Tuscany, Italy
- 2 persons
- 1 bedroom
- WiFi

Detached cottage, within a property surrounded by greenery, equipped with kitchen, terrace, double bedroom, large bathroom with shower, bidet and washing machine. The pool is for the exclusive use of the cottage guests. There are no other apartments except the main house, occupied by the owners, jovial and friendly people, ready to assist you with any request, but at the same time discreet and reserved. Parking is outdoors but safe, as the property is accessed by an electronically opening gate. The house is 1.5 km from the center of Colle Val d'Elsa, which can also be reached on foot in 15 minutes, and from the first bus stop to Siena (21 km away) and to Florence (35 km away). The location is truly fortunate, in the heart of the most beautiful and characteristic Tuscany: San Gimignano is 18 km away, Monteriggioni 10, Chianti is within 40 km. The local hospital is 4.5 km away.
Nature and surroundings
The Vallecapocchi farmhouse is completely surrounded by greenery, although it is very close to the city center. The cottage is surrounded by cypresses, pines, fig trees, and acacias, on which various types of birds sing and where it is not uncommon to see a few squirrels hopping. The terrace, equipped for meals and relaxation, offers a view of trees and cultivated fields. Nature all around grows luxuriantly among plants characteristic of the area and not, such as medlar trees from Japan, prickly pears and other types of succulents. Nature takes center stage, with the presence of deer, porcupines, hares, pheasants, and foxes that, with a little luck, can be encountered, especially at night. The absence of artificial lighting allows a very sharp observation of the starry sky on clear nights. The pool is also completely surrounded by greenery.

Everything is there, though it’s improvised and somewhat thrown together, which actually gives it its own unique atmosphere. Easy to find after receiving an email with clear directions from Simona. Very friendly welcome and very helpful with any questions or requests.
Alles is aanwezig, doch geïmproviseerd en wat bij elkaar geraapt, wat ook weer zijn een eigen sfeer geeft. Goede te vinden na e-mail met duidelijk beschrijving van Simona. Zeer vriendelijk ontvangst en zeer hulpvaardig bij vragen of verzoeken.
Thanks to Simona, the queen of improvisation, everything is taken care of. It’s a quiet spot, even though we’re close to the owner’s house—which isn’t a problem. Great beds and a wonderful shower. The pool was there just for us and was a welcome treat during the hot days we had there. The town has plenty to do and is within walking distance.
Compleet door improvisatie koningin Simona, alles is aanwezig. Rustig plek, al zitten we dicht op het huis van eigenaresse, wat niet hinderlijk is. Prima bedden, en heerlijke douche. Zwembad was er echt voor ons en welkom tijdens de warme dagen die wij daar hadden. Stadje is van alles te doen en op loopafstand.

A great vacation—I feel wonderfully rested.
Top vakantie, heerlijk uitgerust.
Very quiet location, hardly any noise, and a friendly family living in the house next door who you won’t be bothered by at all.
The cottage itself is basic but also very well-equipped—it has everything you need. And it’s nice and clean and hygienic. We mostly spent our time outside on the balcony next to the house, where you have a beautiful view of the mountains.
The pool is great and just a short walk up the hill. Completely private.
The road leading to the house is a bit challenging and unpaved in some places. But it was manageable with our rental car (Skoda Fabia).Heel rustig gelegen, weinig geluiden, aardige familie die in het huis ernaast woont en waar je absoluut geen last van hebt.
Huisje zelf is basic maar ook heel compleet, alles wat je nodig hebt zit erin. En daarnaast ook mooi schoon en hygiënisch. Wij hebben vooral buiten gezeten op het balkon naast het huis, waar je mooi uitzicht hebt over de bergen.
Zwembad is top en een klein stukje de berg oplopen. Volledig privé.
De weg naar het huis toe is wel uitdagend en op sommige plekken onverhard. Maar goed te doen met onze huurauto (Skoda Fabia).This text is automatically translated. -

Klein, gezellig huisje met basiscomfort. Heel tof om even tot rust te komen.
A very friendly woman. A nice little cottage surrounded by nature, with a large pool available for guests to use.
Heel vriendelijke vrouw. Tof huisje midden in de natuur met een groot zwembad dat ter beschikking staat.
