Holiday Home Description

Casa Quercia is an apartment of 120 square meters (approximately 1290 square feet) which sleeps eight persons. It has a porch and a splendid view of the Tuscan hills. Guests of the apartment can use a shared garden and a shared swimming pool.

It has four bedrooms, a large living room with fireplace, a kitchen with fireplace, three bathrooms and access to a porch equipped with table and chairs.

The apartment is part of an ancient farmhouse, which is located on the slope of a gentle hill, in an area of the Tuscan countryside which remains untouched and partly wild.

You will be far away from busy roads, and you will find that the air is clear and perfumed, and will be able to enjoy a peaceful stay. You will be able to look around in any direction, and your sight will span over a wide horizon of hills, which intersect like the waves of a green sea, with plots which are brighter where the land has been sowed and planted with vineyards, and darker where there are small oak woods.

On a nearby hill you will be able to spot the profile of the medieval burg of Montalcino. Montalcino is the village that lends its name to one of the most famous wines of Tuscany and Italy: the “Brunello di Montalcino”. The village is known for its excellent wine makers and the splendid wine cellars open to visitors.

You will be halfway between Montalcino and San Quirico D’Orcia, just a few kilometers south of Siena, in an area which is not crowded by tourists, yet in an good position to visit Siena and the main art cities of Tuscany with short trips.

The farmhouse is surrounded by 2 hectares (5 acres) of land, partly garden and partly vineyard. It is made up of three ancient buildings, made of bricks and stones. The buildings have been built around a nice yard paved with stones.

In the farmhouse there are six apartments of different sizes. The owners reside on the premises, in a building close by, and will be kindly and discreetly available for any request or information.

The three buildings on the farmhouse have been restored with loving care, and the characteristics and the charm of once-upon-a-time country houses have been kept untouched both in the outdoor looks and in the indoor decorations. Doors and windows are made of wood, the floors are tiled with terracotta tiles, and the ceilings are made with long wood beams and terracotta bricks. The decoration is rich in items of local handicrafts.

The swimming pool is located in the middle of a large lawn, which is decorated with bushes and flower pots, and it has a 360-degree view of the surrounding hills. It is equipped with deck chairs and beach umbrellas, which are available for all the guests of the farmhouse. The size of the swimming pools is 14 x 7 meters (46 x 23 feet), and it is 1.2 to 2.40 meters deep (3.9 to 7.8 feet deep).

As a guest of the farmhouse you will also have available a large and comfortable shared TV lounge, equipped with satellite television, a table tennis table, a bowls lane, a barbecue and a shared laundry room.

During the summer time an old railway section is reactivated for tourists. The line goes from Siena to Grosseto, and crosses the Montalcino area, making it possible to visit the area where the Brunello wine is made on board of an old steam train.

The farmhouse is 8 km (5 miles) from the closest village, which is San Quirico D’Orcia, where you will find shops and restaurant. You will only be able to reach the village by car. On the premises there is a large parking lot.

Casa Quercia is located on the ground floor, and you will be able to access it from the garden. You will enter in the living room, in front of which there is a roomy porch with a view of the garden and of the swimming pool. The porch is equipped with deck chairs, table and chairs.

In the living room you will find two comfortable sofas and a table with chairs.

The kitchen is equipped with four-burner cooker, oven and refrigerator with freezer. Additionally, there is a second fireplace that can be comfortably used as a barbecue.

Two of the four bedrooms have a double bed and an en-suite bathroom with shower. The third bedroom has a double bed and the fourth bedroom has two single beds. Guests staying in the third and in the fourth bedroom will be able to use a third bathroom, which has a shower.

The house is on the ground floor, but please note that to move between the rooms there are some steps.

The furnishing is warm and welcoming, in the rustic style of the Tuscan country houses. The floors are tiled with terracotta tiles, and the ceilings are supported by wood beams. The house is decorated by several ancient tools, which bear witness of the ancient rural life of times now gone.

The house is equipped with central heating.

The house is 9 km (5.5 miles) from Bagno Vignoni, 18 km (11 miles) from Pienza, 32 km (20 miles) from Montepulciano, 21 km (13 miles) from Montalcino and 22 km (13.5 miles) from Mount Amiata. Siena is 51 km (31 miles), Chianciano, with its famous spas, is 33 km (20 miles), and Florence is 140 km (87 miles).
