Holiday Rental Description

In years gone by, this building in the countryside surrounding Siena was a farmhouse. Today, however, those paying a visit to the address will find a really rather dreamy Tuscan getaway.

We're willing to wager the first things that guests notice upon arrival is the invitingly blue swimming pool that sits in the middle of the garden, which in turn, is surrounded by beautiful views of Val d'Orcia — a UNESCO World Heritage Site, no less. The panorama is no less spectacular from underneath the home's shady verandah, either.

Inside, there are traditional aspects, like the wooden ceiling beams and terracotta tiling underfoot, but the white walls and furnishings add a contemporary flourish, too. It must be said that the kitchen is modest in size, but there's also a barbecue in case you fancy cooking alfresco.

There is a recently added sauna, minipool and chromotherapy hot tub for those looking to fully relax.

If you're hoping to dine out, there are a handful of restaurants in the closest town of Monteroni d'Arbia ten minutes' drive away, as well as a much wider choice in the medieval city of Siena, which takes about half an hour to reach in the car. You're well covered for countryside walks in the surrounding hills that will help you work up an appetite, too.
