Outside there is a lovely private garden with Mediterranean shrubs, olive and Cyprus trees, here you have the best of both worlds as you have a choice of sitting on the terrace at the end of the garden in full sun or to relax under the covered terrace.

There is a table and chairs for outside dining, also a sun umbrella, and should you need to cool off the hamlets' swimming pool is only a short walk away, and wherever you sit there are fantastic views of the Tuscan countryside and the surrounding vineyard.

The entrance is reached via the garden and across the covered terrace; the door opens directly into a cosy lounge/diner which has a large feature fireplace with comfortable armchairs arranged in front of it.

The dining area is to the right of the room and has a traditional wooden table and matching chairs. The property has terracotta tiled floors and beamed and tiled ceilings throughout.

Steps lead down to a new attractive fitted kitchen, with a modern built in oven and microwave, a fridge freezer, dishwasher and separate gas hobs. There is also an American style coffee maker, kettle and toaster.

Next to the kitchen is the main lounge with comfortable sofas and armchairs; there is a flat screen TV and DVD player. To the right, a couple of steps lead down into a corridor, on the right is the bathroom which has a larger than usual shower, also a washing machine and tumble dryer are housed in here to one side.

Directly opposite the bathroom is a lovely bright room with the traditional high beamed ceiling and twin beds with ironwork bed heads and a wardrobe. Please note that it is not possible to push these two single beds together.

At the end of the corridor up six steps is the master bedroom which has a double bed with painted bedstead a large wooden wardrobe and ensuite bathroom, again with a larger than average shower.
