Tuscan Villa with Panoramic Views in Montalcino

Villa Ampella La Torre has panoramic views of the Val d'Orcia. Our home has three bedrooms, two full baths and a half bath. Ampella La Torre is the private portion of a restored villa, including a tower bedroom with 360 views. Our home comfortably sleeps six. Our kitchen is newly renovated.

We are located in the tranquil hilltop hamlet of Podere Ampella, which consists of eight other restored villas and a shared community swimming pool. At Ampella La Torre, you can immerse yourself in all of the food, wine, culture, history, people, and vistas that Tuscany has to offer.

Located in the Province of Siena and the Commune of Montalcino, Villa Ampella La Torre is 43km/27mi from Siena and is perfect for exploring nearby historic hill towns, such as Pienza, Montisi, Montalcino, Montepulciano, Perugia, and San Quirico d'Orcia. In the heart of wine country, Ampella La Torre is a short drive to the vineyards in Montalcino and Montepulciano.

Enjoy Ampella La Torre's pastoral setting, yet the convenience of being located just ten minutes from the medieval towns of San Giovanni d’Asso and Montisi, where several restaurants, shops, a grocery, and the Tuscan-Chef Cooking School can be found. Easily accessible by car, Ampella La Torre is 117km/73mi south of Florence and 203km/126mi north of Rome and off the main Autostrada A1.

Villa Ampella La Torre is in a perfect location, if you enjoy hiking, wine tastings, olive oil tastings, taking a scenic drive, going to outdoor markets or festivals, Paleo, relaxing at a Thermal Spa, going on a truffle hunt, taking an Italian language class, dining in authentic Tuscan restaurants, taking a cooking class, or cooking at home after a day of sightseeing.

Our location is ideal, if you plan to spend a few days in Florence or Rome and then head to the country and the historic hill towns of Tuscany. Rent a car at the airport in Rome or Florence or take the train to Chiusi where rental car agencies are also located.

Beautiful Villa in Tuscany
The Villa is perfect in many ways...the kitchen is well-equipped, has a very comfy sitting area, has incredible views and sunsets of the Tuscan countryside from the lovely outdoor patio, and overall is well appointed. Podere Ampella is quiet and peaceful and we really enjoyed our ten nights there. The location is excellent for driving to the major sites, Siena, Assisi, Cortona as well as the small villages that are close by to explore. Our communication with Naomi was superb and she provided excellent instructions and directions to us prior to our arrival at the Villa. We were met by Jo, the caretaker who was super helpful and nice throughout our stay. He made us feel comfortable and shared some of his favorite places to visit with us. We would highly recommend the Villa Ampella-La Torre to anyone wishing to stay in a lovely Villa in the Val d' Orcia area of Tuscany. Thank you, Naomi and Jo for a wonderful stay at your Villa.

Wonderful Tuscany Stay
We were guests at Villa Ampella La Torre in August 2023 and had a wonderful stay. The restored farmhouse is updated with modern amenities but still retains all the charm and rustic elegance of a country manor house. The advertised panoramic views of the Val d'Orcia from our villa surpassed our expectations. The sunsets were glorious. Nearly every evening we admired the fantastic view from our patio with a good glass or two of local wine. We thoroughly enjoyed all the amenities of the villa; the swimming pool was especially delightful after a full day of touring and wine tasting. The villa is conveniently located near several wineries and hilltop towns, and Naomi provided great tips on nearby restaurants, wineries, and other activities. We took a cooking class at the Tuscan-Chef Cooking School in nearby Montisi and highly recommend it - it was great fun learning to make and eating delicious traditional Tuscan dishes. Other highlights were trips to Pienza, Montalcino, Montepulciano, and Siena. One of our favorite winery experiences was at nearby Santa Giulia where we had an amazing tour and wine tasting with lunch. Since our first brief trip to Tuscany 10 years ago, we've dreamed of spending more time in a Tuscany villa. Our stay at Villa Ampella La Torre was everything we had imagined and more. Thanks Naomi!

All 5 star: Naomi, Jo and ALT! Naomi provided great info on places to visit, places to eat, things to do nearby, very helpful logistical info about the place and surrounding area, responded promptly to our enquiries, and there was a basket of local goodies to welcome us! Jo is the guy you want on site. He was there to greet us, fun to chat up, very helpful and thoughtful and he also responded quickly to our enquiries. ALT was everything we hoped for, great accommodations, great location, great vistas. Very wonderful to stay and enjoy ALT and as a base from which to travel to all the beautiful nearby villages, wineries, restaurants, etc. V&M

Beautiful Views!
This area and small community of villas is beautiful. Communication was great before arrival on getting there. Place was very clean and had all necessary amenities and was very spacious for four guests. We loved the patio for afternoon and the pool was refreshing for a late June visit. Our only issue appeared to be that the AC units were not cooling the Villa very well. We slept thru three nights with windows opened thinking that this was “normal”since we were told at arrival that the units were preset and it might take time to cool. It wasn’t until day four that we were told an AC repair person was coming to look at the units but we had not complained about AC. We then realized that it was known that the AC units were not working properly when we got there. That last night we were able to sleep with the windows closed and AC on and was very comfortable. We should have been told upon arrival of the AC situation and not led to believe that the temp inside was the normal temperature. Would stay again but we were disappointed that we weren’t told about the AC upfront.

Tuscan vacation
Beautiful updated Tuscan Farmhouse with gorgeous sunset views. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this villa. The owner Naomi is very prompt in response to reservations with great details. Jo the caretaker is very friendly and gives great recommendations on the area. Enjoyed great wine tasting in local towns. Siena and Florence are not too far for day trips. This is a must stay if visiting the area!

Fantastic experience
We had really good time, surrounded with pure beauty. The location is central to many famous places and we enjoyed visiting them. The villa is equipped with everything one can need for a comfortable holiday. Naomi is a great host who establishes a nice friendly relationship ahead of arrival of her guests. The caretaker, Jo was very kind and always contactable for anything we needed.

Our group of four adults had a wonderful stay! The condo has breathtaking views and is in a perfect location for exploring. We rented a car a visited several cities in the area and also got a feel for the true Tuscan lifestyle in the country villages nearby. The owner is so helpful with planning. We would love to return someday!

Gorgeous Italian Retreat
I fell in love with this place from the photos. From the moment I booked, Naomi the owner made me feel not like a renter but like an old friend that she was excited to have visit. Naomi sent frequent emails all with helpful information about enjoying the area:wine tastings, cooking classes, grocery stores the hours. She really cares about making your trip memorable. This care shows in the property, IT IS BEAUTIFUL! Perfectly decorated with art from local Pienza, gorgeous views from every window, a beautifully stocked kitchen. It was very hot while we were there but because of all the windows and the position of the house the breeze always kept us cool. The pool has beautiful views and it is pristine. We were met by Jo the caretaker who is one of the kindest, loveliest men he made us all feel instantly at home. The patio is perfect we spent so much time admiring the beautiful Tuscan landscape and late setting sun. Bring some sketch books and pencils or paints because you will be inspired after a day of touring beautiful nearby towns to create your own art!
