QUARANTALLINA - Small agricultural estate situated south of Siena. The property is on a hilltop and dominates the surrounding soft hills of the Val d'Arbia with a 360-degree view. Buonconvento with all facilities, shops, restaurants, bus line to Siena and railroad station is at 4 kms. Montalcino is at 13 kms, Siena is at 25 kms, Firenze is at 85 kms and Roma is at 200 kms. Murlo with its Etruscan museum, Monteoliveto Maggiore, San Giovanni d'Asso, San Quirico d'Orcia and Pienza are all within a 30-minute drive of the farm. The property itself is reached by about 2 kms of dirt track in good condition.
The nucleus of the property consists of two structures: the main farmhouse that is divided into three apartments (this is where Appaloosa and Paint are located), and a separate barn (Quarter). Gardens and lawns surround the houses and there is a shared bean-shaped swimming pool that measures 6 X 14 meters (1.6 meters deep). Near the pool is a delightful pond with ducks and geese.
The young owners are very friendly and they occupy one of the apartments in the main farmhouse year-round. The lady of the house speaks French, English and German and can assist guests with day trips in the region. Her husband, who is an artist, cares for the land personally. He loves horses and has them on the property: the names of the apartments come from his love of American horses.
The main farmhouse also has three suites that can be rented in addition to the apartments. Should you be interested in renting one of the suites, please contact your agent for prices. The suites are composed of spacious double bedrooms (one of them has a third bed and fireplace) with ensuite complete bathrooms with shower stalls. There is also a common room for use by the suite guests.
The owners can organise breakfasts and rustic dinners for guests who request them. Dinners cost 30 Euros per person all-inclusive. Each apartment has satellite TV, washing machine and central gas heating. WIFI is available on the estate. Gas is payable on consumption together with firewood, and there is a baby cot. The apartments are comfortably furnished and original in style and boast wood beamed ceilings and cotto floors. The owner will also rent horses by the hour for rides in the surrounding countryside and he can lead guests on excursions.
