Vacation Rental Description

This apartment rental in Tuscany is called The Podernovo estate and is a farmhouse built in the typical Tuscan style, the outside of which has been preserved in its original form even during the recent renovations which were focused on the room interiors, to improve the restful vacation experience and with comfort in mind.

The Podernovo di Monticiano estate includes two farmhouses which have a total living space area of 1000 sqm (10,000 sq ft) with the buildings made of fine local stone, where the dominant pink colour shows typical green and blue stripes.

The apartment rental in Tuscany consists in two buildings. In the main building, shaped like an 'L' are the apartments for renting. They take up the first floor, the middle area and the second floor.

The second building has a modern, well-equipped, semi-professional kitchen, a large dining-room, a solarium that on warm days can become an open-air dining-room and a large reading/ playing /party room of sqm.80 .

About Cooking Holidays Siena

Located in Tuscany, Province of Siena, the Podernovo Estate is within close driving distance of many local attractions:

30 km Southeast of Siena,80 km South of Florence40 km from the sea Massa Marittima- Follonica12 km from the Hot Sulphur Pools of Petriolo10 km from Abbeys, medieval villages40 km from Volterra and S.Gimignano45 km form the Orcia Valley150 km from RomeThe nearest airport is Florence at km 95, but both Pisa (km 160) and Rome (km 250) airports are within easy reach.

Bus services to and from Siena and to and from Grosseto run twice a day.

The apartment rental in Tuscany is located in the 'Farma and Merse Natural Park one of the best preserved natural reserves of the entire Tuscany and even of the centre of Italy. The two rivers Farma and Merse flow through its territory and in their crystal clear waters, where water prawns still grow and reproduce themselves.

15 km from the estate are the sulphur pools of Petriolo which run next to the Farma river.

 

The vegetation is of the typical Mediterranean kind: pine-trees, strawberry bushes, cistus, fern, juniper, viburnum and many wild flowers including a special variety of heather.

In its large clearings grow sunflowers and wheat, although most of the ground is taken up by forests and woods.

The area is criss-crossed often by well marked paths, for walks or rides by bike or by horse.

At 30 minutes' walk through the woods, or 10 minutes' drive, are the unique Abbey of San Gargano and the Cappella di Montesiepi connected with the medieval legend of king Arthur and the Sword in the Rock.

The property is adjacent to the centre of the old town of Monticiano and can be easily reached by a short walk of 600m along a road lined with helm-oaks, the typical evergreen 'lecci' of Tuscan countryside.

Monticiano (370 m above sea level) offers all the facilities and services that one would need during a holiday – supermarket, bank, pharmacy together with a weekly market selling products from the not distant Maremma. There are also an enoteca, a restaurant, and a pizzeria.
