About this property
Private Villa with private pool, A/C, WIFI, TV, veranda, pets allowed, close to Montepulciano
A beautiful villa born from the skilful and refined renovation of an old manor house built at the end of the 19th century and situated in a panoramic position on a hilltop overlooking Lake Chiusi. Villa Poggio Falcone is located on the edge of interesting tourist itineraries dedicated to the discovery of the Etruscans and nature. The town of Chiusi is only 7 km away, while Castiglione del Lago and Lake Trasimeno are 13 km away. A few tens of metres from the villa is the 'Sentiero della Bonifica' (Land Reclamation Path), an interesting pedestrian-cycling route that connects Arezzo to Chiusi along the Canale Maestro della Chiana. The route is quite flat and therefore suitable for walks and cycling for the whole family. For nature lovers and birdwatchers, on the other hand, there is the Montepulciano Oasis just 10 minutes away. It won't be difficult to make families with children or groups of friends happy in such a beautiful location, combining interesting day trips with relaxing days around the large private swimming pool (size m. 6x12, depth m. 1.00-1.60 - open from 01st May to 30th September) with solarium equipped with sun beds, tables, chairs and umbrellas. Also next to the swimming pool there are Jacuzzi and Sauna (available during the whole year included in the rental price). Villa Poggio Falcone is immersed in a vast, completely fenced, park of centuries-old trees, where your dogs can run freely. At the bottom of the valley is the railway line that connects Chiusi with central Italy. The well-kept furnishings, good interior finishes, air conditioning and a well-equipped kitchen guarantee a pleasant and relaxing holiday. Nicola the owner will give you a warm welcome and will delight you with breakfasts, lunches or dinners, which you can enjoy directly at home or in the “ristoro” situated at the edge of the garden.

We were a large group of 16 (mostly family). This villa was perfect for us. Long hot days by the pool (which is a perfect size). Everyone had plenty of space in the many cool breezy rooms. Even though we were there in the middle of summer, it was easy to sleep without the A/C, but we had the option.
The kitchen was amazing, modern and had everything we needed.
Easy day trips to Rome, Assisi and Montipulciano. And lots of other beautiful villages.
We ate the most amazing meal at the restaurant that is onsite. Easily the most delicious meal we had while in Umbria/Tuscany.
Our hosts were so lovely and went out of their way to make sure we had a wonderful time.
I’d happily stay here again, and will be recommending this villa to everyone I know.

Villa Review Rating Details
This is a beautiful villa in every sense of the word. It has the long drive approach with young cypress on each side. Beautiful shutters protect rooms from the sun and wind. Additionally, there are rolling screens that move into place so you can take in the beautiful property views and have your windows open. The ground floor rooms have very tall ceilings; the walls are thick and will probably help to keep the house cool when the weather heats up. We stayed the last week of April/first week of May and the weather was spotty: overcast, showery and sun. Our host provided us with fire wood and we had lovely fires in the evenings.
The kitchen is massive and well equipped with lots of dish ware (I believe wedding parties have stayed here) and a large, modern stove and refrigerator. Bedrooms are large with nightstands, closets, etc. All rooms have independent, wall-mounted AC/heat units to keep temperatures comfortable.
Outdoors, there is a beautiful pool (unheated) and a stand alone small building with a large hot tub and sauna. Large windows can be pushed open to really enjoy the outdoors.
The property has fruit trees, roses & well-maintained shrubs. Italian landscaping is a bit more casual than, say, in England, so don’t expect manicured lawns - you’re in the countryside! Plenty of seating to eat outdoors & lounge by the pool. There are sheep on the property which can provide fun distraction for children and a nice photo op for the camera bugs in your group.
We arranged for the hostess to serve our family a private dinner in their beautifully sited small restaurant which is also on the property, along the drive before you reach the house. It was a delicious meal!
Bathrooms have hairdryers. There is a washing machine but no dryer. Laundry lines are provided, fine on sunny days but it may take a couple of days to dry your clothes if it’s overcast.
Bring mosquito repellent as a general rule out in the countryside in Tuscany or Umbria. Or just buy some in your local grocery once you arrive. There are two or three large groceries within about 20 minutes. Lovely hilltop towns (Montepulciano, Orvieto, Cortona, etc) are all worth visiting. Note: many shops are closed on holidays so plan ahead. And DEFINITELY research some wineries for wine tasting. We visited Madrevite and they provided lovely cold cuts, cheeses, olives, etc. with our wine tasting.
We loved our stay!

Wir waren 4 Familien mit unseren erwachsenen Kindern und deren Freunden und hatten zwei unvergessliche Wochen in Poggio falcone.
Das Haus ist extrem großzügig, die Küche ist außergewöhnlich gut ausgestattet und der Garten, der Pool und die Aussicht sind umwerfend.
Die Eigentümer haben uns hervorragend betreut und uns mit allem versorgt, was wir so brauchten: Holz für den Grill in der Küche und den draußen und auch für den Pizzaofen (iincl. dem Schieber für die Pizzen).
Sehr gut war auch das Mehrgängemenü, das sie uns gemeinsamen mit Ihrem Team an einem Abend zubereitet hat.
Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder.

The house is extremely spacious, the kitchen is exceptionally well equipped and the garden, pool and views are stunning.
The owners looked after us very well and supplied us with everything we needed: wood for the grill in the kitchen and outside and also for the pizza oven (including the slider for the pizzas).
Very good was also the multi-course menu, she has prepared us together with your team one evening.
We would like to come again.

Really great villa.
We were an extended family of 16 and enjoyed an amazing week at Poggio Falcone, very spacious and great pool and gardens. Perhaps beds and showers could be improved on. Owners very helpful. Picked figs and plums from the trees for breakfast! Would love to go back.

Villa Falcone enstsprach in allem unseren doch hohen Erwartungen. Die Villa liegt auf einem Hügel mit beeindruckenden Blick in die Landschaft und über den See Lago Chiuso. Das Grundstück ist so groß und hat so viele Sitzecken das es auch in größeren Gruppen möglich ist einen ruhigen Platz zu finden. Dien Zimmer sind ausreichend groß und angemessen eingerichtet. Durch die Bäder en Suite gibt es auch dort genügend Individualität. Der Tisch im Ess/Wohnzimmer ist eine Wucht und bietet Platz auch größere Menüs zu verspeisen. Die Küche ist nicht nur mit einem 5 flammen Gasherd, sondern auch mit einem Steinofen(traumhaft für Pizza) und einem Holzkohlengrill ausgerüstet und hat alle Geräte die man so braucht. Auch die zwei großen Eisschränke waren bei unserer Gruppe sehr nützlich.
Die Hauskeeper waren sehr aufmerksam und freundlich. Auch die Tipps waren sehr hilfreich, besonders der zur Weinprobe.
Zusammenfassend eine sehr schöne Villa mit einem sehr guten Preis/Leisungsverhältnis.
Noch zwei Tips Weinprobe in der Poggio Bertaio und Lunch in Tuscany Divine

Overall this villa is very good value for money. The only disappointing room was the kitchen which is quite small and awkward to use when you have many guests staying at once - it was also too dark. New lighting required please!! :) The owner Manuela and her husband were always on hand to sort out any problems and are very friendly. The swimming pool was great and was very clean. The nearest supermarket is about 10-15 minutes drive so not too bad. All in all, a good week. Recommended.

Poggio falcone liegt in einer wunderschönen Umgebung, das Haus ist sehr geräumig und der Garten sehr gepflegt. Uns hat es dort sehr gut gefallen und ich denke wir werden gerne wieder kommen. Die Familie, die auf das Haus aufpasst ist sehr nett und umgänglich. Es gibt dor 3 Fahrräder, die man sich ausleihen kann. Sehr vorteilhaft: Gas und Strom sind frei, was nicht immer üblich ist in Italien. Alles in allem, ein sehr schöner Urlaub.
