Photos and Description of this Peccioli holiday villa 4 Bedrooms,3 bathrooms;wireless internet;close to S.Gimignano,Volterra and Pisa

Il Villino Rosso della Fattoria di Monti stands on top of a hill at the end of a tree-lined road. The newly restored red villa was used in the past as a stable and then as the farm manager’s house. Today it is called “Il Villino Rosso” or the Red House because of it’s very beautiful red plaster work. It is located in a big working farm with cows and few horses in a 300 years old olive grove, where to walk around. It has a beautiful position up on a hill with a gorgeous view of the surrounding hills, some topped with ancient villages:Volterra is the most impressive; it is a great location from which to explore the area and even for some longer day trips. A self-catering and beautiful villa, nicely appointed with all the conveniences, to feel very at home. The swimming pool is private for the guests and has the most amazing views and a black interior which creates a mirror-like appearance. 4 bedrooms that can either be made up as twin or double and 3 bathrooms; sleeps 9 .

Review Submitted: December 6, 2007 Date of Stay: December 2007
Just as all other have indicated before us in this book, our stay at villa Casa Rossa only deserves superlatives. Long after the details of what we did during our 2 weeks sojourn fades from memory we will always recall the warmth, charm and generous spirit of the people of Ghizzano and Villa Monti. Vicky you are a phenomenal Tuscan “ambassador”. Your passion and zest for the Tuscan way of life and all your blessing in this historically glorious region makes it come alive…I’ll always remember the wonderful birthday dinner that you and my husband conspired on. It was exquisite

Relaxing Villa in Tuscany

Lancashire Family Lancashire
Review Submitted: September 2, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
Our family (four adults, two children, aged 10 and 11) thoroughly enjoyed our 7 day stay at Villino Rosso. The internal accommodation is excellent, with all the comforts you would expect. The external features are great too, with a super pool in the most amazing surroundings. The hosts are very welcoming and helpful. We would recommend this villa to a family or families wanting a relaxing holiday, away from it all. A car is a necessity, as the villa is located several miles from the nearest town, and a drive of at least 20-30 minutes is needed to get to restaurants and supermarkets.

Perfection in Tuscany

Doctor Mary Cheadle Hulme, Cheshire, UK
Review Submitted: May 22, 2008 Date of Stay: April 2008
This beautiful property surpassed all our expectations. The peaceful location was just as described with wonderful views & the house itself was spacious, elegant & spotlessly clean. The furnishings & kitchen equipment were of the highest quality & the 3 bathrooms were modern & stylish. The pool, in a sheltered garden setting, was immaculately maintained. The owners were outstandingly generous & helpful without being at all intrusive. Vicky made us some delicious meals & kindly showed us round their historic home, with its ancient private chapel, olive press & secret passage. The olive oil she had produced was a special treat.
Being centrally situated in Tuscany, Villino Rosso makes an ideal base for visiting the famous historic cities. Even with children aged 7 & 10 we easily managed trips to Florence, Volterra, San Gimignano, Pisa & Lucca. The nearest village is nearly 4 miles away, the road being partly unpaved, but the bakery & grocery there are excellent & we did not find the distance a problem. A car, however, is definitely essential.
The area is a joy for birdlovers with a colony of nesting bee-eaters.
We highly recommend this property & fully intend to return.
