Hilltop house in the heart of Tuscany with private pool

This 'home' in Tuscany is a carefully restored and enlarged farm building dating back to the 18th century. Its hilltop setting between olive groves and wheat fields, just 1.5km outside historic Montisi, gives it a unique 'away-from-it-all feeling'. Yet the hamlet's bakery, grocery shop, bar/tabac and restaurants are just a leisurely 15 min stroll away between cypresses and olive trees. Views are stunning, with the area around the private pool particularly good for enjoying sunsets.
This is not a 'develop to let' property, but a house that for seven years served as a 'home' when the owners were posted overseas and is now their holiday home.
It is arranged over three floors;
- The top floor comprises a double bed room with en suite bathroom
- The first floor mirrors the top floor, except that it is laid out as a twin bedroom, with en suite shower/bathroom
- The ground floor offers fantastic views over the rolling country side and includes a 25 X 12 ft living room with a well stocked library and fireplace, as well as a fully equipped kitchen with a beautiful breakfast terrace.

Lovely home with spectacular views! The home greatly exceeded our expectations. It had everything we needed for our 6 day. When not our touring the charming small Tuscany towns, we enjoyed the peace and quiet of the back porch and pool area. We kept the windows open and enjoyed the sweet breezes blowing through. If you're looking the perfect home to rent in Tuscany, this is the one.

Perfect location for a relaxing holiday.

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.

This is a great property in a lovely peaceful location. The property has everything you need for a stay including all kitchen equipment, dishwasher, washing machine and dryer. Outside there are plenty of places to sit, eat or just relax, and the pool is a really good size and such a great thing to have on hot days.The useful grocery shop in Montisi village has a surprisingly good selection of products for such a small shop, including a deli counter. Lots of good places to eat locally, and some stunning nearby towns such as Montalcino and Montepulciano.Further afield you can easily make a day trip to Florence or Rome via train from Chiusi.We would love to return some time to explore the area further!

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!

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!

Did not use pool. Too chilly. Laundry was great!! Loved the quaint village of Montisi. Views from villa were stunning. Adi gave great service. Had to have hot water looked at and he offered to pick us up in Chuisi from train station!!1 thing was lots of cob webs and killed several big spiders and centipede. Maybe they were all trying to find warmth with the cooler weather. Catherine was alway helpful with great info planning our trip. Thanks for the great time!

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!

Montisi is a beautiful, small hilltop town with almost no tourists. We love being away from the Tuscan crowds of the bigger cities. Yet we were only 30-40 minutes away from all the sights. The property is unique, but comfortable. The manager is friendly and very helpful.

We had a lovely time at Villa La Torre. The villa itself had everything you needed and it could have been easy to spend a week just relaxing and reading all of the wonderful books that were available or cooking with all the appliances needed for creating culinary delights! The area was peaceful and quiet. All that could be heard were the birds you could watch from the beautiful and vast view whilst sitting and relaxing over a BBQ and a glass of wine. On clear days we could see Sienna! Catherine our host was extremely helpful making check in and out easy and straightforward and everyone we met was friendly and helpful. The pool was lovely, clean and a good size to play and swim. Our daughter spent many hours playing around in the pool and we explored the nearby towns off the advice from the host in the very informative welcome pack. We couldn't have asked for a better stay. We will hopefully be back!
