House of Alice is a lovely apartment with spectacular views from the bedroom window. We thoroughly enjoyed the charming village and the friendly people who live there. Our driving time was 1-2 hours to visit the areas we wanted to explore.

Heaven on Earth!
The house of Alice was stunningly located close to Montalcino! The sunrise from one of the bedrooms will wake you up in the morning (in the most beautiful way). This is your Tuscan dream made into reality: location, views & the charming town!

First Trip to Italy
Quaint apartment, with enough amenities for a great six day stay! The parking is a little tough, but the location and views are fabulous. The pellet stove needs to have directions for the renter when it is cooler weather. I would definitely say again. Francesco was great and helped me with a lot of questions!:)

lovely apartment
The apartment was in a quaint older area in the middle of the beautiful rolling hills of Tuscany. It is off the beaten path with just a few restaurants, but we loved being in a quiet area. The views were amazing! We had a bit of a time locating the apartment, but the staff was available and super helpful.

House of Alice was amazing. The beautiful village of Castelnuovo Del’Abate was like a fairy tale. Perfectly situated for day trips all over Tuscany. The house itself was beautiful, and met every expectation.

A beautiful apartment, ideally situated allowing you to explore the various sites in the Tuscany region. Breathtaking vistas as you drive between towns and attractions. The apartment is attractively designed and furnished. If I had one suggestion, it would be to better equip the kitchen so it is a little easier to prepare your own meals.

Lovely village house conversion, but not enough comfortable chairs for evenings. Also a pity that the open log fire was not operational.

This rental property was fantastic. The property manager was such a gracious host. Visiting Castellunovo dell’abate, Montalcino, and, Montepulciano were the most favorite part of my trip to Italy. I will definitely come back.

Nice Stay Away from the Crowds!
This place was so pretty and away from the touristy areas. We were able to see San Giamigano (sp?). Siena, Montepulciano, Montalcino was very close by. This place is in the middle of the prettiest part of Tuscany!! The place was very nice but could use some racks or hooks for your towels and a place to put your shampoo etc. by the shower. 😁

Lovely Tuscany apartment!
This apartment is a gem. Lovely, cozy, and well-appointed. Beautiful view of the Tuscan countryside from one of the bedrooms! Check-in was seamless and the owner was very responsive. Be aware that Castelnuovo dell’Abate is a small village with one small grocery store and restaurant; for more options you will need to drive to Montalcino (9 km away). This apartment was an excellent home base for exploring the area. Thanks for a wonderful stay!
