Wonderful Tuscan country house
This property and our holiday in the Crete Senesi region of Tuscany definitely surpassed expectations. Located on the edge of the charming village of Chiusure, this property is a true country house. The house is set in beautiful grounds and offers even more than the pictures suggest. Fully equipped with everything you need, you can relax by the pool and admire the rolling Tuscan hills. The Crete Senesi region of Sienna is breath taking and refreshingly authentic and allows you easy access to the popular hill towns around Val d’ Orcia and Siena. The Monte Oliveto nearby is stunning and is home to the working monastery of Abbazia di Monte Oliveto Maggiore. You can find all amenities in the nearby town of Asciano. The owner of the property was exceptionally helpful and ensured we had all the equipment and information we needed to have a truly great holiday in Italy. As a family we have visited Umbria and Tuscany a number of times and this is definitely the best house and location we have stayed in.

Beautiful villa close to many beautiful villages
Having dreamed of a villa for over a year, there was high expectations... and this villa did not disappoint. The pool was big and cool after a morning exploring. The kitchen was modern equipped with all the things you need to be comfortable and the large dining table inside and outside ensured many happy occasions. The bedrooms, all upstairs, were big with comfortable bedding. We just couldn’t fault this place. Guido was helpful when needed but we really didn’t see him much. Thank you Guido for letting us stay at this wonderful villa. We had a fabulous time and would recommend to all.
