Apartment in a medieval village

Ca Montalcino is a delightful apartment located inside the walls of the ancient castle of San Giovanni d Asso, one of the beautiful villages in the hamlet of Montalcino, in the heart of the Val d Orcia.

It consists of a double bedroom, a sitting room, kitchen and bathroom. It is ideal for two or three people; in the sitting room there is a single sofa bed.

The house, renovated in 2018, overlooks a characteristic courtyard with a well and has a small open space on the back suitable for relaxing on sunny days. A room in the basement houses the laundry room and bicycles, available to guests.

From San Giovanni d Asso you can easily reach many of the most suggestive destinations in the area: from Pienza to Bagno Vignoni, to Rapolano Terme, to Montepulciano and Montalcino itself. Siena, Arezzo, Perugia and the sea are about an hour away.

This charming apartment provided the space and proximity to the festivities I endured while visiting Siena for a friends wedding. The natural beauty of the location is a win in itself. The neighbors were hospitable and the neighborhood itself was serene and meditative.

Exceptional Tuscan Home
How delightful it was to have experienced one of Tuscany's famous hilltop village homes. Filled with charm and character, we slept comfortably through the night! We enjoyed a meal high atop the fortress walls overlooking the valley in a restaurant just across the street! We will be back as soon as possible! Thank you , Silvia!

apartment was neat but very uncomfortable
the apartment was advertised as having air conditioning The air conditioner was in one room, it did not get very cool at all, in fact I could hear the compressor starting and stopping every 5 minutes. There was no fan to move air into the bedroom thus we were forced to sleep in a room that was probably 30C (86F). The rental owner was not in town and we were greeted by an associate. When I asked about a fan she offered no help. I was completely dissatisfied with this rental. It is quite obvious that VRBO does not investigate the accuracy of the listings and therefore I do not understand how VRBO justifies the fee that is charged. I respectfully request a refund of 2 nites rental for this property. I will be persuing this with my credit card company.

10 wunderschöne Tage in der Toskana
Silvia stand uns von Anfang an bei jeder Frage zur Verfügung!!! Das Ferienhaus ist perfekt für zwei Personen und hat alles was man alltäglich benötigt. Evtl. einmal Wechselhandtücher, wenn man 10 Tage oder länger bleibt ;-) Es waren 10 Tage Toskana pur !!! Grazie Mille :-) Liebe Grüße Sven und Jacqueline

La casa è quasi indipendente. Piccola ma molto particolare e graziosa, si trova praticamente all'interno di un piccolo borgo. Per entrarci dal parcheggio si passa dentro una rocca medievale: da cinema! Il paesaggio intorno è meraviglioso e decisamente tranquillo. Bastano circa 20Km per essere a Montalcino, Pienza, Montepulciano, ecc. La casa è molto ben tenuta, pulita con clima, riscaldamenti e tutti i comfort. Consigliata per una coppia o, al limite, coppia con bambino.

Sono stato diverse volte in Val d’Orcia, che è un luogo meraviglioso. Questa casa è deliziosa, molto ben accessoriata, in un borgo tranquillo . Il paesino ha tutti i servizi principali ed attorno il paesaggio lascia senza fiato. Dal paese si raggiungono i più bei luoghi della Val d’Orcia, diversi siti termali , si può assaggiare tartufo e ottimi vini. Abbiamo fatto anche dei giri con le biciclette a disposizione degli ospiti. Grazie per tutto!
