The farmhouse Monti 1824 in Casole d'elsa was built 1650 and restored in the traditional Tuscan style, with careful attention to every minor detail. When restructuring and renovating the house for rental apartment, we put ourselves in your shoes to make decisions that would provide a homelike environment of comfort and quality.
Located in the heart of the Tuscany countryside between Siena, San Gimignano and Volterra, the vacation accommodations are convenient for exploring the culture, nature and wine. Monti 1824 is within easy walking distance of Casole d’Elsa ( 1 km away) where you can truly enjoy the town life.
The concept of a family enviroment is related also to the holiday accommodations:made to be family friendly. The garden is contained and well kept , just the type of place that invites to sit outside to read a book , play games or drink a nice glass of red wine (Chianti of course !).
Monti 1824 offers 3 apartments and 3 cottages + a panoramic swimming pool.
The panoramic pool ( 6 m x 12 m) is set in a short distance from the farmhouse, so it is close enough reach by foot , but not too close that the fun and laughter will spill over into the garden. The area lends itself to a fun filled family holiday, especially when you are interested about the local culture, traditions and meeting the Tuscans. Casole d'elsa is just 1 km from the Holiday House ( there is a well mantained path , illuminated at night) and it is a lovely little town with an exceptionally packed social calendar. You will always find concerts , markets , activities and events that will bring you into the authentic atmosphere.
