About this house rental

It is a part of the complex of Villore. It is located beyond the country road that crosses our property. Frantoio's two floors are comprised of a fully equipped kitchen, living room and bathroom on the ground floor; two bedrooms (on request one with twin beds) and another bathroom on the first floor. Little outdoor space front of the kitchen door with table and chairs complete this apartment. Guests can use the large garden, the central court and swimming pool just crossing the road.
- Thanks to a careful restructuring, the Casale di Villore has remained intact over time. The interior design and rustic exterior combine in perfect harmony with the surrounding countryside. Looking from the windows of the old tower it is clear how the panorama is as it was in the past and the spirit of "old" Tuscany is still there waiting for it to be rediscovered by anyone who spends a holiday period at the Casale.
The village is divided into six apartments of different sizes but can also be rented as a private villa in its entirety.If rented separately, each apartment will have its own entrance, bedrooms, bathrooms, and private kitchen and customers will only share the outdoor spaces, including the swimming pool, with the other guests.
While, rented as a villa, customers will have the opportunity to enjoy the entire property privately and fully enjoy a holiday of relaxation and total independence. In this case the Sangioveto, Prugnolo, Cardisco and Morellino apartments will be unified with each other (with internal doors) and the entire farmhouse can accommodate up to 16 people.
All the apartments, and therefore the villa, have been furnished with great care by the owner, combining the old family furniture with original pieces of modern furniture.

Tuscan treasure

From beginning to end, my family thoroughly enjoyed ourselves at this wonderful recently renovated farm house. The infinity pool was clean with gorgeous views. The kitchen was well equipped for meal preparation. The grounds were absolutely lovely. One of the best times of our lives was spent here.

Perfect location!

Perfect location!

To say that we had a wonderful experience is an understatement! Antonio made the process very easy for us; I can't emphasize enough how helpful he was in making our stay enjoyable. He helped with directions, dinner arrangements and gave information on the local "must sees". His villa is in a peaceful setting with easy access to the Chianti area of Tuscany. We stayed in the independent house and enjoyed the privacy and breathtaking views from our garden. The apartment was very clean, comfortable and had everything we needed for our stay. The location is completely relaxing yet close enough to visit wineries, restaurants, and all the amazing sites in Tuscany. We are planning a return trip as soon as possible!

Tuscan Charm, beautiful grounds, great host

Tuscan Charm, beautiful grounds, great host

We had a wonderful time at Casale di Villore, Antonio was a very helpful host, and would absolutely recommend staying here. We stayed in the separate building and had our own patio off the back as well as our own parking area. Amenities such as the coffee maker, the toaster, and microwave worked great. The main building is so close, which made it easy to use the other amenities such as the washer/dryer, the pool, and the gardens. Even though you feel like you are way out in the countryside, this is a short little drive from Poggibonsi. Short day trips to all the great Chianti regions were easy, but I'd recommend a fun car for the windy-bendy back roads!

Beautiful countryside!

The property was beautiful! Our Villa was great. Not a lot of direction from owner on what things to see while we were there. The ad on Home away says there is wifi access. I was there for 4 day (and trying to work a little now and then). I was unable to use my compute to access emails or internet at all! Something to consider if you really need to work.

Great villa in Tuscany with pool and AC

Great villa in Tuscany with pool and AC

Very well maintained property arranged in a few apartments inside the old farmhouse with 2 separate stand-alone houses. Very clean, incredible infinity pool overlooking olive groves and vineyards. 3.5 km from a great mountain restaurant ‘Pistello’ in wine country. Slight drawback is that the villa is located 7.5km up a winding road from Poggibonsi, the nearest town. WiFi is challenging. Antonio was very helpful in meeting us and reserving a restaurant when we arrived later than planned. We are a family of 4 and would stay again.

Great location, historic property and comfortable amenities

Our group of four adults spent four nights in the Frantoio Apartment at Casale di Villore. The accommodations were as rustic and comfortable as we had anticipated. The overall property has marvelous scenic views of Tuscany. The location was central to the towns and sights we wanted to see. Above all else, Antonio was quite helpful ensuring that our overall experience, on and off the property, was excellent. I heartily recommend this property.

Ideal setting surrounded by spectacular countryside.

Ideal setting surrounded by spectacular countryside.

The property suited us in that we were in a rural location, but within close proximity of many beautiful villages and hill towns to explore. The accessibility of PAM and COOP supermarkets, and rail links were also a bonus. On site, the pool, table tennis, and boule provided opportunity to relax and play in idyllic well-maintained surroundings. Our accommodation did not disappoint, although an oven (instead of a microwave) would have been (for us) a useful addition. Sitting in the beautiful gardens in the evening watching the sun go down was a particular highlight. Thank you for your efficiency and friendliness pre and during our stay, ensuring that we had a wonderful holiday. Julia Murray

Very nice stay

Very nice stay

Very nice rooms, clean and nicely decorated. In our case two bedrooms/bathrooms and comfortable living room with adequately equipped kitchen. The garden was great with nice views, swimming pool, table tennis and balls pitch, all well maintained. May feel a bit isolated but you will find a restaurant in 5mins drive staying open till late. Only point parking lots could be a bit wider or protections to be put in place as car rental companies will charge the earth for scratches. Overall a great stay in beautiful Tuscany. Thanks Antonio and Camilla!

An idyllic Tuscan Villa. Truley in the heart of Chianti with close proximity to key places to visit.

An idyllic Tuscan Villa. Truley in the heart of Chianti with close proximity to key places to visit.

We stayed in the renovated olive press. A stand alone 2 bedroom 2 bath ideal for a family of 4 or as in our case 2 couples. One bath is en suite and the other downstairs which is a bit inconvenient and it has an awkward shower. Ok if you are really short! The grounds are spectacular. Literally on a Tuscan hill with an infinity swimming pool. We would stay there on a return trip. Antonio and Camilla were very helpful with eating tips etc. Ciao.

Beautiful property

Beautiful property

We stayed in Frantoio 3 nights in order to explore the Tuscany area. The pictures are accurate. The grounds are lovely. The town of Poggibonsi is 7 km down a winding road as is typical for Tuscany. Since it is a rural setting get your groceries before going up the road. Also note that you need to supply your own hand soap in the bathrooms and bath soap. This was new to me as other VRBO properties have had a starter of soap in the bathrooms so get that as well before starting up the road. We did not realize it until nighttime and did not want to go back to grocery about 15 or 20 min away so that's just a bit of info to help. The town of Siena is about 30-35 min away. The bathroom downstairs is a full bath although the tub is about half sized tub but would be perfect to bathe children but don't think an adult would be able to use it. No shower in that bathroom, only tub, but the one upstairs does have a shower. If you are there and it requires the heat to be turned on, heat is paid extra when you check out but it was just $20 Euros for the 3 nights we were there but if you were there in a cold time for an extended stay guess it could get a little pricey. The Frantoio is a separate house on the property and wi fi is free and there but you have to be right by window to pick it up. Kitchen has a small refrigerator and a cook top. No oven but I wasn't looking to cook anyway.

Peaceful villa in Tuscany

Peaceful villa in Tuscany

The villa was ideal for my wife and I and our daughter to spend a few days in Tuscany. It is in a quiet part of the countryside with beautiful views over hills and valleys and the property itself is also very attractive. We stayed in Frantoio, which has a kitchen and living room, and small bathroom (toilet and small bathtub for kids) downstairs and two bedrooms upstairs, one with an en-suite bathroom. The size and layout suited us perfectly and it was separate from the main building. This may be preferable for some in busy times, although the whole property was very quiet and private while we were there, even though I was told there were others staying there at the same time. Antonio was very friendly and helpful and helped make our stay enjoyable with directions and suggestions for the local area, and my wife and I really liked the wine his wife makes. The villa is an easy 7km drive from Poggibonsi, but follow the directions that Antonio provides as it is an easier route than the way our GPS took us the first time. That way was still very picturesque, through some beautiful scenery and a little village, but was slow winding and very narrow in a few parts. Overall we had wonderful stay with the only problem being that it was not long enough. The listing and photos were very accurate and the property very clean and well maintained. We did day trips to Siena, San Gimignano, Pisa and Lucca. I highly recommend this villa to others looking for a peaceful stay in Tuscan countryside with easy access to surrounding towns.

La casa di villore est sûrement le plus bel endroit au cœur du Chianti Classico. Le propriétaire Antonio est charmant et d'une aide précieuse. La propriété elle même est sublime dans un site enchanteur. La base idéale de vos explorations en Toscane. Nous y avons passé 2 semaines merveilleuses et l'avons quitté avec grand regrets. Merci Antonio.

We found this accommodation to be just ideal. It was immaculately clean and very well maintained, which was very important to us. We liked that it had the two bathrooms, making it convenient for two couples. The whole property was in a wonderful location, close to Florence, San Gimignano and Sienna and also the little villages of Chianti. We were made to feel most welcome, yet felt like we had our privacy. It was very quite as well. I would most highly recommend this property. We loved it!!

Wonderful stay

We stayed at Casale di Villore on a friend's recommendation and we did not regret it. The owner, Antonio, made us feel at home and provided us with usefull informations to make our trip memorable. The location is ideale, between Florence and Siena, the grounds are well maintained and what about the view, breathless. We had the opportunity to really enjoy the villa because everything is so close and can be done in a day trip. Our appartement was very clean and functional for our family of 4. We stayed in the Prugnolo. We would definitely recommend this villa to anyone. If we are to go back to Tuscany, this would be our place to go back. Thanks Antonio for a memorable stay.

Absolutely wonderful!!!

Absolutely wonderful!!!

We spent a week at Villore in June-July and it was a wonderful week. The house is in beautiful condition; hard to believe it's 800 years old given its well kept, modern amenities. The grounds were beautiful; the kids loved the pool. Large kitchen, very comfortable bedrooms, and more than enough space for our family of 6. The location was great; rural, but a quick drive to town, less than 30 minutes to Siena, San Gimignano, Monteriggioni, Chianti wine region. The host, Antonio, was amazing. He really, really takes care of you. You tell him what you are going to do, he tells you how to get there, the best place to park, the best places to see, the best time to see them. Every restaurant he recommended was amazing. He helped arrange wine tasting. He even got us tickets to the Palio dinners. Simply put, he was like a personal concierge, and he made the trip that much more special for our families. I wouldn't return to Tuscany and not stay in one of his apartments.
