We had an excellent holiday at Monte Fontichiusi. The house was a lovely typical Tuscan property that supplied everything you need and more, and was very clean. It's outside area was very spacious with beautiful gardens. The pool was amazing and had panoramic views of the surrounding hills. The owners Pietro and Anna were wonderfull people and helpfull whenever needed. And we were very grateful for the fresh tomatoes and lettuce they left us every day. We really can recommend this house for comfort peace tranquility and beautifull views.

Het was een heel aangenaam verblijf en alles was voorzien. Heel mooi zwembad en zeer vriendelijke eigenaars. De eigenaars wonen naast het vakantiehuisje maar respecteren de privacy van de huurders. De groenten en eitjes 's morgens waren een leuke verrassing. De ligging vonden wij iets minder aangezien wij graag wel eens een uitstapje doen. Je moet toch enige tijd rijden voor een grootwarenhuis, restaurantjes, .... De onverharde weg mag ook niet onderschat worden. Het landschap rond het huis is wel prachtig en enorm rustig. We zouden dit verblijf dan ook aanraden voor mensen die echt tot rust willen komen en willen genieten van het prachtige landschap rond het huis.

Phantastische Haus und Grundstück, absolut ruhig. Toller Blick.
Eigentümer bemerkt man nicht,wenn man Fragen hat sind sie sehr hilfsbereit.
Hat alles gepaßt. Zufahrt bißchen anstrengend durch die Schotterstraße.

Our stay at Villa Montef Fontechiusi was just perfect! Pietro & Anna are the most caring, kind & honest people we have met during our travels. They gave us privacy but we're always available to help whenever we needed them. We were spoilt with fresh produce from their farm & fresh eggs daily!
The villa is situated up high overlooking the rolling hills of Toscana. We saw some wild pigs walking around which made our stay even more memorable!
I spent hours looking for the perfect villa in Chianti. I am so happy I chose this Villa it ticked every box & more! We are already saving to go back.there!
Thank you Pietro & Anna for such a memorable stay. We hope to meet again one day!

Wir haben im August sehr schöne und erholsame 2 Wochen in Monte Fontechiusi verbracht. Das Haus ist sehr schön gelegen mit tollem Blick über die Toskana. Der Pool war super. Die Vermieter sind sehr nett und zurückhaltend und wir haben immer frische Eier, sowie Salat und Gemüse aus Ihrem Garten bekommen. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und die Lage bietet viele Möglichkeiten zum Wandern und Mountainbike fahren.
Die wunderschöne Natur rundherum und die Ruhe ist ideal um auszuspannen.

Superb location, very remote. Lovely pool.
Sienna is well worth a trip. Very scenic drive through the mountains, then easy, although expensive, parking outside the city walls.
