A magnificent farmhouse in Val d'Orcia, Tuscany
Villa Le Querce is a beautiful farmhouse, renovated to the highest standards in a unique position of the Val d'Orcia, now a UNESCO world heritage site. It is exquisitely furnished and has 5 large bedrooms, all with en-suite bathrooms. Situated on a small rise with extensive manicured lawns, it commands breathtaking views. The large private pool (18 x 6) is located slightly higher and has a large patio and an equally stunning panorama over this beautiful area of Tuscany, including the magnificent Monte Amiata. The farmhouse is surrounded by its own private property of 70 hectares consisting of fields, an orchard and a wood through which, as of the summer of 2007, there will be marked walks.

Further details for the farmhouse in Siena Area, Tuscany, Italy
This is a beautiful farmhouse in a unique position commanding spectacular and uncontaminated views over the Val d'Orcia. Close to some of the best wine-producing areas in Italy, Brunello di Montalcino and Chianti, it is also within easy reach of other Tuscan beauty spots: Pienza, Siena, the spas of Chianciano and S. Casciano Bagni, Monte Amiata, Montepulciano and Radicofani. For golf enthusiasts there is the beautiful 18-hole Lamborghini golf course just 30Km distant at Panicale on the Lake Trasimeno. It is definitely a luxury holiday home, exquisitely furnished with beautifully manicured and extensive grounds and a large private pool.
The large swimming pool, which is 18m x 6m, and being situated slightly higher than the farmhouse has even more spectalur views, has an oxygen generated filter and therefore has NO chlorine.
GUEST BOOK:-' We really had a great time. The rooms were spacious and having lots of bathrooms was brilliant. There was masses of china, we never ran out ! ' (Batty Fenston, August 2005) 'We thought the house and the location were beautiful. The house is very nicely done out and well-equipped, the grounds surrounding the house are lovely. It is nice to have so much space and to be so private. The deer made a couple of appearances which was wonderful to see. We would have no hesitation in recommending the house and the area to anyone. Thank you for providing such a lovely house. ' (Corinne Evans, Jason Banks party, June 2006) 'Siamo stati davvero bene nella sua casa e abbiamo passato 3 giorni molto piacevoli con bel tempo. La casa è davvero molto bella e confortevole. La ringrazio moltissimo della collaborazione e delle sua cordialità. ' (Paolo Grazzini party, Easter 2007)
Other Activities thermal baths and spa.

GUEST BOOK (cont.d) 'We very much enjoyed our stay at Le Querce. The location was superb as was the swimming pool and the view from there over the Val d'Orcia. We also love the whole area as it is much quieter than the Chianti area and in our opinion more beautiful. The house was very spacious which was very important with all these people ! I would certainly recommend Le Querce to any large group, particularly with the annex which is great for the younger generation. ' (Sue Weldon party, July 2006) 'Everybody enjoyed their stay. Especially appreciated was the wonderfully quiet, remote location; the quality and size of the rooms; the bathroom to bedroom ratio; the size of the pool: the warmth and cheerfulness of your staff.' (Butcher/Coward party, August 2007).

Review Submitted: December 06, 2007, Date of stay: December, 2007
We all loved the villa, it was better than we had imagined and hoped for.
It was fantastic, well equipped in extremely peaceful, beautiful surroundings. The pool was in a wonderful, elevated position where you could see for miles.
We put the four teenagers in the annex which proved to be a great hit, they could be as loud as they wanted without disrupting the peacefulness in the main building - perfect.
One of our party managed to video 12 wild boar taking an early evening stroll through the massive gardens - now that's something special.
Many thanks, Karin, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the villa to anyone who makes enquiries. (Debra Ziton, August 2006).
