Podere Aster - Nine Bedroom Villa, Sleeps 22 | Villa in Asciano

Podere Aster is a traditional Tuscan farm which has been carefully renovated to a high standard, and today offers lucky holidaymakers a collection of five beautifully furnished independent dwellings, accommodating up to twentytwo guests. It’s located in the heart of Tuscany, about forty-five kilometres south of Siena and within easy reach of the towns of Asciano and Chiusure, and their local amenities. Podere Aster is surrounded by verdant hills, peaceful countryside and charming villages. The ancient and famous city of Siena is just one hour north-west, or you can travel about thirty-five kilometres south-east to Montepulciano to taste some of the noblest red wines Italy has to offer.
The five dwellings within Podere Aster feature modern, restrained interiors, whitewashed walls and some boast ancient exposed beams, attractive arches, patio doors and plenty of windows, from which you can admire the exquisite views. Each villa option also provides outdoor terraces for relaxing in the shade with a cooling drink, al fresco dining or simply soaking up the sun.
The main house offers accommodation across two floors and is suitable for up to eight people, with four bedrooms and bathrooms, a living room, dining room and fabulous kitchen. The smaller house is ideal for a group of four to six guests, with two bedrooms, three bathrooms and charming living accommodation and kitchen. There are then two self-contained apartments, one on the ground floor and one on the first floor, which suit two to three people. And finally, the self-contained first-floor flat is great for two guests.
All guests at Podere Aster share the extensive gardens and private pool, where secluded corners, sun terraces and shaded seating offer ample opportunity to enjoy your own space, read a book, or sit with a coffee and marvel at the countryside all around. Your private pool is luxurious and indulgent. It’s a great length for swimming and the infinity edge will keep you in the water, just to admire the view. Pick a sun lounger and settle in for a long afternoon’s snoozing and sunbathing in your very own Tuscan retreat.

Location:
The amazing city of Siena (42km) is about an hour away from Podere Aster, and an obvious choice for a day’s sightseeing. The impressive Piazzo del Campo – which hosts the famous Palio horse race twice each summer – is the perfect place to start. Beyond this vast square, you can explore the medieval streets of the historic centre, which is a Unesco world heritage site, climb to the top of Torre del Mangia for magnificent views across Siena’s terracotta rooftops, and visit Duomo di Siena Cathedral. Closer to home, your nearest town of Asciano (11km) lies in the picturesque Creti Senese region in the Ombrone River valley. The church of Saint Agatha dates back to the twelfth-century and leads you into the old town’s narrow streets.
Wine tasting at Montepulciano (35km) is just forty-five minutes away, so start nominating drivers now. The wine tours take you through the medieval streets of this delightful town, and a visit to the cellars will lead you underground. Savour the flavour of the famous noble red wines, and learn more about the history of wine making in this region, and which local dishes make the perfect accompaniment. Tours can be booked for trips out to the vineyards, or simply wander through town from winery to tasting shop.
