with pool and breathtaking views Podere Finerri views over the Siena hills Tuscany
Podere Finerri is a 1700�s farmhouse with breathtaking views over the Siena hills, surrounded by fields of wheat, vineyards and olive groves.
Finerri�s olive grove produces organic olive oil.
It is extremely peaceful, beautifully restored and furnished with antiques, ideal for intimate weddings.
It is wonderfully located in Tuscany, 25min from Siena, 75 from Florence. Set just outside Asciano, a little Etruscan and Roman town, where several artistic and historical sites are preserved. Nearby are the noteworthy Abbey of Monteoliveto Maggiore and the Thermal Baths of Rapolano.
The proprietors live on site and are Daniela, an Italian architect, and Malcolm a teacher from New Zealand.
Accommodation Summary : The farmhouse is divided into 5 rental apartments, each one with private entrance and outside area with pergola, table to enjoy meals outside and deckchairs to read a book contemplating the view.
Rach apartment is finely restored and furnished with a style that reflects the true Tuscan heritage.

When I'm caught up in the daily grind my thoughts often escape to the fresh summer nights in Tuscany, the dinners with Daniela and Malcolm under the pergola, accompanied by a good bottle of wine. The peace, the silence, the good company and atmosphere at Podere Finerri mean a lot to me.

o all of you who are looking for a truly unforgettable time off the beaten track in Italy....
I have made "The Lazy Olive" my special place where I go to relax alone to recharge my batteries, to spend romantic weekends and family get-a-ways. I have been visiting the vacation cottaged for the last four years and it has never failed to offer a refuge from the busy and stressful work world. Every time I go I cater my adventure to my state of mind and who I have with me. I have done everything from busy myself with wine tasting and leisurely tours around the castles and tiny towns of Tuscany stocking up on wines, cheeses and salami, going on horseback trail rides through the country, spending hours on end soaking and detoxing at the nearby open air hot springs, dedicating the whole weekend to simply reading by the pool and simply enjoying the view of Tuscan hills and olive groves spanning before my eyes. One time I even took my family there to spend Thanksgiving, complete with a 5 course Turkey and stuffing dinner that the owners, Daniela and Malcolm made possible.
My favourite part is the harmonious balance between fun and repose. Daniela and Malcolm are always helpful and make sure I had information about the sites and towns to visit and anything else I wanted to do (yoga, golfing, shopping) but more importantly, they assure everyone the ultimate privacy to enjoy the kind of vacation that each of us want, from family reunion, to a romantic weekend. Their open-minded and international way of running their vacation spot makes everyone feel at home (not to mention that they have come to meet me by car every single time I have gotten lost trying to find their enchanted location in the middle of the night!).
Each cottage has its own unique flare, complete with travertine marble sinks and showers, French linens and curtains, antique furniture, terra cotta floors and bright but soothing colours. The owners have marvellous taste and thanks to their backgrounds in architecture and design each cottage is filled with a special sense of warmth and love. My favourite cottage is the one with the canopy bed and periwinkle walls with a view over the valley.
Whether you are looking for a relaxing get-a-way, an authentic Italian adventure or a charming place to write a book, I guarantee that "The Lazy Olive" will not disappoint you.

Verified Homeowner
Why is Lupain Holiday Rentals the only holiday rental company to verify the ownership of holiday accommodation? Research has shown that not all advertisers are genuine. There have been cases where people have booked holiday accommodation only to find out it does not exist.
This sort of ‘scam’ is hard to comprehend but these days fraudsters are coming up with ever more imaginative ways of obtaining money by deception from innocent people like you. We do not want holidaymakers who book with us to fall victim to this type of scheme. Money is mostly hard earned we know, so taking a holiday is usually a major expense. In addition, we do not want you to remember us for a shattered dream.
Therefore, in order to protect you we have introduced our Owner Verification Scheme. We ask all holiday home advertisers to submit proof that they own the property they are advertising. Only when we are satisfied that an advertiser and their property is genuine do we add our Green Shield to their property advert. Apart from being a deterrent, it also encourages advertisers to make sure they verify their property, giving you peace of mind when you make your booking.
If you want to make a booking look for the Green Shield on the top right of the property advert, if you do not see our Green Shield it may mean we have not yet completed the verification process. We normally complete this process within a few days if no verification is forthcoming the advert is removed.
We take this Owner Verification Scheme very seriously for your protection. If you have any doubts about the validity of an advert or misrepresentation please contact us with your concerns.
Please note, Lupain Holiday Rentals does not verify the advertisement content placed on this website by property owners, nor do we offer any guarantee as to the correctness of the advertising information placed on this website by third parties.
