Ideal for a luxury holiday combined with great hospitality.The extensive lawn is mainly grass to maintain the open space of the valley and not to restrict the view around the farmhouse.Terracotta pots with geraniums, wild roses and bushes of lavender and rosemary create a beautiful frame around the pool ( 5.15mx 15m h. 90cm a 1.70 cm).The large swimming pool is part of a landscaped terrace looking out over the countryside: it lies next to the villa from where guests can enjoy a spectacular view. Here guests canenjoy a long swim or simply relax poolside.All around tables and lounge chairs transform the area into a veritable outdoor salon, suitable for sun-bathing, conversing, cocktails or just spending time with family andfriends. The covered dining space with fireplace, pizza oven, barbeque, table and chairs will let guests enjoy unforgettable Tuscan sunsets.VILLA sqm 700In restoring the structure as a comfortable vacation house of exceptional character, the owners’ main aim was to respect the original features of the building.Rooms with wooden-beamed ceilings are well sized and open to the most beautiful views of the valley, with wheat fields, olive groves and cypress trees.The Gonzi family respected the traditional structure of the farmhouse and kept the house divided into two independent units: the ground level, once the stables, which canaccommodate ten people, and the top level, where the peasants used to live, which sleeps four more people.As a result, villa is the perfect setting for family reunions or groups of friends looking for an “oasis” of tranquillity, surrounded by art and culture.A laundry room with washing-machine, hangers, ironing board and iron is available for the guests.Ground floorOn the ground floor there is a fully equipped chef’s kitchen, a huge living-dining room with double doors opening to the front patio and to the back garden.In the smaller living room there is a large stone fireplace surrounded by wide red sofas spreading a warm and cosy atmosphere.Five spacious bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms complete the remaining space on this floor.The ground floor consists of:• 4 Double bedrooms• 1 Twin bedroom• 5 bathrooms(en-suite) 3with shower, 2with bath and shower + 1 service bathroom withshower• 1 Kitchen• 1 Living room• 1 Relaxing room• 1 Dining roomFirst floor:A stone outdoor staircase leads to the upper floor unit; four breathtaking arched windows overlook the valley and the huge oak tree in front of the house, creating an open anddynamic space.Another large stone fireplace offers an ideal retreat for afternoon reading.A fully equipped kitchen will appeal to those who love cooking, and the vistas and plants from the many windows are very pleasing to the eye.The first floor consists of:• 2 Double bedrooms• 2 Bathrooms(en-suite)1 with jacuzzi and shower, 1 with shower + 1 service bathroom withshower• 1 KitchenIncluded in the rental price:Welcome buffetMid-week cleaning 3hours cleaning on Wednesday with towels changeInternet wifiBath towelsBed linenPool towelsBreakfast continental breakfast for the first morning NOT servedNot included in the rental price: A/C €80 per dayHeating (GPL) €0,976 per literSecurity deposit €800Final cleaning €250Local taxes €1 per person over 14 years oldPets max 2. €100Check In: From 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM Check Out: By 10:00 AMSwimming Pool: Open from 09 May - 03 OctoberIncluded in the rental price:Welcome buffetMid-week cleaning 3hours cleaning on Wednesday with towels changeInternet wifiBath towelsBed linenPool towelsBreakfast continental breakfast for the first morning NOT servedNot included in the rental price: A/C €80 per day.Heating (GPL) €0,976 per literSecurity deposit €800Final cleaning €250Local taxes €1 per person over 14 years oldPets max 2. €100Check In: From 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM Check Out: By 10:00 AMSwimming Pool: Open from 09 May - 03 OctoberTo see the beautiful town of Pienza, as in a postcard, sitting down under a big oak the most ancient of the Val d’Orcia, you have to stay in the farmhouse "La Fontana", abeautiful country house not so far from the medieval town Monticchiello.La Fontana is located in the spectacular countryside of the Orcia valley, which has been renowned since the end of the first millennium as an important stage on the ViaFrancigena, the great medieval pilgrimage road from France to Rome.DISTANCES:Nearest Shop and Villages:Monticchiello (2 kms)CHIANCIANO 10 Km, PIENZA 5 Km, CORTONA 25 Km, MONTALCINO 34 Km.
