Situated within a short walk of a good pizzeria and basic shop, a couple of kms from other restaurants and just 5km from a beautiful village with lots of other facilities.

This spacious and airy villa boasts 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, a good size well equipped kitchen, dining room, living rooms and plenty of space for dining and relaxing inside and al fresco.
There is a good size private pool for relaxing days at home looking out at the stunning tuscan countryside of rolling hills, olive groves and classic cypress trees.

This large property sleeps up to 10 guests and is arranged over 3 floors:

On the ground floor, the main entrance leads directly into very large spacious reception room, which has a good size dining table for at least 10 to dine inside, arm chairs and a fireplace. A unique space with a staircase leading up to mezzanine library balcony overlooking the room.

From this room and down a small flight of steps you reach a second reception room which is a comfy living area with huge traditional fireplace, comfy sofa, a further table and 4 chairs. This vast living area interconnects via an arch to a breakfast room which has 3 or 4 steps down into the kitchen.

The kitchen is spacious modern kitchen complete with US style fridge/freezer, oven, hob, dishwasher and plenty of workspace for preparing your tuscan delights. The kitchen has double doors leading through to dining terrace.


The feel of this ground floor area is really traditional tuscany meets modern, with traditional windows and flooring, original fireplace, tuscan arches, with modern touches such as contemporary second fireplace area, mezzanine floor, and wooden cladding mixing with beams.

Into the sleeping zone to two well furnished double bedrooms, one of which has an ante room of wardrobes. Also on this floor is a large bathroom with tub, as well as a separate shower room. Each room has wonderful beamed ceilings adding to the Tuscan feel .

Up to the second floor one finds a further living area, with room to relax away from the rest of the group, along with a further 2 double bedrooms with beamed ceilings. There is space for an additional single in each room, but many guests prefer to situate the 2 singles in with the largest double so that 4 children can all sleep together, or else place the 2 singles in the additional living area on this 'loft style' floor.

Peaceful Getaway
We are traveling with 6 persons through Italy. This villa was a wonderful change of pace to the crowded streets of the cities. Beauty, clean, and well stocked. A little off the grid but worth the train rides and car rental.

Tuscany
From the moment we arrived we were greeted with warm, rustic charm that Tuscany is famous for. The villa is surrounded by breathtaking landscapes of olive groves, vineyards and picturesque rolling hills. The host met us when we arrived and was attentive to our needs during our stay. The villa was spacious and clean and the outdoor space was a true haven. You will need access to a car or limo/tour guide if you want to explore Siena or Florence which we highly recommend.

Amazing stay in Fenice
We could not have asked for a more amazing experience. We loved everything about this property… amazing views, great hosts, picturesque city and delicious food and wine. Linda was always available to answer any questions and we would highly recommend the delicious meals they offer on request. The accommodations were like stepping back in time while still enjoying modern amenities (including an ice machine in the fridge). Thank you Linda for such a great experience!

Tuscan hills R&R
La Fenice was a perfect example of a traditional tuscan hideaway with nothing but hills and trees to gaze upon. The villa was spacious enough for us all - two families or four with kids under 12 and the grandparents! The bedrooms, bathrooms and kitchen were all perfectly clean and comfortable (with aircon in every bedroom which was a welcome relief from the august heat) and the pool area was just beautiful with plenty of seating and grassy areas for the children to play. There are a lot of steps so wouldn't be suitable for someone who struggles with their mobility. No shops nearby on foot but plenty of choices of restaurants, cafes, gelaterias and supermarkets 10mins drive in nearby Castiglion Fiorentino. I'd recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing and peaceful holiday but with nearby tuscan towns and villages in easy reach, it's a great base for exploring the wider area as well.

Tuscany Villa
We had a great time. Linda and Jamie were amazing. The house was very comfortable. The different levels were different for us, but worked out. Especially with multi families for privacy. The grounds were beautiful. There were a lot of ants, bees, bugs in general around the pool so it was hard at times to use. Especially could not enjoy meals outside, but overall the grounds were just beautiful. Linda went out of her way to accommodate extra family in their private unit. Great way to end our month vacation around Italy.

A piece of heaven with a couple of angels to watch over us.
Absolutely superb hosts. Nothing was too much trouble. We had two delicious meals cooked by Linda and we left with her homemade limoncello and olive oil. Peaceful, beautiful grounds with wonderful walks straight from the house. Tennis club 5 min drive away, and a local train station that whisked us off to Florence for the day. Don't miss Snoopy's gelato in the local town. This holiday was a 5* experience.

Amazing Tuscany Getaway
My husband and I, our daughter and 3 granddaughters and boyfriend absolutely loved the Fenice Tuscan Villa. We were warmly greeted by the owners. They gave attention to every detail of our stay. The villa was spacious and comfortable for our large family. We enjoyed the chef-prepared breakfast each morning outside beside the pool. The view of the Tuscan Countryside was breathtaking. A highlight of our stay was a local wine tasting. We highly recommend this property!

Our dream home in Tuscany
My family of 5 just finished our 6 day stay at the Fenice Villa. The home is beautiful and the view is breathtaking. The pool overlooks the Tuscan hillside and is perfect for relaxing and cooling off. It is just a 10 minute car ride to a grocery store and to the train station where you can easily travel to different Tuscan cities. The best gelato we had in Italy was at Snoopy's right in Castiglion Fiorentino. The owners, Linda and Jaime, could not have been more gracious and accommodating. They were immediately available to help us with whatever we needed. We can't say enough good things about our trip. We were sad to leave our Tuscan villa and hope to return again someday.

This place was truly relaxing. It was a beautiful and quiet place, the house was amazing and the kitchen was great. The grounds were top notch. It was an 8 min drive to town, and there were multiple walled cities to see within 20-90 mins away. Easy to access. The hosts were wonderful. We went with another couple and our two kids. There was room for everyone to spread out, inside and out. Afternoons by the pool was a big hit.

Lovely, old house with character
The house is over 500 years old and well kept. It has hardwood floors, floors made of stone, and tiled floors. Ceilings with big beams, old fireplaces, and walls that have heard many a secret. It is easy to imagine all the history it has witnessed. The view is breathtaking, with rolling hills of green, olive groves, grapefields and more. During our stay of 2 weeks we spent some time doing nothing, except relaxing by the pool, and playing with the children in the pool. However, the location is good as a base for exploring and visiting old medieval villages, such as Cortona, Arezzo, Siena, and of course Castiglion Fiorentino. We also had 2 day trips to Florence by train. We booked a wine tasting and lunch at the winery «Buccelletti» down the road, a five minute walk from the house. Beautiful place and a lovely experience. Linda’s family has been there for generations, and she and her husband takes great pride in making your stay as comfortable as possible. There is air-conditioning in 3 of the spacious bedrooms. My daughter and I stayed in the bedroom with no air-conditioning, and it was fine due to the thick walls of the house. It was nice and cool inside, even though it was up to 38 degrees C outside. If you are looking for a place to stay with your family in Tuscany, I do not hesitate to recommend this place. If you book La Fenice you can have a nice, adventurous and relaxing holiday - all at the same time!
