Description from owner
Description
Situated in a strategic position halfway between Florence and Siena and within easy access of all the most important tourist sites, yet immersed in the quiet of the countryside where the birds sing and in the hot summer evenings the fireflies glow. Far from major roads and motorways the only sound you will hear is the odd tractor ploughing the vines. What better way to spend a relaxing holiday in our mature garden , taking a dip in the large (12X6 m) pool and sunbathing on wooden sun loungers with mattresses, lunching under the shady pergolas or just sipping a glass of wine, or perhaps reading a book under a shady tree.
With both Florence and Siena little over half an hour away by car what could be easier than sightseeing the wonderful art treasures that Tuscany has to offer, returning in the latter part of the day to enjoy a quick dip before dinner in the garden or a foray out to one of the many typical restaurants in the area…..some of which still very good value.
Cottage Polvereto is a semi detached cottage for two. Entering on the ground floor directly from the garden you enter into the spacious kitchen dining area. The kitchen is fully equipped with hob, oven, fridge/freezer, dish washer and washing machine.The sitting area has two divans and a T.V. which receives via satellite CNN & BBC world.There is a round table and four chairs for dining. Upstairs is a spacious double bedroom with en-suite bathroom with shower. Outside is a shady pergola with wooden garden furniture which faces the large (6m X 12m )pool with wooden loungers with mattresses and a shady pergola and umbrellas.
Free Wi-Fi. Fan in bed room. No hidden extras only local tourist tax 50cts per person per day to be paid locally.

“Tuscan perfection”
S.Andrea a Cellole was our first experience of Tuscany. It is tucked away in a peaceful setting on a beautiful hilltop site. It is ideally situated for day trips to the tourist honeypots of Florence, … More

“Ticks all the boxes”
Spent a fantastic 10 days staying at this villa in mid September. Location is ideal within the heart of Tuscany, easy driving to Florence, Siena and Lucca. Situated on a small hill about 5 miles north of Tavernelle, a small town containing a well stocked Co-op supermarket, San Andrea a Cellole commands some breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside. Villa Polvereto is a small villa with a double bedroom above a kitchen/dining room. The stairs between the two is an extremely steep spiral stair that may cause issue to some. The kitchen is well provided with easy to use washer, dishwasher and cooker. There is a large fridge freezer but no microwave. Of course, the highlight of the accommodation is the beautiful pool. Although unheated the sparkling clean water is so inviting. Of course, none of this would be so great without the delightful owner, Adela. Full of great advice and assistance, Adela makes you feel comfortable both in the provision of the well maintained villa and in the friendly welcome and presence she provides. To make this a balanced review, I must mention two small poiwnts. The first is the unexpected proximity of the next door apartment. Thinking we would be secluded, we found the neighbour to be a lot closer than expected. Secondly, be aware that the wifi strength is very poor and only capable of minimal activity. That being said, the Andrea a Cellole Polvereto is a fantastic holiday destination that is in a perfect location, is well equipped and is recommended to anyone requiring a perfect, relaxing Italian vacation.

Response from the owner Thank you Adam and Cristina for such a glowing review. We are hoping that the wifi will be strengthened for next year (been promised), these are the joys of living in the country. Hope to see you both again soon. Best wishes Adela
