About this property

Podere La Fonte is situated in a most spectacular position just below the ancient castellated village of Radicondoli. It has magnificent uninterrupted views over the Cecina valley and the surrounding hills.
At night you can see the lights of Volterra, San Gimignano, Colle Val D'Elsa and many other villages nestling in the hills all around you. Florence is one hour away and Siena, Volterra and San Gimignano just forty minutes by road. Lovely local walks and natural pools in the nearby river Cecina. There are swimming pools within easy reach and in an hour you can drive to and enjoy sandy beaches just like the ancient Etruscan people did.
Your hosts Emanuela and Marco look forward to welcoming you to their home. They will also give you every assistance to help you discover and understand the opportunities offered by the surrounding countryside and tourist attractions. Whether you choose to stay put, or explore the surrounding countryside and famous sites, Podere La Fonte has the answer for you. You can choose to rent as little as one of the tree double rooms (with no cooking facilities), one of the two self catering apartments or all the accommodation on offer for a larger group .
Il Susino" is the ideal accommodation for two…. but can also be rented jointly with IL NOCE (see details) for larger groups who like to holiday together and yet enjoy an element of independence.

Wirklich toll!

Eine super schöne Unterkunft für alle, die das toskanische Land erleben und genießen wollen. Emanuela und Marco sind sehr herzliche Gastgeber, die bei Fragen immer weiter helfen und tolle Tipps für Ausflüge in die Umgebung haben. Unbedingt auch das eigne Olivenöl probieren! Die Wohnung ist sehr gemütlich und mit allem ausgestattet, was man zum Leben und Kochen braucht. Die Sitzgelegenheiten im Garten sind herrlich und man genießt einen tollen Ausblick! Bis zum Dorf Radicondoli sind es nur 5 Minuten zu Fuß, es ist sehr nett, wenig touristisch und findet man mit einem kleinen Supermarkt, Bäcker, Metzger, einem Café und drei Restaurants alles, was man braucht. Die Unterkunft war für uns der ideale Ausgangspunkt für Ausflüge in die Umgebung, so ist es nach Norden nicht weit nach San Gimignano und Volterra und nach Süden in das oVal d'Orcia und zur heißen Quelle San Filippo. Und auch zum Meer sind es auch nur etwa eine Stunde Fahrt. Wir können die Unterkunft wirklich rundum empfehlen und kommen bei unserem nächsten Urlaub in der Toskana auf jeden Fall wieder!

wieder mal Radicondoli

Nach vielen Jahren waren wir wieder mal bei Emanuela und Marco im Podere La Fonte. Wie immer waren sie sehr gute Gastgeber! Einiges hat sich verändert im Laufe der Zeit. Aber die Wohnung (Susino) war immer noch top: sehr gemütlich, gut eingerichtet mit allem notwendigen und die Aussensitzplätze zum Geniessen. Die Lage nahe beim Dorf ist toll, die Restaurants im Dorf gut und die Aussicht auf die Landschaft traumhaft!

sejour au calme à la campagne

Très bon accueil de Marco et Emanuela. Logement propre et confortable de plein pied et au calme. Linge de maison fourni. Nous avons apprécié les légumes du jardin et l'accueil avec une bouteille de vin de la production du domaine. Le village est a 7 mn a pied et il y a 2 épiceries et 4 restaurants dont un qui fait de très bonnes pizzas. Beaucoup de visites à faire aux alentours (Sienne, San Gimigiano, Voltera, région du chianti...)

About the host

Hosted by Emanuela e Marco Garosi

Emanuela Giua and her husband, Marco Garosi, own a beautiful, self-sustaining (and village supporting) farm on the northern slope just below the village of Radicondoli. Podere La Fonte is an agriturismo, a working farm that provides room and board to paying guests. On any given day in the spring or summer, you will find them tending the garden, olive groves, vineyards and orchards of their extensive spread. In autumn they are harvesting grapes to make wine, and picking olives to press into an exquisite organic olive oil.

Why they chose this property

”Podere la Fonte is located just three hours north of Rome in the walled medieval town of Radicondoli. With about 600+ residents, the villagers of this ancient castle town live peacefully and work together as a close-knit community.

Surrounded by olive groves, prolific vineyards, fields of produce and dark-green forests, Radicondoli’s villagers purchase the freshest fruits and vegetables at their community co-op, drink excellent local wines, and use hand-pressed olive oils, grains, meats and cheeses in their flavorful Tuscan dishes, Plus, the forests provide an array of mushrooms, herbs, and wildlife that are added to the villager’s stew pots.

What makes this property unique

It's almost impossible to summarise the allure of Tuscany in a few words; whether it's the magnificent scenery, cultural richness, historical heritage or climate. For some, it's the charm of the coast while for others it's the rolling hills, olive groves and vineyards. The seemingly timeless city states will excite history buffs whereas foodies will be enchanted by the cuisine and vintage wines. Of course, whatever your perspective, this is one of the most beautiful and interesting parts of Europe.
