Holiday house with private pool and fenced garden

Podere il Chiassale is an old farmhouse dating from 1850 and was last renovated in 2024. The holiday home is situated at the foot of Voterra and combines Tuscan architectural style with modern amenities.
The open-plan professional kitchen offers everything even the most discerning chefs could wish for. The house is equipped with internet access, air conditioning and three satellite TV sets. The open-plan living and dining area features a fireplace, which creates a cosy atmosphere in inclement weather. For pizza lovers, there is a special wood-fired oven.
The house has a portico measuring approx. 40 square metres, offering plenty of shaded space for hot days. A large table invites you to dine, as does the spacious open terrace measuring approx. 100 square metres.
The 12x6-metre swimming pool is situated on a higher level and is equipped with a cosy seating area and pool loungers. The pool is heated during the colder months, meaning it can now be used even in May or October/November!
From the fully fenced-in grounds, you have a magnificent view of the surrounding hills and Volterra.
The rustico is situated in the heart of Tuscany; San Gimignano is about 20 minutes away, whilst Florence, Pisa, Siena and the coast are approximately an hour’s drive away. We organise cookery courses, horse riding tours, walks and a private chef service on request!

If required, a flat-rate heating charge of €20 per day will be applied. The pool is heated from 1 May to 15 October; on request, it can also be heated from early April until early November. In this case, a surcharge of €20 per day will be applied. The cost of air conditioning is €0.80 per kilowatt-hour, and €0.60 for the wall box used to charge electric cars.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, which features a fireplace and a private pool. There's a private patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a Smart television is provided for your entertainment.

This beautiful villa is the perfect place for a Tuscan home base as you explore all that Tuscany has to offer. Juergen and Gabriele were very communicative and their assistant Benyiman so responsive when we needed to reach out. The home was clean and perfectly located to explore Volterra, San G, Sienna, and Florence. We were so blessed to have a comfortable place to stay after busy days of exploring. The only thing I'd recommend would be a house guide book that would help guests navigate the appliances and all that the house has to offer.

This property exceeded our expectation and was fantastic. Juergen and Gabi were the best hosts anyone could hope to have when staying abroad. Every recommendation for food, touring or wine tasting was absolutely spot on. We will be back and have already been recommending to our friends and family.

Wonderful villa in the heart of Tuscany

We really enjoyed our 10 day stay, beds were comfortable and everything was clean, the pool was fantastic with an amazing view. Lots of space for two couples to relax and unwind yet within an hour of all the major towns and attractions. Jurgen was responsive to our needs and even helped us with the pizza oven. We will definitely consider staying here again.

Home away from home…

Our family thoroughly enjoyed the stay at the villa and area. It was a peaceful place to unwind with easy access to Volterra and the Tuscan countryside. The property has a relaxed elegance with several indoor and outdoor living spaces to eat, work or just rest. The management and owners were delightful to work with and immediately responsive to our needs.

We loved our villa! The rooms were comfortable- clean and great beds, linens. The kitchen was fully stocked and easy to use. The pool was cold, but the grandkids loved it, swimming 2x/day! The location was great. We could get to other hilltop towns and Volterra was closely. Gabriele is AMAZING! She is cheerful, helpful, and replies quickly to concerns. Plus, a kitty visited us daily.

Wonderful time in countryside of Volterra

The property was well stocked, nicely furnished, comfortable beds, lovely outside eating areas and a beautiful pool. Jürgen and Gabi were incredible hosts, available for any questions and just a lovely couple. The town of Volterra (about 15 mins) is a hidden gem and we made 2 trips to visit. Well situated to Siena, Florence and Lucca. We would absolutely stay again and were sad to leave the beautiful views!

Fabulous villa in a beautiful location!!

We absolutely loved our stay in this storybook villa which was perfect from beginning to end! The home was gorgeous, comfortable, well appointed and hosts could not have been nicer and more responsive. They even offered to drive us to dinner one night! The house and kitchen have everything you could need and their recommendations for restaurants and tour guides made the trip! We would absolutely stay here again and look forward to doing just that!

Beautiful, comfortable, clean and well stocked home with an amazing huge pool. Plenty of outdoor seating and dining options. The owners live next door and were gracious and helpful hosts. Air conditioning is in the 3 upstairs bedrooms and the main living room area downstairs. Bocce set and a grassy area to play. We even had one of their cats ‘adopt’ us during our stay which we welcomed. There are good dining options within 5-10 mins of the house and the incredible town of Volterra is about a 20 minute drive.

Very nice house and swimming pool in Tuscany

Very nice house with fenced swimming pool, ideal for families with small children. Airconditioning only in the bedrooms, but this was not a problem despite a week with every day 30+ °C. The only minor point is that the second bathroom on the first floor is VERY small.

A beautiful home in a peaceful oasis! This house is perfectly situated with easy access to Volterra for shopping and restaurants but also a beautiful country setting. Our hosts were so kind and attentive. We will definitely be back to stay again! The house has everything you need to pass a lovely holiday. We especially appreciated to comfortable large beds and lovely soaker tub. We visited over Easter and the weather did not cooperate but we look forward to returning in the summer time to enjoy the large swimming pool. Even in poor weather we had a lovely stay with cozy evening fires and afternoon walks in the surrounding countryside.

Beyond our Tuscan dreams

Trip of a liferime. Everyone’s favorite part of this vacation, the Villa This remote retreat is set about 10 minutes away from Volterra. Gabbi and Jurgen are the most delightful hosts. They treated us and our two young grandchildren like family. All their recommendations were spot on. The setting was movie -like. The renovated villa is as charming as the hosts. The house was spotlessly, clean, and well equipped. The beds were wonderfully comfortable. The kitchen is eat- in and has all the amenities. You definitely need a car.. there is so much to explore, but this was our most perfect and magical home base.
