About this house rental

Palazzolo is a farmhouse surrounded by farm vineyards and part of a farm of about 490 acres. It has a private and fenced swimming pool 6x12m (i.e. 20x39 feet) in size and a private garden, with a beautiful view on Chiana Valley and Mt. Cetona and on Città della Pieve. Palazzolo is a self-catering unit suitable for families or groups of max. 10-12 people + 2-3 babies willing to combine a relaxing holiday in the countryside with the chance to visit places with archaeological, artistic and natural beauties in Tuscany, Umbria and Latium. Our house can be used as a starting point for daytrips to Florence, Rome, Siena, Cortona, Perugia, Assisi, Orvieto, Chianti, and the Trasimeno Lake area as well as other beautiful destinations (i.e. Mount Amiata). The house combines the comfort of a villa with the rural location of an old farm-house and provides you with plenty of space to live in. The swimming pool is generally open from the first week of June to the last week of September. If you come from Scandinavia, one of us speaks Finnish and Swedish. Since September 2015 we have to collect on behalf of the Municipality a tourist tax of 1,00 euro/person/night that is due only for the first 5 nights and only by the person who are at least 14 years old

This was a week long birthday party. Friends and family came together from Europe and the USA. I could not have chosen a better place. The farmhouse is just perfect. The setting is superb. The hosts are charming, kind and unbelievably helpful. We had a superb time and want to thank Maria and her husband for their care and kindness. The town, Citta della Pieve - just up the hill, is enchanting. We hiked, we dined, we wine tasted, we explored hilltop towns. We had a phenomenal time. A fairy tale come true.

We stayed here for 3-4 weeks in the month of September with our family of 14. We had our Grandparents, parents and kids with room and space for all of us. The farmhouse was very clean, spacious and actually better than advertised. The property was in great shape, the pool was the cleanest of any vacation that we have done. You are close to many small villages/towns, wineries, train station; all within 15 minutes. Maria was an amazing host that went above and beyond to ensure our stay met expectations. From having some food and wine ready for us at the house when we arrived, to cleaning the pool every morning, having fresh linens whenever needed, a clean of the house once per week, and helping with any local recommendations that we needed; Maria helped every step of the way. Thank you again Maria!

We had a lovely stay at Citta della Pieve. Lots of space and the house was spotless with everything we needed. The pictures on the website did not do justice to the house and surroundings - even better than I expected (and I had high expectations!). The pool area is spacious and inviting and the pool itself brilliant for our keen swimmer teenager and adults. Quite deep though - would need to keep a close eye on novice-swimmers. Maria and her team were very helpful and we very much enjoyed our holiday.

We spent a week in this lovely house which is spacious and private. Lots of rooms and bathrooms. A nice kitchen and access to two refrigerators and a big freezer for ice and ice cream. Lovely pool which was cleaned every morning.Very beautiful landscape and view. Very nice host who responded immediately to every question. We recommend it and would definately consider coming back. With two small kids, aged 2 and 4, we furthermore appreciated that the pool area is fenced and can be locked.

Mit dem Titel dieser Bewertung ist wirklich nichts übertrieben dargestellt … nicht nur das Haus ist wunderschön, traditionell Italienisch eingerichtet und alles wie auf den Bildern gezeigt sondern auch die Umgebung in der dieses sich befindet ist top. Das Anwesen ist riesig in Mitten von Weinbergen - perfekt, um entspannt seinen Urlaub zu verbringen. Der Pool wird früh morgen nach Absprache immer frisch gerichtet und ist ebenfalls super schön. Maria (Vermieterin) und ihr Mann sind zuvorkommend und super freundlich. Die beiden kümmern sich sogar um die Organisation von Extrawünsche, wie zum Beispiel einer Weinverkostung. Alles in allem einfach nur ein Traum 💭

Perfect Property!
Perfect Property!
We are two families comprising 4 adults and 5 teenagers. We had the most wonderful stay here! The property is even more beautiful than it appears in the listing. It is incredibly spacious and is beautifully open plan which means plenty of room for everyone whilst still allowing us to be together. Maria met us upon arrival and explained everything we needed to know about the property, she even led us to the closest supermarket in Chiusi so we wouldn’t lose our way. The property has everything you could possibly need for your stay and the views from the terrace are spectacular. The swimming pool was perfect and I have never had more comfortable sun loungers on any holiday. The closest town, Citta della Pieve, is just beautiful with fantastic restaurants and quaint, narrow, cobbled streets. Maria was on hand to answer any questions or queries that we had and was a very gracious host. Cannot recommend this property highly enough!!

Large, nice house in a quiet location, yet close to Citta della Pieve.

Very nice house with large swimming pool. Amazing view and quiet location, yet close to restaurants and shops in Citta della Pieve. Maria and her husband are very nice people who are always willing to help. Ideally located to visit Umbria and the south of Tuscany. We had a wonderful vacation!

Uitstekend familiehuis
Uitstekend familiehuis
Groot huis, grote tuin, mooie ruime slaapkamers en badkamers, heel veel privacy, prachtig terras en diverse overdekte plekken om in de schaduw te kunnen zitten. Prachtig afsluitbaar ( belangrijk met kleinere kinderen) ruim zwembad. Minpunt is, weliswaar afhankelijk van de windrichting, dat er heel veel treinen passeren wat echt geluidsoverlast geeft. Uitzicht is schitterend. Uitstekend verzorgd en schoon, zeer vriendelijke en servicegerichte eigenaren.
