Bella Vista is situated on the western side of the historic village of Montefienali and enjoys glorious views from the sunny, private terrace. With two large bedrooms and bathrooms on two levels, this house offers versatile accommodation for families or groups of friends travelling together. It is furnished and decorated with many personal touches that enhance the traditional interior of wooden beamed ceilings and terracotta floors.

The house is reached down a gravel path that leads to the pergola-covered terrace. Here the Tuscan oak front door opens into the living, dining and kitchen area. A second door with French windows allows light and breezes to enter. The living space is furnished with a comfortable double divan, two matching armchairs and a coffee table. A TV Sat and CD player are provided.

The sleek modern kitchen at the far end of the room is fully fitted. Modern white units house 4 gas hobs, a microwave, under-counter fridge with freezer compartment, and a dishwasher. Please note there is no conventional oven. A wooden dining table and chairs make up the dining area.

Three stone steps lead from the kitchen up to a small hallway, off which is a bathroom and a bedroom. This large bedroom has a wrought iron framed double bed and a single bed that can also be set up as a sofa if not required as a bed. There is a built in wardrobe and bedside tables with reading lamps. The adjacent bathroom has a shower and is finished in travertine tiles.

The upstairs bedroom and bathroom are reached up stone steps. This spacious bedroom has a double bed with bedside tables and reading lamps; also a large wooden wardrobe and dressing table with mirror. Far reaching sunset views over the wooded valley can be enjoyed from the bedroom window. The bathroom is finished in travertine tiles and has a shower.

Outdoors the proximity to the natural landscape can be enjoyed. Bathed in sun for most of the day, the raised terrace seems suspended above the trees. Seated at the outdoor table and chairs under the shade of the pergola, or preparing an evening meal at the barbecue provided, this is the perfect place to relax and unwind whilst enjoying a glass of local wine as the sun sets behind the hillside at the end of the day.

Small and medium size pets are allowed and must be kept on a lead at all times when outside. There is a 50 Euro charge per week for their stay. Please bring your own bowls and blankets.

Resort: Montefienali

One of Italy's national monuments Montefienali emerged in the middle of the 13th Century as a remote staging post on an ancient Roman road into the Chianti. After a two-year restoration project Montefienali is once more the ideal place for rest and recuperation for both body and mind and an ideal get away from it all.

Montefienali high point is the perfect place for its twin swimming pools. There is a 15 mtrs x 7.5 mtrs pool and a small children’s swimming pool 1 mtr deep - pools are open from April to October. Sun beds and umbrellas furnish the surrounding garden and terraces to provide a great place for basking in the sun while taking in the stunning vista of the hamlet and hilltop villages beyond.

A selection of accommodation of individual cottages in an isolated location with terracotta floors, beamed ceilings and traditional-style furniture, creating an appealingly traditional ambience that offers a private terrace/garden to enjoy the Tuscan hills while sun bathing or dining outdoors.
Every Sunday during July and August there is music and dancing at Monteluco, which is 4km away from Montefienali.

Pool Info

Bathed in sunshine for most of the day, the swimming pool is in a secluded position at the top of the village. Surrounded by terraced lawns and screened by trees it enjoys wonderful, uninterrupted views of the surrounding hillsides. It is a pleasure to take the short uphill path through the trees in order to reach this tranquil spot. Picnic tables and benches under a covered terrace above the pools add to the enjoyment.

The main pool is 15 mtrs x 7.5 mtrs and 1.5 mtrs deep. The children’s pool is 5 x 5 mtrs and 0.60 mtrs deep. There are plenty of sun-loungers with head shades, making this a great place to soak up the sun and enjoy the magnificent natural surroundings of Montefienali.

geweldige vakantieplek voor een prachtig Toscane-ervaring midden in de Chiantistreek. Prachtige locatie, heerlijk rustig, vriendelijke en hulpvaardige ondersteuning ter plaatse. Heerlijk zwembad. Goede uitvalsbasis voor de schitterende omgeving.

L'endroit est splendide. Une carte postale! Vous êtes au cœur de la Toscane! Le soucis est la difficulté d'y arriver! Route très sinueuse et dangereuse les derniers km. Pas d'accueil à votre arrivée, il faut se débrouiller et rechercher la fameuse Bottega. L'accueil est ensuite très charmant, le bourg magnifique. La villa Bella Vista pourrait mieux porter son nom sil les arbres face à la terrasse étaient élagués... on devine la belle vue, dommage! Vous êtes ensuite invités à un verre de bienvenue où vous espérez avoir des conseils sur la région, un petit mot du proprio,...pas du tout! On vous sert le verre avec quelques bruschettas et ciao ciao! Et quand la bottega ferme (3 jours sur la semaine), vous êtes livrés à vous même, pas de service, plus de service, plus moyen de faire une petite course (l'épicerie la plus proche est à 20 minutes). On se sent un peu seul à Montefienali! Pas conseillé pour une famille avec enfants en bas âge!

Vous êtes près et loin de tout! Sienne à ne pas manquer 40 minutes et San Gimignano 1h, Arrezzo 1h, Castellina in chianti un peu - de 1h. Montepulciano 1h30. Les villages comme San Gusmé, Radda in chianti, Gaiole in chianti,... sont de jolis petits villages où il fait bon de s'arrêter un instant mais vous aurez vite fait le tour... Niveau gastronomie, le vin est bien évidemment excellent mais très cher par rapport au reste de l'Italie. Idem pour la nourriture, très bon mais très cher pour ce que l'on vous propose.

Schitterende locatie! Rust, ruimte, relaxen. Heerlijke week gehad! Jammer dat er geen horren voor de ramen waren in de slaapkamers, kleine investering die andere eigenaren wel hebben gedaan. Heerlijk zwembad met goede ligbedden. De aanwezigheid en activiteiten van het winkeltje waren erg wisselend en werden niet aangegeven. Afval moet boven aan de weg worden ingeleverd, smal weggetje van soms 25%, ruim een kilometer, dus lopend is dat geen optie. Terrasmeubilair mag wat uitgebreider omdat je daar de meeste tijd bent, bv 2 relaxstoelen om van het uitzicht te genieten en niet alleen 5 stalen stoeltjes.

We zijn voornamelijk op de borgo gebleven (aankomstdag hebben we heerlijk verse ingredienten gekocht in het winkeltje). Naar de markt in Montevarchi geweest op donderdag. Aanrader!

Thank you for your review. The owner will look into the possibility of adding mosquito nets. Unfortunately, there is not enough outside space to add further garden furniture.

Ruime woning. Goed uitgerust. Heerlijk rustig doordat we geen directe buren hadden. Mooi groot terras met barbeque. Groot zwembad met fijne ligbedden. Goed bereikbaar en voldoende parkeergelegenheid.
Uitzicht vanaf terras was door hoge begroeiing minimaal. Strookt niet met de naam van het appartement en met de foto's op de site. Winkeltje was vrijwel nooit open en stikduur (10 euro voor een pot jam). Geen enkel telefoonbereik.

Je zit behoorlijk ver weg van restaurants en dergelijke maar het is een prima begaanbare weg met prachtige uitzichten. Radda in Chianti en Valpaio hebben een aantal fantastische restaurants die zeker de moeite van het bezoeken waard zijn.

Matrassen waren slecht/niet fijn. Erg hard , her en der doorgezakt.
Door de hoge struiken heb je minder uitzicht vanaf het balkon.
Erg afgelegen.

The owner was sorry to hear the bushes had overgrown and restricted the wonderful view. They will ensure more regular pruning takes place.
