Om overnatningsstedet

Klassisk, privat villa med betagende udsigt - Privat Pool

Posizione! Posizione! Posizione! (Oversættelse: italiensk for 'Sted! Beliggenhed! Beliggenhed!').

Indtast denne ejendom, og du indser straks du har vovet sig ind det bedste Italien har at byde på - udsøgt udsigt, sublim mad, uovertruffen vin og usædvanlige vejrforhold. Som enhver Italophile vil fortælle dig, det toscanske Val D'Orcia og Kreta Senese (og især området nær Montalcino) er den mest stemningsfulde og sensuelle del af Italien. Der er virkelig ingen bedre område - som vi har fundet i 20 + års erfaring. Disse billeder, du ser på de kalendere, med vinmarker, rækker af cypern og hilltowns - thats Val D'Orcia / Montalcino ...

Det er trods alt en FN UNESCO Heritage Site. Og med god grund. Den blotte skønhed er overvældende. Det er det område, der nægtede at lade milliardær medier magnat og tidligere italienske premierminister Berlusconi til at købe en anden (godt, måske 4. i hans tilfælde) hjem! Det er også det område, hvor de filmede The English Patient, Romeo og Julie, Only You, The Gladiator, Stjæle Skønhed, og Tea Med Mussolini.

Midt denne pragt er sat den smukke og privat ejendom er kendt som Villa Brunello på San Sebastiano. Dette århundredgamle, uafhængig, fire-værelses, to-bad, 3250-kvadratmeter hjem har alt at gøre din italienske ferie mindeværdig. Blot fem kilometer fra Montalcino (to-og-et-halvt i luftlinje), denne gamle gård har udsigt til at dø for - fra Mount Amiata i syd til Siena i nord. Og det fungerer som den perfekte punkt, hvorfra at besøge de smukkeste landsbyer og byer i Italien - Montalcino, Allesino, Pienza, San Quirico D'Orcia, Volterra, Firenze, Montepulciano, Siena, San Gimignano, Monterrigione, Pisa, Cinque Terra, og Rom.

Eller stoppe ved de gamle romerske bade i Bagno Vignone og klostrene på Monte Oliveto Maggiore og Sant Antimo, ... eller vandre i nogle af de smukkeste landskaber på Guds jord. Hvis du føler flittig, tage en italiensk madlavning eller sprog klasse i nærheden i klosteret, hvor de filmede The English Patient. Der er 2 verdenskendte italienske sprog skoler meget tæt ved, hvor du kan tage klasser på alle niveauer og forskellige grader af fordybelse.

Placeret på to frodige acres omgivet af udsøgte villaer og vinmarker, har denne meget specielle hjem blevet nænsomt restaureret i og uden for at sikre din ultimative nydelse. Og bedre endnu det er omgivet af vinmarker, olivenlunde og bjergbyer i hver retning.

Åbn smedejern forreste porte omgående transporteret til La Vita Bella - en ært grus gårdsplads byder dig velkommen til din første visning af den private kirke St. Sebastian og den grønne og generøse toscanske landskab. Når du er inde, dine valg bugne. Nyd en smuk udendørs gårdhave lige uden for franske døre fra hvor du vil nippe limoncello på rolige toscanske aftener. Eller lounge i den formelle stuen. med hulkehl lofter og smukke tidstypiske møbler og mindeværdige kunstværker og keramik. Læse, overveje eller skrive i den rolige komfort i studiet med udsigt over kirken og Montalcino op på bakken.

Friste af betagende spisestue med bugtede lofter, hvorfra du vil nyde dit toscanske fester. Herefter vil du finde et stort moderne spisekøkken med alle de apparater og redskaber, der er nødvendige for at forberede lækre italienske køkken. Ved siden af ​​køkkenet på første sal er en enorm stue / stort værelse med otte-fods med otte-fods pejs, to fulde sofaer, mange stole, og en stor skærm 48 "plasma-tv. Lige ved den enorme store rum og køkken er et sæt af franske døre, der fører til to vidunderlige lanais / pergolaer tilføje udendørs rum til din bolig, og som har udsigt til værftet, vinmarker og dale - og om natten lysene i Siena. Længere nede ad bakken, pool og pool-området er en oase i sig selv, med ekspansiv udsigt over dalen og mange vingårde. Huset, værftet og pool er meget privat.

Nedenunder er der også et komplet badeværelse og et studie / kontor / soveværelse med fold ud sofa for ekstra sove.

Ovenpå finder du fire smukt og autentisk indrettede værelser. To har queen-size senge og to har to enkeltsenge, der kan samles til queen-size senge, hvor de ønskede. Hvert værelse har smukke sengetøj med mindst 400-trådantal plader og pudebetræk. Og bedre endnu, hvert værelse har en betagende udsigt over Montalcino dalen. Der er også yderligere to badeværelser på dette niveau, meget smagfuldt indrettede.

I tilfælde af at du ikke allerede kender (og vi er sikker på at du gjorde), Montalcino er det sted, hvor Brunello (langt den bedste vin i Italien, hvis ikke verden) er produceret. Og fra Villa Brunello på San Sebastiano, du er ti minutter i bil og til fods til de bedste vingårde og vinsmagninger i Italien. Vi har talt over 50, og på ingen måde er, at fuldstændig. Banfi, Barbi, Fanti, Tornese, Biondi Santi, Campanna, du navngive det, de er her. Fra $ 30 til $ 700 per flaske.

Der er også dejlige restauranter, enotecas og gelaterias i nærheden i tilfælde af du får lyst til at forkæle off lokaler. Mange af dem har udendørs spisning med fantastisk udsigt. Du vil hurtigt finde ud af, er det umuligt at finde et dårligt måltid. Men for de tidspunkter, hvor du er bare alt for mæt til at forlade, vil du finde poolen, værftet, og udendørs og indendørs levende, spisestue og afslapning rum, der skal fortryllende. Det er, hvad Italien handler om. Du kan aldrig ønsker at forlade.

Stay Amongst the Vineyards

The best thing about this villa is its location in the heart of the Tuscan vineyards. There are over 260 wineries in the Montalcino area, and this place is right in the middle of them. The views from the backyard are fantastic, and the pictures don’t do the beautiful vistas justice. We had a lovely week in this area. Check-in was great and the host who met us had a lovely welcome gift of local baked goods and a bottle of wine. He, Matteo, was great the entire time — very helpful and responsive! The kitchen was well-appointed with everything you need to cook there. We didn’t use the formal dining or living room, and spent most of our time there outside or in the kitchen/family room area. The pool was lovely and was cleaned twice during the week. There were ample beach towels provided and six chaise lounges — three with pads for comfort. The most important thing to know about this property which wasn’t clear to us from the listing is that there are four bedrooms upstairs and only one bathroom. The two other bathrooms are downstairs, but there are no bedrooms. We were two couples traveling together, and the upstairs bathroom was challenging to use because the door scrapes loudly on the tile floor to open or close it. We felt like it would wake up our friends if we used it. It would be an easy fix to trim the door! The stairs are steep and a little uneven, due to the age of the property. Suggestions: Upgrade the bathroom towels and provide bedroom extension cords.

Heaven in Tuscany!

One of the best views of Tuscany from your very own house, which is much more beautiful than the photos. We stayed for 2 weeks; could've easily stayed for another month. Close proximity to the lovely town of Montalcino as well as well known vineyards made the stay even more rewarding. Communication with the thoughtful caretaker and property manager was easy and they were always accessible.

Beautifully located villa in the heart of Tuscany countryside

We spent three weeks in this villa. There were four adults and three children. All appreciated the magnificent location of the house. We ate all the time outdoors and could choose between two great dining areas. Both afforded magnificent views of the countryside. The garden and pool were a source of delight and relaxation for all. The house is large and roomy with four nice sized bedrooms and three bathrooms. At times when the house was occupied with seven of us, we would have welcomed a bigger fridge and barbecue! Also, we have a preference for steps into a swimming pool with a shallow end. However we did get used to the ladder into the pool and the kids managed with being out of their depth. The pool and garden were impeccably maintained every week by a charming gentleman. Overall we had a wonderful three weeks and have very fond memories of our holiday.

Amazing Villa

We spent 10 days at the villa. It was the highlight of our trip. It was a great home base for day trips to Firenza, Pienza, Montipuliciano, Montilacino and other small towns. We also visited a number of wineries and tastered numerous bottles of Brunello. The view at night from the villa's patio was spectacular. We watched an amazing sunset every night. The villa was very clean and well maintained. The owner was very helpful in answering our questions. I would highly recommend the villa to other travelers.

Dream Vacation in Tuscany

Great house, quiet setting. Everything needed was in the kitchen; we just had to move in and unpack our personal belongings. What made our month stay so enjoyable was the owners genuine interest in making certain we had plenty of information on the best and most important things to do and see. Dave really made an effort to document the area restaurants and wineries so we could allocate our time to the best ones. Without his good advice, we would have wasted a lot of valuable time and missed some really great food and sights. The house is in a great location with close proxcimity to rail transportation. Lots of great little towns within a hours drive.

Classic Tuscan Experience

This Tuscan villa has a lot of character, stunning views, and sits on a hill surrounded by vineyards! The owner was very accommodating and made the reservation process smooth and seamless. With our stay came tons of recommendations about the area, where to eat, sights to see and tips to make your vacation in this breathtaking region a memorable one. The villa was clean and well-maintained. Everything was in working order when we arrived. The pool was always cleaned of leaves, and ready for us to cool off from the summer heat. The kitchen is well equipped with everything needed to prepare meals. The villa's caretaker always came and checked on us (but not intrusive), making sure that everything was in order. The villa is well-situated in Montalcino, close to the hilltop town for restaurants, enotecas and shopping, yet far enough to have privacy surrounded by a gorgeous Tuscan landscape. La Dolce Vita indeed!

Hello, Dave, We're very ...

Hello, Dave, We're very nostalgic about our time at what we are now calling "our" home in Tuscany (we wish it were ours!). It exceeded our expectations - the website doesn't do the views justice, and we were so surprised at how much larger the rooms are than they appear in photographs. We had so much trouble dragging ourselves away from the pool, the terrace, and the view, so we didn't do nearly as much sightseeing as we'd thought we would - but it was all good! The location is perfect - close to everything, but far enough away that it's quite private and quiet. We were in awe. You have a slice of heaven at Villa Brunello at San Sebastiano!

The four of us had a thoroughly delightful time at the Villa. The views were truly breathtaking from every angle. We had several great dinners at I Poggolio in Buonconvento. Enjoyed all the surrounding towns and Sant Antimo Abbey for Gregorian Chants. The pool and Villa were very clean and well-cared for. Brunello wine is wonderfully rich. Hope to visit again.

Hello Dave, We wanted to...

Hello Dave, We wanted to write and let you know what a lovely time we had at your villa in Montalcino. We had our children ages 15 & 17 with us and Dennis' mom - a great time was had by all. Moreno was delightful! We left a day early to go to Florence and he appeared Friday morning to say goodbye to us. I'm sure you know how fortunate you are to have him working with you. He was very patient with me and my newly learned Italian. There were only a couple of times I had to rely on my picture dictionary ;) We didn't have a chance to meet his wife, but I'm sure she's just as much a treasure. The place met and exceeded our expectations! We thoroughly enjoyed the surroundings and the town of Montalcino... Il Moro Ristorante became a favorite of ours as well -the food was amazing and very affordable. On our second visit we were joined at our table by Roberto. He had a bottle of wine sent to our table and shared stories with us -we were able to speak in Spanish with him. My only regret is that I neglected to take a picture of the lady who owns the little market Moreno took us to when we arrived on Sunday afternoon. Her name is Mirella. She was adoreable, we visited her store frequently during our stay. Dennis and I are looking forward to planning another trip for just the two of us. It was a great family vacation, but I think we'd like to do alot more wine tasting in the region! Thank you again for opening your home to strangers -what a leap of faith, we are so grateful to have found you. Two of the pictures I've included are of the tiniest hummingbirds I've ever seen -they were feeding in your lavendar bushes...amazing! I feel like I'm echoing the sentiments of others when I say we'd really like to look into how to go about purchasing a property in the area. I took over 650 pictures during our 2 weeks in Italy and none are as breathtaking as the sunsets from your back yard, or the morning views of the sheep being herded out to pasture. We can see why you love it. We look forward to our next visit. Have a wonderful remainder of the summer! Ciao! Yvonne & Dennis

My husband and I spent a wonderful week in Dave's Villa Brunello with three other couples. Florence and Rome were also on our itinerary, but the week in Tuscany was by far the best part of our trip. It was very warm while we were there, but always relatively cool on the hill with the pool as a great place to cool off on the hottest of days. Our day generally included sight-seeing in the earlier part of the day and drinks by the pool in the afternoon. Seeing as we all fancy ourselves to be relatively good cooks, we alternately cooked at home and went out in the evening. We were pleased that the kitchen had everything we needed and dining outdoors with the views and the sunsets was better than any restaurant. Taverna del Grappolo Blu was a big hit with our group; we were waited on by the charming and gracious owner. Montalcino was, of all the quaint mountain towns, our favorite. Worth going in for Friday's market day with all its colorful people and fun shopping. We did have the pump go out while we were there, but Dave was able to get the caretaker, Moreno, out to help us very promptly. One suggestion is to make sure that you have a European cell phone with you for those emergency calls.

My entire family stayed in Villa Brunello for two gorgeous weeks in April, soaking in the intense green of the hills and the wonderful wine. It was the ideal location for jaunts across Tuscany and Umbria as well as for sitting out on the patio all day being mesmerized by the view. We loved driving the tiny country roads, getting lost on purpose, and exploring the towns filled with history. Moreno was prompt and helpful with everything that we needed, and we felt welcomed by the Italian people. It is now our dream to own a villa there too someday. I recommend taking all of Dave's suggestions of local sights and restaurants (we were never led astray with those) and visiting the "Il Paradiso di Frassina" vineyard just up the road where they play classical music to their grapes! Thanks for a great stay.

The Villa Brunello was a perfect location from which to visit the historic hill towns of Tuscany. It was everything we expected and more, very spacious and breathtaking vistas. Because the home is on a peak with vineyards spilling down the hillside, we had a perfect perch for observing preparations for the grape harvest. Viewing seeminly endless acres of vines loaded with grapes from our very private rose filled patio was a treat, regardless of the time of day. At night we could see the lights of Siena in the distance as we sipped our Brunello around the pool. Moreno, the friendly and capable caretaker, kept the pool spotless. The extensive notebook with instructions for everything in the house down to making coffee added to the ease of our stay. Suggestions for restaurants were most helpful, with Il Grappolo Blu becoming our favorite in Montalcino. Exploring Montapulcino, Cortona, San Gimingano, Volterra, Pienza, Buonconvento, Siena, Florence, and Torrenieri, always with a wonderful lunch and wine, was such great fun. We fell in love with the Italian people and their passion for history, wine, food, and life. Great vacation.

David, My husband and I,...

David, My husband and I, with our daughter & son-in-law spent a glorious week celebrating our granddaughter's first birthday, Tuscan style, at beautiful Villa Brunello. Waking to the warm Tuscan sun, breakfast on the patio overlooking the lovely vineyards and beautiful Tuscan countryside, a swim in the pool, and then off to the many little hillside towns. We loved wandering the streets of Montalcino with the locals, visiting Siena and San Gimignano, and another of our favorites--Pienza, then dinner in one of the many great restaurants you recommended, or visiting the surrounding shops for homemade pasta and delicious sauces, cheeses, salami, etc., and of course, wonderful Montalcino wine, and then home to a grand meal on the patio while enjoying the spectacular sunsets. We were all ready to become permanent residents of Tuscany. Thank you for sharing your lovely home! Betty

Your villa was the highlight of our incredible vacation. Twilight with a bottle of Brunello Montalcino, some toscano pecorino, and a loaf of rustic bread, amidst your garden overlooking the valley, was heaven on earth. Montalcino was a simple, yet sophisticated, medieval town. During the day, we lived next to your beautiful pool. We cannot wait for a return visit and can plan more future dreams.

What a great property! The views are spectacular and we so enjoyed the sunsets each evening while eating our dinner on the patio. It was great to have the pool to entertain the kids, while the adults sat under the umbrellas and read books. Your caretaker, Moreno, was very helpful with all of our needs and saved the day when he was able to replace some fans for us. Montalcino is a nice little town with great restaurants and shops and the wine from the area is fabulous! We will definitely recommend this place to our friends, who after hearing about our trip, are eager to plan their own. Thanks.

Dear David, I just wan...

Dear David, I just wanted to let you know what a great time we had at your villa and how much we enjoyed ourselves. The recommendations you provided were spot on, and the views, the yard and the furnishings were more than we could have hoped for. I will be sure to recommend your property to any of my friends. I just wanted to let you know that my sister and her extended family stayed at a nearby property for twice as much money, and actually liked your (our) place better. Of course, I am not saying you should raise your rates. ;) In the end we were happy that our research had paid off as we did not find your site right away with our intial searches and that we booked as early as we did. My kids want us to buy a place now and even picked their favorite villages in the area. By the way, I counted over 70 rosebushes. Everywhere we turned, we lost our breath from the beauty. Of couse, we brought home some brunnello to reminisce.

Derfor valgte værten dette overnatningssted

We traveled to Tuscany and Umbria for 10 years and this area (the Val d'Orcia) around Montalcino is our favorite -- for the views, wine, hidden natural thermal baths, museums and restaurants.

Derfor er dette overnatningssted unikt

The towns, views, wine, hidden natural thermal baths, museums and restaurants. This is classic Tuscany - the scenes you see on all the calendars is basically the view from the house and backyard.
