Description
Property Summary
Nestled in the heart of Tuscany, Le Colombelline is an exceptional vacation rental offering an unparalleled experience in one of Italy's most celebrated landscapes. Situated just 4 km from the historic borgo of Montepulciano, this magnificently restored 18th-century farmhouse stands as a testament to the harmonious blend of traditional Tuscan architecture and thoughtful contemporary design. Built originally as a farmhouse dedicated to the cultivation of cereals, olive trees, and pastures, Le Colombelline has been carefully and skilfully renovated to preserve its authentic character while introducing refined modern comforts, making it an ideal retreat for families, groups of friends, or couples seeking an exclusive countryside escape in Italy. The property spans approximately 300 sq m across 3 floors, presenting an exterior of typical Tuscan stone and brick construction, while the interior reveals high ceilings adorned with chestnut beams, exposed terracotta tiles, and prestigious travertine flooring in shades of beige throughout all levels. Guests benefit from complimentary Wi-Fi internet access, a dedicated 4-car open-air parking area conveniently located just outside the property where two local dirt roads converge, and an expansive yard of approximately 1,800 sq m of manicured lawn surrounding the house and swimming pool, enriched with olive trees, holm oaks, cypresses, rosemary, aromatic herbs, and laurels. The property extends across approximately 15 hectares of unfenced terrain encompassing vineyards and arable land, offering a sense of space, privacy, and immersion in the authentic Tuscan countryside that is truly rare. Le Colombelline has been subjected to a thorough check-up by a technical responsible before the beginning of the season to ensure consistency of the description, accessories listed, and their present state of operation and maintenance, guaranteeing quality, cleanliness, and comfort to all guests.
Outdoors
The outdoor spaces of Le Colombelline are as carefully conceived as the interiors, offering a seamless connection between the house and the breathtaking Tuscan landscape that surrounds it. The external dining area, positioned between the dining room and the private annex reserved for the exclusive use of the property, is shaded by a natural reed canopy in compliance with the landscape constraints of the area and is served by a barbecue. Located just a few metres from the kitchen and adjacent to the stone paving that leads to the swimming pool, this al fresco dining space is perfectly suited for long, convivial meals in the open air. One of the ground floor bedrooms opens directly onto a pergola facing the pool, where an outdoor sitting area invites guests to enjoy relaxing aperitifs with the Tuscan hills as a magnificent backdrop. The property is accessed via a wooden pedestrian gate with manual opening, and the 4-car open-air parking area is situated just outside the property boundary. The laundry room is located next to the parking area, accessible from the outside. In the downsloping part of the estate, young olive trees that have recently been planted, the vineyard, and hints of woodland typical of the hilly Tuscan landscape complete the picture. The multiple direct exits from the ground floor to the garden allow for effortless enjoyment of this exclusive outdoor environment. The non-heated swimming pool is rectangular, measuring 12 x 6 m, with a depth varying from 0.90 to 1.40 m, and is lined in pearl grey PVC with a border in porous stone. It features chlorine purification and 2 large chiselled steps for easy access to the water. Positioned 15 m from the house on terracing slightly lower than the ground floor, the pool is reached from the outdoor dining area along paving in frosted Barberino stone and bricks, and via a series of stone steps from the bedroom with French window. The fenced pool area is equipped with a stone solarium surrounded by lawn, sunbeds, umbrellas, small tables, and a pergola with an outdoor sitting area. A cold-water shower is available, and the pool is illuminated both internally and externally with twilight lighting. Located to the south-east, it enjoys constant sun exposure throughout the day and offers a relaxing and romantic view of the surrounding vineyards. The pool is available to guests from the last Saturday in April to the first Saturday in October.

Property Summary
Nestled in the heart of Tuscany, La Casa di Elsa is a beautifully restored vacation rental set in the medieval hilltop village of Santa Fiora, Italy. Dating back to the early 20th century, this charming property was originally a humble rural house, with animal stalls on the ground floor and peasants' quarters above.

The original stone walls, exposed on the exterior and visible beneath the plaster in certain interior spaces, speak to the property's authentic past, while carefully restored pieces of furniture, including 2 old madie, traditional kitchen cupboards once used for kneading and storing bread, now serve as elegant and functional storage units.

Distances and Attractions
Santa Fiora, considered one of the most beautiful villages in Italy, is just a short walk from La Casa di Elsa via the charming wooded paths that begin near the property's main entrance. The village is steeped in history, built around the remains of the ancient Aldobrandesque fortifications, of which the Clock Tower is adorned with ceramics by the Della Robbia family, with battlements dating back to the 19th century. Nearby, the Palazzo Sforza stands over the remains of the walls of the old castle, while the Church of Saints Flora and Lucilla houses the celebrated terracotta altarpieces of the Della Robbia Florentine workshop. The Peschiera, a tranquil mirror of clear water dedicated to trout breeding, forms a small and enchanting park immersed in silence, beside which stands the Church of the Madonna delle Nevi, built above the sources of the river Fiora, visible through a glass floor. Exploring the village further along Via Carolina and through its various streets, you pass through the historic Jewish ghetto, whose appearance remains remarkably similar to what it would have been in the mid-16th century, culminating in the Piazza del Ghetto, the only square in Santa Fiora accessible from a single entrance. The Mercury Mine Museum is also open to visitors within the village. Beyond Santa Fiora, the wider region of Tuscany offers an extraordinary wealth of cultural and natural attractions. Etruscan towns rich in history, such as Montepulciano, Montalcino, and San Casciano di Bagni, are within easy reach, as are the great art cities of Tuscany. The well-connected road network makes short excursions straightforward, and the sunny beaches of the Tyrrhenian Sea are approximately one hour's drive away.

Podere Capanne is a portion of an old farmhouse set in the hills overlooking the charming medieval village of Rigomagno and much of the wide Chiana Valley. You will find the house in a landscape covered mostly by olive trees, interrupted here and there by small vineyards and lush oak woods. Ancient farmhouses, always in privileged positions, emerge from the vegetation, completing a natural landscape of rare beauty. A delight for your eyes, an enchanting place for your holidays.
You will find the house on the edge of a large olive grove of about 3 hectares, tended like a meadow that, from the top of the hill, with a harmonious succession of natural terraces, slowly slopes down towards a wooded gully.
A few steps from the house and immersed among the olive trees is the completely fenced swimming pool for your exclusive use (size 5x10 m - depth 1.10-1.50 m - open from 01st May to 30th September), a green oasis for your summer days. In front of the house you will have a large fenced-in courtyard equipped with a table and chairs on the nice porch, where you can enjoy grills and good local wine. Deck chairs, sun loungers, table tennis table, barbecue, 2 bicycles and shaded parking space are also available. Your pets are welcome at Podere Capanne.

You will also have the opportunity to taste and buy excellent extra virgin olive oil produced by the owners, who still follow ancient traditions in the production of the famous local oil.
The house is located just a few kilometres from Siena and Arezzo, and we certainly recommend a visit to both. The former, admired all over the world, will welcome you with its ancient cobbled streets and the majesty of Piazza del Campo, while Arezzo, on the other hand, more reserved and less well-known, will surprise you with a delightful and rich historic centre, typical cafés and excellent trattorias.
