About this property

Beautifully converted farmhouse alone on a tuscan hillside with stunning views

Podere Aiaccia sits alone high in the Tuscan hills overlooking a panoramic view, which can be enjoyed from every room in the farmhouse. Aiaccia is a large converted farmhouse equipped for modern needs whilst retaining many original features. The water comes directly from the top of the mountain and is purified by the house's sophisticated water purification system so can be drunk straight from the tap! Aiaccia is dialect for "underground stream".

Accommodation consists of a large entrance hall, downstairs washroom, good sized kitchen, large dining room and a large sitting room all with doors leading onto the terrace. The siting room contains a fully working fireplace. Upstairs a large landing leads through to two large double bedrooms and a twin room, one double with ensuite bathroom. A spacious family bathroom is situated on this floor.

Outside a terrace spans the length of the farmhouse with a lower terrace for a more intimate space. Steps lead down to the swimming pool which also enjoys panoramic views. The extensive grounds and woodland surrounding the property can be explored, you can enjoy building camps or just wandering in the solitude of the countryside.

The farmhouse can only be accessed by a 1 km private road.

Podere Aiaccia is rural escape for families and a quiet romantic getaway for your special someone. Pets are very welcome and with space to roam they can enjoy the countryside with freedom!

The nearest village is San Leo Bastia, a 10 minute drive away. In the other direction the medieval walled town of Cortona nestled atop a Tuscan hill is popular with tourists and locals alike. Sienna is an hour and a half drive from the house, Florence two hours and Rome two and a half hours drive. Your nearest airport is Perugia with direct flights from main airports around the world. From Perugia the farmhouse is a 45 minute drive.

Afgelegen karakteristiek huis
Dit huis ligt aan het eind van een circa 1 km lange rots/gravel weg. Om er te komen heb je echt een hogere en krachtige auto nodig. Dan nog is er risico om een band lek te rijden, zoals ook ons overkomen. Het huis is prima, ruim en voorzien van alle gemakken. Karakteristiek en met smaak verbouwd. Het zwembad is prima en echt niet te klein zoals sommigen suggereren. De bedden zijn geen echte 2 persoonsberden, daarvoor zijn ze echt te smal. Het buitenmeubilair is aan vervanging toe, maar er zijn wel ruim voldoende stoelen. Bijzonder is ook de gedenksteen van de overleden engelse eigenaar...... In de omschrijving wordt helaas niet vermeld dat je op deze plek GEEN MOBIEL BEREIK hebt. Gelukkig werk de wifi wel prima, zelfs voor streaming. Om te eten kun je heel goed terecht bij La Taverna (ook genaamd Bar Bucci) in San Leo Bastia op ongeveer 10 minuten vanaf het huis. Verder zijn er voldoende alternatieven in de buurt. Naar Cortona ben je wel 45 minuten onderweg, maar Trestina is een hele goede plek waar je ook boodschappen kunt doen en de auto kunt opladen. Al met al, een prima plek als je van afgelegen in de bergen houdt, maar wel een paar nadelen (mobiel bereik, weg er naartoe, bedden)

Extrem abgelegen
Da wir einen Familienurlaub geplant hatten ist dieser auch sehr schön gewesen. Die Lage des Hauses ist sehr weit entfernt von jeglicher Zivilisation. Wegen der hohen Temperaturen konnte man keine Stadtbesichtigungen machen. Was jedoch sehr störend war sind die Temperaturen in den Schlafzimmern. Durch die Bauart und der geringen Isolierung unter dem Dach war es nur schwer möglich vor 23 Uhr einzuschlafen. Es halfen da auch keine Ventilatoren, die es in jedem Schlafzimmer gab. Durch die abgelegene Lage gab es sehr viele Stechmücken besonders am Pool. Ich glaube nicht das wir hier nochmal Urlaub machen.

Ferme toscane isolée
Belle ferme bien rénové très isolée en pleine nature, accès par un chemin de gravier un peu compliqué, mieux vaut il avoit un véhicule surélevé. Belle propriété, petite déconvenue le dernier jour, l' eau courante a été coupée donc impossible de prendre une douche ou de se laver les mains, inadmissible et fort désagréable
