Set in a wonderful location amid olive groves and vineyards, this lovely traditional villa with its terracotta tiled floors and beamed ceilings, is perfect for families and groups of friends wishing to travel together. It has three bedrooms and three bathrooms comfortably accommodating six people.




The above ground pool is set in a sheltered location in the villas garden and is reached via steps leading down from the terrace to the paved area which runs along one side of the pool. Sitting by the pool you are surrounded by mature trees and large terracotta pots planted with brightly coloured flowers.





Outside the paved terrace is furnished with a selection of sun loungers, umbrellas, tables and chairs. There is a large brick built barbecue and pizza oven which is perfect for cooking those “al fresco” meals.





Sitting on the terrace you overlook the pool below and the surrounding olive grove and vineyards. On the ground floor which is accessed externally from the garden there is a laundry room with washing machine, iron and ironing board.




The villa is arranged on one level on the first floor of the building, making the most of the views across the countryside. The main entrance is via the terrace which wraps around two sides of the house. This opens directly into the lounge/kitchen/diner, which is bright and airy.



The lounge area is comfortably furnished with sofa, armchairs, TV and brick built open fireplace, the kitchen/dining area is separated from the lounge by a wide brick archway and has fitted units along one wall with built in oven, gas hobs, fridge with freezer section, microwave oven and dining table and chairs.






An arched doorway takes you from the living area into a hallway from which the three bedrooms and three bathrooms are accessed.






The first bedroom on the right is a lovely light room with twin metal antique style beds and a built in wardrobe. The twin bedroom can become double on request.





Opposite is a large bathroom with full size bath and hand held shower. Next door to the twin room is the second bedroom which has an antique style double bed and large wardrobe. There is a bathroom with shower adjacent to this room.





The master bedroom is on the opposite side of the corridor, again this is a lovely room with antique style double bed. There are doors leading out onto the terrace and an ensuite bathroom with shower.



The villa is completely fenced.

Set in a wonderful location amid olive groves and vineyards, yet close to the town of Radda.

Internet WI-FI - available in the villa for free. Please bring your own laptop.

What were the highlights of your stay?    looking out the window at the remarkable countryside. best restaurant, le vigne, just down the road. went there 2x. traffic getting to florence was insane. next time we would not take the autoroute and would depend on a lesser road. the sage and rosemary and lemon trees were so wonderful. likewise the pool. the manager came several times during the week to vacuum it and it was pristine. we only used it 2x, but enjoyed it.
What was your overall impression of the accommodation?    excellent. one thing, tho. it lacked a real good pasta server and pepper mill.
Did you have any unpleasant surprises during your stay with us? no
Do you have any other comments regarding the accommodation or service? no

What were the highlights of your holiday? 12 weeks of being in heaven, with the views and peacefulnes of the grounds. Situated for us amongst wonderful local villages and communities scenery so special even at the end of our break we were still in awe of the scenes/people/and places. I have left a piece of my heart in the Tuscan Hillside and Boschetto. Renza I(the owner and her family were wonderful). Travelling to Cities around Tuscany using local Transport was also a delight.
What was your overall impression of the accommodation?    beautiful, tranquil, private. very well maintained and equipped. Just as the picture gallery had shown Personnally disappointed about internet connection, but I do understand that as we were in Tuscany for a long period it was probably just that bit more important to us. A sign on the road to mark Il Boschetto may be appreciated by visitors - Again I am not sure this would be appreciated by the family asd it may make the premises more vulnerable. .
Did you have any unpleasant surprises during your stay with us? No!!!!
Do you have any other comments regarding the accommodation or service? Thankyou to all the staff at To-Tuscany. particular Lisa in UK and Sean in Tuscany. I would certainly use your service again and recommend to any of my friends and family Some of our visitors this year I think are going to be looking to rtent Boschetto in the future.

What were the highlights of your holiday? Had a fabulous time. Sienna was particularly memorable and also S. Gimignano.
what was your overall impression of the accommodation?    Very Clean and well presented and thought out. A little nearer the road than we had expected .
Did you have any unpleasant surprises? The proximity of the road and the industrial estate but having said that there was almost no noise from the industrial estate and altho there was some heavy traffic on the road it wasn't enough to spoil our holiday.
Do you have any other comments? We had such a great time and everyone we met was so friendly and helpful.

I went on holiday with my family and we range from 60 years to 2 years so finding a villa to suit all our needs was proving to be quite tricky. When I found your website I just felt a sense of relief

I can't be more pleased with the service To-Tuscany provided. Dick Calabro was especially helpful answering all of my pre-trip questions in a most helpful and timely fashion.

I like To Tuscany, partly because it has a tremendous range of villas, and partly because (unlike many companies) it has an excellent website that provides what you really want when choosing a villa.

Our accommodation, which cost less than £800 for the week, is in a converted stone farmhouse next to a 12th Century Franciscan chapel. There is a pergola shaded by vines round the back here we quickly settle into a rhythm of eating long pasta suppers while the shadows lengthen.
