior is beautifully decorated. Not in a standard hotel way, but filled with history and interesting objects that give you a real sense of time and place. You could spend ages just admiring the decor. Bedrooms are air conditioned, which is wonderful and the kitchen is really well stocked if you like to cook.
Finally, the magic ingredient is Francesca and her team. They made us feel so welcome and were unbelievably helpful. We arrived late on a Saturday and asked Francesca about supermarkets to buy breakfast stuff the next day. Before we knew it, she'd gone out and picked up a selection of things she thought we might like. I've lost count of the amount of times I texted Francesca about car parks or restaurants and she always came back with such helpful advice. We had a welcome meal and pizza night and her team were really wonderful. The villa and location are amazing, but I have to say that Francesca and her team really took it to another level. I don't know when we're coming back to Tuscany, but when we do, it'll be back here.
We loved our stay, it was beautiful and relaxing beyond words! Francesca and her team were amazing, providing so many memorable experiences and great support! We will be back! What a wonderful time all around.
The property was lovely. Secure, private entrance with lovely backyard views overlooking Siena’s landscape. The sunrises and sunsets were spectacular. The perfect spot to enjoy dinner, drinks, or to simply relax with the book. Francesca was the perfect host, and help to make our stay carefree. From our pick up at the train station, trip to the grocery store, welcome dinner preparation with great conversation, trip planning, on-site rental cars and a private driver for our trip to and from Florence…we couldn’t have been more pleased. Francesca and her group made this one of our best stays.
We had a fantastic stay during our week in Tuscany. Francesca, the owner, was outstanding and timely in her response to questions throughout out stay. This VRBO rental is nothing short of a 5-star experience and we loved our stay.
Beautiful house with all the amenities. Easy to get to, peaceful neighborhood with stunning views of the vineyards. Francesca and all of the Best of Mas were wonderful. We will recommend this property to all our friends and hope to return soon.
We had a lovely weekend here! It was a restful, relaxing weekend during a long two week tour of Italy. They were so helpful in accommodating all of our requests. One night we had the best time - Amber came to cook us dinner - her cheery disposition equally as wonderful as her dinner she prepared. We loved every second and would love even more to be able to return!

Excellent!
I cannot say enough about Francesca, her home, her hospitality and the amazing tour and meal she provided us! I highly recommend anyone traveling to Siena to stay at this property and to arrange tours with her. From the warm greeting to the hugs goodbye, everything we encountered with her was exactly what we imagined Italy to be.
Four friends gathered at the perfect house to enjoy 10 days touring Tuscany, relaxing by the pool, wandering through the vineyard, cooking great meals, and making memories to last a lifetime.
Francesca is the perfect hostess, and her husband Francesco the perfect chef to teach us how to make wood-fired pizza and treat us to his secret recipe limoncello.
We can't wait to return!

Beautiful setting - great house
We stayed for one week at this beautiful property just outside of Siena. The house, the pool, the hot tub, the view - absolutely fabulous. You do need a car to get around (to grocery, old city Centro in Siena and surrounding hill towns). Francesca is very helpful - an especially gracious host. I would highly recommend this property for afamily or a group of friends.
