Property Summary

Nestled in the rolling hills of Terranuova Bracciolini, in the heart of Tuscany, Italy, Buca delle Fate is a captivating country farmhouse that traces its origins to the early twentieth century, when it served as part of an ancient local farm. Thoughtfully renovated in keeping with the dictates of local tradition, the property showcases rustic interiors in a classic Tuscan style, offering guests an atmosphere of genuine authenticity and timeless charm. This exceptional vacation rental is ideally suited to those seeking a holiday inspired by slow, peaceful rhythms, immersed in nature and the spirit of the Valdarno countryside. The farmhouse is enveloped by a beautifully maintained yard of approximately 8,000 square meters, largely dedicated to the cultivation of olive trees that produce an excellent extra virgin olive oil, and enclosed by a fully fenced garden adorned with Mediterranean aromatic borders, rose bushes, oleanders, fruit trees, and scattered olive trees. A stunning non-heated swimming pool sits at the center of the garden, offering a refreshing retreat during the warmer months. Guests benefit from Wi-Fi internet connectivity throughout the property, ensuring a comfortable and connected stay. A dedicated parking area is conveniently located just inside the entrance gate to the property, approximately 50 meters from the farmhouse itself.

Outdoors

The outdoor spaces of Buca delle Fate are among its most remarkable features, offering a seamless blend of natural beauty and thoughtfully arranged leisure areas. The garden, completely fenced and extending all around the farmhouse, is characterized by lush lawn areas bordered by Mediterranean aromatic plantings and dotted with olive trees, rose bushes, oleanders, and a variety of fruit trees including peaches, plums, walnuts, apple trees, and apricots. Guests are also welcome to draw seasonal vegetables from the garden cultivated by the owner, adding a delightful farm-to-table dimension to their stay.

A built-in barbecue and an outdoor kitchen are located a short distance away, making al fresco entertaining both easy and enjoyable. On the back of the property, a second pergola surrounded by fragrant climbing wisteria provides a perfect corner for quiet relaxation, immersed in the silence of the Tuscan countryside.

The non-heated swimming pool is open from the last Saturday in April to the first Saturday in October and is positioned at the center of the garden, at a slightly elevated level relative to the farmhouse, accessible via a flight of 5 steps. The pool features an attractive bean shape with a stone border and internal PVC lining, covering an area of 40 square meters, and is equipped with a Roman staircase on one side. It is fitted with a cold water outdoor shower and lighting both inside the pool and throughout the surrounding garden. The purification system is chlorine-based. The sunbathing area, finished in wood and stone along the perimeter and extending into the lawn dotted with olive trees, is furnished with sun beds, umbrellas, and a wooden gazebo appointed with armchairs.

An additional swimming pool, available but not for the exclusive use of guests, is located approximately 50 meters from the farmhouse, near the annex where the owners reside. This pool has a rectangular shape measuring 12x6 meters with a variable depth ranging from 1.20 meters to 1.70 meters, and is also equipped with a cold water outdoor shower and a generous sunbathing area planted with lawn.

It should be noted that photo shoots are typically taken in spring, and therefore the colors and blooms of the gardens, lawns, and surrounding areas may differ at the time of your arrival.

Unit Layout

Buca delle Fate accommodates up to 8 guests across 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, distributed over 2 floors that together create a harmonious and well-proportioned living environment. The farmhouse is spread over two levels, with the main entrance on the ground floor opening directly onto the living area through a French door from the external pergola. On this floor, a welcoming living room, a dining area, and a spacious kitchen are thoughtfully arranged in a single open-plan space, creating a convivial heart to the home. The ground floor also features a single bedroom that communicates with a double bedroom, and the 2 rooms share an en suite bathroom with shower. Both ground floor bedrooms benefit from direct access to the garden via French windows, further enhancing the connection between interior and exterior.

A stone staircase leads from the living room to the first floor, where a hallway area provides access to 3 additional bedrooms: a single bedroom with direct access to a terrace with a seating area, a double bedroom, and a twin bedroom. The first floor is served by 2 bathrooms, one fitted with a shower and the other with both a shower and a bathtub. The laundry facilities are located outside the main building, housed in a wooden structure adjacent to the main entrance.

Distances and Attractions

Buca delle Fate enjoys a privileged position in the Valdarno area of Tuscany, situated between the Pratomagno ridge and the nearby Chianti region, and positioned approximately halfway between Florence and Arezzo. The property is located just a few kilometers from the Autostrada del Sole, making it easily accessible from major Italian cities and international airports.

The surrounding landscape is one of the most evocative in the valley, distinguished by the presence of the so-called crags, dramatic rocky erosions formed following the drying up of a large ancient lake that once covered the Arno valley, and which many believe to be portrayed in the backgrounds of paintings by Leonardo da Vinci. These formations offer enchanting scenery particularly at sunset, when shadows play across the steep walls and furrows of the terrain.

The property is accessed via the Setteponti road, the ancient route linking Arezzo and Vallombrosa, along which numerous CAI hiking and mountain biking routes depart, allowing guests to explore the entire area of the crags on foot or by bike. The surrounding countryside is dotted with rural architecture and Romanesque churches, including the famous basilica of Gropina, which dominates the village of Loro Ciuffenna, classified among the most beautiful villages in Italy.

Property Summary

Nestled atop a sun-drenched hill in the heart of Tuscany, Monterzi is a beautifully restored farmhouse that offers an extraordinary vacation rental experience in one of Italy's most evocative landscapes. Located within easy reach of the charming medieval borgo of Trequanda and surrounded by the rolling vineyards and olive groves that define the Sienese countryside, this property was born from the careful and respectful renovation of an ancient ruin, once used as stables. The stone turret that formed the original structure has been thoughtfully expanded and refurbished in keeping with the authentic Tuscan architectural tradition, resulting in an interior that is both comfortable and full of character. The estate extends across approximately 2 hectares, offering guests a sense of privacy and immersion in nature that is truly rare. A private yard envelops the property, providing ample space to wander and unwind amid a rich variety of native trees and Mediterranean vegetation. Wireless internet connection is available throughout the property, ensuring guests remain connected during their stay, while private parking is provided on-site for added convenience.

Outdoors

The outdoor spaces of Monterzi are nothing short of spectacular, defined by the extraordinary 360-degree panorama that unfolds from the hilltop on which the house stands. Directly in front of the property, the picturesque village of Montisi comes into view, while turning westward reveals the magical lunar landscape of the Crete Senesi. To the east, the gaze travels across Radicofani and the ever-changing geometry of the Val d'Orcia, all the way to Montalcino beneath the towering silhouette of Mount Amiata. The estate's grounds are laced with pleasant walking paths shaded by a rich variety of native shrubs and tall trees, including maples, holm oaks, chestnuts, old oaks, lindens, and fruit trees such as fig, cherry, pear, and peach. A panoramic portico, furnished with a table and chairs, provides the perfect setting for alfresco dining with sweeping views, while a brickwork barbecue located just a few steps away invites guests to enjoy leisurely outdoor meals in true Tuscan style. Please note that the photographs of the property were taken in spring, so the appearance of flowering plants and garden grass may vary depending on the season of your visit. The non-heated swimming pool is situated approximately 15 metres from the house, on a slightly lower level, and is enclosed by a wooden and net fence with a gate for safety. South-facing and positioned to take full advantage of the panoramic views over the Val d'Orcia, the rectangular pool measures 4 x 8 metres with a constant depth of 1.10 metres. It is lined in PVC and equipped with chlorine purification, with a ladder providing easy access to the water. The surrounding sunbathing area is paved in pink stone, bordered on 2 sides by fragrant lavender bushes, and furnished with sunbeds. A solar-heated outdoor shower completes the pool area. The pool is open from the last Saturday in April to the first Saturday in October.

Unit Layout

Monterzi accommodates up to 4 guests across 2 well-appointed bedrooms and 1 bathroom, distributed over 2 floors that are connected both by an internal staircase and an external one. Thanks to the sloping terrain on which the house is built, both floors benefit from direct access to the outdoors. The main entrance is located beneath the portico and is reached by climbing a few steps, leading into a welcoming living room with a dedicated dining area. On this floor, guests will find a double bedroom and a twin bedroom with joinable beds, the latter featuring a French window that opens directly to the outside.

Property Summary

Nestled in the open countryside of Civitella Marittima, in the heart of Tuscany, Italy, Cottage Violapo is a charming and intimate vacation rental that offers a true retreat from the rhythms of everyday life. Set between two gentle hills and surrounded by a lush private park, this beautifully restored cottage invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with nature. Completely renovated at the end of 2022, and further enhanced with a major roof intervention featuring ventilation and insulation, the property combines rustic Tuscan character with modern comfort. Finishing touches crafted from simple, authentic materials — terracotta floors, stone-framed fireplace, and carefully chosen upholstery — create a warm and welcoming atmosphere that feels entirely at home in its natural setting. The property benefits from high-speed Internet WiFi connectivity, private parking, and an EV charging station for electric vehicle owners. The expansive yard of approximately 3,300 square metres of garden, enriched by flowering shrubs, fruit trees, oaks, and roses, extends into a further 10,000 square metres of flat open terrain, offering an extraordinary sense of space and freedom. At the heart of the outdoor experience is the non-heated rectangular swimming pool, available to guests from the last Saturday in April to the first Saturday of October, complemented by a dedicated wellness area that makes Cottage Violapo a destination in its own right.

Outdoors

The outdoor spaces of Cottage Violapo are thoughtfully designed to allow you to make the most of the surrounding natural environment at every hour of the day. The garden, a verdant expanse of lawn stretching across 3,300 square metres and framed by flowering shrubs, fruit trees, oaks, and roses, invites you to walk barefoot, spread a rug on the grass, or simply sit and absorb the tranquillity of the Tuscan countryside. A gazebo positioned next to the cottage provides a shaded and furnished outdoor dining area, complete with table and chairs, a barbecue, and a wood oven — the perfect setting for long summer dinners under a sky filled with stars, accompanied by the scent of burning wood and the sound of crickets. The exclusive wellness area is undoubtedly one of the most distinctive features of the property. The non-heated rectangular swimming pool, built in 2020, measures 8 by 6 metres with a depth ranging from 10 centimetres to 1.5 metres, and is equipped with night lighting. Adjacent to the pool, a 50 square metre solarium — partly lawn and partly paved — is furnished with sunbeds, umbrellas, and a gazebo with table and chairs ideal for breakfast. The pool is available from the last Saturday in April to the first Saturday of October. Completing the wellness offering is a Jacuzzi tub and a characteristic wooden sauna built in a barrel-like structure with a panoramic front window. The sauna interior is crafted from red alder and powered by a wood stove, with essential oils and honey available to accompany the ritual of a traditional Finnish sauna experience. Please note that photographs of the property were taken in spring, and therefore the blossoming of flowers and the colour of the garden grass may differ at the time of your arrival.

Property Summary

Nestled in the serene Val di Chiana between Siena and Arezzo, Albachiara is an exceptional vacation rental that places you just minutes from the enchanting hilltop town of Cortona, one of the oldest Etruscan settlements in Tuscany, rising 600 metres above sea level in the heart of Italy. This beautifully restored stone farmhouse, originally a farm shed belonging to the adjacent Leopoldine villa, has been completely renovated with meticulous attention to conservation and the careful salvage of all original materials. The result is a refined and welcoming country house where natural tones echo the colours of the surrounding earth, and simply yet elegantly furnished rooms create a warm, inviting atmosphere. The property sits on approximately 1 hectare of fully fenced grounds, offering guests complete privacy amid fields of sunflowers and sweeping views over Cortona. A lush, well-tended garden frames the outdoor living areas, while a non-heated swimming pool provides a refreshing centrepiece to the estate during the warmer months. Wireless internet connection is available throughout the property, and a dedicated parking area ensures convenient arrival and departure. The expansive yard, rich with flowering plants, fruit trees, and fragrant herbs, completes an outdoor environment of rare natural beauty and tranquillity.

Outdoors

The grounds of Albachiara are a celebration of the Tuscan countryside at its most generous and picturesque. The entire property is enclosed within a double border of leylandii hedging along the full perimeter, and from the entrance gate, a driveway lined with cypress trees and bushes of lavender and rosemary leads gracefully to the parking area and into the heart of the park. A large grassy expanse houses a rich and varied orchard featuring plums, cherries, peaches, and grapevines, while holm oaks, lime and lemon trees alternate with aromatic herb bushes and climbing roses throughout the garden. On one side of the house, embellished with camellias, rhododendrons, and hydrangeas, a wooden gazebo has been set up as a comfortable sitting area with a table and chairs. Close by, directly in front of the dining room French window, a wood oven and mobile barbecue invite al fresco cooking and leisurely outdoor dining. At the centre of the garden, framed by 2 majestic weeping willows edged with white roses, a large wooden portico structure draped in porcelain vine and furnished with a table and benches provides the ideal shaded outdoor living area. A wooden structure beneath the portico, accessible from the outside, houses the laundry room. The non-heated swimming pool, reserved exclusively for the use of guests, is open from the last Saturday in April until the first Saturday in October.
