About this property

Stunning, historic 18c Farmhouse - with Private Pool (sleeps 9-13)

Fully restored 18C Farmhouse and a large private pool. The property has been subjected to the highest, no expense spared restoration to the most exacting standards. Set in the Tuscan hills, in a protected area of outstanding natural beauty, overlooking the fabulous Lake Montedoglio

The Farmhouse (Casa Mandorlo) sleeps up to 9, plus 1 cot.

In addition we have a separate apartment (Casa Susinetto) which sleeps 2 plus a cot for a child up to 18 months, and a 1 bed house (Casa Olivetto) which sleeps 2 adults.

Set in large, fully fenced secure grounds in the hills of eastern Tuscany, overlooking the beautiful Lake Montedoglio, the location is truly breathtaking and unspoilt.

Every ceiling is beamed and has the original hand-made panelled tiles. There are cut stone door and window surrounds throughout, and all the original terracotta floor tiles have been re-laid. All the rooms have high ceilings and the generously sized double bedrooms each have en-suite bathrooms. The house has it's own 15 x 7 meter pool. The farmhouse is over 250 square meters or 2690 square feet.

Good experience but some issues
The setting was beautiful and had lots of room for everyone! Ben was very responsive to our requests. The kitchen was well stocked. However there were issues: The dishwasher was broken and sent water over the floor and was not fixed over the 12 days we were there and with 9 people eating it was inconvenient to do all dishes by hand. We only had one fob for the gate which was inconvenient with two vehicles leaving at different times. Apparently the previous renters lost one opener and it was not replaced. The buildings were quite cold so had to make special request to get the heat turned on. We had to purchase our own replacements for toilet paper, garbage bags, and dishwasher soap. The pool items were broken so couldn’t use them. We did enjoy our stay despite the shortcomings.

Fabulous 50th Birthday Celebration
Borhgetto Calcinaia was the perfect location for my 50th birthday celebration. Ben, the house manager, and Dale were responsive and helpful throughout the reservation process and stay. We enjoyed several days by the pool, had a chef come to the house and prepare dinner, and ventured out to the many small, historic communities nearby.

Rustic cob-webbed filled Villa
The Villa was not up to my standard. It was too basic and not properly cleaned. The pool was broken and all during our 13 days stay it was not fix and thus not fit for us to use. But, a frog made good use of it. I real feeling I did not get my money's worth. So this is to warn guests who want a little bit of modern sophistication, like a microwave oven and a dishwasher, this villa does not provide either. Also, the beds were very uncomfortable. That's my review.

The property and surrounds are stunningly beautiful! Wonderful spaces and gathering spots; the kitchen has everything imaginable ( 2 refrigerators came in handy) . We really loved gathering around the lovely , huge outdoor table. Dale and Ben were responsive, delightful and entertaining communicators. We were also impressed with the detail and high quality of the House Book. This is a quieter side of Tuscany, with so much to explore. Only downside: Our time was too short!
