About The Experience

In the Chianti countryside, with a lush garden and natural stream running through the property, this spacious, beautifully renovated farmhouse in Tuscany was once a mill in the 15th century and today, its rustic charm offers comfort, spectacular views, and privacy. Farm holidays in Tuscany mean that you’re in a perfect location for day trips throughout the region, including the medieval town of Siena, which is only 15 minutes away by car. After a day of sightseeing, it is pure bliss to return to this Tuscany accommodation for an afternoon of relaxation with a glass of local wine, a swim in the private pool, a meal in the outdoor barn, or a stroll in the beautifully landscaped garden, where all you’ll hear are the sounds of nature.

Location Description

A 15th century mill that has been transformed into a beautiful, welcoming, country residence, this farmhouse is located in the countryside next to a natural stream. Its thick walls keep the house cool in summer. The natural rocky landscape of the surrounding garden includes old cypress and oak trees. There is a salt water heated (for an extra cost) swimming pool (6m x 12m; 2.4m deep, open from May through the end of September) with an infinity edge and a restored 2-story barn located between the main house and the stream. A spacious (50 m2/538 ft2) paved terrace is equipped for al fresco dining. A typical unpaved road leads (800 m/2,624 ft) to the house and provided parking.

Customer Reviews

Overall:
We loved the location the restored mill was beautiful, the home decor (mostly antiques were interesting), the internet was highly variable and could have lived forever without the dirt road. Everything worked and with Google Maps we wee able to travel to all our destinations. Some cute local communities and plently of good restaurants.
Enjoyed Most:
Location, location, location.
Enjoyed Least:
Remote as far as internet and cell phone and oh that dirt road!
Surrounding Area:
Breathtakingly beautiful. Easy access to local grocers as well as the Coop.
Nearby Events or Locales:
No town was within walking distance for us but several were only a 5 minute drive.
Tips or Restaurants:
Go with a group. We were alone and it would have been fun to have a larger group of people with us. Hardly anyone spoke English and we did not speak Italian so communication was difficult at times. Shame on us but still an inconvenience.
Directions:
Never would have made it without Google Maps. Rental car GPS was only in Italian.
