About this property

Apartment in Beautifully Restored Medieval Tuscan Village, 7klm from Volterra

The beautiful restoration of this small complex of four buildings, containing 24 high quality private apartments and a swimming pool of uniform depth, 14x7m, took place in 2008. The architecture and design of Podere le Volpaie has followed the traditional local style. It contains beamed and tiled ceilings, terracotta tiled floors, loggia style balconies, and a stone exterior. The original farm shape, with four buildings around a well and courtyard, has been preserved. Apartment B6 has one king-size and one twin bedroom, two bathrooms, and is located on the top two floors of a 4 storey building, reached by a private stone staircase. With a 360 degree panorama of rolling Tuscan hills, it nestles tranquilly, 7klm beneath the beautiful and historic town of Volterra, famed for its alabaster work and 4km below the charming Etruscan village of Montecatini Val de Cecina, with easy access to Pisa, Sienna, Florence, San Gimignano and the sea. The communal pool is available from mid May until the end of September.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

About the host

Hosted by Garrahan

Host profile image
We are two retired academics with a passion for France and Italy - their food, wine, history, culture, landscape, people. It was our lifetime dream to have places of our own there, and to share them with friends and family. Now we are happy to share them more widely with others who we hope will develop their own love affair with these beautiful countries.

Why they chose this property

We chose this apartment for a variety of reasons. First, we loved the drama of the countryside around Volterra - its spectacular views. Each season presents a different aspect.
Then we found it very accessible for the airport, cities like Pisa, Siena, Florence, but also the sea and wonderful hilltop villages.
Volterra is a fabulous little town with a roman and an etruscan past, and you can never get tired of it, but it is not overrun with tourists.
We loved the high specification put in place by the developers who insisted on sympathetic features which respected place and time.
The complex allowed complete peace, but also a sense of community for those who like to be sociable. The beautiful pool is a natural gathering place.
Once we had seen it, we couldn't settle for anything less.

What makes this property unique

Although the property stands alone in the countryside, it benefits from a good road passing close by - no rough tracks to negotiate - and a convenient village with all conveniences just 3kms away.
