Heating During the Winter Months
To ensure your comfort during the colder periods, heating is available at La Vignaccia.
La Vignaccia features an independent heating system, allowing you to adjust the temperature to your desired comfort level.

Please note:
The cost of heating is extra and will be calculated based on your actual consumption. A meter will track your actual methane gas consumption for heating. This usage will be charged at the end of your stay at a rate of €2.5 per m3.

Here are some tips for using the heating system efficiently and minimizing costs:
- If you're going out for a few hours or during the night, lower the temperature to avoid wasting energy;
- during sunny days, open the curtains to let in the sun's warmth and reduce the need to use the heating;
- ensure all doors and windows are tightly closed to prevent heat from escaping.
- instead of raising the temperature too high, wear warm clothes and layers to stay comfortable.

Heating is typically necessary during the autumn, winter, and early spring months.
There is no minimum heating charge, regardless of usage.
For further information or clarification, please do not hesitate to contact the property owner.

Local tourist tax: €6 per person.

Wonderful stay
We had an absolutely brilliant stay at Emma's house. The house itself is beautifully decorated and has everything we needed. The outside space is perfect, lovely places to sit, beautiful views. The pool is excellent, great size, with 8 sun loungers and plenty of shade. Would absolutely recommend. The area was great too for exploring the region. Lovely local restaurants. Would definitely return.

Wunderschöne Steinvilla mit rustikalem Charme
Geschmackvoll eingerichtetes Haus, bereits etwas in die Jahre gekommen aber alles funktioniert, angenehm kühl in den Innenräumen, großzügige Küche mit großem Kühl- und Gefrierschrank, schöner Garten, toller Pool, herrlicher Ausblick - besonders bei Sonnenuntergang. Einzig, dass gleich daneben ein weiteres(kleineres) Ferienhaus am Areal steht, war aus der Beschreibung nicht zu entnehmen. Da durch Hecke abgetrennt zwar kaum Sichtkontakt, aber Terrasse der Villa und Schlafräume der "Scheune" sind einander zugewandt und dies könnte zu Konflikten bzgl. Lautstärke führen... Check-In und Check-Out waren freundlich und unkompliziert... Es gibt auch Olivenöl des Hauses, welches sehr schmackhaft ist... Beschauliches kleines Dorf - fußläufig erreichbar - 2 kleine Cafebars, 1 entzückender Krämerladen, Apotheke und 1 Cantina. Sowie auf dem gegenüber liegenden Hügel ein nettes Bio-Weingut zur Verkostung... Ales in Allem ein sehr empfehlenswertes Haus mit Postkartenpanorama! PS: Buchung unkompliziert... Die Kommunikation mit Vrbo bezüglich der unsicheren Corona-Lage war hingegen äußerst mühsam... Wir bedanken uns bei Frau Sestini für den schönen Aufenthalt!

Vacanze di Capodanno
Con un gruppo di 7 amici ho trascorso le mie vacanze di capodanno alla "Vignaccia". La casa di Emma e' stato il nostro luogo di riposo ma anche base per visitare alcuni meravigliosi borghi della Toscana e dell'Umbria. La casa e' accogliente, molto spaziosa ed arredata con molta cura. Avremmo voluto godere di piu' dei suoi spazi all'aperto e della bellissima veranda, ma in questa stagione abbiamo trascorso il nostro tempo libero davanti al bel camino acceso. Le camere sono spaziose e i letti confortevoli. Tutto questo ci ha permesso di trascorrere una bella vacanza.

The perfect Toscany house!
A lovely house and garden to stay with friends and family just a short walk to the nearest village. Our 9 months old loved this place. So did we and our four other friends. Many nice places to hang out in the shade and in the sun outside and inside, to eat and drink and enjoy the nice view over the Toscany landscape. The pool area was very nice and clean and the house had everything you can wish for.

About the host

Hosted by Emma Sestini

Host profile image
I'm Emma and my family owns this property, named La Vignaccia, since it was built as a farmers house in the 19th century.
I moved in in the 80's and I fully restore the house, the barn and all the property, I planted a garden and built a swimming pool (we have two swimming pool rigth now) and the horse stables.
I lived in this house until 2008, when it became too big for myself alone and I decided to restore the horse stable to move there. I still leave in the estate and I personally look after it, but without interfere with my guest: they will benefit by having me at a hand, but enjoying their privacy in the swimming pool and garden.

Why they chose this property

La Vignaccia is a true tuscan farm house, but with all the necessary comforts. It has a wonderfull view but it's nearby a small village, Pergine Valdarno, with shops and restaurant.
It's position is ideal to visit the heart of Tuscany. At the center of a triangle between Firenze, Siena and Arezzo gives the guest to reach all the main tuscan cities in a short time so that everyday they can take a oneday tour around, or just rest in the swimming pool.
The big kitchen is ideal for cooking classes that we can arrange with the partnership of professional chefs and the Chianti area with all its vineyards and wine cellars are at a short distance.

What makes this property unique

By staying at La Vignaccia you will have the chance to enjoy the sunset over the tuscan hills from your porch, the garden or the swimming pool. You will enjoy a true italian and tuscan holiday.
