아그리투리스모 만나이오니(Agriturismo Mannaioni)

This is in a stunning farmhouse in a fantastic countryside location with incredible views and a wonderful, much appreciated swimming pool. It is very quiet and peaceful, so we could completely relax. The countryside and views are utterly stunning and it was so peaceful relaxing by the pool was bliss. We enjoyed exploring stunning Volterra town (c 5km away, so a drive) in the cooler mornings before the crowds arrived, enjoyed lunch in one of the restaurants and then returned to the Agritourismo for afternoons by the pool. We booked via AiB&B - Double check your booking as the AirB&B photos and description are all for the largest upstairs apartment - which is what our booking was for (Apartment Alloro) but there are 3 other apartments in the building and we ended up being put in Apartment Rosmarino downstairs which is very different and much smaller to the AirB&B ad and does not have a bath. Check which apartment you are going to end up in and make sure there isn’t a mix-up! Do not follow Google Maps to the apartment - other guests did and got very lost. Once you get to the football stadium just follow the (very well signposted) signs all the way to Agritourismo Mannaioni. Beware: the road is unpacked in parts - pretty usual in rural farm locations but just be warned. Unfortunately our apartment’s Air Conditioning stopped working on our last night so we had a very bad final night’s sleep (there was no additional fan) and when we told the owner the next morning she didn’t seem very concerned but we were leaving at 10am. It’s been 34/35 + degrees this summer so this was an important issue. There is a great Coop supermarket at the top of the hill, stock up there, as nothing extra is provided with the apartment apart from a few toiletries, we had to buy-in all our tea, coffee, etc. Overall an incredibly beautiful and peaceful location with a great pool and stunning views - but a mixed experience.

My family of 5 LOVED this place! Clean and comfortable and just so relaxing. We loved visiting Volterra and nearby places during the day and couldn't wait to go back and swim and have drinks on the porch each night. We would definitely stay here again.

Una piacevole scoperta tra le colline di Volterra, grande ospitalità, posto incantevole, appartamento pulitissimo e dotato di ogni confort, i proprietari sono stati gentilissimi e molto disponibili, insomma ci siamo veramente goduti il soggiorno e se capiterà torneremo volentieri in questo posto.

Très spacieux, énorme piscine très propre. Cuisine complète. Beaucoup d'espace. Lieu enchanteur. Attention, le chemin pour s'y rendre n'est pas clair. Il faut prendre par l'avenue Dei Capucccini. À partir de là, il y a des affiches

Abbiamo soggiornato 3 notti in questo casale in mezzo alla natura e agli animali. Il percorso per arrivarci è sterrato ma del tutto fattibile anche per un'auto utilitaria e per una coppia di cittadini di pianura come noi, quindi niente panico. Vi ritroverete immersi nel silenzio e lontani dalla vita movimentata e confusionaria della città ma allo stesso tempo vicino ai borghi più belli della Toscana.
