This house in Tuscany, located on the hillside in a forest with complete privacy, is a complete gem. The pictures show exactly the layout of this beautiful house, the views, and the infinity pool, which is a real luxury. In fact, it is obvious that much thought went into the planning and renovation of the place, radiating a feeling of high quality. We have stayed in many VRBO houses, and our family gives this place the highest score yet. The middle floor contains the kitchen and living room where people can get together, while the top and bottom floors have the bedrooms and bathrooms (the bottom floor can serve as a separate and more private unit if needed). The middle floor has one smaller bedroom and bathroom. The house is equipped with all that one would need. The village of Sarteano is a few minutes drive away. It's worth climbing up all the way to the castle, and up to its very top for the views. There is a Coop supermarket in town and a little further is a larger Pam with a little mall. The village is about 10 min off the major highway A1, and so is an adequate point for taking day tours in the closer villages and thermal baths, or to the more distant towns (Siena, Florence). The owner, Jens, is very responsive and welcoming, and so is Lucia who manages the place. Bottom line - super place for a family vacation.
