Apartment in Beautifully Restored Medieval Tuscan Village, 7klm from Volterra
The beautiful restoration of this small complex of four buildings, containing 24 high quality private apartments and a swimming pool of uniform depth, 14x7m, took place in 2008. The architecture and design of Podere le Volpaie has followed the traditional local style. It contains beamed and tiled ceilings, terracotta tiled floors, loggia style balconies, and a stone exterior. The original farm shape, with four buildings around a well and courtyard, has been preserved. Apartment B6 has one king-size and one twin bedroom, two bathrooms, and is located on the top two floors of a 4 storey building, reached by a private stone staircase. With a 360 degree panorama of rolling Tuscan hills, it nestles tranquilly, 7klm beneath the beautiful and historic town of Volterra, famed for its alabaster work and 4km below the charming Etruscan village of Montecatini Val de Cecina, with easy access to Pisa, Sienna, Florence, San Gimignano and the sea. The communal pool is available from mid May until the end of September.
The apartment is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a balcony. There's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. The bathroom offers hair dryers and bidets. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Really lovely week
Stunning location, great for exploring Volterra and the region. We ate out well each night, supermarkets nearby if needed.
The property is beautiful and full of Tuscan charm. The pool provided a welcome break from the heat!
Would definitely recommend- thank you for letting us stay!

Authentic Tuscany experience
Stunning location, simple but very beautiful medieval buildings, charming property, a wonderful pool with an amazing view. Even though there are many apartment units on the property it never got crowded.

Ruhig gelegene Ferienwohnung
Die Ferienwohnung ist wunderschön gelegen. Ist von außen wunderschön und hat einen tollen Pool, den die Kinder mehrmals täglich genossen haben.
Die Wohnung selbst ist schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Die Fliegengitter hatten überall große Lücken und die Einrichtung ist nicht die
Modernste. Aber wir haben unseren Aufenthalt trotzdem sehr genossen. Die Kommunikationswege mit den Besitzern lief pro problemlos, genau wie der check in.

Podere le Volpaie
Lage wunderschön. Appartement mittelmäßig. Der alte Kühlschrank brauchte Tage um runter zu kühlen. Die Klimaanlage auf dem Balkon ist ein Problem. Wenn man sie abends einschaltet ist der Balkon durch die heiße Abluft so gut wie nicht zu nützen. Die Sauberkeit ließ auch zu wünschen übrig.( z. B. unter der Couch). TV kann nicht auf Deutsch umgestellt werden.

Schmutziges Appartment in traumhafter Anlage
Die Gegend ist traumhaft, die Anlage einladend und der Inbegriff von "Toskana". Leider ist die Wohnung sehr schmutzig gewesen und mit Hinterlassenschaften der Vorgänger versehen (z.B. Kleidung, zerbrochene/defekte Utensilien, Haare in der Dusche etc.). Der Zustand der Küche ist grenzwertig.

Fantastic place
A really nice appartment, which had the correct size for a family of 4.
The appartment was clean, and well equipped, we didn't miss anything
The pool was also really nice, and a good size, even we were 5 or 6 famlies sharing it
The location is really good, it is close to Volterra and even in the local village you can find bakery, butcher and a small supermarket
The only thing, is that the weloem from the local agency only speak Italian, and doesn't understand a single english word.

Wunderschöne Anlage in einer wundervollen Umgebung
Super waren die Lage, der Ausblick vom Balkon und der Pool. Gut waren die Schlafzimmer und die Ventilatoren, die Waschmaschine und die Videosammlung. Okay waren die Badezimmer. Schlecht war der Zustand des Inventars der Küche , alles klebte und wies spuren vom Vorgänger auf. Die Spülmaschine war ein Graus (gefühlt lebte diese). Wenn man jeden Abend essen geht ist dies alles sehr gut zu verschmerzen. Vielleicht hat die Putzfrau vergessen diese zu reinigen oder die Vormieter. Insgesamt habe ich 1 Stunde geschrubbt, danach war es okay. Was von uns vermisst wurde war der zweite Wohnungsschlüssel und WLAN. Zudem wiesen die vorhandenen Mückennetze Löscher auf, zur Freude der Mücken. Schade auch das die versprochene Luftmatratze nicht gebracht wurde, obwohl die alte defekt war. Wir haben trotzdem einen wundervollen Urlaub verbracht.
