About this property

Casa Amiata: Large Charming Cottage on beautiful estate in Tuscany: Casa Amiata

'Casa Amiata', named after the mountain it faces, is close to many family-friendly activities, the art and culture of the Renaissance Tuscan cities, fabulous inexpensive restaurants, and the coast is only 25 miles away with miles of beaches. Casa Amiata is on a very large family estate dominated by the 15th century 'Villa Padronale'. You will love the space and charm of the flat, its setting in the Tuscan countryside with stunning views, and its convenient location in the Maremma. On three sides it is surrounded by a large garden with wide sweeping views. The spacious and traditionally Tuscan apartment (in keeping with the rest of the estate) is ideal for couples, solo adventurers, and families (with children). It makes a great summer base especially and is about 90sq metres.

We have many years experience in renting out our family properties. On the estate we have rented out our 6 bedroom luxury villa through the high end London agency CV Villas for nearly 2 decades. We have decided to continue this trend and have recently continued to renovate our other properties. Another 2 cottages available for rentals on the estate are: a 2 bedroom cottage called Casa Cavalli (6715725), and a 2 bedroom cottage called Casa Chiesa (8369630).

We have a large staff on the estate who have experience in hospitality, and we can help organise some extra services/activities: station & airport pick-ups and drop-offs, simple private cooking lessons and help with recommending what to do and see, and etc.

Check In FROM 16.00-19.30, Check Out is BY 09.30 (am), unless agreed to prior. Please note there is a surcharge of €40 for late check-ins after 2100 as if out of work hours someone will have to be called in. Late check-ins can also be very inconvenient so to be avoided if possible.

There is also a swimming pool that belongs to the main villa - it is not officially included in the rental agreement nor rental price, but guests are invited to use it should they want to. (Guests must sign a responsability/liability waiver form before use, children MUST be supervised, and the pool closes at 7pm). THE SWIMMING POOL OPENS ON THE 1ST JUNE, THOUGH SUBJECT TO THE WEATHER CONDITIONS.

In the local village, Paganico, there are banks, bars, a chemist, restaurants, a small train station, shops and tennis courts.

DUE TO THE NARROW ROADS, CARAVANS AND CAMPERS ARE NOT PERMITTED ON THE PROPERTY EVEN IF YOU HAVE RENTED A PROPERTY

Perfetto
My family and I stayed at the apartments for 4 days. The accomodation was perfect for us and the host Luca and housekeeper Nicoletta made us feel very welcome. The grocery essentials provided was a nice touch and the apartment had everything we needed, including the comfortable beds. The swimming pool was a relaxing way to cool off at the end of a warm tuscan day. This property is stunningly beautiful and we would love to return someday.

Entspannter Urlaub in der Toskana
Tolles Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis. Wir wurden von unserer Ansprechpartnerin Nicoletta freundlich in Empfang genommen und wurden in allen Angelegenheiten zuvorkommend und kompetent unterstützt. Die Wohnung war sauber, der Pool einladend, alles perfekt zur Entspannung. Die Lage war für uns ideal, 40 Minuten in die Maremma, 50 Minuten nach Siena und nur ein paar Minuten ins Dorf Paganico, in dem alles notwendige zu erhalten ist.

About the host

Hosted by Luca

Host profile image
Luca Savelli is the owner of the large Tenuta di Monteverdi, a family estate bought in 1916 by his grandfather, who turned it from a backwater into a national model-estate for farming, hunting and farm-house building.

Based in London, Luca visits the estate on a monthly basis spending longer periods there in the summer, though otherwise works as an archaeologist, primarily in Ethiopia and Italy.

Why they chose this property

The property is newly refurbished (2017), comfortable and very much in keeping with both the Renaissance-era estate it is on, and also with the style and standards that people expect when staying in Tuscany: in addition, it has lovely views and is very quiet. The first floor, 95m2 apartment is traditional and simple and was renovated in 2006 and refurbished in 2017. The kitchen is very large and well equipped with a large wood stove; there is a sitting room with log fireplace, comfortable beds and bed linen, bathroom with bath/shower (with efficient hot water), efficient hot water supply, Wifi, TV/DVD, secure etc.

The surrounding estate, which is a large estate of historical interest with stunning views, large villa, woodlands, olive groves, vineyards, is also a working estate, producing a variety of produce including olive oil which we sell.
The location in the middle of the Maremma is exceptional, with access to many famous cities within easy drive: Siena, Montalcino, Pienza, Montelpulciano, Arezzo, Florence, San Gimignano, Volterra, Chianti, and even Rome, while the miles of beaches are within easy short drives. Added to this are numerous activities: walks, riding, national parks, skiing (in winter), natural sulphur baths, golf, polo, tennis and much more, not to mention the fantastic and inexpensive cuisine!

NB. Please note that the flat does not have central heating (yet), and as such is ideal as a summer rental flat . That said it has a wood stove and log fire, which can both heat the house up very efficiently, and our staff can set them both up for you. Please ask if you have any concerns about this.

What makes this property unique

The benefit of this property is so that it can be used as a very convenient base to explore Tuscany, its coast, culture and cuisine. We believe that the prices are good value in compared to the competition, and we also have many years experience in rentals on our family estate. Lastly, we have a large staff on the estate and so we can make your visit enjoyable as possible. Upon booking, we offer a booklet with advice and information.
