About this property

Villa Mulinello, secluded, panoramic view over Montepulciano valley.

90m2, accommodates 6 guests. The original building, a 17th-century tower house, was restored in 1990 according to the Tuscan tradition and outfitted with furnishings from the owner's family.
Tucked into the hillside, with perfect views of Montepulciano, the house consists of two floors. On the ground floor, you find a central living room with a fireplace. From the living room, you have access to the three bedrooms: one double, and two twins. One bedroom has an ensuite bathroom (with shower). One bathroom (with bathtub) is separate.
Wooden stairs lead to the upper floor, which features a large kitchen/dining room with a fireplace for barbecuing. Off the kitchen is one of the terraces, equipped with an iron table and chairs.
Another terrace, shaded by a pair of old oak trees, overlooks the valley. Period furniture and decor, belonging to the owner's family, are found throughout the house. There are sun chairs for lounging outside.
The house fully accommodates a maximum of six people. There is wood available for the barbecues, public drinking water, instant hot water, and central heating. Baby cots and high chairs are available.High speed Wi-Fi. Mosquito nets for all windows.
*** THE PROPERTY **
Villa MULINELLO is one of two stone houses on the Capanne di Sopra estate. While the two houses are close, their positioning allows for a totally autonomous stay.
The site is located 1.3 km from Montefollonico and 7 km from Montepulciano, in a secluded and panoramic location, with a wide view of the Montepulciano valley, the temple of San Biagio, the summit of Monte Amiata and the hills of the Val d'Orcia.
To preserve the rural character of the estate, we have chosen not to have a swimming pool.
In the property there are 4 cats, with adequate shelter, well cared for and under veterinary supervision.
The property is accessible only through a private dirt road (about 400 meters from the provincial road) in the peaceful Tuscan countryside, with olive groves, vineyards and woods. There is a reserved parking area.
Guest access
The parking area is at the entrance of the property. Guests have access to the entire house and surrounding yard.

Excellent, a paradise
This house was ideal for me. It is a beautiful house with even more amenities than I required, in an area of spectacular beauty and peace. At night all I could hear was the wind, and the owls. I have been going to Italy almost every year for the past 25, staying in different regions, and my two week stay at Mulinello was one of the best, if not the best. The owners and the housekeeper are gracious and kind and attentive. I adored the lovely cats. Thank you, Michele, Christina and Gabriella, you are the best. I hope to return again with a more reliable macchina.

Outstanding
Villa Mulinello is the perfect Tuscany Villa. It is located 5 minutes from the very quiet town of Montefollonico in a very private and beautiful setting. From the house and the yard on each side of the house you have a picture post card view of the valley of Montepulciano (vineyards orchards, woodlands) with an unobstructed view of Montepulicano. The house is large, comfortable and very clean. The Hosts are most gracious and helpful. You are close to all the Tuscany hilltop cites which you can visit each day and come home to a quiet serene lovely villa at night. I would definitely stay here again.

Idyllic!
This was the perfect place to stay in one of the most beautiful places in the world. I originally thought my husband and I would take day trips, but we never went farther than a 20-minute drive away, electing instead to simply walk to nearby Montefollonico and Montepulciano, run on the local roads, and most often, just hang out at the villa. It was so peaceful just to pull up lawn chairs on the front lawn, enjoy the views and use our binoculars to spot occasional wildlife in the valley below. The views are spectacular, both inside and out! I fell in love with the villa itself - so warm, charming and well appointed with more than enough kitchen supplies to cook up a simple dinner (inspired by the cooking class I took). The host and caretaker were so friendly and helpful, and we loved the very friendly cats!

Phenomenal
My wife and I stayed at this property during our honeymoon and we enjoyed every minute of it. The home is warm and rustic and is in a very quiet area away from the center of Montefollocino and has sweeping views all the way to Montepulciano. We had coffee on the deck / porch and listened to the birds and enjoyed the warmth of the fireplace every evening. The owner was very accessible and helpful. Just a word of caution for those who are not quite as mobile as we are. Parking is away from the house and up a fairly steep gravel hill and it is a very dark walk to the car after dark.

Tuscan dream come true!
The country house was perfect for our two week stay in Tuscany. It was quaint and cute on the inside and the view from the backyard with Montepulciano and the Tuscan hills was stunning. Seeing the sunrise every morning was like a scene from a movie! We really enjoyed our stay and the friendly cats were so much fun to have around! The location was great with convenient access to Montefollonico for grocery runs/ restaurants as well as close enough to take many side trips to nearby Tuscan towns. I will definitely return to stay on my next trip to Tuscany and will be recommending it to everyone!

We bought the property more than 20 years ago. We have done a big restauration work, in several installments. Planted olive trees and more wine. Reshaped the cellar, we make wine and oil for the family and guests, not a commercial production, although under certification procedures. We are retired, an ex computers systems manager and a librarian archeologist.
