Vacation Rental Description
Casa San Mario is a delightful restored farm house available for rental in Tuscany Italy. It has a luxury sunlit swimming pool with superb views nestling on the side of a hill looking across open fields towards the walled medieval and ancient Etruscan town of Volterra. 
 
The farm house sleeps 10 to 12 people comfortably. It has five bedrooms, three modern bathrooms, two full kitchens, two living rooms and a very large dining room. The patios are surrounded by a Tuscany garden looking out to a typical Tuscany landscape view. The vacation villa is for rental year round except when the owners are in residence. It has central heating and a traditional Tuscan fire place. It is is ideal for spring, fall or winter vacation rentals. 
 
The setting and location is equally perfect for a romantic Tuscany hideaway, a Tuscany family vacation holiday, or a quiet Tuscany villa rental retreat. One of the most popular walking routes in Tuscant passes by the house and Volterra has many modern facilities - supermarkets, many restuarants, and many small shops and bars. It is still very much a working town but fully walled, with one of the finest Etruscan museums in Italy, a cathedral, central piazza and Roman theatre. 
 
This is what some of those who have stayed with us over the last 12 years have written: 
 
"I just wanted to thank you for the use of your villa in Italy in October. We had a wonderful holiday in Tuscany and would love to return sometime. My husband didn't want to come home to Canada... After travelling to Cinque Terre, Pisa, Florence and many small towns, it was always great to come "home" for wine and cheese. Thanks again.  
I am making an inquiry regarding your rental property in Volterra. You may recall that we rented it for two consecutive years about three years ago. Weare now planning another family get-together and the over whelming vote is to go back to your delightful farmhouse La Meridiana di San Mario. We all have such great memories of our time there." 
 
"Wow! We felt right at home in your Tuscan hideaway. Our group had nothing butpositive statements concerning the Casa de Mario. The fact there were comestibles left by the previous tenants, wine on the table, and the lovely Lombardos to see us through our orientation, started us on the right foot. The excellent accommodations and the lovely physical setting of the villa completed the equation…The location of the villa so close to Siena, Florence, Lucca, San Giminiano, Pisa, etc. made travel and visits to these important centers easy day trips. The town of Volterra itself is worth spending 2 days in. There was nothing we could think of to improve upon our stay. Thank you . For being an excellent inn keeper." 
 
"The villa was splendid whether we were on own with the whole house or just using the upper part with the owners downstairs. The pool is pristine and sits on the side of a hill looking over toward Volterra (about 3 miles away). Very private. A caretaker, L, dropped by several times to water and clean the pool --- a very nice guy." 
 
"How can I begin to thank you for sharing your lovely home with us? Everything was wonderful beyond our expectations. We were in awe of the view and tranquility. You have done an amazing job restoring the house with modern comforts and preserving the original design."  
 
"..devo ringraziarla per la stupenda vacanza che ha fatto trascorrere a me e ai miei amici, soprattutto perchè penso che la zona in cui lei ha la casa è una delle più belle che io abbia mai visto in tutta Italia.. ma soprattutto per la casa stessa, spaziosa e accogliente...Il giorno della partenza è stato davvero traumatico, in quanto è stata una delle più belle vacanze mai vissute; oltre alla possibilità di stare insieme, la posizione geografica ci ha consentito di visitare in pochi giorni le città di Siena e Firenze, ma soprattutto Volterra e la stupenda San Gimignano.."
