Podere Osteria, Pienza, Siena and Chianti

The cypress-lined approach to this property near Montepulciano in Siena hints at its elegant grounds populated by willow trees and colourful potted plants, while the traditional stone exterior belies the contemporary interior. Sleeping eight in four bedrooms, Podere Osteria 8 is a light, well-presented, ground and top-floor apartment in which a large family or group of friends with children can unwind and enjoy both the excellent facilities and the views. Pale floors and white fabrics keep things cool inside, while bedrooms and bathrooms are more colourful with acid pinks and greens. Chandeliers and four-poster beds add a touch of grandeur against the odd rustic touch in a redbrick arch here or a terracotta urn there.

The large garden has multiple places for relaxing or passing enjoyable moments with your children, who’ll make a bee-line for the swings at the front of the property, while adults can join in on the swing chair nearby. Here also you’ll find two sets of table and chairs, one under a picturesque plant-covered pergola, as well as individual chairs in which you can just watch the world go by. With such generous, well-designed grounds complete with a private pool overlooking the vineyard-covered Val d'Orcia hills, there’s little need to step away – although the property has easy access to the historic southern Tuscan gems of Montalcino and Pienza.
