COZY HILLTOP APARTMENT WITH PRIVATE GARDEN BETWEEN SIENA AND VOLTERRA

Colloritto is an old farmhouse in a hill top position in the wonderful countryside west of Siena. It lies 12 Km far from Casole d’Elsa and 9 from Radicondoli, both typical medieval villages still retaining their charm and original character. Colloritto is a perfect jump off point to explore the enchanting Tuscany, including the Maremma seashore. City of art such as Siena, Florence, San Gimignano, Volterra, Monteriggioni, Massa Marittima are easily accessible on good roads. Colloritto was built over an Etruscan site. The place was inhabited since then. The nature lovers will enjoy walks on the nearby paths (there are no barriers or fences anywhere) and also the river reserves and the wildlife sanctuaries of the area.. Culinary specialities from land and sea await your discovery. The famous wine region “Chianti” is only 25 km away. Each of the two apartments has its own patio and garden, from which our guests can enjoy the panoramic views and peace.
A small pool is available.
Beside this, there are several rivers in the area (Merse, Pavone, farma and Cecina) with clean waters and good streams. The free and open thermal baths are in Petriolo, 30 km from Colloritto, where hot water flows in the river Farma, offering a hot-cold swimming option. Thermal baths with entrance fee also in Rapolano terme. A very nice public pool is in the town of Colle di Val d'Elsa.

A most pleasant stay
Cozy hilltop private apartment in the hills 1/2 Hr from Siena. Best suited for an individual or a couple who prefers the solitude of the countryside. Suitable for preparing your own meals You will need your own car to get around. Interior is basic and small but adequate. The shower could use an upgrade and adding a microwave oven would be a nice feature. Gabriele and Patrizza are wonderful hosts. Gabriele’s suggestions for such aspects as local restaurants and best parking in Siena, etc go a long way in making your stay very comfortable. Location was perfect for touring Tuscany in all directions.

Such a relaxing break!
Gabriele and Patrizia are welcoming, relaxed hosts who have a super little apartment just right as a self catering base for a week in the Val d' Elsa countryside. Their driving directions were easy to follow, and the apartment was well equipped. We loved the little garden which was delightfully warm in the late October afternoons even though the property is on a hill. We highly recommend this apartment and would certainly book again if returning to the area.

Pleasant, secluded location
Good little holiday home. Everything you need in a touring holiday, it was quite adequate for myself and my husband, and the views over the Tuscan countryside were just amazing. Very well situated for Siena and San Gimignano etc. and a fast train into Florence. Could have done with slightly more lighting in evening, but very comfortable.

Truly a quiet, out of the way gem
The place is right in the middle of wine country. Outside your front door is rollong hills and green fields. Day trips to Assisi, Chianti and Siena are a must. All the crowds and after you have toured you return to a quiet mountian top. Good restaurants close. Grocery store close. The place is clean, roomy. Bring your essentials, coffee, breakfast goodies and so on. Again, your views ot the window are spectacular.

A tranquil haven in beautiful Tuscany
Wonderful location, (excellent directions from Gabriele so easily found), peaceful with lovely views, very welcoming but not intrusive hosts (booking was also quick and easy), very well equipped and comfortable accommodation, lovely private garden to sit and relax in, plenty of useful information and reading material, very good wifi connection, close enough to main roads to link with all the wonderful places of interest in the area, a lovely atmosphere here. We had a fabulous holiday here and the weather was just perfect too. Our favourite places visited are Siena, San Gimignano, Pienza, Volterra, and the Val d'Orcia and Crete areas with the breathtaking landscapes and beautiful cypress trees. Thank you very much Patrizia and Gabriele, we will hopefully see you again soon. Ciao.

WUNDERBAR!
Wir hatten einen wunderschönen Urlaub, und waren bei der Ankunft komplett geflasht von der wunderschönen Lage und der tollen Wohnung mit Garten. Ein Juwel auf FeWo! Die beiden Hosts Gabriele und Patricia waren supernett und man konnte immer auf sie zu kommen wenn man was gebraucht hat oder auch den ein oder anderen regionalen Tipp haben wollte. Auch haben sie einen liebevoll zusammengestellten Ordner in der Wohnung bereit liegen mit allem wichtigen rund um Einkaufen Essen, Sport und und und in der Region. Wir wollten garnicht mehr weg! Danke für dieses wunderbare Urlaubserlebnis!

Prachtig, een juweeltje op een heuvel in Toscane!
Prachtige plek, mooi huisje met gigantische privé tuin en heerlijk zwembad. Wij waren er een week, maar je kan hier prima 2 weken doorbrengen. Patrizia en Gabriele zijn super vriendelijke mensen! Er staat een heerlijke fles wijn klaar bij binnenkomst en het huisje is schoon. De airco is ook erg fijn. .

Toller Urlaub in der Toskana
Wir hatten die Ferienwohnung für zwei Wochen gebucht. Es ist ein guter Platz, um die Toskana zu erkunden. Gabriele und Patrizia sind fantastische Gastgeber und waren stets bemüht uns eine gute Zeit zu schenken. Für unseren Sohn gab es einen sehr sauberen Pool. Total empfehlenswert!

Petit endroit mignon et sympatique
Nous avons passé 5 jours agréable dans cette ferme restaurée . Gabriele et sa femme sont des hôtes sympathiques et merci de nous avoir accueillis avec une bonne bouteille de vin de la région. Nous regrettons toutefois le bruit de la route qui passe juste en dessous de la location et qui peut être gênant si on recherche vraiment un havre de paix.
