Photos and Description of the Radicofani vacation farmhouse rental

A beautifully restored hillside farmhouse with truly spectacular uninterrupted open views situated in 25 acres of peaceful olive groves, farmland and woodland, in the Park of the Val D'Orcia (now an UNESCO world heritage site). The house has spacious accommodation, finished to a high standard with hand made terra cotta paved floors and outside paving, colour washed walls, antique furniture and well equipped kitchen and bathrooms. All the bedrooms have ceiling fans. A beautifully situated large terrace shaded by two old oak trees provides a magical setting for meals outside at a hand made wrought iron table which seats 12 people. The 12 x 6 metre pool is situated in a formal hedged rose garden with plenty of paved space for sunbathing on teak loungers and sunbeds under large sunshades. The house and pool are beautifully looked after by our housekeeper who can provide excellent cooking on request, and the gardens are cared for by our gardener. Cleaning is included in the rent.

Further details for this vacation farmhouse rental in Radicofani, Italy

Guest Book: We had a terrific time at your home in Tuscany. We will remember how beautiful things were: the house, grounds, garden, pool. Also, & surprise to us, we really enjoyed the location. The views were wonderful, & the daily trips into nearby towns made the week especially memorable. We visited Orvieto, Montepulciano, Montalcino, Pienza. Saw sights & did food shopping. Your detailed info on the region was very helpful as we planned our days. Kim, our 'resident cook' enjoyed using your 'River Cafe' cookbooks. In fact, he just ordered the cookbooks from Amazon.com. Rachele [property's housekeeper] is magnificent. In short, and in closing, our only complaint is that we were only able to stay a week (2004). A place like this exists nowhere else on earth. The expansive vistas, charming hill towns and lovely 'home away from home' will remain forever etched in my memory. Rachele is a real find -helpful, cheerful & an excellent cook! What a vacation! (2003).

Other Activities: wine tasting, concerts, opera
