Set on a private estate just North of Siena and surrounded by acres of woodland, vineyards and olive groves, Podere Rapale is the quintessential Tuscan farmhouse. Newly renovated and decorated with a combination of contemporary and 'country' style furnishings, the spacious living areas and fully equipped kitchen provide for comfortable accommodation in a tranquil setting. A large swimming pool looks out over endless vineyards and an outdoor dining area under a gazebo makes for a perfect spot to enjoy some of the delicious local cuisine on a balmy Tuscan evening. Perhaps the villa's most enticing feature is a separate annex on the grounds housing a sauna room, shower, UVA Sun lamp and a Jacuzzi for 6 people from where you can enjoy the landscapes through huge glass windows. There is also a completely independent cottage building which allows some independence and privacy for two families travelling together.

All those little extras which combine the independence of a villa holiday with the peace of mind of bespoke service can be pre-arranged before you arrive. From private transfers to your villa to your own professional chef, Sanctuary Villas & Apartments is able to provide that extra level of service.
