Photos and Description of the Siena vacation apartment rental

Come and stay on our organic farm in the hills of Tuscany in our spacious comfortable apartment 'La Mezzaluna'. Relax in tranquil surroundings with wonderful unspoilt views. The apartment forms part of the main traditional stone farmhouse but has its own private entrance, large private terrace and garden area and own parking. The accommodation is on two floors with two double bedrooms, one with extra bed and two bathrooms, one upstairs and one down. The kitchen/diner opens directly onto the terrace from where one can watch the constantly changing light on the surrounding hills. The apartment has been sympathetically restored to retain its original features whilst providing excellent modern facilities including fly screens and full central heating provided by our high tech wood boiler and solar panels. The farm is set in its own 42 acres of olive grove, vineyard and woodland and is run along traditional lines of small-scale cultivation on ancient terraces.
