Wonderful villa. We were a group of 11, older people down to 5-year old, and the villa was perfect for everyone. The building itself is extraordinary, the view spectacular, and the pool very nice.

We just returned from a week at la Villa ... what an amazing property! The villa itself is exactly as photographed. The owners have done a superb job furnishing every room. We were 9 adults and 3 children and were more than comfortable in the space without booking the additional two rooms. The location just outside of Montalcino is spectacular. We enjoyed many of the local restaurants, as well as two cooked meals on property prepared by the lovely groundskeeper. The villa is equipped with Wifi and has three dining tables...kitchen, dining room and a lovely covered area off of the kitchen. The pool was great...seems to have some sort of leak and chairs could stand to be updated, but that would be my only criticism. I searched for months to find a villa and I can honestly say this one is close to perfect!

C'est notre troisième séjour dans cette belle villa et nous avons l'impression de rentrer "à la maison" à notre arrivée. La villa est située dans une position spectaculaire idéale pour profiter de la belle campagne toscane, avec vue sur le château de Banfi et le petit village de Camigliano à travers la vallée. La gardienne de la villa est très serviable et est également une merveilleuse cuisinière. Le vin issu des vignes de la propriété est excellent et nous sommes tellement reconnaissants que les vignerons le partagent avec nous. La possibilité de louer des chambres supplémentaires si le groupe est plus important offre une grande flexibilité lors de la réservation de cette villa. C'est l'un de mes endroits préférés pour séjourner en Italie et je le recommande vivement.
