Bellissimo Collosodo!
Posted Oct. 17, 2023 on HomeAwayWe are joining the chorus of other reviewers who have raved about their stay at Collosodo. My husband and I stayed for nearly a month and loved it.
The house feels like home and Elena and Fabio couldn’t be more gracious. They live on the other side of the house and take meticulous care of the
house and the grounds, which include the lovely pool. They were around and checked in regularly to make sure everything was okay but were also considerate of our privacy and so were never intrusive. But because they were around, unlike other VRBO rentals that we’ve had where the owners lived far away, they were readily available with friendly smiles and attended to any minor issues that arose. They also gave us great tips for eating out and places to visit and shop for food.
The house is very comfortable with a nice size kitchen that is well outfitted. It was great to arrive and have eggs and juice in the fridge and pastries on
the counter along with all of the necessary staples in the cabinets. There is plenty of space in the bathrooms for toiletries, lots of blankets in the closets (although we never needed them) and plenty of fresh towels every week. I combed every review before I arrived and no one mentioned the beds. So I’m adding that they are firm and provide good back support.
Most of all, the views are absolutely sensational! A painter, I came with the intention of painting the scenery in the area. I painted everyday from the yard!
Grazie mille Elena e Fabio!

Lovely home, wonderful pool, ideal for the family
Posted Jul. 25, 2023 on HomeAwayWe stayed in this lovely house near Montichiello with our children which is a great base for the local towns of Pienza and Montepulciano.
The children loved the pool and the house is brilliantly spacious, having three bathrooms which was excellent. All the bathrooms are well equipped, with space for all your toiletries and makeup.
Absolutely the best pool of any house we've rented via VRBO. The kitchen has everything you need to cook, and it was very kind of Elena to provide washing liquid, detergent etc for the appliances which meant we did not have to purchase everything! Montichiello has all the basic things you need too, we loved having a drink at La Guardiola and dinner at La Porta was lovely.
Elena and Fabio are a lovely couple who looked after us very well. Thank you for providing a wonderful holiday house with such a picturesque location!

Beautiful view, amazing pool
Posted Jul. 11, 2023 on HomeAwayWe had a wonderful stay at this idyllic Tuscan house. The views are really incredible from the house. The pool was so refreshing, surprisingly big, and immaculately clean. Elena and Fabio were very kind and helpful. We really enjoyed our stay!

Best views of Tuscany Rollinghills
Posted Apr. 27, 2023 on HomeAwayThis was one of the most beautiful and panoramic views of the Tuscany country side and rolling hills that one could wish for. Elena and her husband were excellent hosts and made sure we were comfortable and our stay was worry free. We enjoyed relaxing in the garden and having a glass of Tuscany wine admiring the peaceful scenic views. We had just visited Rome and needed some quiet time. I highly recommend staying here if you are looking for that true Italian Tuscany countryside experience.

Magnificent
Posted Oct. 16, 2022 on HomeAwayThis stay was one of our BEST experiences on VRBO. The hosts Elena and Fabio were both so welcoming and hospitable. They were immediately available for any questions and also suggestions of the local area. The property is so centrally located with incredible views of three destinations right from the villa! It was so easy to get around Tuscany. Montechiello was just 5 minutes away and was so charming. Also, has some amazing Michelin rated restaurants. The villa was spacious and very accommodating. We certainly hope to come back someday and would never want to stay anywhere else! Thank you Elena and Fabio for making our Tuscan dreams come true!!

Amazing view, beautiful stay
Posted Sep. 27, 2022 on HomeAwayWe loved this quiet little getaway just outside town. The view from the house is unbelievable, and the house itself is so picturesque and lovely. Such friendly hosts, we truly felt at home here. Thank you so much for opening your home to us! We had such a wonderful stay.

The perfect Tuscan location
Posted Jul. 5, 2022 on HomeAwayWe booked the house a year ago and were not disappointed. The house lies just outside the small village of Monticchiello overlooking the town and the via dei cipressi - arguably the prettiest road in Tuscany. The road to the house is a Strada Bianca and quite steep, so be prepared for some dust and rattling. Elena greeted us and showed us the house enthusiastically. Although English was limited, we communicated without problems. The rooms are large and although not air conditioned, the stone walls and nighttime breezes kept temperatures comfortable (we stayed there during a fortnight with daytime temperatures in the 97-100F range). The swimming pool was a great boon. The kitchen was well equipped and a washing machine made it easy to keep clothes clean. Internet was sufficient for most things (and let’s face it, you’re not here to be gaming!). Pienza and Montepulciano are both visible from the house and about 15 minutes away. We would definitely stay here again. Mille grazie Elena e Fabio!

Wonderful stay at Agriturismo Collosodo
Posted Jun. 7, 2022 on HomeAwayWe were visiting Monticchiello for a wedding and had an amazing stay at Agriturismo Collosodo. Elena was so welcoming and told us everything we needed to know about the house and village. She was easy to contact prior to checking in and made everything very easy for us. The house had everything we needed and was within walking distance of the village. The views were incredible and we spent most of our time relaxing at the beautiful pool. We had a brilliant weekend and I would recommend Elena and her house to everyone!

A truly wonderful holiday in a fabulous house
Posted Aug. 2, 2020 on HomeAwayWe can't thank Fabio and Elena enough for the sensational holiday we have just had in their lovely farmhouse near Monticchiello. The views from the house are stunning both from outside the house and from the pool area. They were also wonderful hosts and all their restaurant recommendations were excellent. We have already decided as a family that we would like to return very soon

Absolutely Lovely
Posted Oct. 6, 2019 on HomeAwayWe loved this property. It was the perfect base for our five day Tuscany vacation. The beautiful old farmhouse was so authentic and the owners were fantastic. They gave us restaurant suggestions and left helpful tips for us to ensure we saw all of the highlights in the area. Our favourite thing was sipping wine on the patio while looking at the amazing view of the hill towns and country scenery. This is the real Tuscan experience!
