Beautiful Tuscan Villa

We had the most beautiful stay, check in was very easy and communication was wonderful. We also booked Elisa who is a private chef that Simone recommended and she was so wonderful, food and hospitality was amazing and highly recommended. Villa is an easy drive to Siena and also a local supermarket. Highly recommended, the views and villa are just spectacular.

Gorgeous home

Our family of five and my parents stayed at this wonderful home in June last year. The location was peaceful and most nights we sat outside with a glass of wine, beautiful food and great company. We loved Siena and were lucky to be there the week of the Palio. The pool, grounds and home are all immaculate and it was a wonderful base to travel from although sometimes it was hard to leave for a day of sightseeing. We feel very lucky having such wonderful memories from our time at Fienile.

Amazing stay

We had such a wonderful vacation and highly recommend staying here. The villa was gorgeous and had everything we needed. The views were spectacular. We were 7 adults and two babies and the fact that we had four rooms with ensuite bathrooms was so convenient. It offered the privacy of a hotel with the downstairs layout allowing us all to be together throughout the day. Francesca was a gracious host and happy to help whenever needed. Since we stayed in April, it wasn't possible to make use of the pool (it was warm enough during one of the days, but they were not able to get the pool ready given bad weather the previous week), but that is to be expected. If we had to nitpick, I'd say the towels could be softer, and the bedding and toiletries could be nicer, but we all did just fine with it.We left hoping we'd be coming back again soon! It was simply amazing.

Un Natale sereno

Abbiamo trascorso alcuni giorni di vacanza a Natale in questa splendida villa. Tutto è stato perfetto! Il caminetto e le accurate decorazioni natalizie ci hanno fatto trascorrere le feste in un clima gioioso. La cucina era perfettamente attrezzata e le stanze da letto erano confortevolissime. Da raccomandare

Quintessential Tuscan Escape!

We had the most amazing stay at this beautiful villa. Everything about it was picturesque and relaxing. This villa has all of the modern amenities but still exudes Tuscan charm. Pre- visit communication was smooth and very prompt. The highlight of the stay was the dinner cooked for us the first night by Chef Vanna and Francesca. I am not exaggerating when I say it was by far the best meal we had during our trip to Tuscany and we ate at many very nice restaurants. If you are booking a stay I would highly recommend trying to schedule a dinner. Francesca was so welcoming and there was nothing better than sitting on the veranda after a long day with a glass of wine and gazing out at the garden and countryside. This was the perfect retreat for 3-4 couples and was a good location for exploring Tuscany. You will need a car as nothing is walkable but don't let that deter you. You will not regret booking a stay here!

A Tuscan Dream

The property is as fabulous as it looks in the pictures. It is located in tranquil countryside close to Siena and is a fantastic base to discover the area or do absolutely nothing! We loved it. Francesca is a fantastic host with great recommendations. The house has its own AC in every room and easy access to a gorgeous pool. Even when it’s hot in the summer, it’s easy to feel comfortable. Highly, highly recommend it!

A perfect Tuscan villa

We stayed at this villa for a fun girls get away. It was absolutely perfect. We spent most of our time in the outdoors spaces which were so comfortable for lounging and dinner. The jasmine that lined the walls and ceiling was so fragrant and beautiful. The pool was a great size, clean and plenty of loungers. The rooms were large and all but one had an on-suite bathroom. The kitchen was stocked perfectly. I would definitely recommend having cars but the remote placement of the villa is exactly why we liked it.

Superb Tuscan villa

Great location. Good facilities. And 5 days of dry and warm weather made for a great break. Children in the pool everyday; adults needed it to be a couple of degrees warmer. But it was only May!

GREAT place

This is the third time that we have stayed at this extraordinary property… Words are unable to describe how wonderful this place is… It’s set in the beautiful Tuscan countryside, centrally, located outside of Sienna. Stunning both day and night. In addition to the accommodations, it is the owners that Really bring this property above and beyond anything else. I highly recommend that you have the private chef experience, with Francesca from the Property, along with a friend of hers, who cook the most exquisite, incredible Italian dinner that you will ever experience… The property is very reasonably priced, … We have traveled the world many many times, and this has to be our favorite place away from home…

This location is the finest VRBO we have ever had the pleasure of visiting. From the first day we were amazed at the beauty and splendour of Borgo la Chiusa. It is beautiful and well appointed. Francesca was friendly and thoughtful in our introduction to this property. She was a delightful host who took the time to make us feel truly at home. She is the best.

Amazing

We hosted our friends at this villa and it was an incredible experience! The villa is immaculate and Francesca did an amazing job ensuring all necessary items (cookingware, towels, etc.) were in the villa. The outdoor space is flawless, and we spent quality time in the outside seating areas listening to the birds, enjoying the sunshine, and taking in the glorious Tuscan landscape! I cannot recommend this location enough. For a couple days, there were people in the adjacent unit, but we never heard them and only saw them twice.

Exceeded our expectations in every way

We were so happy with our stay in this lovely home. The decor is impeccable with modern updates while still holding on to all the history and rustic beauty of this beautiful Tuscan home. Francesca took very good care of us, giving us helpful tips, helping us hire a remarkable private chef for an evening, answering our questions and decorating the house beautifully for Christmas. Our Christmas with our family here could not have been more perfect…complete with a walk to midnight mass at a beautiful old church down the road. This is home is beautiful. We hope to come again someday.

Bliss under the Tuscan sun

The pictures do not do it justice. Upon arrival to the property, we hoped that the villa would look as good as it looked online. The property and villa were far better than expected. Simone and Francesca proactively communicated and made the check-in process easy. Our family and friends all loved the villa, views from the outdoor sitting area, and the location which was a perfect base for day trips throughout Tuscany. We came back early a couple of nights so we could cook, drink wine and enjoy the fabulous setting. We look forward to rebooking when we visit Tuscany in the future!

Perfect place to stay!

I highly recommend this villa. We were given referrals for a chef in the villa and she was beyond our expectations. Gabriella, the owner, is responsive and the property is very clean and well maintained . The landscaping is a PERFECT Tuscan view. We stayed with 2 other couples, for a week, and had a FABULOUS time. I would recommend taking wine tours , Volterra , Siena, and Monteriggioni! The villa is a great place to unwind with family and friends

Spectacular Experience Again!

This was our second trip to Tuscany and our second stay at the Villa Fienile. We can not say enough good things about the Villa, the location and most of all, Francesca and her husband. The property is spotless inside and out. It is set up perfectly for up to 4 couples or a large family. There is plenty of space inside and outside so you do not feel crammed together. The pool is large and private. Francesca has plenty of suggestions for nearby restaurants and if you can plan ahead with her, she will arrange home cooked Tuscan meals prepared by her and her good friend Vanna. Simply amazing! We will see you again, Kevin & Monica
