Beautiful Tuscan farmhouse in Siena

This farmhouse was beautifully decorated and very well-appointed with all the amenities we needed for our stay in Siena. The views were spectacular and the property lovely for sitting outside sipping wine and enjoying our time with family. It was quiet and very clean. I can't say enough how much we enjoyed our stay here. I would definitely love to stay here again.

Fantastic farmhouse

We absolutely loved staying at Belvedere! It’s beautiful with stunning views from every window! Our welcome dinner of a pizza party with Kati was so much fun and delicious! The location is perfect- just outside of Siena. Just wish we could have stayed longer!

Awesome stay in Tuscany

If you are going to Siena and Tuscany, this property is an amazing place to stay. Beautiful house surrounded by beautiful views of the countryside. It has everything you need for your stay. The owners were very responsive and helpful. And don’t forget to have Kati prepare a meal for you as an option they provide. It was wonderful. We had an amazing time and are taking away even more amazing memories of this property and our time in Tuscany.

Under the Tuscan Sun

This is a beautiful place with amazing views. Lots of room for ourselves and our adult children. It was a nice retreat Just wish we could have stayed longer to really relax. We opted for the pizza part with Kati. Kati was lovely and her pizza was amazing. Thank you!

Rip Off Artist

The additional services from the "chef" were terrible! We had four people, she charged us for six for breakfast per the agreement... but after breakfast was over she took everything away except the meat platter. Even partially eaten pastries, that's right half eaten pastries were taken. The "chef" gave us the understanding that she would be leaving everything, so we decided to eat small portions to allow us to have extras for the next couple of days. It was a surprise to use when she cleared it all away. We cancelled the cooking class with the chef for the next night (20hrs) in advance. There is no cancellation policy in any of the correspondence! The host is trying to charge me for the full cost of the dinner. I would never stay here again and would never recommend anyone staying here. The host and the "chef" are rip off artist!

Tuscan Treasure

An amazing Tuscan farmhouse overlooking stunning views. Perfect for our family of five exploring the towns and sights of Tuscany. We even did two day trips to Florence and the drive is only an hour. This is a great location close to a very cool hill town of Siena. Everything about the place is special. Was a great place to introduce our kids to Tuscany. Would stay again for sure!

Beautiful Country Villa

We stayed 3 nights along with another couple and had a wonderful time. The renovated farmhouse in such a peaceful setting was perfect - close to Siena and other sights, but removed enough for a wonderful Tuscan country experience. The owners, Carola and Adam, were great to work with and very helpful. Don't miss out on a absolutely delicious Welcome - or Farewell - dinner served at the villa. We would love to return again in the future!

Fantastic

This place was just perfect for me and 3 of my girlfriends. Beautiful home with incredible views and outdoor space. Highlight was definitely our welcome pizza party (massive outdoor brick oven and patio space). It was nice to be near Sienna, but even nicer to be slightly removed and in the middle of the gorgeous vineyards. Thank you for everything!

Peaceful Tuscany

We loved the Belvedere. It was so beautiful, comfortable and homey. The location is rural, but only 3 or 4 km from Sienna. The property and neighborhood are filled with olive grapes, grape vines, cypress trees and open fields. The house was perfect for the six of us. We could make breakfast in the morning and sit together outside, in the dining area and the living room. The hosts were responsive and the neighbors friendly. The personal chef, Katy, is amazing. She made wonderful Tuscan 4 course dinners for our first and last nights. I highly recommend the Belvedere, we hope to go again soon.

Treasure in Tuscany

We were looking for a traditional Tuscany residence and we found that and more at Belvedere. Our only regret was that we couldn’t stay longer. The fact that we were able to get to know Katy while she made us an amazing homemade welcome dinner and Pia while she shared her knowledge and positive energy as our Siena tour guide made Belvedere the highlight of our Italy experience. Thank you Carola and Adam for sharing your treasure with us. We appreciated your communication which made our first time in Italy magnificent.

A beautiful place in a beautiful setting

Location, location, location. Simply put, a beautiful place in a beautiful setting. This 500 year old villa is handsomely appointed, providing stunning vistas and ideally located. Combine all of this with caring owners and you have found your vacation getaway residence. Siena is just a 10 minute drive from this hilltop villa. The driveway to the residence is pleasantly secluded. You pass the Certano family homestead on the way in. Visiting the Villa Certano Agriturismo is a must, where they sell wine and olive oil produced onsite. Endless rows of grape vines surrounded by olive tree orchards provide an amazing view. The scenery is so magnificent, no photo or artist could do it justice. The home itself is immaculately maintained. The woodwork is deep, beautiful and old. The windows,engineering marvels, are not only beautiful, but critical in maintaining comfortable temperatures. The villa easily accommodates 8 guests. The main dining area is reminiscent of King Arthur. There is a small porch where you can sit and admire the scenery. The kitchen has modern appliances. We enjoyed the scenery and ambiance so much, that we prepared dinner at home each night of our 2 week stay. Outside there is a stone patio with an outdoor eating table and awesome views. There is also a large stone pizza oven. We made use of it and cooked several pizzas. The experience was memorable. Belvedere is perfectly situated for day trips to Montepulciano, San Gimignano and the amazingly scenic Montalcino, each about an hour drive by car. However, driving in Italy can be confusing and frustrating. We strongly recommend a GPS or data plan for your smart phone. You will not regret it. The last true asset of Belvedere is Gianna the caretaker. She is extremely helpful and a truly lovely lady. Purchase the welcome dinner. This is a must! My wife and I have tasted many different variations of lasagna. Gianna's was the absolute best. There are a few drawbacks. The WiFi can be iffy at times, however, Gianna was able to keep us connected most of the time. Belvedere does not have a pool so you will need to occupy yourself eating savory Italian food, drinking excellent local wines and admiring artwork by mankind's greatest masters. Also, there is no clothes dryer. However, there is a washer and plenty of Tuscan breezes to dry your laundry. All in all, a beautiful place in a beautiful setting. Kick back, relax and enjoy it!

Absolutely Breathtaking Views

We just spent 7 days in Tuscany with our friends, and it was spectacular. The Belvedere Farmhouse was the perfect spot for 4 of us, but with a third bedroom we could easily have had 6 people. The house is well stocked, the beds are comfortable, and the views are indescribable. The photos on VRBO don’t do this beauty justice. It’s much prettier in person. The communication was great. I highly recommend you hire Kati for cooking and a pasta making class!

Tuscany farmhouse

6 of us stayed at the farmhouse. We used it as a base to enjoy the many cities in Tuscany. We even had Kati cook us a wonderful 4 course meal on our last night. We also used a guide suggested by Carola. Pia was great. She gave us a 4 hr tour of Siena and an all day wine tour of 3 wineries. If we ever come back to Tuscany, we will rent teh farmhouse again. Thanks Carola and Adam for your hospitality. Sorry about setting off the alarm. Note to self, read all of the directions. LOL. Thanks, Steve, Cathy, Mark, Alana, Steve, and Val.

A Little Bit of Heaven in Tuscany

This charming villa near Siena was the perfect setting for our long-awaited return to Tuscany. Every morning we awoke to beautiful views of the countryside with small villages dotting the landscape, pheasants roaming the adjacent olive grove and the gorgeous blue sky. Although the kitchen may look small in the pictures, it was perfectly adequate for prepping meals and includes a convenient dishwasher. Owners Carola & Adam were quickly responsive to inquiries. And the bonus of tour guide, Pia, living downstairs was a welcome addition. Her tour with us of Siena was spectacular & truly "went beneath the surface"! We had personal chef, Kati, cook 3 wonderful meals during our 10 day stay - you don't want to miss this! She was so much fun & her meals were better than we had in any restaurant. We can't wait to come back again!

A dream of a week at Belvedere farmhouse

I’ll get straight to the point: all the glowing reviews of this property are deserved. 1) The home is very comfortable, charming and well-equipped. 2) The location is spectacular. We couldn’t get enough of the views out the second story windows, the changing light throughout the day highlighting the beauty of the surroundings. 3) The adjunctive optional guide, Pia, and Italian chef, Kati, added so much to the experience. Pia expressed it best: Kati is a force of nature, yet sweet, calm and so, so skilled. If Kati ran a restaurant, it would certainly earn Michelin status. And Pia couldn’t do enough for us. We employed her as our guide through San Gimignano and are quite glad we did. She provides so much extemporaneous humor during her tour as well as a deep history of the town itself. I will be recommending this place to all our family and friends and hope to return to Belvedere one day again soon.

Heaven in Tuscany

This place was the highlight of our trip to Italy. It was everything we wanted. The view from every window is like a painting. The beds were comfortable, and the rooms were spacious to hang out in for some private time. We ate many of our meals on the wonderful terrace outside. Pia, a tourist guide, lives downstairs. We hired her for tours with excellent results. Kati, a chef, can be hired to cook dinner for you or teach a cooking class. That was delicious. The kitchen has the equipment you need. Each person in our group wants to return to this place. We highly recommend it.

Tuscany Immersion & Delight

We had a wonderful stay at the Belvedere Farmhouse at the end of September. It was a charming home exactly as pictured. The views around the property are absolutely spectacular. We were two couples so the 3 bedrooms, 3 bath home was more space than we needed but an extra bath comes in handy, beds were great and appreciated the laundry facilities. Luckily the weather was absolutely perfect. Nice cool nights!! No need for air conditioning. We did have the pleasure of having Miss Katy cook 3 meals for us. It was absolutely wonderful and the best Italian food we have ever had. Miss Katy is an absolute delight!! Highlight of our stay at Belvedere. Pia who also lives at the property and works as a tour guide, took us on a great tour of Siena and to an olive oil processing tour near San Gimignano. We also had a tour of the Villa and were able to see some of the winery activities on the property and purchase some of the wine. We wanted an immersion experience, we got it and enjoyed all the time we spent at Belvedere..

Peaceful and serene Tuscany setting

Our stay at Belvedere far surpassed our expectations. The property is situated in a private, tranquil location with stunning views, only minutes from Siena. The house itself is authentic, rustic, magnificence that made us feel as though we had stepped back in time. Each morning, I looked forward to opening the heavy-duty window shutters to let the sun roll into the house and then wander outside with a cup of coffee to sit on the terrace and enjoy the gentle breeze and views. It’s a magical place. The furnishings in the house are comfortable and understated, perfect for a family gathering. In keeping with the authenticity of its era, the house does not have ac, so the house did get a little warm at times after hot showers, drying hair, or cooking. We, generally, stayed quite comfortable though with open windows and the bedroom overhead fan. As noted in the house guestbook, it’s fairly easy to trip the electrical switch. Our power went out when using a hairdryer and dishwasher at the same time. It’s quick and easy to reset the power switch, but just know to use only one electrical appliance at a time. Do yourself a favor and book at least one night of Kati’s catered dinner on the outdoor terrace. The food is amazing, as is Kati. We only regret that we didn’t book her dinner every night! Also, our breakfast sweet breads prepared by Pia were such a treat! Thanks to C&A for being such incredible, helpful and responsive hosts. We hope to visit again!
