Serene location

We had a wonderful week long stay in the Belvedere apartment. Apartment was well equipped and clean with plenty of space for 3 adults and 4 children. The villa is beautiful and in the most tranquil area within a short driving distance to picturesque towns and cities in Tuscany. The pool area was clean and well maintained and we spent a few evenings enjoying the spa facilities. The august weather was beautiful but the lack of air conditioning could be quite uncomfortable in the apartment. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to return on our next trip to Italy

Beautiful location and accommodation

This was the perfect place to spend a relaxed week in Tuscany. The apartment and grounds were secluded and beautiful. It was remote and wild enough that we felt that we had escaped our everyday lives, yet close enough to Siena and San Gimignano that we could drive out in the evenings and experience some night-life. The Fireflies, Deer and Wild Boar made it magical. The home made essential oils, Spa and swimming pool made it luxurious. Would love to come back soon!

Beautiful place

We had a wonderful though relatively short stay at the property. Everything was very well taken care of, the apartment had everything we needed. The Spa is superb, so is the pool and the garden area. Would definitely return for a longer stay. Both communication and booking process were very smooth.

Wonderful location, peaceful setting

We had a wonderful stay in Belvedere in early May. The apartment was sparkling and very large (there was only 3 of us staying). I have never stayed in a holiday apartment which was so well equipped. I think I counted 30 wine glasses! Everything was thought of - there were even food bags and clips. Plenty of fluffy towels, including towels and gowns for the spa. The home-made soap was a nice touch. The apartment was finished to a very high standard - you could tell it was lovingly restored. Whilst it is an old building, it is not too "rustic", though it is furnished with antique wood furniture. The pool was closed when we were there, as it was too early in the season, but I would love to return again to experience it when it is open - it looked fantastic. Nice to walk through the forest, watch the chickens, chill in the hammocks while listening to the birds. Very peaceful. We had the pleasure of meeting Jerome on one of his visits from Belgium and he is so full of enthusiasm for this place. And it really shows - he is constantly making improvements. I really struggled to find any negatives. Two things I'll point out (though neither would stop me from returning): The smell in the apartment was a little unusual. It wasn't unpleasant, but we couldn't place it. We thought it might be from the wood or stone, or a combination of both. That said, we had the windows open most of the time, so we didn't notice it too much. Also, we were puzzled by a "noise" that seemed to emanate from behind the fireplace. It took us a couple of days to realise it must be due to the spa (which is underneath the apartment), as it sounded like a water pump. It was not a disruptive noise, and I only mention it in case it puzzles anyone else! I would love to visit this area again, maybe a little later in the year when the pool is open and the weather is better. I would definitely stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Jérôme GLORIE

My Name is Jerome GLORIE, i love Tuscany where i come and stay since 40 years. I'm 67y, father of 2 daughters. We grow 3,5 ha of aromatic plants around the farmhouse, we distillate them and produce essential oils and hydrosols. I live 1/2 here, 1/2 in Brussels, Belgium.

Why they chose this property

The Podere La Valle exhale a exciting historical smell : 1000 years ago pilgrims travelled the property and rest in a small "hospital" (visible ruins 300m from the house).
In the forest you will see wild boards and roes. Nice views on the Chianti landscape, one of the most beautiful in Europe.
