Podere Colombaio

Farm house one mile from Pienza. Pienza is a historic centre of rare and exquisite beauty. It is found in Tuscany, 40 miles from Siena, in a landscape of evocative beauty. My house faces an expansive valley dominated by Mt. Amiata. An isolated structure, it is surrounded by fields and plenty of beautiful views. The house is called 'Colombaio,' and is characterized by a tower that was once a home for pigeons. The tower structure is typical to the Tuscany area. The house has recently been renovated and retain all the character and charm of the original building with wooden ceilings and cotto floors.

A wonderful stay

Sara-Jane, United Kingdom
Review Submitted: August 19, 2008, Date of stay: August, 2008

We are a young family with a three year old child. We have just returned from a two week stay at Podere Colombaio. We had an excellent holiday, the house was exactly as described on the website and totally lived up to our expectations. The location was perfect, the view amazing, the tranquility etc. All one needs for a wonderfully relaxing holiday. The layout of the house suited us perfectly and our hosts seem to have though of everything.

It felt private and homely. Our hosts, Lucia and Maurizio were wonderfully welcoming and we hardly knew they were there but they were there when we needed something.

The house is five minute walk from Pienza which has a host of amenities, everything we needed we could get in the small town. There are numerous restaurants too.

I can highly recommend Podere Colombaio and I think we will certainly return.
