Beautiful property available for rent with a private swimming pool, located just a short distance from the town of Certaldo. The structure in subdivided into 3 apartments, (there is no internal access between apartments) which come rented to one single party as a single rental villa. The largest apartment holds a dining room large enough for 8 guests to dine together. The owners (who are very friendly but not intrusive) manage a family agricultural business from the same location and live a few meters away but do not share any of the outdoor areas with the guests – they do reserve access to a passage which runs below the largest apartment for use only when truly necessary. They will be available should guests require help or advice for what to visit and where to go to enjoy the best of Tuscany. The property available for rent and the property where the owners live are separated by a border of flowers which gives the guests the most privacy possible.

Wonderful place near Certaldo with a fantastic view of Tuscany Inclusive San Gimignano and Certaldo Alto.
We had all of the three appartments with several well equiped kitchens. Everything was clean and the outdoor seating areas were lovely.
The very friendly owners live across the yard and are very kind and helpful. You have your own gateway with a remote control.
The pool is very big and clean and is located a few steps below the house with a small garden gate, which is perfect if you travel with little children.
The Next supermarket is in Certaldo about 15 Minutes away and there is a lovely Restaurant in Sciano 2 min away with a really good price-perfomance ratio.
This was one of the best stays we ever had in Tuscany!
mooi gelegen vakantiehuis, zeer vriendelijk en correct ontvangst door de eigenaars, appartementen zeer proper en fris, basisinrichting, zwembad is top (iets meer schaduw rond het zwembad zou fijn zijn), zeer goed restaurant op wandelafstand

Fint hus med mycket vackert läge mitt i Toscana, väldigt tillmötesgående ägare.
Sängarna kunde vara mjukare och mer komfortabla.

Nice holiday with 2 families. In Certaldo there was a medieval festival, which was insanely full but stunningly beautiful; Mercantia.
Already worth it to come here.

Das Haus ist sauber und ordentlich. Es wäre schöner ohne die Bilder aber das weiss man ja vorher. Es ist wirklich sehr gut gelegen und das Beste sind die Besitzer selber: sehr nette und hilfsbereite Leute mit denen man sich gerne unterhält. Vielen Dank!

Bright house in the most beautiful area. Wonderful to visit Siena, Florence, San Gimignao and Certaldo. Certaldo is located so close to the property that you can comfortably drink an aperitif and after that drive only 5 minutes. Also the walking distance to Sciano we liked it. Good to recommend.

Wir hatten eine wunderbare Woche. Alles war sauber und freundlich und das Schwimmbad in dem schönen Garten unser meist besuchtester Ort. Wir haben gute Tipps von Barbara bekommen und haben somit Certaldo für uns entdeckt. Eine wahre Perle! Zum Essen und auch um durch den nahegelegenen Park runter in den neuen Teil des Ortes zu gelangen und mit der Sellbahn wieder hoch zu fahren. Klasse!
