Photos and Description of this Volterra holiday farmhouse Converted ancient chapel with 3 bedrooms, sleeps 4, close to Volterra, peaceful

Casa Nunziata was restored about seven years ago to the highest standard, now creating a beautiful three bedroom home that is perfect for holidays. There is central heating for the colder months. The house stands alone on a small hill, surrounded by a grassy private garden overlooking rolling Tuscan countryside. The house has outdoor furniture for alfresco dining, a BBQ, and shares a large pool with a few apartments in the nearby farmhouse. Nunziata is reached by a winding white road with little traffic, but is not isolated, sharing a large communal garden with the old farmhouse. There are lots of walks in the area, details of can be found at the house. Nearby is Monte Voltaio, a remarkable rocky hill which is easily climbed for magnificent views of the surrounding countryside. Please note: Casa Nunziata is not suitable for large or loud groups wishing to party into the night, and we ask our guests to respect the tranquillity of the area. Nearby Volterra is a charming hill-top town.

The chapel is set in stunning countryside, reached via white road but close to Volterra. It is an easy drive to San Gimignano, Monteriggione, Sienna, Pisa and Florence. It is also easy to catch a train from Poggibonsi to Florence and be delivered into the heart of the city without any parking hassles. Volterra offers many shops, cafes and restaurants and the food is excellent. There are many vineyards locally to visit, and the beach at Cecina is about an hour's drive away, with pretty villages to visit en route. Close to the chapel is Villa Palagione, a beautifully restored villa now used as a cultural centre, and they welcome our guests for coffee or an evening meal. There are many lovely walks to discover, and we have put a folder of maps and guidance notes in the house, Most of all, it is simply a beautiful place to be.
