A gem in Tuscany

A special place in Tuscany. Everything is great, from the host to accommodation to location. A wonderful stay close to many attractions in the area yet far away to allow you to be amazed by the beauty of Tuscany. Facilities are great.

Great location to run away from civilization

Great communication with the host - also if problems occur, the host (Jerome) is eager to solve them quickly!The farmhouse has been rennovated and is at a very good standard - kitchen has everything being needed, sleeping rooms are regular, bathrooms offer everything you need. Good WiFi Connection at the site.To be aware about: - if you are afraid of animals (stink bugs) you might be carefule which room to choose - we were in the largest arpartment (Belvedere) and had bugs (beside closed windows) every day in one of the bedrooms, living room and bath rooms - Heating was not working properly, but with the fire place we were able to keep everyone warm. We also got a generator from Jerome very quickly. Afterall, great location, specially my parents will come back!

Beautiful, peaceful, perfectly located

This property is well cared for and has everything you could need. The pool was great for my young children and the location was ideal for day trips into Florence and Siena or even dinners and strolls in smaller, more nearby towns. Jerome was a great host - helpful and communicative. I highly recommend this property for those who are looking to enjoy a Tuscan respite!

Fantastic place

We had a wonderful stay at Podere La Valle. The surroundings are peaceful and quiet and the place is beautifully remodeled. The pool is great and the sauna is such a nice extra. The location is perfect for day trips to Siena and Florence. We were looking forward to come back to this relaxing environment after a day of sightseeing. We wished we could have stayed longer.

We will be back

Of all of our great experiences on our Italian vacation, this is the one place we stayed where we said "we will be back!" Jerome was a great host. The property, apartment, spa and pool were all top notch. The location was great. Close enough to Castellina in Chianti (as well as delicious wineries), but also nice and remote. We highly recommend this place!

1) Very good location between Florence (45 min) and Sienna (35 mins) if you are interested in frequenting museums 2) No problems with heating, warm water and functionality. So very comfortable (one has to value it in a tuscan villa) 3) Great sauna zone for relaxation (used every day) 4) Multiple vineyards within 10 minutes ride)

Unique, peaceful experience

My 3 sisters and I stayed here for 4 nights. We LOVED the tranquil setting. Our 2 bedroom 2 bath accommodations were very comfortable. Jasmina was gracious and helped us whenever we needed. A special treat was our massage with Rosa. It was a perfect ending to our trip to Tuscany. Jerome was speedy in replying to any request we had and supplied a great list of recommendations while there. My heart is joyous whenever I reflect on my time at this special place! Thank you to all who helped make it memorable!

Serene location

We had a wonderful week long stay in the Belvedere apartment. Apartment was well equipped and clean with plenty of space for 3 adults and 4 children. The villa is beautiful and in the most tranquil area within a short driving distance to picturesque towns and cities in Tuscany. The pool area was clean and well maintained and we spent a few evenings enjoying the spa facilities. The august weather was beautiful but the lack of air conditioning could be quite uncomfortable in the apartment. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to return on our next trip to Italy

Beautiful Tuscan Villa

We had a lovely visit to Tuscany while staying in the Podere La Valle Villa. Plenty of room and privacy for two couples. No TV but we didn’t miss it. The grounds are nice and the spa is added bonus. Lots of steps around the complex but not difficult. The coffee machine , which required a short walk from our unit, was awesome. We didn’t experience the walking trails because of the rainy weather in Feb. but they looked like fun. Pretty views. There is a washer and dryer but it also required going out of the unit and around the building. Location was fabulous for visiting the area. Castellina has lots to offer.

Parfait pour découvrir le Chianti en famille !

Idéalement situé (difficile de faire mieux) Belle bâtisse parfaitement rénovée. Tres belle balades faciles d'acces et tres bien indiquées, avec une mention spéciale pour le parcours 2 (passage du labyrinthe naturel). Jerome a pris le temps de nous faire visiter la distillerie. Merci ! Le belvedere est spacieux bien équipé et propose de nombreux couchages. Il ne lui manque qu'un extérieur directement reli. Toutefois Podere la Valle offre beaucoup d'options pour s'installer, déjeuner/diner (coins bbq, tables picnic, etc) en extérieur avec une tres belle vue. Merci encore pour ce séjour ! Nous y retournerons avec plaisir et l'avons deja recommande a des amis. Antoine et Cecile

About the host

Hosted by Jérôme GLORIE

Host profile image
My Name is Jerome GLORIE, i love Tuscany where i come and stay since 40 years. I'm 67y, father of 2 daughters. We grow 3,5 ha of aromatic plants around the farmhouse, we distillate them and produce essential oils and hydrosols. I live 1/2 here, 1/2 in Brussels, Belgium.

Why they chose this property

The Podere La Valle exhale a exciting historical smell : 1000 years ago pilgrims travelled the property and rest in a small "hospital" (visible ruins 300m from the house).
In the forest you will see wild boards and roes. Nice views on the Chianti landscape, one of the most beautiful in Europe.

What makes this property unique

The Podere is a jewel in this area. very comfortable accommodation, fit for everybody, from a young couple with kids, family or less fit people.
