Beautiful garden with breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside including the towers of San Gimignano. Nice swimming pool of 6x3 meter, 1,40 hight, with a calm and sunny wood deck in a wanderful position overlooking tuscany's hills.

Is the perfect location to visit historical places as Certaldo, Volterra, San Giminiano, Greve and many others cities and spots of art and culture... It also offer a lot of opportunities for trekking and natural activities. The house is like the ancient family's memories keeper, elegantly furnished with antiquities, old pictures and objects and an extensive library of rare and vintage books.

This was an AMAZING stay, the house is just as it looks on the pictures (or even better). Barbara sets the house up perfectly and is very attentive to our needs, as well as Maria Angela the one who helped with cleaning. I can not recommend this house enough, it is truly the perfect holiday home. LOVED IT.

Wonderful character filled Tuscan home

Our family had a great restful time staying at this character home. We had a great time using the pool and having alfresco breakfasts and meals near the pool. Beautiful views of the Tuscan countryside and olive groves extending from the house. Thank you Barbara for a wonderful experience and opening your family home to us. We will definitely be back!

The Tuscan experience you imagined

A central location for exploring Florence, Siena, San Gimignano. A drop-dead gorgeous view of sun-dappled hills. An enchantingly historical Tuscan house with old-time fixtures. A refreshing pool to cool off after touring each day. It was exactly the Tuscan experience we were hoping for!

Authentic, rustic tuscan property with gorgeous views

We spent a few weeks in August 2019 on this really authentic and rustic tuscan property, in the heart of the Chianti hills. We were looking for a quiet, secluded location with great views and Barbara’s house was above our expectations. The scenery is second to none. The house is old and full of character, feels like living inside a little museum and to us was like a journey back in time. Definetly an unique and rare experience that is worth living. The property has a small and very clean swimming pool, regularly maintained during our stay - such a treat during hot summer days. Great outdoor eating area, overlooking Chianti hills and SanGimignano in the far distance. The property is well located - approx within 25-40 min driving from Certaldo, San Gimignano, Florence. Less than an hour to Sienna and Pisa. Probably due to very secluded location of the property, the wifi is not the fastest.. but again, the beauty and charm of the property easily overcome the need for modern technology. Altogether, we felt privileged to spend our holiday in such a special place and would come back anytime. Thank you to Barbara and Mariangela, With best wishes Raluca and family

Wonderful, Comfortable Family Home

Our extended family enjoyed a wonderful week at Barbara's comfortable, quiet home. We had 2 grandparents, 4 parents and 4 children. The house is absolutely a family home--filled with pictures of generations and generations of Barbara's family and lovely, homey touches of a lived-in home. Everyone in our family enjoyed the pool and the outdoor covered patio. We cooked in the family kitchen and had postcard perfect meals under the covered patio. The view from the patio and pool is "ultimate Tuscany" with all the vineyards, castles, gorgeous skies and colors of the region. The kitchen is easy to use. The beds are firm and very comfortable. The baths and showers are easy to use. The property is a wonderful size for lounging and relaxing. We spent days at the property just hanging out. We also drove to nearby castles and towns like Certaldo and San Gimignano. We e-biked in Montespertoli (where we also went to the grocery store at COOP). Our whole family also had a number of meals at Restaurante La Lombricaia that is nearby and also has a wonderful view. Our family hopes to be back to this magical spot. It was easy to exchange questions and check in and out as well. Thanks Barbara and family!

I do not recommend this property

The primary reason for not recommending this property is due to our dealings with the host but there are other issues with the property. As has been said by other reviewers this property is very cluttered with very little space for renters to put any of their own things. The appliances are old, much of the china is chipped and we ended up buying our own pans rather than use the old aluminium ones in the property! The internet did not work at all for us, and Mariangela. who checked us in, told us immediately we arrived that the internet was very bad in the house - in contradiction to what is said in the property description. We also were not told until the day of arrival that there is an electrified fence on the property and since we were taking dogs this was a significant issue for us. Our main problem though was dealing with the host after we had the great misfortune of breaking a bedside lamp, which we immediately reported to her, but for which she wanted to claim a value of EUR290. Admittedly the host's English is not very good but I am sure she understood when I asked for proof of this value to provide to our insurers but the only response we had to this from her was to forward a VRBO message saying this amount had been debited from my credit card, with no reference to my request. She also wanted to charge us EUR30 for a broken bottom shelf in her old refrigerator which we had found broken at the end of our stay, as we informed Mariangela who was again checking us out. This was clearly not safety glass, and we strongly felt should not have been our responsibility as all we did was to store food in the refrigerator. We, of course, contacted VRBO to contest the charge for the refrigerator shelf and to ask for their assistance in gaining the needed valuation which resulted in their refunding the whole deposit taken, so I can only assume they had as little luck as we in getting a valuation from the host. We should not have had to do this. All we wanted was an honest valuation for the damage and to be met with a rude silence from a host who had been far from silent in other messages is simply not acceptable. One other serious issue we had was that Mariangela was not willing to accept the tourist tax from us saying she knew nothing about it, despite the host's legal requirement to collect this. So, we had the trouble of contacting the Comune di Montespertoli to sort this out which, again, is not acceptable behaviour by the host.

Amazing, gorgeous, perfect Tuscan experience!

From the moment we arrived at this outstanding property until our departure (after a horrendous thunderstorm!), we had an incredible, lovely stay at this ancient yet updated and well appointed property. The location is isolated yet close to everything we needed. We cooked in the gourmet kitchen and ate outside most nights. We had the most relaxing, therapeutic stay prior to my son’s wedding in Florence. Can’t wait to return! La vita e bella!

Un tuffo rigenerante in un’atmosfera da sogno!

Abbiamo trascorso la nostra breve vacanza di famiglia ( 5 notti, cani compresi) in questa casa incantevole ed unica. Il posto è meraviglioso, circondato da una natura e da un panorama mozzafiato. In questa casa si sentono solo il silenzio e il canto delle cicale; è completa di tutti i confort, non manca davvero nulla per trascorrere una vacanza all’insegna della tranquillità e del relax. Qui si respira un’atmosfera unica, la casa è vecchia ed è questo che la rende così speciale! Nulla di moderno, solo tanta storia ,tanta classe e tanti ricordi. Gli ambienti sono grandi e confortevoli( la cucina poi e’splendida!), le camere sono spaziose ed accoglienti . Gli ambienti sono puliti e curati. Sicuramente ci vuole una particolare attenzione poiché l’arredamento è antico e per alcuni aspetti delicato, ma la consiglio a tutti gli amanti del genere “non moderno”,perché merita davvero di essere vista ed apprezzata! Il giardino è molto curato, è tutto recintato ed è circondato da olivi secolari. La tettoia con il grande tavolo in legno accanto alla piscina ha reso le nostre giornate e le nostre serate piacevoli e fresche. Ringrazio particolarmente la Signora Barbara per la fiducia data al nostro gruppo un po’ complesso e ringrazio Mariangela per la sua gentilezza e per la sua disponibilità nell’’accoglierci e nel farci sentire a nostro agio. Ci auguriamo di poter tornare presto in questo luogo meraviglioso.Grazie, Clementina

It's a pity that the vacation in such a wonderful place goes by so quickly!!!

We would like to sincerely thank the landlady Barbara and her whole family for making this house available to us. A very stylish place furnished with many personal things from different generations let us dream who might have lived in this house in the past. Each room in this house is like a small photo album and you feel as if you were the personal guest of the whole family. In addition, the house is located on a hill with a fantastic view of the vastness of Tuscany. Daily visits of the hoopoe delighted us as well as the flash of the hundred fireflies. A unique spectacle. There is no better place to relax, to enjoy the view, to make excursions. I would like to mention the kitchen: forget about induction cooking, combi-steamers and microwaves. Here you can cook as your mamma or nonna used to do. On gas, with countless dented but stylish pots and pans and with plenty of space to prepare the delicious dishes. In short, one of the most beautiful houses we have ever rented. Schade, dass der Urlaub an so einem wunderbaren Platz so schnell vorbei geht!!! Wir möchten uns ganz herzlichst bei der Vermieterin Barbara und ihrer ganzen Familie dafür bedanken, dass sie uns dieses Haus zur Verfügung gestellt hat. Ein sehr stilvoll und mit vielen persönlichen Dingen aus unterschiedlichen Generationen eingerichteter Ort liess uns ins Träumen geraten, wer wohl früher in diesem Haus gewohnt haben mag. Jedes Zimmer in diesem Haus kommt einem kleinen Fotoalbum gleich und man fühlt sich, als sei man der persönliche Gast der ganzen Familie. Dazu befindet sich das Haus auf einer Anhöhe mit einem traumhaften Blick in die Weiten der Toscana. Tägliche Besuche des Wiedehopfes begeisterten uns ebenso, wie das Blitzlichtgewitter der hundertfachen Glühwürmchen. Ein einmaliges Spektakel. Es gibt keinen besseren Ort zum relaxen, um die Aussicht zu geniessen, um Ausflüge zu unternehmen. Erwähnen möchte ich noch kurz die Küche: vergessen sie Induktionskochen, Kombisteamer und Mikrowellen. Hier kann man kochen wie das früher die Mamma oder die Nonna getan hat. Auf Gas, mit unzähligen verbeulten, aber stilvollen Töpfen und Pfannen und mit viel Platz zur Vorbereitung der köstlichen Speisen. Kurzum, eines der schönsten Häuser, die wir je gemietet haben.

Le calme de la Toscane dans un cadre privilégié

Nous avons passé une semaine exceptionnelle dans la magnifique maison de famille de Barbara. La vue est splendide, la piscine agréable et le jardin reposant ; bref, un vrai dépaysement. Bonus : la maison est décorée d’anciens meubles et gravures, et on y ressent toute l’histoire et l’héritage familial.

appréciation mitigée

Le site de cette propriété est magnifique et jouit d'un paysage toscan magique à chaque heure de la journée. Je suis pourtant désolée de devoir dire que cette propriété n'est pas du tout accessible pour des personnes en fauteuil roulant.Les salles de bain en particulier ne possèdent aucune barre d'appui et le danger est donc toujours présent.Dans la chambre des enfants l'échelle métallique pour les lits superposés est inutilisable et doit ètre réparée ou abolie car là aussi il y a danger. La literie est obsolète, la plupart des matelas sont en laine. La batterie de cuisine, casseroles et poèles sont dangereuses, manches branlants et casseroles en aluminium percées au niveau des vis, pas de four à micro-ondes. Quant à la wifi,elle est pratiquement inexistante mais ceci est dù au lieu isolé. Malgré tous ces inconvénients pour des vacanciers sans exigences particulières séjourner à Montespertoli reste un privilège et nous en garderons donc un beau souvenir.

A true taste of Tuscany

We really enjoyed our 8 day stay in Barbara’s beautiful home in Tuscany and hope to return there in the future. Set amongst it’s own olive groves, this authentic Tuscan farm house provided ample room for our family of two adults and three teenagers. The house has a genuine Tuscan family feel to it that has clearly been built up over the generations it has passed through Barbara’s family.  Barbara was easy to communicate with in the build up to our stay and replied swiftly to our enquiries.    Upon our arrival at the property we were met by Barbara’s neighbour Mariangela who showed us around and made us feel at home. Any questions we had during the course of our visit were always quickly answered by Mariangela who lives down the track in the adjoining property.   The property is well equipped and has all you need  for modern living but retains a rustic feel to it. We had some great days out to Pisa, Florence, San Gimignano and Lucca but we really enjoyed our days at home by the pool. The pool  and the covered area next to it were the perfect place to relax , enjoy some food and soak in the incredible views of the Tuscan landscape. By day you can see the medieval turrets of San Gimignano 10 miles in the distance while at night  we spent many an evening sat out and  counted shooting stars as we revelled in the thousands of stars that adorned the sky.   The local restaurants we sampled were friendly ,welcoming and within walking distance. Mariangela provided excellent directions to the local shops a short drive away in  Montespertoli as well as to other larger COOP stores in the towns beyond. We can thoroughly recommend that you sample a bottle of the local Chianti on offer and take back with you a bottle of olive  oil produced from the groves that surround this charming country home.  A magical experience. Grazie Barbara and Mariangela.

A nice house in a lovely part of the world

We had a lovely 2 week stay here. The property was perfect for us, big enough for 4 adults and a teenager, very quite and peaceful but close enough to all the major sites in Tuscany. We quickly got into the habit of 1 day by the pool followed by a day sightseeing. Florence was within a hour and we visited 3 times. Please bear in mind that the house is very old and full of the owners collections, but has all the requirements of the modern times; good showers WiFi etc.

Maison pleine d’histoire et au charme fou parfaite pour visiter une région comme la Toscane

La maison de Barbara est une maison de famille remplie de livres, de photos anciennes, de beaux meubles, de porcelaine. On s’y sent immédiatement comme chez soi. Elle est située en haut d’une colline avec une vue époustouflante sur la campagne toscane. On peut prendre ses repas dehors sous un grand auvent près de la piscine ou devant à l’ombre des arbres. C’est un plaisir de préparer les repas ou le café dans l’immense cuisine très bien équipée Car la maison a beau être très ancienne tous les équipements nécessaires sont là Machines à laver, matériel de cuisine, très belle vaisselle, barbecue ....On peut même en septembre manger directement les figues sur les arbres Et la situation géographique est parfaite pour visiter la Toscane. Surtout ne pas manquer de dîner à la trattoria Montalbina juste au dessus de la maison C’est un régal Bref un paradis que nous quittons avec beaucoup de regrets Merci Barbara !

An authentic experience in the beautiful heart of Tuscany. We felt like locals and loved it!

We had the best time staying at Barbara’s ancient farm house! The house is like a museum with antiques and artifacts from days gone by. The old family photos and furnishings make you want to know more about the history. Being a 200 year old house - you have to be ready for it to feel that way. If you are looking for air conditioning and modern conveniences, this is not the place for you. But if you are looking for an experience that pulls you back in time - complete with gorgeous views, easy drives to Siena, San Gimignano, Pisa, and other gorgeous Tuscan towns, where you can settle in for a few days and enjoy the local flavor - this is a great choice for you. We really enjoyed relaxing in the pool during the hot summer afternoons and cooking some wonderful meals on the covered deck. Barbara was out of town during our stay, so her adorable neighbor Mariangela welcomed us and made us feel at home. We ran into her a few times around town - which just made us feel more like locals! On our last night we ate dinner at the local Trattoria Montalbino - within walking distance - and had a wonderful experience and delicious food & wine! The only changes we suggest are some fans in the bedrooms for the hot summer nights - and a new mattress in one of the bedrooms. Other that that, we had a wonderful experience that we will never forget. Grazie Barbara and Mariangela!

Sobre o anfitrião

Anfitrião: BARBARA CASTELLI GATTINARA

Imagem do perfil do anfitrião
Barbara, an antropologist and his husband Elio, an humanitarian medical doctor, have been travelling and living in several countries of the world toghether with their three daughters who have born in this ancient family house. In the last years Barbara and her family live in Italy for long span of time, where they manage with great passion this beautiful country house and its olive grove producing an extra virgin oil DOC.

When they have time to go in their farmstead of Montalbino, Barbara and her family find again the peaceful of those houses that have an history and a soul: the old "cotto" tiles, the ancient books and old family's things, the traditional fireplace, the large country style kitchen with the hanged pots and the garden with a wanderful view. To have a breakfast under the arbor looking at the tuscany's hills is unforguettable as well as have a "bruschetta" with the new olive oil got directly in the "terracotta" jar in the cave.

Barbara and Elio live now in Rome and for few months are abroad for work. They have then decided to rent for short time this charming and ancient family house offering it to whom loves Tuscany and arts.

Por que o anfitrião escolheu essa propriedade

Barbara and her housband, live between Rome and Venice and for some months they work abroad. They decided to rent for short periods this old family house to share it with travellers who enjoy and love Tuscany, the countryside, the arts and the beauty of this unique region.
