About this property

Villa Bel Sogno - Beautiful View Of Volterra And The Countryside.

Bel Sogno, a "beautiful dream".....we hope you will feel the same way after spending time in our Italian home. We visited Italy 12 years in a row, exploring so many areas of this incredible country. Our favourite place was Tuscany, and after so many years we decided to create our own home away from home. The views captivated us, and after looking at 400 houses on line, and over 25 in person...this was our favourite by a mile! It checked every box on our wish list and the view exceeded anything we had seen. It continues to captivate us... still in love.

Near the ancient hill town of Volterra, surrounded by the green Tuscan countryside is Villa Bel Sogno. Part of Borgo Collevicchi, we are on the top of a hill in the heart of Tuscany with breathtaking views of nearby valleys. This newly restored farm outbuilding contains our apartment. Our apartment is surrounded by landscaped gardens & cypress trees, all reflective of the perfect Tuscan landscape. It has all the modern amenities yet captures the Tuscan feel of architecture and design.

Each of the two well appointed bedrooms has it's own air conditioner to provide comfort during the hot summer nights. To enjoy nature's gentle breezes, bug screens on metal tracks have been installed to allow the double doors to remain open without letting in nature's tiny creatures.

Enjoy beautiful dreams on our pillow top mattresses in both bedrooms. The master bedroom features 2 extra long twin beds that can connect to form a King size bed or be enjoyed separately. The master also has an en-suite bathroom. The second bedroom has a Queen bed. The living room has a pullout queen size sofa bed. There is a second full bathroom available for guests.

The kitchen features a gas stove, oven, dishwasher and full fridge. The apartment also features a washing machine with a private courtyard to air dry your laundry. The entire apartment is on the ground level and has no stairs, easy for small children or guests with mobility issues.

Enjoy al fresco dining under your pergola in your private garden while savoring the panoramic views of Volterra. After dinner, enjoy a glass of wine on the outdoor couch and then take in the sunset from the pool deck.

A panoramic pool makes the borgo an even more special & relaxing place after a day of sightseeing in Tuscany. The pool is open from June 1st to September 30th and is 8 metres by 4 metres.

**Please keep in mind that the listed rental fee does not cover cleaning and the linen fees. For one week up to 6 people, this fee is 100,00 euro payable to the property manager upon arrival. Please contact us for further details.

Beautiful Bel Sogno

We had a wonderful time at Bel Sogno. The apartment is very comfortable, bedding, sheets etc all wonderful quality. Our kids loved the soft blankets. The high tiled ceilings and relaxing colours in bedrooms were very restful. The apartment remained cool even without use of the air conditioning but for added coolness on hot days the air conditioning worked really quickly and well. Plenty of cooking equipment and lots of seating options outside. Sitting on the terrace just taking in the changing colours of the view was beautiful. Dinner at Luigi’s (on site) was great if you prefer not to drive out. We also went to Volterra most days and one morning for breakfast which was gorgeous. The whole surrounding area is stunning to look at. The set up at the pool works well, with each property having their own spot and sun beds. 70% of the time we would have the pool to ourselves - it never felt at all busy. We had 2 children with us (10 & 11) who also enjoyed their stay very much. We visited Siena, Florence and Val de Elsa along with Volterra most days for Gelato! Wish we had stayed a little longer. Our recommendation would be to fly to Pisa rather than Florence. Florence has a short run way and sometimes if it’s windy they divert to Pisa anyway. We flew to Florence but would definitely switch to Pisa next time. We had a great week and would love to come back again.

Beautiful place - old world charm with modern amenities

We absolutely loved our stay in this home. After having spent time in both Rome and Florence, some time here was just what we needed to relax and re-charge. We shopped at the local market and enjoyed cooking in the newly remodeled kitchen with updated appliances. We enjoyed coffee in the morning and took in the beautiful views of the Tuscan countryside around us. The home was also centrally located to give us an opportunity to take some wonderful day trips to places like San Gimignano and Pisa. The owner and property management were very responsive and helpful with anything that came up. We hope we are lucky enough to return here for another visit some time.

About the host

Hosted by Eric & Tania Nash

Growing up in Canada, we have been lucky to travel to many wonderful countries. We fell in love with Tuscany over 20 years ago, and after many, many visits decided it was the right time to find a home to enjoy. We love to travel, and have found two places near & dear to our heart. Tuscany, Italy and Northern Ontario.

Why they chose this property

We took our time to research over 400 properties on line and narrowed it to 25 properties to tour while in the region. This was the first property we saw, and set the standard for the other 24 homes that we visited. After a few more return visits, we knew this apartment was meant to be ours. The views took our breath away even on a winter's day in Volterra.

We have stayed in many vacation properties in Italy over the past 20 years and knew we could make this a home away from home for us & others.

What makes this property unique

Scenic views yet 10 minutes to Volterra and 20 minutes to San Gimignano. Private garden & shared pool to enjoy. Wonderful Agriturismo only a minute walk away!
