LEGNAIA (sleeps 8) https://www.homeaway.co.uk/p8669997
FIENILE (sleeps 10) https://www.homeaway.co.uk/p8669998
Borgo la Chiusa was part of an ancient convent just outside the walls of Siena, offering guests wonderful views, peaceful environment and one independent villa and two deliciously restored to detached houses with Siena terracotta floors, stone walls, beamed ceilings and very beautiful finishing touches.
Porcilaia, whose name means pigsty, was converted from the original pigsty of Borgo la Chiusa, part of an ancient convent.
The house sits on the left side of the property and is accessed from a welcoming terraced patio at the front of the house.
Porcilaia is endowed with an open living area, cleverly organised to fit a comfortable sofa and armchairs, a modern kitchen and dining area.
The double bedroom and the twin bedroom sit on the back portion of the house, overlooking the beautiful paved backyard ideal for breakfast in the morning!
Two full bathrooms with shower, one next to the living room and the other next to the double, in the sleeping area.
The outside offers a well kept private garden and a lovely patio equipped with table, chairs, loungers, BBQ and umbrellas for outside eating and relaxing.

The house was wonderful and centrally located. The pool was so nice, the lounge chairs were clean, and the pool water was the perfect temperature to cool off after a day in the Tuscan sun. We shared the pool with a rather large group in the neighboring house, but had it to ourselves for one day before they arrived. The sitting area in the rear courtyard was a great place for lunch or afternoon snacks, and we also enjoyed eating dinner on the front patio. It was convenient to have the washing machine and our clothes dried quickly outside on the drying rack. Francesca was a great host and made sure we had everything we needed. A toaster would be a nice addition to the kitchen. We would definitely stay here again!

Great value for the area! The photos reflect the property accurately. The outdoor areas are spectacular including the patio and pool area. Simone and Francesca were helpful throughout the process with quick answers and great recommendations.

This villa suited us perfectly and Simone and Francesca were standouts among hosts. The beautiful jasmine-laden patio and manicured grounds create such a relaxing ambiance and we loved relaxing by the pool in between visiting regional villages and wineries. Francesca and Chef Vanna prepared us a beautiful and delicious meal at home, such a nice treat from always dining out. We ate simple meals at home and really liked having the washer for our clothes. A Tuscan villa experience yet private although we enjoyed meeting and talking with other personably guests. Will return!

I would stay here again. The property was stunning and beautifully maintained. Fresh flowers awaited us in the unit. The owner quickly responded to my every question. The weather was colder than expected, and when I asked if we could use the fireplace, wood was delivered to the door. They were also delivered when we asked about ping-pong paddles and balls for the table. Gratzie Simone and Francessea.
