Description
Il Canto del Sole is the result of the careful renovation of an old barn used to house agricultural equipment. It has been turned into 2 apartments, each with 2 bedrooms, a bathroom and a kitchenette. The apartments have air conditioning throughout, a fridge and satellite TV. They are furnished with rustic Tuscan furniture and have a small garden overlooking the swimming pool.

"Il Podere Casino" is an old 18 th century Tuscan farmhouse. We have recently restored it, preserving all its original features. The Farmhouse offers 6 rooms, each furnished with the simple furniture originally found in them, which has been carefully restored. The rooms are all very light and airy and offer a complete range of facilities: satellite TV, fridge, bathroom with shower and hair dryer.

Both structures are surrounded by around one hectare of shady gardens, immersed in the heart of the crete senesi countryside.

They are just 9 km from Siena (Porta Romana) and 1 km from the "Grancia di Cuna" (a 13th century fortified farmhouse on the Via Francigena).

We offer our guests: a salt water swimming pool (7 x 14), children's play areas, a barbecue area and a panoramic terrace above our wine cellar, with views over the Val d'Arbia. During the winter, breakfast and dinner are served in a large dining room with a central fireplace, while during the summer, they are served in the external courtyard. A pool table and a selection of games are available to guests in the lemon room, adjacent to the lounge.

In addition to cooking, we (Luciano and Laura) are at your complete disposal for any information or suggestions for walks, mountain biking, horse riding and car excursions. In addition to the gardens, we also have around three hectares of land where you will find our horses' paddocks, a small vineyard and vegetable crops grown exclusively for use by our family and our guests.

Hey from Laura, Luciano & Marco

Member since August 2005 | 47,564 hits
Family welcome in a Tuscan farmhouse restored with art.

For Laura, an expert in food and animals, Luciano, a lover of horses and nature, and his son Marco,
hospitality is a window on the world: their mission is to discover the traditions of magic
landscapes of the Crete Senesi in a charming Tuscan farmhouse ten kilometers from the historic center of Siena.

Surrounded by a large park of about one hectare, the B&B "Il Canto del Sole" is composed of two buildings carefully restored and furnished in the Tuscan style of the poor.

To make your stay more attractive contribute typical regional dishes served in the outdoor courtyard or
in the living room with fireplace, salt water pool and the terrace.

Magnificent structure benefiting from a quiet setting in the Tuscan countryside. Very beautiful park with a lovely pool equipped with enough sunbeds. The buffet breakfasts are delicious and varied. The staff is very welcoming and professional. Nearby tourist sites, such as the city of Siena, the Chianti route, the villages of the Sienese hills. In summary, a very beautiful and relaxing holiday week.

We (party of 3 friends) loved everything about Il Canto Del Sole. The location is very serene on a solitary patch of land. It is very clean, and well maintained. The check-in process was very easy and the actual reception by Luciano was very welcoming and helpful with great tips and advice. The room was very nice, good air conditioning for the hot summer days and nights. The swimming pool is a good size with differing depths which is great. The whole terrain was laden with spots to sit outside, not just at your own apartment (which also had its own space). Breakfast was also great. So nothing but positive remarks. We would highly recommend anyone to stay here, whether you are with friends or as a family. We would return ourselves!

This is a very special place. The owners do everything they can to make your stay wonderful. The grounds are beautiful. This is my second visit and I would recommend it to anyone. It is a little isolated, but that may be part of the charm.

I was a guest at this farmhouse for a weekend when I had to go to a wedding. I am also disabled and was alone, so they were super welcoming and helpful, assisting me with everything quickly! I would have stayed with them for weeks! I hope to return soon, it's great, the place looks like it's designed when you imagine a farmhouse in Tuscany. Thanks again for everything! See you soon.

We stayed at the property for four nights. The owners, Luciano and Laura, are two simple, helpful, and very kind people with all the clients of the property. Even the cleaning staff contributes to make the property 'Top' for courtesy and excellent room cleanliness. The place is enchanting: unspoiled landscape, clean air and guaranteed relaxation also from the splendid pool, equipped with all comforts (sunbeds, umbrellas, wooden table with benches, covered, small table with chairs for the little ones, barbecue corner). What more to say: we will definitely come back!
