PPodernovo di Monticiano is a traditional Tuscan-style holiday Villa with private swimming-pool. The Villa is divided into 5 holiday apartments. One large apartment occupies the first and second floor of the left side of the building and sleeps up to 10 people. A smaller one, on same floor and opposite to it, sleeps 2 people. Three apartments occupy the right part of the building and sleep respectively 2,3,4 people. The Villa can comfortably sleep up to 21 people (a maximum of 31 with extra beds).
The accommodation is completely self-contained, with equipped kitchenettes and ensuite bathrooms. All apartments are simply but tastefully furnished and decorated, and have full central heating. The look-and-feel of the whole place is rustic with style, charming and peaceful.
The Villa is surrounded by woods and farmland. The location (450 mt-1500ft above sea level) and the green surroundings mean generally cooler temperatures during summertime.
