Podere Monticchiello

If you are looking for something impossibly pretty and romantic in a peaceful and remote location, few properties could be more perfectly suited than the endlessly charming Podere Monticchiello. Located in the famously gorgeous Orcia Valley and boasting views over the lush valleys of the area, 2km from the village of Monticchiello, this is an idyllic gem for those looking to get far away from the daily concerns and routines of life. A charming historic stone villa and out-buildings clustered among ancient trees and pretty pastures, the house looks like something from a storybook. Boasting eight bedrooms and nine bathrooms, the property is made up of a villa and annex that sleep up to sixteen comfortably in dreamy interiors that feature large rooms, a generous dining room, antique furniture, an original stove, several large fireplaces, exposed-beam ceilings, picture windows taking in the best views from the property, three different cosy living rooms, and three kitchen/living rooms, some bedrooms with canopy-draped four-poster beds, and more.

If you had to cancel a holiday last year or it just feels like a very, very long time since your last vacation (or it actually has been a very, very long time since your last vacation) then you will probably be chomping at the bit to ensure that you secure a getaway this year. With things improving and more and more destinations opening up and getting ready to welcome tourists, we have had a massive surge in villa bookings and many of our best properties are being snatched up. So, if you don't want to miss out, it is time to get thinking about planning your next trip. While some of our villas are completely booked up throughout the rest of the year, other wonderful gems still have pretty good availability for the rest of 2021. Here is a selection of just some of our Tuscan villas with the best availability for you to browse but we'd recommend that you book your villa in Tuscany soon or miss out!
Swimming pool

If you are looking for a villa with pool in Tuscany then you should hit the, “Swimming Pool,” filter just underneath our search bar when browsing our properties. However, it is worth bearing in mind that this will then give you a list of villas with access to private pools and those with access to public/shared pools. It may seem obvious what the difference between the two is but we thought it worth clarifying the specific differences between our villas with private pools in Tuscany and our villas with public/shared pools in Tuscany.

Both our villas with private pools in Tuscany and our villas with public/shared pools in Tuscany will allow renters access to a pool near their rental property. However, the villas with private pools are those in which only the renter and their party have access to the pool and pool area.
