High Above the Valley

Holiday Rental Description

A serene, peaceful getaway in the heart of Tuscany awaits you. Located on the Montaione hills overlooking Elsa Valley, this home has scenic views that stretch from Chianti to Volterra and San Gimignano. This idyllic countryside villa features ample space both indoors and outdoors providing the perfect setting for a rural retreat with friends and family.

The charming, refined space is framed by cypress trees, the symbol of all that's sacred in Tuscany, and with lush fields and olive groves offering expansive views of distant mountains, you’ll instantly feel connected to your landscape. Your home’s private patio, complete with sun loungers and a huge pristine pool, overlooks the vineyards - so you’ll feel part of your environment with a glass of cold Vermentino in hand.

The elegant yet rural interior design features original beamed ceilings, traditional arches and stunning Cotto tiles which are blended with modern furnishings and crisp white walls for a truly clean aesthetic. Cooking a Tuscan feast will be a delight in your modern country kitchen, as will sinking into your jacuzzi as the sun dips over its afternoon peak.

The possibilities for cultural excursions are not lacking in this area either - the towers of San Gimignano and cathedrals and Etruscan remains of Volterra lie only a thirty-minute car ride away along charming country roads - absent from traffic, making them ideal destinations if you’re seeking peaceful travel.
