About this property

Farm house with character - Certaldo

The apartment belongs to an independent building (100 meters from the farm centre), and is surrounded by gardens well equipped for outdoor life. The house has been built and remodeled in many periods of time, around a old chapel of the year 1000. The apartment is a typical Tuscan farm house with its well preserved characteristics: the room arrangement, the big fireplace in the kitchen, the pavement of old terracotta tiles and the wooden roof. The apartment is fairly big, with large and cool rooms, and fully equipped for a confortable stay.

Ein wunderschönes Ferienhaus in einer wunderschönen Umgebung
Die Mieter sind sehr freundlich. Die Zimmer im Haus sind großzügig. In der Küche ist an alles gedacht. Um das Haus herum gibt es viele Plätze, wo man sitzen kann, sonnige, schattige, mit herrlicher Aussicht, oder in einem geschützten Garten. Der Mieter stellt genügend Liegestüble zur Verfügung.

Beautiful property, outstanding location for quiet get-away (recommend staying in warmer weather!)
For anyone wanting to stay in a beautiful location with outstanding views in every direction, you couldn’t ask for more. The outdoor seating is thoughtfully arranged to include a large table placed under a pergola with views over the vineyards and olive groves below. We were expecting the rental to be for the house, which has four bedrooms, but the price we were given is for double occupancy, so there was a small additional charge for single occupancy as we each wanted our own room. Our visit was planned to enjoy the warm May sunshine – and we had packed accordingly. Unfortunately, we encountered the coldest May (we were told) since1958. The house is not set up for comfort in cold weather. The indoor temperature did not get above 15 degrees C (59 degrees F) – and was for a number of days even colder. There is a pellet heater in the hall, which takes some of the chill out of the air in the early morning or evening, but the heat does not reach the bedrooms (as noted on the confirmation email you pay for the pellets you use). We used the fireplace in the kitchen a couple of times, but on a windy evening smoke was driven by the wind into the kitchen, so we had to open doors and windows to clear the room (removing any possible heat added to the room by the fire). We bought hot water bottles from the local Coop to warm up the beds on cold nights. Cristina and Andrea were very responsive to our communication and after having trouble locating the property (a problem with GPS), we met Cristina at the train station. The the kitchen is well supplied with pots, pans, cutlery and dishes, however there are no basic supplies, so plan to bring your own salt, pepper, olive oil, etc. Also, no oven or gas/electric grill. A caution for anyone with mobility concerns – the stairs down to the bathroom have no railing and are uneven (as one might expect in an old farmhouse). We had a wonderful, relaxing stay and enjoyed exploring the many beautiful villages and towns nearby. Walks on the dirt roads leading from the property were an enjoyable pastime and the views in every direction spectacular! Local markets and shops provided outstanding vegetables, fruits, cheeses, olive oil, Chianti… we already miss the beautiful fresh flavours of Tuscany. Thank you Andrea and Cristine for your welcome and for sharing your family’s farmhouse.

Why they chose this property

The Azienda Agricola Santa Maria a Sciano (Certaldo) produces Chianti wine and oil and is located in between Florence and Siena. It is placed at the top of a hill, surrounded by vineyards and olive trees, from where it offers a marvelous panorama 360 degree wide on the characteristic Tuscan countryside. An ideal place for a relaxing holiday and also for cultural sightseeing, owing to its strategic geographical position. From here one can easily reach historic towns, charming villages and famous places for wine and food. The farm holidays activity (agriturismo) was started in 1993 with a unique apartment that ensures complete freedom and quietness to guests. Since then, it has been running continuously with the help of international travel agencies. Starting from 2013, it is offered directly through this website.
