Photos and Description of this Montepulciano holiday cottage Single unit rental, 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, private parking, sleeps 4 max

The San Benedetto cottage is the old peasant farmer's house attached to the back of a small villa in which the owners (retired elderly couple) live. It has nice furniture, tiled floors and comprises 2 Double bedrooms, Sitting/Dining room, modern Bathroom, Kitchenette and covered Veranda. Spacious gardens on several levels including many flowering shrubs, cypresses, and a beautiful swimming pool, which, together with the flat, enjoys marvelous views across to Montepulciano on the next hilltop as well as over Lake Trasimeno and the pre-Apennines beyond. The property extends to 7 acres of woodland and olive trees. Access is by a steep asphalted drive from the main road which runs between Montepulciano and Chianciano. Montepulciano is 5 minutes away by car and 20 minutes on foot. Immediately South of the Villa the Tuscan hills are crowned by almost unpopulated woodland for 40km. A haunt of dear, wild pig and porcupine. A wonderful place to explore on foot or by car on existing tracks.
