Villa Colombaio, Country-house In Wine Estate 5km from Siena

What a dream. Our family felt like we were in a fairytale from the views, to the quiet countryside, and the accommodation history & charm. We enjoyed a private cooking class in villa…as well as a local horseback ride though the countryside. The villa was very spacious…and stocked with wine. You will love this dream vacation villa! The administrative representation was punctual and accommodating as well. Best time ever!!

A true tuscan experience in the hills of Sienna. Located on a vineyard, this complex of homes spread out through the huge property offer privacy and memorable views. A car is required as taxi service is scarce, and restaurants are a 10 minute drive away. Lavinia and her family oversee the whole operation and are remarkable in their service. Our family will remember this property as the best part of our vacation.

We arrived to find breathtaking views across the vineyard estate and beyond. The villa was spacious with ample gardens and the kitchen well equipped. The pool was a short walk. It was extremely hot during our stay (reaching over 40 degrees) but the fans in the bedrooms enabled us to sleep. We had a wonderful stay.

Absolutely magical property. Loved sharing the communal pool. Gave us an opportunity to meet people from all over Europe. The house is absolutely comfortable and stays cool even on hot summer nights. Thank you to Lavinia, Aldo and Paula and Tullio for making our stay so special.

At the end of September our family of 7 enjoyed the property. The home was clean, a good assortment of cooking utensils, and great walking trails around the property. Aldo arranged for us to have a cooking class on the property....I would suggest if you do that, do not wait until the last night prior to leaving. We had a lot of leftovers that we just had to leave behind.(The dinner was very tasty....just too much.)

Stunning location. Beautiful light and views over the neigbouring countryside. You can (just about) see the Siena skyline in the distance. It is about 10 minutes to Siena ring road. The last 2km or so is on an unpaved road through the countryside. The property itself is very spacious with large rooms and wide and open common spaces. When hot, it is best to keep the shutters closed to keep the heat out so it can be a bit dark inside. It is deliberately rustic - some might say it is a bit dated in places with throws covering some older sofas for example (although still very comfortable I should add). The family owners are very friendly and easy to deal with. The pool is maybe 30 yards away across the grass and while shared with a couple of other villas, it is so close it feels like your own. Good size as well. Overall, we had a lovely week and really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful part of Italy. Easily driveable. Very spacious

We stayed at the property from March 25 to March 30. The vacation was a family one and we stayed in two villas ( including this one ). Our stay was a very lovely and relaxing one, the views and atmosphere of the property are nothing short of stunning. We were greeted with a fruit basket and others tasties by our hosts, provided with a tour of the villas to inform us of all the facilities and provided a brief on what we could do within the town of Siena. Out stay in Siena was very enjoyable, from the property we could drive to the bus station about 5 mins away and take a bus into the center of town to enjoy the attractions of Siena. Given another opportunity, my family and I will visit Tenuta Larnianone, especially at Colombaio. It was a gorgeous and heavenly place to spend a family vacation.

We had a wonderful time in this amazing property. The house is clean, well fitted out and have all you need. Anna and Duccio were always available and anxious to ensure our comfort. The bread ,fruit, wine and cheese which they provided on the day we arrived at the Villa was a warm welcome. The location is great. The possibility of wondering around in a wine estate is priceless. We would like to visit again in the Fall to learn how grapes are harvested and wine is made. Highly recommendable!

We received a very warm welcome on our arrival. Everyone we came into contact with was extremely kind and nice. The house is very cozy and comfy, the first floor is particularly well designed for welcoming big groups of people. We were able to eat outside, under the porch, most of our staying and to have nice bbqs. Duccio and Anna were amazing hosts. We were recommended great things to do in the area and we enjoyed some one-day trips in the area. Recommended!

When we arrived late on a Saturday afternoon, Anna was there to greet us with a big smile and warm reception. It was a perfect start to a month in the perfect place. She showed us around and answered all of our questions and let us get settled in. I had asked if they could provide some wine for our first few days in case we didn't have time to get to a store. There was a good supply of their wine (Tenuta Larnianone) waiting for us - we especially liked the Bragia. It was just an example of how they provide great service; anything we requested was provided promptly and with a smile. The villa is roomy (5 bedrooms with a total of 8 beds); 3 full baths, huge living and dining areas - our group was 8 people for almost 2 weeks and we were never cramped. The kitchen is quite well equipped and fully functional; we cooked dinner every night for 28 nights. The environment around the villa is heavenly: The views are exceptional - vineyards, wheat fields, forests, rolling hills, distant villas and towns - a classic Tuscan setting. There is the constant sound of song birds, pheasants, doves, and various other birds. We occasionally saw dear and other wildlife. There is a peacefulness and beauty that makes it a perfect getaway. Anna and Duccio were around but never intruding. We had two different family groups over our 28 day stay; and twice Duccio providing interesting and informative tours of the wine cellar (The Cantina). They provide a weekly cleaning service that was thorough and efficient. Well worth the cost. As we were planning to leave both Anna and Duccio warmly expressed their thanks for our staying at their villa; and welcomed us back. We highly recommend Villa Colombaio and Tenuta Larnianone. If we ever go back to Tuscany, we will stay at Tenuta Larnianone.
