Borga la Chiusa

We loved our stay at Borga La Chiusa. The ambiance of the house was very Italian but yet with modern amenities. It was very enjoyable visiting Siena and the whole Tuscan area. The property also had a beautiful pool.

Amazing place to stay! Would highly recommend!!

We were so impressed with the villa. It was even better than we had expected. It was so charming, clean and in perfect shape. The area was so quaint and picturesque. The location was perfect and easy to get to so many other towns to tour around. We would highly recommend it to anyone looking for the perfect Tuscan experience. Francesca, our host, made everything very easy for us.

Just what we needed.

My sister and I had a wonderful time here. It was just what we needed at the end of a long day traveling around Tuscany. Francesca gave us much information about the Coop, places to park and restaurants. We loved the patio on the villa. It was so nice and private. We would definitely come back here again.

We absolutely enjoyed our stay at the villa. Simone and Francesca were always available when we had questions, provided us with useful information before we left (grocery stores, where to go, bars, restaurants, etc). The villa itself was stunning and just what I pictured when thinking of a Tuscany stay! We also arranged for a dinner at the villa cooked by Francesca and Concetta at the villa. It was so good and a perfect way to end a beautiful day in Sienna. The food was amazing and so fresh! We would definitely book this villa again!! Thank you so much for making our stay memorable!

Lovely, Private, Perfect base for exploring Siena area

This villa suited us perfectly and Simone and Francesca were standouts among hosts. The beautiful jasmine-laden patio and manicured grounds create such a relaxing ambiance and we loved relaxing by the pool in between visiting regional villages and wineries. Francesca and Chef Vanna prepared us a beautiful and delicious meal at home, such a nice treat from always dining out. We ate simple meals at home and really liked having the washer for our clothes. A Tuscan villa experience yet private although we enjoyed meeting and talking with other personably guests. Will return!

Wonderful Tuscany Villa

We had a wonderful stay at this villa! The location was perfect for exploring the central Tuscany region, but a car is definitely needed for a stay here. The villa was beautiful! We enjoyed the living space both inside and on the patio. Francesca, the villa owner cooked us a very tasty Welcome dinner the day we arrived. She was also available for any problems, but we did not have any issues. Simone, the property manager, was prompt with answers to any questions we had prior to arrival. If we ever return to this part of Italy we would definitely stay here again.

Bellisimo

I would stay here again. The property was stunning and beautifully maintained. Fresh flowers awaited us in the unit. The owner quickly responded to my every question. The weather was colder than expected, and when I asked if we could use the fireplace, wood was delivered to the door. They were also delivered when we asked about ping-pong paddles and balls for the table. Gratzie Simone and Francessea.

Excellent home base to explore Tuscany

The house was wonderful and centrally located. The pool was so nice, the lounge chairs were clean, and the pool water was the perfect temperature to cool off after a day in the Tuscan sun. We shared the pool with a rather large group in the neighboring house, but had it to ourselves for one day before they arrived. The sitting area in the rear courtyard was a great place for lunch or afternoon snacks, and we also enjoyed eating dinner on the front patio. It was convenient to have the washing machine and our clothes dried quickly outside on the drying rack. Francesca was a great host and made sure we had everything we needed. A toaster would be a nice addition to the kitchen. We would definitely stay here again!

This property is absolutely beautiful. We had a great stay once we found it. We had a lot of GPS problems finding it but finally called Simone and he explained it. The pool was so relaxing and there are so many beautiful villages nearby. Loved it.

Wonderful place to explore Tuscany!

We had an amazing week here exploring Tuscany! The house was well appointed and super clean - a very comfortable place to spend our time when we weren’t out exploring the nearby towns! We were also traveling with our 7mo old baby, and we were supplied with a crib and high chair that worked really well for our son. We were able to cook dinner at the house almost every night, and enjoyed wine outside on the patio in the evenings - it was a great place to call home for the week, and we would definitely come back and stay again!

Beautiful, amazing villa for group or large family.

We were 4 couples who spent a week in this lovely remodeled villa. It exceeded our expectations. Bedrooms were all large with nice bathrooms and wonderful views. The outdoor area was perfect for relaxing after a day trip to one of the many day trips. Francesca cooked us two amazing dinners. Best food we had in Italy!! She was wonderful. We hated to leave!
