CHARMING COTTAGE WITH PATIO + FANTASTIC PANORAMIC POOL. 1 KM WALK TO THE VILLAGE

The Leccio Cottage is part of the Holiday Farmhouse Monti 1824, in Casole d'elsa.

Monti 1824 is a holiday farmhouse completly family run, and it is our own personal commitment to great care of the estate and the gardens to make this place a special one, not just for us but also for all our visitors. Me and my parents work together to keep Monti 1824 at its best and to give our guests a complete assistance during the stay.

The concept of a family enviroment is related also to the holiday accommodations: made to be family friendly. The garden is contained and well kept , just the type of place that invites to sit outside to read a book , play games or drink a nice glass of red wine ( Chianti of course ! ).

The panoramic pool is set in a short distance from the cottage , so it is close enough reach by foot , but not too close that the fun and laughter will spill over into the garden.
The area lends itself to a fun filled family holiday, especially when you are interested about the local culture, traditions and meeting the Tuscans. Casole d'elsa is just 1 km from the Holiday House ( there is a well mantained path , illuminated at night) and it is a lovely little town with an exceptionally packed social calendar. You will always find concerts , markets , activities and events that will bring you into the authentic atmosphere.

The LECCIO COTTAGE is composed of 1 double bedroom with air conditioning ,bedroom with 2 twin beds / 1 double bed with air conditioning, living room with kitchen corner, bathroom with shower, small terrace on the east side and covered patio with table and chairs. Wi fi on all outdoor areas.

The outdoor area is composed by green areas with tables to eat outdoors , a splendid swimming pool ( 6mX12m open from April to October included) from which you can enjoy a spectacular view over San Gimignano equipped with deckchairs and sunbeds to relax in.

The holiday farmhouse Monti 1824 offers 3 apartments and 3 cottages + a panoramic swimming pool.

The cottage is located just 1 km from the medieval village of Casole d'Elsa, reachable in 10 minutes by walking via a scenic route with lights. It recently won the orange flag of the European Union for the beauty of the landscape. Casole d'Elsa is a small medieval village located 420 m above sea level at the top of the hill. Well ventilated, it has a dry climate and pleasantly temperate. The heart of Casole is the "piazza Lucchetti", the small central square with its historic buildings dating from the Middle Ages, with narrow streets and small shops where you can buy typical products of the region or taste the delicious specialities in the restaurants on the small streets of the center... A characteristic of this small town is certainly the warmth and kindness of people who still live according to the old traditions and rhythms of life without pollution or stress.

Fantastic
Just returned from a one week stay and cannot praise it enough. Frederica and her family were so friendly and could not do enough to make us feel welcome. Really enjoyed the Cooking Lesson and would recommend it for a fun and interesting break fro those superb panoramic views of the rolling countryside. We also really enjoyed our visits to the small hilltop villages that are just a short drive away from the property. We will return!

A beautiful place to stay with outstanding views across the Tuscan landscape and excellent hosts
Podere Monti consists of three apartments in the main house and three separate villas which all share a wonderful swimming pool with a beautiful view north to San Gimignano. Our villa (Leccio) was very comfortable, clean and ideally located close to the swimming pool. The location is 900m from Casole D'Elsa, a typically beautiful and relaxed Tuscan fortified hill village with art shops, an ancient and fascinating church and a few restaurants, two of which are very good. Podere Monti is run very efficiently by the Ianniciello family. Federica is the point of contact with guests and is very helpful indeed, providing excellent information on sights to see, places to park in Florence, Sienna etc and a really useful guide to local restaurants, supermarkets etc. The family is very friendly and attentive to guests' needs without being intrusive in any way. We had a wonderful holiday and always looked forward to returning to Podere Monti to relax and unwind beside the pool. Thanks very much and see you again soon hopefully!

Cottage with Garden, at San Gimiagno. Well designed and thoughtfully presented.
We thoroughly enjoyed our peaceful stay,within the gentle sloping hills and valleys of S. Tuscany. Comfortable and spotlessly clean accommodation, with a great 'Welcome.' This is a good area, from which to visit many historically interesting places. We required fresh 'T' towels and these were swiftly supplied! Enjoyed this stay here & hope to return. Best wishes, to the Owners and Team.

Traumhafte Ferienwohnung
Die Wohnung war sehr sauber und typisch toskanisch eingerichtet! Es hat an keinerlei Ausstattung gefehlt! Die gesamte Anlage mit Pool ist liebevoll gepflegt, so dass man sich einfach nur wohl fühlen kann! Die Kommunikation mit der Vermieterin war sehr nett und reibungslos! Die Lage ist hervorragend um die Sehenswürdigkeiten der Toskana zu erkunden. Es ist einfach nur zu empfehlen!

Entspannte Zeit in der Toskans
Eine wunderschöne gepflegte Anlage mit einem Pool mit ausreichend Liegestühlen und Sonnenschirmen. Die Anlage liegt einen guten Kilometer vom bezaubernden Ort Casole d' elsa entfernt, ist fußläufig in ca. 20 Minuten zu erreichen, ein wirklich gutes Restaurant in gut 10 Minuten. Ein Brötchendienst gab es nicht , der nächste Bäcker ist im Ort. Es empfiehlt sich Pooltücher mitzunehmen, da nur Duschtücher gestellt wurden. Die Wohnung war gut ausgestattet, uns fehlte nur die Kaffeemaschine, es war ein Filter und eine Porzellankanne vorhanden, wir würden dann empfehlen noch eine Thermoskanne mitzunehmen, wenn man mehr ,als eine Tasse zum Frühstück trinken möchte. Eine Espressokanne gab es natürlich auch. Es empfiehlt sich auch eine Grundausstattung an Gewürzen mitzunehmen. Wir wurden in unserer Uraubszeit von einer heftigen Mückenplage überrascht, darauf sollte man vorbereitet sein. Mit langen Klamotten abends , langen Schlafanzügen ( die Schlafzimmer hatten Gott sei Dank Klimaanlage) und Autan war es dann okay. Wir würden jederzeit wieder im Podere Monti unseren Urlaub verbringen, wir haben uns bei Frederica und ihrer Familie sehr wohlgefühlt. Ausserdem ist die Lage hervorragend für den Besuch der Städte Highlights der Toskana.

Schöne Lage mit tollen Blick vom Pool
Sehr sauber, nette Vermieterin (Wenn man den Vater ignoriert der schon mal den Gästen aufgeregt Fehlverhalten unterstellt), Kopfkissen sind Säcke womit man jemanden erschlagen kann, Betten etwas durchgelegen, Wegbeschreibung wie bis 1880 es üblich war, gut ausgestattete Küche gepflegte Anlage

Heel goeie locatie die perfect gelegen is om Toscane te ontdekken. Huisje was perfect in orde. Het zwembad mag wel een opsmukbeurt krijgen. Zéér vriendelijke en behulpzame eigenaars.
