Our Aiola farmhouse, Tuscan vacation holiday apartment rental near Siena in Tuscany. It is a sweet house close to Siena, in Chianti Classico and perched on a hill overlooking the vineyards of Aiola, the house is a 16th century farmhouse rental for those that seek a great location and affordability. With its beginnings in the middle ages, the six comfortable and fully renovated apartments show that the owner has sought to balance history, authenticity and charm with modern comforts you seek today. I love the character of these old places: stone walls and timber ceiling with handmade furniture, the wood, iron and stonework. The quality of the apartments match the expectations of a traveler seeking the true Tuscan experience, while seeking affordability. The swimming pool (6x12 m.) has been landscaped in harmony with the surrounding countryside.
The Aiola House is a comfortable, tranquil old house in a lovely location - we are sure your stay will be a memorable one.

Vagliagli is a typical Tuscan village set high on its hilltop with views stretching for miles over the surrounding countryside. It grew up around the fortified castle of Aiola, an outpost of Siena, during the endless conflicts with its great rival, Florence. It is now a small cluster of houses 12 km north of Siena, with an excellent restaurant, some food stores and a post office; the main road between Siena and Florence is within easy reach. LÕAiolina is situated just outside the village.
The region of Tuscany, lying between the ancient cities of Florence and Siena, is one of the most beautiful place in Italy and indeed in Europe. It is a landscape of rolling wooded hills, of olive groves, vineyards and cypress trees, and its extraordinary character has remained unchanged for centuries. The hilltop villages and castles date back to the twelfth and thirteenth centuries; the later villas set amongst groves of cypress and pine, were built by wealthy citizens of Florence and Siena to escape the heat of summer. The climate is infact very agreeable from April to October. Today, the Chianti hills remain unspoilt, and are world famous for their wines. They provide the discriminating tourist with an ideal base to enjoy the art centres of Florence, Siena, Volterra and San Gimignano and to discover the timeless pleasures of a region which was the cradle of the Renaissance.
